There is nothing of greater Importance to
the union and the American people at this
time than to restore price control.
What has occurred in all sections of the
country rising commodity prices, robbing
consumers for meat and other foods, sharply
increased rents-is even worse than was pre-
dicted by those of us who sought to maintain
control over prices.
Labor can now see what the union has been
fighting for since 1912 when we first began to
insist that prices must be held within limits in
keeping with the wages of the workers of the
country.
We very definitely are not going to stop our
efforts to re-enact genuine price control, but
intend to 60 along with the International
UAW-CIO and consumer and tenant groups in
resisting price and rent increases.
We are committed to a policy of resisting
rent increases and will assist in the formation
of tenant groups to refuse to pay more than
the ceiling prices set by OPA.
MUST HOLD LINE
This union is not going to be satisfied with
constantly seeking higher wages to meet higher
prices. We do not intend to become party to
increasing the inflationary process We demand
return of price controls without the conces-
sions which have been made for several months
past to big business. We will not be used as
the excuse for unreasonable price increases.
The weakness of OPA's surrender to big
business following the establishment of the
1872 cent national wage pattern was never
shown as clearly as now. In granting price
increases, OPA accepted the word of the man.
ufacturerS that such price raises were neces-
sary because of the increases in the wages of
the workers.
On its side, the unions rejected the claims
Of the corporations which asked for price "re-
lief" on the grounds that the corporations were
already making a sufficient margin of profit
to meet the wage demands of their workers.
How can anyone claim that the hijacking
prices now being charged the consumers is be-
cause of wage increases granted to the en-
ployes of the meat paciers, the milling indus
try, farmers or any other producer? There is
no relationship now between the prices which
are being charged and the wages which these
and other industries are paying their en-
ployes It's outright robbery backed by the
congressional leaders of reaction
Anyone with an ounce of brains can now
see what could take place if we did not sta
biize the nations economy. Wages and prices
would never balance and there will be con-
stant struggle involving strikes and industrial
uncertainty which will undermine the welfare
of the nation,
Until price control is restored, the UAW-
CIO will back those who resist the unreason-
able and uneconomic demands of business
upon the American people and will fight to
restore economic sanity to a nation whose
business men have gone crazy for profits.

Our First
Duty
BY Ruth Taylor

You can't hold another fell
low down in the ditch unless
you stay down there with him.
l know that saying of Booker
T. Washington's has b e n
quoted until it is threadbare.
But there never has been a
time when it wasn't true. Or
truer than il is today.
Only as we consider the
good of all, can we attain en-
during prosperity, security and
happiness. We admitted this
fact while we were at war.
Why can't we admit it in
peace?
Most of the things troubling
us today are the result of at
tempts of individuals or groups
to get for themselves alone,
what even though 1t is justice
are the rights of all. Only
when we consider as individ-
uals--or as a nation-what is
good for all, can we have last
ing good for any. Our first
duty is TO be fair to humanity.
SLUMS
Slums in a community mean
a breeding place of epidemics
which strike far and wide.
Fire hazards are danger to a
whole town. Lack of parks
and Fairgrounds spawn delin-
quent children and start crime
waves. Low wages and high
living costs hit the pocket
books of all those who sell
goods. Lack Of educational ia
cilities means unframed men
and women, incapable Of earn
ing enough to live decently.
Unless all men are trained
for work, both of hand and
mind; un less all men are
taught TO think clearly, and
are able to look ahead to a
liyable future, the nation will
be prey to epidemics of isms,
of false doctrines, of uuack
economic theories. Gladstone
said: National injustice is
the surest road to national
downfall "
Only as we all work to-
gether for the common good,
can there be any good. The
way to get equal opportunity
for all is to work together, in
stead of to fight each other.
After all, social justice is
nothing more nor less than the
application of the Golden Rule
to the affairs of daily life. In
childhood we all had to COM
NIT this rule to memory. Now
as grown men and women let
us commit 1t to lifel We can
not escape our duty,

OF

Local II, UAW.CIO

Since the first of July, 1t has been most
interesting to observe the reactions of the pub
lie to the ending of OPA Newspapers have
been full of accounts as to what Congress is
doing or expects to do and giving reports on
what is happening in various parts of the
Country.
AS for myself, one of the most interesting
happenings occurred when purchased a hot
dog on Monroe Street, slightly beyond our
City limits, which cost me 16 cents 1t is not
so long ago that have yet forgotten that a
good many of my meals consisted of a couple
of hotdogs and cup of coffee. At that time
the hotdogs were cents This is about a
800 per cent increase in the retail price and,
of course, there must have been a profit
made when they were selling hotdogs for
cents
The incident above may be small in itself;
however it does reflect the change in the
cost of living in an outstanding way Labor,
also, allowed a Is per cent adjustment under
the War Labor Board under Wage Stabiliza-
ton. 1914 cents per hour, and this together,
at best, would be from 80 to 35 per cent
increase.
Now producers, as it has been reported,
have been opposed to Government subsidies.
Yet, with OPA out of the picture, you would
believe by the radio announcements that they
had been always in favor of these subsidies as
they are certainly using them as their excuse
for further increasing their prices.
recognize that the cost of War was tre-
mendous and that probably the only way of
liquidating the excess burden of this cost is by
an expansion of currency. However, just an
expansion of our currency for the citizens of
our own Country will not help the average
worker in the long run as eventually foreign
imports and the catching up of production
domestically will produce a competitive situa-
tion which will give America worst depres-
sion than has ever previously been expert
enced l think it is high time that the rep
resentatives of the people look farther into
the future for the welfare of America and its
citizens instead of just from election to
election.
The investigation of war contracts which
is now being brought up proves an inadequacy
of our so-called Democratic System of Gov
ernment. Instead of giving representatives
immunity from this or that, 1 think ways and
means should be devised to put greater
check upon their activities, as we'll as, to
create greater amount of security for them,
thereby increasing the possibility of truly
representative Government
The fight on the OPA revival is good
public demonstration for the benefit of the
people as to who should be reelected and who
should be defeated in the coming elections.

SHoRTSIGHT

BY its omissions and COM
missions, business is commit
ting a crime against society.
But it is not on this basis that
we approach corporate in
terests, because these crimes
against society have been COM
mitted before without qualms
of conscience on their part.
1t is from their own selfish
standpoint that we suggest to
them that they get busy and
set the wheels of progress
spinning. If they do not, the
government will do 1t for
them not the one we have
now, but the one we are 60
ing TO elect very shortly.
(What shakeup is needed!

edness must be chloroformed
and laid to rest. In their stead
must be resurrected initiative,
humaneness and vision, the
three bears of the postwar era

There is nothing of greater Importance to

time than to restore price control.
What has occurred in all sections of the

served so faithfully and well.
When workers are compell-
ed to strike, the kept press
raises a hue and cry about the
damage done to the public
welfare. When the industrial
lists strike against the people
no such hue and cry is raised.
The abundance and variety OF
meat now obtainable at fancy
prices is concrete proof of the
fact that the recent meat
shortage" was nothing more
or less than a strike of the
meat trusts against the people.
Without the OPA there is one
weapon left to the consumer.
We can refrain from buying
anything except what we ac-
tually must have in order to
live. All of us should buy
only what is absolutely nee
essary until goods are avail
able at reasonable prices.
The consumers are not or
ganized effectively. Conse-
quently the wealthy interests
take advantage of us. We must
use the most sacred gift de-
mocracy can bestow if we are
to defend our interests. That
gift is the right to vote.
We will soon be facing the
1946 elections. 1t Is important
to elect liberal thinking people
TO office, but legislative pro-
gram, designed to improve the
living standards of the people
is equally important. The Ma
tional CIO-PAC is sponsoring
a legislative program for 1946
which will advance the well
fare of the people. In addition
the Lucas County CIO-PAC Is
sponsoring a legislative pro-
gram which will provide
greater social security safe
guards.
The main points of this pro-
gram are-1) Provision to
amend the unemployment
compensation law to provide
for payment of 809o of the en-
ployees' wages during the
whole period of his unempoly-
ment, ~ Provision for regular
wages being paid on the six
legal holidays, uSt as most sal
aried workers receive now, )3
Provision that unemployment
compensation shall be paid to
the claimants during labor dis
putes, and Al removal of the
various restrictions VIII ich
have often prevented payment
of unemployment compensa-
ton through no fault of the
claimant.
The above legislative pro-
gram will go a long ways to
improve the welfare of the
working people of Ohio.
Whether we succeed in getting
legislation passed in the inter-
ests of the wealthy minority
depends on how successful we
are in getting out the liberal
vote.
To succeed in this an effec-
tive Ward and Township or
ganization is required. To
make such an organization ef-
fective we need a large and
active membership in PAC.
Membership in the Lucas
County CIO-PAC is only one
dollar per year. If you are not
