And Stop Dosing Y II Stomach
With Soda and Alkalizers
Don't expect to get real relief from
headache, sour stomach, gas and bad
breath by taking soda and other aka
lizers if the true cause Of your trouble ID
constipation.
In this case, your real trouble is not in
the stomach at all. But in the intestinal
tract where 800 Of your food is digested,
And where it gets blocked when it fails
to digest properly.
Thus, what you want for real relief il
not soda or an alkalizer-you want
something to lubbock" your intestinal
tract. Something to clean it out thor
oughly and help Nature get back on
her feet.
Get Carter's Pills right now. Take
them as directed. They gently and thor
oughly lubbock" your digestive tract.
This permits your food to move along
normally. Natures own digestive juices
can then reach it-and you get genuine
relief that makes you feel really good
again.
Get Carter's Pills at any drugstore-
81. "Unblock" your intestinal tract for
real relief from indigestion.

Adde's Tells
Strike Stand

Charging that bringing forth
red behring's won't aid their
cause. George +. Adde's. secre-
tary-treasurer of the UAW-CIO,
today explained why he is serving
on the no strike" pledge COM
mittee.
Adde's statement was issued
after Walter Reuther. UAW-CIO
vice president, refused to serve on
the JAW committee TO retain the
no strike pledge because Commu-
nists were on the committee.
The statement by Adde's fol-
lows:
81 accepted the honorary po-
sitiOn OF secretary-treasurer Of
the committee because of my
earnest and sincere desire to
maintain the promise we of Ia
bor made to our country and
the commander In chief.
81 am not interested in the
personnel Of the committee only
insofar as how they stand on the
no strike pledge and that they
are members Of the UAW-CIO.
"Laboring and bringing forth
red behring's does not lend sup
port to the efforts OF those who
desire to maintain our pledge"
"It plays into the hands Of
the advocates Of resembling the
no strike pledge.
THE members serving on the
committee irrespective Of their
politics or religious beliefs are
dedicated TO the proposition Of
maintaining the no strike
pledge.
while agreeing with others
on certain issues IL does not
necessarily mean that they can
influence me on fundamental Is
sues on which we disagree,
Adde's concluded.

Smith Connally "Anti Strike Laev" Has Borne Out Prophecy Of Organized Labor

WASHINGTON (LPA) | The Smith-C Connally ''anti-strike" law which organized labor repeatedly told Congress would produce far more strikes than it would prevent, has done exactly that, government officials now admit.
 The act, which provides, among other things, for 30-day cooling off period" after a strike vote is taken, is now called "preposterous, futile and harmfulp even by such a conservative newspaper as the NeqV York Times Oune 19). Other papers have char acterized it as "the most assinine piece of labor legislation ever put on the books"
 Anti-labOr employers who were originally enthused about the law are now wishing some Congress- man would stand up and demand its repeal. They share the dis illusion of the N. Y. Times when it asked editOrially, "Will this pre- pOsterOus law be amended or re- pealed? The chances are slim. Congress is hot and tired; it is un- organized for prompt action and busy with too many things. Few COngressmen seem to understand exactly what the Smith -Connally law dOes," the paper concluded, and no one in particular seems to feel responsible for its results.''

This increase of more than 13OO%o for the first five months alone has not yet been figured in terms of dollars and-cents cost to the NLRB and to the American taxpayers. However, one thing is known; the expense of these strike votes has already bitten so deeply into NLRB's appropriation that the agency has had to curtail much of its work and lay off more than l30 of its employees.
 When we were testifying against this Smith -Connally bill on Capitol Hill," declared one labor leader, I've were pooh-poohed by anti-union em- ployers who wanted to jam it down our throats as an anti-labor measure. A lot of those zanies don't have to read the ". y. Times today to real ize that the law is preposterous. They're just gnashing their teeth when they recall their testimony that this absurd legislation would help bring industrial peace"
 The bill was passed over the vigorous objections of President Roosevelt who echoed labOr's arguments that its effects would be those apparent today.

reconsider its decision.
 I.B.L.U. TAKES ACTION
 At the recent meeting of the General Executive Board of the Electrical Workers Union, a plan was submitted to the International President of that organization rela- tive to securing paid vacations for the members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.
 The General Executive Board of this organization adopted a resolu- tion favoring paid vacations for all members of the I.BE.W., whether these members are working on building construction or any other branch of the industry.
 They further recommended that the Officers of their Local Unions when negotiating agreements, strive to secure paid vacations as a clause in their agreements. The Electrical Workers recognize that while in other fields paid vacations are cus- tOmary-and almost a rule in the building industry very little has been done. The Executive Board further recommended that their delegates 10 the Building and Con- struction Trades Department and to the American Federation of La bOr, insist that vacations with pay for building and construction trades workers become a policy of the Building and Construction Trades Department. Also that both of these higher bodies be urged to give all possible assistance to the building trades workers to secure such paid vacations.
 The members of the Wage Adjust ment Board are representatives of labor, industry and government. So far the labor members were not very much inclined to vote in favor of va cations with pay, although they gave no reason, but if the Building and Construction Trades Department will adopt this as a policy, it will make it obligatory upon the members of the Wage Adjustment Board who are the appointees of the Building and Con- struction Trades Department, to fight for such plan.

Press, As Usual Balloons Strikes For Headlines
Ignores Fact Stoppages Are Well Below Pre- War
 Rate

Nearly 52,OOO,OOO workers were on the job this week, but that wasn't news to the nations big daily papers. All they could see was the fact that 5O,OOO to 8O,OOO were out on strike-not much over one-tentb of l per cent, of the total employed.
 These walkouts got scare headlines ill almost all newspapers of the land, leaving the impression that chaos had broken out in industry.
 Actually, according to union
 and government officials, the
 stOppages were still much less
 than the pre-war rate, many were
 in nOn-war plants, and few lasted
 more than day or two.
 As usual, newspapers placed all the blame on workers for the. disputes. Consolidation Service spokesmen and union chiefs declared that in some instances workers acted hastily, with out exhausting mediation machinery. However, long accumulated griev- ances brought on the explosions" in many situations.
 Bosses Are Blamed
 Many of the walkouts were laid at the door of employers. Some bosses stalled on settlement of grievances. Others ignored seniority rules in lay offs. Still others gave unions the run around on wage demands, or pro voked strikes in an effort to under mine unions for the postwar period.
 Some were called in protest against unfair National War Labor Board wage awards, The biggest along that line was the walkout of 6,OOO truck drivers represented by an independent" union i'm Chic ago. However, the government seized the trucking companies, brought in l5,OOO troops and cracked the strike, after which the "independent" ordered its mem. bers back.
 The Smith, Connally Act. with its strike vote machinery, was also held responsible for some of the contro- versies. That act, by providing means for legal strike elections, has made it harder for international unions to en- force the no-strike pledge on mem- bers of locals, 1t was pointed out.

Green Asks End Discrimination
AFL. President Says Labor Movement Will Not Permit Its Enemies To Split Workers And Destroy
 Their Collective Strength

WASHINGTON, D. C.-AFL President William Green called upon all affiliated unions and all AFL members to fight against racial and religious bigOtry and discrim- ination.
 In an article in the July issue of the American Federationist, MT. Green declared it imperative that tho mandate of the last convention for the establishment of ''indus- trial equality" be carried out. He added:
 ''We must not falter or fail. We must fight to maintain and pre- serve American principles and the American way of life. The faces of all working men and women must bo turned everIastingIy against racial and religious discrimination and in favor of freedom, liberty, equality and democracy"
 Emphasizing the importance of or ganized labor's stake in the elimina- ton of intolerance, MT. Green de- clared
 WEAKENS LABOR
 When and if organized labor pre- dicates membership in any union upon race, religion or ancestry, it is help ing to create potential anti-labor army that can be used by labor-bait- CTS to fight labor unions, weaken labor's collective bargaining power and destroy its effectiveness"
 Another danger from discrimina- tion was cited by MT. Green. He said 1:
 Freedom is essential to the pre-
The union times., 1945-07-07

servation of democracy. When we be- gin to limit it by insisting that it be denied to some because of racial or religious differences, the list of eS4 captions grows until finally freedom for all is ended.
 ''FOr instance, the rights of the worker, his freedom to organize into a union of his own choosing and to bargain collectively for wages and decent conditions of living, are the first to be destroyed if we seek to establish limited free dOm.''
