Supply Unit NeVs

Notice: All members who
have been laid off should i'm
mediately make application for
unemployment compensation.
Attention Foreman Weber:
You are using only part of STD.
Use the D part at once and pay
attention to DR.. Holbrook.
Joe Biscay Is touring the
South during June. Looking for
place to retire. Look out for
hookworm.
Notice: To all Unit members
That union card you are carry
ing would be a better looking
card if it had more attendance
holes punched in it. And you'd
be a lot prouder of yourselves
too. Please make more sin
cere effort to get acquainted
with your union. Attend meet
ings. Join PAC and get into the
spirit of the thing.
Frank Williams lost large
keyring full fkeys. It's impor-
tant that the finder return same
at once so Frank can get his
boots out of the locker in time
for the winter weather.
One thing about foremen is
that they don't get paid over
time. That's another advantage
of belonging to the Union. Be
sides foremen are more likely to
become heels of the week than
the average worker. We have our
heels, of course but they don't
seem as big as the foremen who
are heels.
If the foremen would use the
brains that the good Lord gave
them they wouldn't need those
Institute letters the company
sends them every week.
Don't be surprised to see some
of the old timers back on the
Job. You know the guys who
Father Time labeled with that
20 number. This should be the
case of where it isn't 30 wher
you become 10.
Since our chairman and your
columnist don't have to laundel
the smokeStack during our close
down this column will probably
appear anyhow.

Here's the folks, folks.
Irene Smith really turned out
to be a fairly good ear-flopper.
(That's better than being a flip
flcpper.)
Just furnish Roy O'Dell with
a little lubricant for his throat
and he will surprise you with
his fine tenor voice. In goes the
lubricant and out comes the
song.
Know the guy who can do IT
better? Knows where to find it
quicker, can do it oftener, etc?
Ever see him running around
the shop? What do you mean,
gravy?
There is a rumor f o a n 6
around the shop that Joe Sym
czak is boarding beer and splr-
its by purchasing them both by
the case. Going off the deer
end?
If that guy who has been win
ming all the check pools doesn'
soon break down and set EN- up
we will print his name here sc
his wife will know he is holding
out on her too.
Maybe one of the reasons why
John Grant refuses to remove
his hat is to prevent us from
seeing the marks from the roll
ing pin on his bare pate.
There's a guy in our shop whC
brings a pair of ducks that turr
out to be hens, and his dog ha
cross breed litter of pups. Tha
makes him the goat?
Then there's another guy whc
takes his son with him when h,
goes out of town on union busi
ness so the kid will vouch fo
his stories.

Union Men Ask
CO Amnesty

NEW YORK, June 10-(LPA)
"A request to grant amnesty
for conscientious objectors i'm
prisoned during World War II
was addressed to President Tru-
man last week by more than 100
members of AFL and CIO un-
ions, railroad brotherhoods, and
unaffiliated unions from all Sec
tions of the country.
Recalling that "the American
labor movement after World
War l led the campaign for am
nesty for conscientious objectors
and other political prisoners,
their letter to the President said
1--WE are reaffirming a high
tradition of organized labor"
More than 2600 conscientious
objectors are still in federal pris-
ons with sentences up to five
years, the letter pointed out.
Among the 100 signers was
Victor Reuther, educational di-
rector of the United Auto Work
ers-CIO.

The Standard
Bulletin
Local 497-Standard
PrOducts-POrt Clinton

PORT CLINTON, OHIO, June
10th. - The latest of several
back TO work movements at the
Standard Products Co. plant
failed miserably this morning
when not single employee of
the Company appeared for work.
Even company foreman, who as
late as Saturday night boasted
that the strike had been broken,
failed to put in an appearance
at the plant gates themselves.
A check of the business places
here revealed that most of the
small business men were whole
heartedly in support of the
striking employees and were in
terested in seeing the employees
terested in seeing them win their
fight.
1t was the opinion of most of
these business men that the
UAW-CIO was in the town to
stay. They were sure that in
creased buying power among the
local residents would also show
larger returns for their various
business. Only two people, one
a bank teller, the other a hotel
employee thought it was Grim
inal for the Union to insist that
the company reinstate seven dis
charged employees and pay a
substantial wage increase.
Local residents who are en-
ployed at the Standard Products
Plant, have been on the alert
throughout the strike. Realizing
that their interest in the COM
pany (jobs) was being leopard
lied by a journalistic jackass,
who tried to outdo Hitler in his
dissemination of hate in his at
tempt to incite some people to
break the strike, turned out en-
masse on the picket line early
this morning determined that the
plant would not be opened and
their efforts to obtain a fair set
tlement lost.
The militancy of the workers
was rewarded. The plant will
not be opened until the com
pany signs an agreement with
the Union, which may happer
early this week.
There is some thought among
Union members of sending ar
open letter of thanks to the Gun
Totin Editor of a local news
paper for his assistance in keep
ing the plant closed for the pas
Is weeks. 1t is reported tha
sales of his newspaper hit ar
all-time high because citizens o.
Port Clinton were rushing to buy
them, as soon as they were or
the street, wondering what other
Improvements he could make or
!; Hitler's efforts.
This Screwball graduate of The
kindergarten of journalism, witt
his labor-hate so freely dissent
mated in his editorials, has beer
of immeasurable help to the Un
ion members in the town. On
thing is certain, if he went to al
that trouble to break the strike
for free, brother he is really ;
sucker. He should have received
good price for it.

Strond Bills Twin Feature
 TuVReV, Garfield
 Tep muVdev mysiegy

Lana Turner and John Garfield are currently seen on the Strand screen as the ill-fated lovers Of James M. Gains much-dlscuksed novel. The Postman Always Rings Twice"
 This tragically powerful tale Of a man and woman who are driven to desperate measures to achieve their love offers rewarding roles to both stars. Miss Turner meets the chal- lenge of a penetratinsly emotional characterization with a great per- formance. while Garfield offers a portrayal that may be of interest to the next Academy Award com- mittee.
 With swift. decisive strokes Direc. tor Fay Garnett lays open his plot Of the entanglement Of two young people whose love is frustrated by an unwanted. middle-aged husband. Miss Turner is Cora Smith who has married the unimaginative Nick. proprietor of a roadside restaurant, in order to achieve security. Gar field is the good-natured. attractive and easy-going Frank Chambers who takes a temporary job with Nick.
 The attraction between the sm0uldering Cora and Frank Is ir- resistible. and their mounting pas- sion inevitably finds its outlet in q plot to do away with the unwanted Nick. How this is achieved. the rec sultant murder trail. and the hatred and suspicion which this crime oi passion engenders between Cora and Frank builds up to q surprise climax and q stirringly ironic retribution. ?
 Cecil Kellaway is the piodding and naive husband. and a effective supporting cast also includes Hume Cr0nwyn as the shrewd defense counsel. Len0 Ames as the relent- less district attorney, and Audrey T0tter as a waitress.
 The companion feature is "Ren- degyOus 2s" with William Gargan.
