SAN FRANCISCO (LPA) -
Fifty pickets, all described as
John Doe, are asked to pay the
General Chemical Co. of N. Y.
a modest $5,0O0,0O0 in a damage
suit brought by the company last
week against the Init. Oil Work
erS Union-CIO Local 518.
All together the company is
furious at the union to the tune
of SIS, 800, ,000-the 100000 after
thought is to be collected in
100000 bites from the interna-
tional union, the local and six
ul.ion leaders.
Basis of the suit is the COM
pany's complaint that the union
struck last Nov. % in disregard
of the 30-day cooling off period
required by the Smith -Connally
Act. The strikers are still out
and their demand for an 1870
wage increase is being negotiat-
ed with a Federal conciliator in
attendance.

Gordon Becomes
IOOoo PAC Shop

Gordon Mfg. Co. Unit of Local
IL this week became the largest
Local IL shop to become 100 per
cent PAC it was announced on
Tuesday of this week by Clem
Holewinski, PAC executive
manager. The shop which en-
ploys $50 was signed up to the
last member late last week.
Frank Molik, Unit Chairman,
expressed his pride in the ac-
complishment of the Gordon
organization saying, "our people
at Gordon have shown by their
action in joining PAC 100 per
cent that they realize the value
of political action for the work
ers. The way they have been
kicking price control around in
Washington should be enough to
convince every worker that what
we need is more political action
to place people in office who
will not take our wage raises
away from us as fast as we get
them"
Lakeside Unit was the largest
single Unit to go 100 per cent
PAC prior to Gordon. Other
Units are preparing to make
their reports according to Mr..
Holewinski who expressed the
belief that a larger number of
shops would join 100 per cent
this year than at any time since
the Political Action Committee
was organized.
Members of the Gordon Com
mittee who aided in the PAC
drive include the following:
Charlie Rodgers, Leonard Bode,
Edward Turski, Gordon Nc
Henry, Russell Finley, Horace
Ards and David Luttrell.

.Stassen

! WASHINGTON, April %
| LPA) = Any hopes that Re-
publican Harold Stass en-
might have nourished for
coralling organized labor's
vote in mis- bid for the White
House took,a swift nose dive last
week when both CIO and AFL
officials denpunced his appeal
L for anti-labor legislation.
A three-point ''labor" program
advocated by the Minnesotan at
Republican convention in
Maine was condemned by union
spokesmen as little more than a
reflection of the notorious Ball
Burton Hatch bill which all Sec
tions of labor opposed last year.
Cuts Own Throat
AFL Legislative Representa-
tive Lewis G.. Hines declared
that Politically speaking, Stas-
sen is cutting his own throat two
years ahead of time. His pro-
posals are practically the same
as the B2H Bill, and, of course,
Stassen is closely.associated with
Sen. Ball whose bill called for
compulsory arbitration.
1t would be interesting to see
one Of these candidates said
Hines, "come out with an intel
Iligent program for labor rela-
tions. Labor relations can't be
Ilegislated but they can be i'm
proved, through such things as
an improved conciliation serv-
ice.
Goodman Agrees
Leo Goodman, Washington
representative of the United Re-
tail, Wholesale & Dept. Store
Employes-CIO, asserted, "Stas-
sen has alienated what little
labor support he had won be-
cause of his progressive program
in other fields. No candidate
can expect organized labor's sup
port when he advocates legisla-
ton that compares with the B2H
bill in its repreSsive anti-union
character.
If Stassen's campaign man
ayers want to turn him down the
road of complete alienation from
the nations working men and
women they've made a splendid
start"
