Pickefs Go On
Hunger Strike
In Mass Arrests

Hollywood (FP) - A hunger
strike was declared here by 700
AFL movie studio unionists, jailed
in the biggest mass arrests in U.
S. labor history.
While the unionists were turn
ing away trays of food to demand
that they be released without bail,
the Conference of Studio Unions
called another big demonstration
at the Columbia studios, scene Of
the mass arrests Nov. Is and 16.
A resolution adopted by the jail
ed group, which included CSU
President Herbert X. Sorrell, said
a hunger strike was their "only
possible means of protest" against
being forced to post bail.
Criminal conspiracy" COM
plants against the top leaders of
the CSU were being rushed
through the district attorneys Of
flee. The arrested demonstrators
were booked on charges of violat-
ing an injunction limiting picket
ing, peace disturbance and failure
to disperse.
The arrests came after more
than 5000 pickets, led by Sorrell
and other CSU top figures, sealed
off the Columbia studios in re-
turn to the strategy of mass pick
citing. While police herded about
700 workers into black marias,
other pickets held the line, en-

survey, the federation gave these
complete instructions:
Get the financial report
given to stockholders covering the
first 3 quarters or at least the first
half of 1916 and comparing it with
1945.
2. - Deduct supervisors pay
from total labor costs, thus getting
total wage costs.
3.-Then calculate the cost of a
wage increase and compare it with
the company's net profit before
taxes. Leave enough money to take
care Of taxes, normal divident
payments and reserves for expan-
sion and emergencies"
The federation pointed out that
taxes will be less if the company's
net taxable income "is shared with
workers by wage increase"
Workers are partners with in
dustry and ''have a right to re-
ceive regular reports on operating
results, and when they are treated
as partners, they can give whole
hearted efforts to promote the
success of the business" the fed
Grafton declared.
The AFL made it clear, however,
it does not want industry to show
reports to Communist-dominated
unions. "We resogniZe that it
would not be under Communist
CONTROL" it said.
Constructive policies can be
developed when the union has the
facts about company operations,
the federation said and gave this
advice to unions:
Remember that wage gains
must be earned. See how much of a
wage increase can be wisely paid
now. If it is not adequate, set up
a management cooperation
committee to improve efficiency so
that a satisfactory wage can be
paid. 1t should meet once or twice
a month and concern itself with
production problems, eliminating
bottlenecks, plant safety measures,
care of tools and equipment, pre-
venting waste, and any other
measures that will improve pro-
duction and increase the company's
ability to pay wages"

SALTY O'RCURKE'
 COMING TONIGHT
 AT 2OTH CENTURY

One of the hottest coming attrac- tions to open tonight at the 20th Century Theatre is Paramount's Salty ORourkc,' an Alan Ladd screen sookeroc which already has drawn high praise from high places in Hollywood Alan co-stars with Gail Russell in the pounding story of a. race track classic slated to raise audience blood pressure com ing into the home stretch.
 With Alan in the title role, it's case of the Ladd gunning again for the chance to go straight after finding he's been put on the spot by gambling ring of ruthless killers. Alan gets help from a winsome, youthful school teacher, played by Gail, whose honest love keeps Ladd from straying off the beaten path.
 Bruce Cabot plays the oninous role of big-time racketeer who's waiting for a $20,000 pay-off from Ladd. In order to square the dect. Ladd buys a horse, hires Stanley Clements as his jockey, with Will jam Demarest as trainer. It's a case of beating the deadline date for the pay-off thereafter and the action roars at mad pace right up to the climax, it's said.
 This Salty ORourke" story des- cribes Alan's artful maneuvering in squaring his debt with Cabot. The latter. finding Clements is the sort of jockey who's not adverse to throwing race, tries buying the rider off. Whether it's fondness for a fine animal named Whipper. his loyalty to Ladd or his secret love for Gail Russell, Clements double-crosses his double-crosser and boots Whipper home in front of the field.
