Casters Hold
Spirifed Session
Mondoy Evening

Shop. committee reports from 7
S. & T. and Hall China plants fur
nished the spark for an enthusias
tic meeting by Local Union No.
Monday evening. Discussion fol
lowing the reports, found many
taking the floor to air their opin
ion, on clauses in the agreement
which they felt were not being en-.
forced.
A communication from the Lions
Club regarding the sight saving
campaign now being waged by that
group was endorsed and a cash
donation made to this worthy pro-
ject.
At our next meeting on Nov. %
a representative from the Youngs-
town field, office of the social Sc
curity board will be present and
explain the proposed changes in
the present law to come before the
next congress. Every member
should make it a point to be pres
ent at this meeting and hear first
hand, the benefits to be derived
through old-age and survivors
benefit insurance.
A fund raising drive to aid our
brothers in Warrington, w. Va,
has reached $3.50 to date. We hope
to reach the 5000 mark when all
returns are made.
Brothers Don Cooper and
Charles Thompson have until next
meeting the clear up their arrear-
age or face suspension. This no
doubt is an oversight upon the part
of these two brothers, but the local
in enforcing the law, plays no
favorites.
1t is with deep regret we an
nounce the passing of Bro. Harry
Maylone who died recently, follow
ing a lingering illness. AS a men,
ber in good standing, his benefici-
aries will receive the full amount
of death benefits.
Sixth Vice President George
Turner gave very enlightening
talk concerning the old days of
pressing and the pioneering of
casting. He traced the progress
made from the old days and how
it was brought about through the
and cooperation of the
workers, saving the pottery firms
thousands of dollars. His remarks
were we'll received and should be
needed by the younger members at
the trade today.-O. c. a.

|LocoI Union 173
To Nominufe At
Meeting. Nov. II

Frenchtown, n. Am improved
attendance greeted the officials of
Local Union 173 at their last meet
ing, but of course, there is still
room for a little improvement. We
were especially pleased to see so
many of our younger members
present.
After some discussion about new
employees not joining the union, a
motion was passed to have stew
ard appointed who will make a
survey of the plant each month
and make his report to the local.
Former president William Thomp-
son was appointed by the chair
to fill the role. "Bill" has been
working for Uncle Sam during the
war, but since his return to the
shop has been very active in the
local.
1t was also decided to take up a
collection each meeting, the money
to be used by the entertainment
committee for social gatherings
throughout the year. We think this
is fine move and will tend to
promote harmony within our
ranks.
Nomination of officers for the
new term will be held at our meet
ing on Nov. II. Refreshments will
be served following the meeting
and we have the promise of First
Vice President Wheatley being
present, if circumstances will per-
mit.-O c.. ia.

Writer Sees Much
To Be Coined BY
Pottery Exhibit

Labor's greatest show, the
Union Label and Industrial Ex-
hibition, has come and gone but
the memory will linger long, says
r. J. Desmond, Seventh Vice Presi-
dent of the National Brotherhood
of Operative Potters in the follow
ing article sent in to the Herald
this week:
1T is rather difficult to describe
the Brotherhood effort at the St.
Louis A. F. of l.. Label Exhibition.
One hardly knows where to begin.
It's true that over 100000 people
passed through the Exhibition and
many, many thousands more were
turned away. Over 3C0 unions af-
filiated with the A. F. of l.. parti-
cipated by displaying their goods
and services and some of them
were costly and splendid, but the
N. B. of 0. P. show topped them
all by a wide margin. 1t was the
highlight of the whole Exhibition.
at was a golden opportunity to
sell the American people the idea
of Union Label American-made
pottery and we took full advantage
of it. But what is more pleasing
is the knowledge gained from our
experience; the American people
like it. They fingered at our ex-
hibit, marveled at it's beauty and
fairly showered us with questions,
and be it said to their credit the
men sent to St. Louis by our or
ganizatiop were able to answer
those questions.
"We told the story of the Ameri-
can potter, his union, his product
and his industry. Before the eyes
of the people we made the ware
and showed them thousands of
pieces of the finished product.
There was beauty there. Hundreds
of members of the fair sex told
us so, and would have bought
every piece in the display, could we
have sold it. But there was nothing
for sale there. Everything was
awarded to someone luckily enough
to have one of the winning tickets
of the thousands we gave away.
That was a job in itself. AS a
matter of fact on Friday evening,
the fourth day of the show, over
10000 people were in attendance,
all the crew had to quit work and
aid in giving out the tickets to the
clamoring crowd.
"Time after time people wanted
