Another delegation headed by
Arthur G. Lambert and Mrs. Wal

Hospital Association, asked the
commissioners to increase the $4
day allowed for INDECENT patients
to $8-the amount allowed by the
Federal government for the care
of wives of servicemen. According
to Mr.. Lambert county patients, of
which he said the hospital cared
for 60@o, cost Suburban Hospital
in 1945, $18,828.86 of which
amount the hospital was reimbur-
sed 1886, representing a loss of
$10,232. The commissioners took
their petition under consideration,
stating that an increase to one
hospital would lead to an increase
to all and represent large sum.
Such action might not be in ac-
cord with regulations regarding
State Aid. 1t was further pointed
out by the delegation that 34% OF
the INDECENT patients come from
outside Bethesda and that the
Community Chest pays $5 a day
for care of such patients. The
Hospital Association is composed
of 1900 members.

Last week the curate in his
parish paper paid the following
tribute to a member of St. Johns
Church, Olney:
"There are many members Of
whom we are justly proud and
whose services have been of great
value to their Church. 1t is our
conviction that the Church will be
strengthened as others follow their
example. We now express our
grateful appreciation to one of
them in particular. For many years
she kept the chancel of st. Johns
Church in order and prepared the
Altar for Communion. During that
long period when it was difficult
to procure competent leaders for
the Church organizations, she held
Offices in several of them, and was
largely responsible for keeping
them alive and active. Of special
note is that she served for twenty
odd years as President of the Wo-
mans Auxiliary. AS new leaders
could be found, she gracefully re-
linquished her offices to them and
continued to serve in the ranks of
the organizations. She can be
counted upon to offer constructive
ideas, to express her thoughts and
opinions clearly and forcefully, and
to accept the will of the
For these and many
other valuable services, our thanks
go to Mrs. j. w. Jones'"

Regional
Views
By Richard Gosser
Director Region 2B, UAW-ClO

I suppose that some people think the union
is too concerned with price control, but recall
hearing a lot of people complaining bitterly =
because of the rising cost of living and knoweo
that everyone is interested in not only making
more money, but in keeping fair share of 1t.
When your union fights against further in
flation of prices, it is making as important
contribution to your welfare as it makes when
it gets you wage increases. It's lot more
spectacular and makes more people happy for
a labor leader to go out and pound table and
demand more money for the workers than 1t is
to try to bring pressure to bear in the proper
places to prevent the rise in the prices of the
things the people must have In order to live
under decent standard.
Whether your union gets wage increases or
aids in preventing the rise of commodity prices
it means the same to your pocketbook. If your
wages 60 up and at the same time additional
price increases are allowed your increase be-
comes meaningless and you are no better off
than you were before. D.
IT, on the other side of the picture your
union because of political pressure is able to
stop the inflationary trend and holds the price
line it is betting the same results as hought
1t were able to get you wage increase.
ALTERNATIVE
AS matters are going now, the leaders of
the unions are being forced to consider again
the alternative of seeking higher wages in the
face of prices which still continue to rise. We
cannot permit prices to increase without once
more going to the employers of America and
demanding and getting our wages raised to the
point where we can live we have the right
to.
We must fight our battle two fronts
First, we must secure the wages we need
Second we must hold the prices on the basic
necessities of life-housng food, clothing and
fuel
1t seems rather ridiculous to hold the price
line on luxury items. If l want a golf club .
go down to sporting goods store and pur -
chase one If I want it and am willing to pay.
the price for it, what difference does it make
il the price is held or not?
Since can't eat a golf club, but can and
must eat food in order to continue living, l
am of the belief that food prices should be
held down within the reach of everyone. The
same should be true of other basic commodi-
ties, rent, fuel and clothing.
That is what we mean when we say that
the price line must be held-that the prices
those things which everyone must have in
order to sustain life must be held below rigidly
enforced ceilings I'm positive that we do not
have golf clubs or any other non-basic COM
modify in mind when ask for a living
wage.
This is the fight of every member of the
to be forced to go through another era OF
strikes and warfare to win what we want and
must have Prices must be held or we will
face another and even more serious national
crisis

From The Desk
OF
Melvin Schultz
President,
Local II, UAW-CIO

The labor contracts which Local No 121
has with its Shops in this Community have
to a large extent been negotiated and signed
providing members of Local No II with in
creases in pay to the extent of 18 812 cents per
hour.
Variations have of necessity occurred For
instance, in some plants, while the General
Motors strike in progress, a token in
crease in wages accepted with an under
standing with management that the difference
between the token increase and the general
wage pattern would be negotiated and paid
following the settlement of the General Mo-
tors strike Practically all managements have
accepted that Labor is here to stay and have
signed Labor agreements with decent work.
ing conditions.
To date there have been only two Manage
ments who have arbitrarily held out In the
hope that they could break up their Union in
their Plant. BY this time, it seems to me all
Managements should be convinced that they
not do this.
Managements in this town, in general, pro-
claim, that they did not want Labor strife.
We of Local No. IL have, also, acceped the
Toledo Labor Management Committee. 1t does
seem to me that if Managements serving on
this Community committee is to be consid-
cred an effective representative group from
the Management side, they should make
better effort for the settlement of the remain
ing contracts so that strife is avoided not only
in he larger Plants, but also in the small
Plants who are part of our Community.
There are quite a number of these small
contracts now in the process of negotiations
and it is quite obvious that these Manage
ments are only stalling to obtain all of the
time element in their favor which they can get.
In at least six cases, at the present time, this
stalling has brought negotiations to critical
point and if continued will no doubt see Labor
strife within the next week or ten days.

Labor Peace

ENSSt $
While we can appreciate the interest
shown bv the members of the Toledo
Labor .Management-C Citizens Committee IN
averting iurisdictiOnal disputes, we would
like to point out that the unions them
selves set up machinery to create and pre-
serve labor peace in this city before the
L-M-C was organized.
For more than one year, peace and
tranquility have reigned in this city ana
the unions have been able to concentrate
on the lob of organizing the unorganlZed
and TO seek and secure wage increases and
other benefits for their members.
And now. because William Green has
made his perennial speech inviting the
CIO to "come home and all will be for
given" some of the members of his union
seem to believe that it is call to arms.
On the CIO side, there are probably
many who would not be averse to good
labor war just to prove their devotion to
their organization.
Calm judgment and the experience
of the past should teach all union men,
bers regardless of their affiliatiOn, that
iurisdictional fights lead to labor wars and
labor wars breed more jurisdictiOnal dis
putes and more wars. Mutual dislike and
suspicion engendered from such unfOr-
tunate conflicts cannot be eliminated
overnight. They remain long after hOstil-
tiles have ended and become the potential
source of more Misunderstanding and
trouble.
For the past year, because of the
peaceful relationship which has existed
between CIO and AFL, both unions were
able to do better job for their members.
Both were able to concentrate on the func-
tiOns for which unions were created, and
no union can exist based upon fighting an
other union instead of the common foes
of organized labor.
Today, labor needs peace and unity
in its own ranks if il is to Withstand the
assaults which are being made upon it in
the political and economic fields. How
can labor succeed in fighting the reaction
aries in Congress if il is engaged in inter
union warfare?
How can labor meet the challenge it
faces in the possible destruction of price
controls and an all out attack upon the
pocketbookS of the workers il ii is vast
ing its strength in battling itself?
Enlightened self-interest should guide
the unions in attempting to preserve the
peace, for only in labor peace can the
workers and their organizations make
progress.
We believe that JAW Director Rich
ard GOsser faithfully expressed the view
point of the majority of right thinking
members of both unions when he said
that labor should fight its common enem-
les and not each other.
With that sentiment in mind and
without establishing any policy of ap-
peasement, the unions of Toledo can con-
tinue TO go along in peace without com
promising their principles or surrenderng
their pride in their organizations.
