Phone Unions
Hold MEETING

WASHINGTON, October 80
(LPA)-Delegates from Al affil-
iates of the National Federation
of Telephone workers, represent
ing 100000 telephone employees
throughout the country, were on
their way to Denver this week
for the NFTW's 18th convention.
The convention is expected to
be historic for the big independ-
ent group because it was seen
as highly probable that the deleI
gates will junk their present.
loose federated organization and
adopt a proposed "One National
Union" constitution which has
been under consideration for
months. The two week meeting
in Denver will also frame 1947
policy for bargaining with the
telephone industry.

very effectively, allowing no
body to enter this week except
vermin exterminator who was
permitted to enter and place rat
poison throughout the premises.
Pickets gave the exterminator
what they considered to be ap-
propriate advice before allowing
him to enter.
Company Starts RumOrs
AS in most strikes where a re-
dictionary management forces the
hands of the union, this one has
developed a company-inspired
batch of rumors which change
from day to day, but which con-
tain the threats that the plant
has been sold, or that 1t will be
moved out of Fostoria.
Commenting on the rumors,
Howard Curry, Local IT'S presi-
dent, said, what would a strike
be without the company's rumor
factory working overtime. May
be they have Attorney Bugbee,
their attorney, dreaming up
some of the things that are now
being circulated around town,
Anyhow, we've heard them all
before, so / guess one more time
won't hurt"
Principal issues in the dispute
are wages and the refusal of the
company to consider the con-
tract under which the union and
corporation have operated since
1871.
Points To Wages
Pointing to the wages paid
to Seneca employees, President
Curry stated that the last raise
given was in August 1941. 1--WE
did not even get the increase al
lowed by the War Labor Board
under the little steel formula, ,"
he said, and then added, "and as
a matter of fact we were cut 20
per cent prior to our 1941 strike.
Actually, we are getting from 13
to II per cent less than we were
receiving in 1941 prior to our
strike. We have not received the
1872 cents given throughout the
entire nation early this year"
Strikers are in good spirits
and are receiving help from 9TH
er UAW-CIO and CIO unions.
The sentiment of the strikers
was expressed by one of the
pickets who said, 1--WE are going
to stay out here until this COM
pany wakes up and discovers
that this is 1946 and not 1918.
If paying the workers what they
are worth is the reason they
won't recognize our union, then
I'm willing to stay until they,
find out that the company has
some public responsibility, too"
Aid has been promised to the
workers and none of the strikers
are suffering any hardship up to
this point.

Protection Advised
Against Typhoid

= "Summer-the season for camp
ing, swimming and outdoor picnics
lis also the season for typhoid
fever" Dr.. R. H. Riley, Director
-cf the State Department of
Health, warns Marylanders who
may be planning country activities.
'1noculation against this disease
is advised now, as part of the pre-
paration for vacations.
"Immunizaton against typhoid
fever can be conferred safely by
the physician, usually by means of
three. shots given at intervals of
one week. Since the profession
lasts about three years, repetition
Of the treatment is recommended
very third year for continuous i'm
n1unity. 1t possible those who
have not been vaccinated against
this disease within the last three
years should take the inoculations
2 few weeks before their outdoor
activities to allow time for immun-
Iity to become we'll established.
"In recent decades there have
been spectacular reductions in the
incidence of typhoid fever as a
result of community efforts to
safe disposal of sewage. Super
vision of known carriers and the
isolation of i'll patients have also
helped to prevent the disease.
Improved sanitation and fewer
cases of typhoid fever should not
however, give anybody a false
sense of security. Personal i'm
munity is still highly desirable
for those who would enjoy the
warm-weather pleasures free from
the threat of disease. Sites chosen
for camping and picnics are often
remote from safe food and milk
or approved water supplies. Clear
and sparkling appearance is no
guarantee that water is safe to
drink, or even to swallow in small
quantities while swimming. Even
in supervised camping areas per-
sons who have not been inoculated
may become infected from some
unsuspected source. Immunization
is, therefore, strongly urged"
