Decline u. S. Aid
In Strike Row

Washington-(FP) Both the Cen
eral Electric Co., and Westinghouse
Electric & Manufacturing Co., have
turned down the invitation of the u.
S. government to meet with Concilia-
tiOn Director Edgar l.. Warren 10
help solve the strike threat Of 600
members of the United Electrical Ra-
dio & Machine Workers employed in
76 of their plants in 22 states.
The union has threatened strike
unless the two corporations act on the
workers demand for a SO day wage
increase.
Warren said 'I'm afraid its SER
ious situation" and added he saw a
threat to production of such scarce
products as washing machines, toast
ers, refrigerators and radios.
UE Intl. Representative Neil Brant,
commenting on the refusal of GE and
| Westinghouse to meet with Warren,
said Vice Pres h. ID. Spicer of General
Electric, Sin turning down Mr.. War
ren's invitation to discuss the iminent
strike threat in GE's plants arrogantly
defied the governments efforts to
conciliate and mediate the present
wage dispute.
"This is but another proof of the
total Indifference Of GE to speedy and
effective reconversion. This company
has already shown as holding up the
distribution Of electrical appliances
until such time as it could blackjack
the OPA into granting higher price
ceilings"
Touching on the Westinghouse re-
fusal to conciliate, Brant said its re-
ply was no different than GE's. "Here
is company that has been in nego-
tiations with our union since Septem-
ber of this year and has not made an
offer of single penny Increase He
said it preferred to choose later
date for a meeting with Mr.. Warren"
and there is no basis for its belief that
it can indefinitely postpone making
an offer.

Time Now To
Get Busy On
Third PdrtY

Oakland, Calif.-(FP). - Indepen-
dent political action by labor-possi-
/ bly, leading to formation of third
party - is needed now to prevent
workers from having to choose be-
tween Tweedledum and Tweedledee
candidates in the 1948 elections, the
East Bay Labor Journal, AFL news
paper, said in an editorial here.
1.-THE anti-labor trend of the Tru-
man administration strongly hints
that it is about time to begin thinking
about l948 and the presidential race
said the official publication of the
Alameda County Central Labor and
Building & Construction Trades Coun-
/ ellis.
Rapping the Presidents cooling-of
for strikes proposal, the paper called
it utterly fantastic" for the labor
movement "to enter the year 1948 and
be caught in position of choosing
between Harry Truman and Tom
Dewey or between smiling Harry
and that young Republican, Harold
Stassen, former governor of Mime
sofa"
Independent political organization
by labor is an important subject" the
editorial said. at is true that most
workers are not yet prepared for it
but some serious thinking about it
from all sides, and particularly from
the rank and file in the local unions,
can do no harm. Should period of
contemplation and discussion of the
possibilities of independent political
action-a third party-develop into
something really concrete on ma
tional scale, it might hold the balance
Of power in 1948.
"The time to begin considering it,
however, is not in 1947 or l946--but
Immediately. The ground work must
be done first. There should be wide
agreement that independent political
action is the best possible way to get
the job done--to educate the people
not only in the unions, but on the
streets and avenues, in the homes
and shops. 1t calls for really gigan-
tic program"

'Upholds ITU In
Dual Union Fight

Indianapolis, Ind.-(FP)-- Federal
Judge Charles G. Briggle upheld the
right of the Intl. Typographical Union
(AFL) Dec. 26 to expel any of its
members who join the rival, unaffili-
ated Init. Mailers Union.
Cincinnati Local II of the Mailers
Trade District Union, an ITU sub
sidiary, had brought suit to enjoin the
lTU from rcvoking its charter and
kicking out. its individual members.
The local was expelled after it in
dorsed formation of the IMU and
voted it financial assistance.
The injunction was denied on
grounds that the ITU constitution
gives it's executive council the right
to expel members Of dual unionism.
The lMU is regarded by the ITU as a
dual union.
The lMU was formed several years
ago by mailers who claimed their in
terests were not properly represented
by the lTU. Reason IMU members
wanted to retain membership in the
Typographical union was because many
older members had been paying into
the ITU pension fund for years. Now
they stand to lose their pension rights.

Joint recommendation was adopted
that a committee of three from each
side be appointed to represent the two
organizations, to act as Standing
| Committee" having to do strictly with
| sanitation.
The benefits to be derived through
| the formation of this committee cam
not be measured in mere words, nor
:an they be accomplished through the
sole efforts of the committee. They
must have the wholehearted cooper
alton of every member working at the
trade.
Responsibility for getting active
cooperation on the various plants is
vested in plant health committees and
strong active committees are a very
definite must. 1t is extremely import
ant that plants not now having health
committees should organize them at
once as the national committee at
their first meeting set February l, as
the deadline for these committees to
be organized.
The duties and responsibilities of
the National Health Committee is to-
offer constructive advice ror healthful
working conditions in the industry. II
after reasonable periods committee
recommendations have. not been fol-
lowed, then all responsibilities shall be
removed from the committee and the
blame placed equally on the employer
and employees of the respective
plants. IS %
The committee will suggest bylaws
for the various plant committees and
when these are adopted will be just
as much part Of the agreement as
any wage rate, and officials of both
organizations will make every effort
to enforce these rules and regulations.
President Duffy urgently requests
that all local unions throughout the
trade whose members are employed in
plants where health committees have
not been functioning, to take this mat
ter up Immediately and forward the
information to headquarters.

Why is it that, as we go into this
New Year, not many people think OF
the coming years as years of peace
in which we shall build world safe
from war?
The nations that won the war got
together before the shooting ended
and created pattern of world or
ganization for the peaceful settlement
of difficulties.
But so few seem to really believe it
will work!
| Why is this?
Is it, possibly, because for the past
decade there has been war in some
part of the world and people are un-
able to think that actually war can be
ended?
Or has a monumental cynicism got
the world by the throat, throttleing it
so that it doesn't think clearly?
Or, on the other side of the picture,
is the structure of the United Nations
Organization faulty, so that people
can see that the faults are such that
it cannot work?
Whatever the reason is, the world
had better get over being cynical, if
that is the trouble, or they must teach
themselves to think that we don't have
to have war, if decade of war is the
trouble.
But, if the structure of the United
Nations Organizations is so filled with
faults that ordinary people believe it
cannot work, then ordinary people
ought to begin to shout to high heaven
for remedying of those faults.
There is too much glib talk of "the
next war;"
Z Thost that talk about "the next
war" ought to talk instead about the
war to end civilization, if they believe
another war is coming.
For that "next war;, if it comes,
will leave so little that civilization as
we know it will .'perished from the
earth" and not all the cyclotrons in ex-
istence could put it together again-in
our time.
Some folks may think they are So
phisticated when they rattle on about
"the next war;. Maybe they think it's
the Smart" way to talk.
On the contrary, it is either most
doleful, or it is utterly stupid and you
can take your choice. Maybe it's both.
Now look at this: Within foresee-
able time there are only two nations
capable of waging war against the
United States and they are Russia and
