Unions Agree TO
LMC Garage
Vote Proposals
Continued from Page One

these workers were under the
Teamsters.
Organizational drives of both
IUAW-CIO and lam are pro-
ceeding with the latter union
giving away free memberships
and promising the garage me-
chanics many benefits which
they never before obtained for
them. Beer parties and other
inducements are being held out
to the mechanics who are still
out their two weeks pay for the
time lost when the lam staged
its ineffective strike.
The lam strike gained moth
/ ing in the way of wages or
working conditions and fail
ed to even win an agreement
from the Automotive Trades
Association until after the LMC
had made a recommendation
that the garages be reopened
under pre-strike status.
CIO Is Strong
UAW-CIO is believed to be
strong in most of the larger ga
RACES where mechanics are still
smarting under their two weeks
loss of pay occasioned by the
lam strike. Even in some of
the former lam strongholds
where free memberships and
free beer have been held out as
inducements, the mechanical
workers are still indifferent to
their former organization.
Principal obstacle to lam
success is the fact that the union
neglected to service the garage
employees, failed to get them
wage increases and adjust their
grievances and in many in
stances did not collect dues.
The union merely signed a con-
tract with the garages which
nobody saw except the Auto
motive Trades Association at
torney and officials and the un-
ion business agent who agreed
to the contract terms.
BY far the majority of the
garage mechanics have never
seen their contract, do not know
its terms, did not pay dues or
attend meetings and merely
were members of the union for
purposes suitable to the garage
managements and lam heads.
UAW-CIO organizers in re-
porting the dissatisfaction of the
mechanics see in it a better than
even chance for Local IL to
win the coming election.

tension Service to be set up In
the Labor Department. A close
working relationship would be
maintained with a National La
Dor Advisory Committee which
would work with the Secretary
of Labor in setting policies and
would work with interested col
leges and universities to outline
standards for the program. Sim
liar committees in the states
and carry on educational serv-
ices at the request of local un-
ions and other groups of wage
earners. Federal funds would be
supplemented by contributions
from state funds and from un-
ions and other private organiza-
tions.
The programs will not be ini-
tiated by the federal govern
ment but will be started only
at the specific request of unions
and be based on what union
men and women want to learn.
Labor advisory committees will
participate in the planning and
administration of these pro-
grams. These services would
include schools and classes on
the college campus or in union
halls, exhibits, research, help
with conferences, library and
information services m owing
pictures, forums, institutes.
Serve AS individuals
The Committee for the Ex-
tension of Labor Education Is q
group of so men and women
from the labor movement and
from universities, all serving as
individuals and because of their
interest in workers education.
1T is sponsoring the bill and
acting as clearing house for the
campaign. 1t is hoped
that the bill in an improved
form will be introduced again
in January in both Houses in
Congress. If it is to pass, the
support of organized labor and
other interested groups will be
essential.
All unions should act imme-
diately as follows:
Talk about the Labor Ex-
tension Bill of 1946"-the Of
ficial name of this measure.
Ask your Congressman to
support it.
Write letters describing what
your own union would like to
have in the way of educational
services. Send these letters as
soon as possible to the Commit
tee for the Extension of Labor
Education, 902-A Twentieth ST.,

Editors Note: Did you ever stop to think
what 1t means to be on strike and walking the
picket line for 10 months? That's more than
800 days. Think of 1t! Three hundred days
without q pay check. Three hundred days of
waiting, watching and wondering what the out
come was going to be. Three hundreds days of
growing insecurity hoping that you will not
be forgotten by other more fortunate workers

Discuss PR System
A considerable portion of last
Friday evenings meeting was
taken UP in attacking and de-
Tending the PR system with Eva
Eppstein Shaw taking the strong
est position in favor PR.
MIR. Gosser told the group that
another attempt to eliminate the
PR system was inevitable and
stated that it was his belief that
some other more acceptable plan
should be agreed upon before
the city returns to the old ward
council form of government.
Those who stated their view
against the PR system were
more numerous than those favor
able to it. Vice.Mayor Michael
V. Disable stated his opposition
to PR on the grounds that it led
to rule by minority groups and
expressed the opinion that coun'
cilmen elected could ignore the
wishes to the majority and still
maintain themselves in office.

Howard Crosby said he liked
PR but that neither the plan
advocated by Mr.. Gosser OF

other COP Congressman,
feeling their muscles and de-
Gliding to throw their weight
around, warned that they would
not support any labor-endorSed
legislation. Republican Sena-
tors Knowland of California
and Brooks of Illinois declared
that the Republican majority
would not accept "PAC-draft-
ed" legislation and what they
called without definition, com
pletely socialistic proposals"
Labor leaders said that many
bills including the Wagner
Murray-Dingell health insur-
ance and Wagne r-Ellender-
Taft bills could be axed by the
COP under this plan.
Industrial leaders like Alfred
P. Sloan Jr. chairman of Cen
eral Motors, added fuel to the
anti-labor fire by predicting
wave of strikes to follow an
ticipated wage demands and
asked for legislation restricting
strike activities.
AS the picture cleared in
dustrialists and anti-labor bosses
expressed increasing confidence
that the Republican Congress
would follow their bidding in
enacting anti-labor legislation
and union leaders became more
certain that the chances of the
Wagner Act remaining intact
were growing slimmed by the
hour.

Europe'S Future

WASHINGTON UPA)-The
key to Europe'S future rests
with its organized labor move
