Rain FoiIs To
Mar Attendance
At Local No. 724

A record crowd was on hand for
our meeting Tuesday evening, despite
the heavy rain which occurred just
before the meeting convened. With
conference in the near future, the
members aired all theiri troubles, hop
ing perhaps, to find solution for the
more serious problems.
The decal question still holds the
spotlight, and the girls are dead SER
ious about the 6040 proposition.
Resolutions are coming in fast and
many of them are "chuck full' of
merits. If you have resolution to of
fer, get it in the hands of the commit
tee as soon as possible. Remember, all
resolutions must be passed by the
local before they are forwarded to
headquarters.
Norman Whippler was elected to fill
the unexpired term of Roy Thompson
as a member of our conference COM
mittee.
1t seems some of the plant foremen
are doing all they can to make life as
miserable as they can for the en-
ployees, and the feeling of resentment
over these abuses is reaching a new
peak. The writer is of the opinion that
a copy of the "fair deal' clause of
our agreement should be framed and
hung on the wall in the offices of all
foremen. Perhaps constant reminder
like this would help make them more
human,

BUCK PRICE CONTROL
nam Ad Campaign Cost Near 81 Million Mark

New York - (FP) = The National
Association Of Manufacturers is
spending a conservative estimate of
$95O,O00 on it's current huge pub
licity campaign for abolishing price
control and curbing organized labor,
Federated Press has learned.
While the NAM "group relations
department" was unwilling to tell
FTP the cost of its current series Of
four full-page ads running in 45O
daily and $50 weekly newspapers, ad-
vertising agencies consulted by FP
estimated it as follows, according to
current advertising rates:
Placing the four full-page ads in
$50 daily papers would cost approx
mately $4,000 for space alone. Run
ming the ads in $50 weekly papers
would cost another 100000 and it
would take at least another $4,000
for production of the ads and adver-
tising agency fees.
An NAM spokesman stressed that
the ads were for general educa-
tional purposes" but said: "We don't
quite know what they COST" which
struck FPS advertising consultants
as strange. "They must be ashamed"
they said.
The first ad, Let's Take Stock Now,
was general introduction of the
campaign which has three themes:
"Save production from price con-
troll" "Fair labor relations" and Ere

Firm Cooperating
For A Clean Shop

Paden City, w. Va. = The Health
Committee of Local Union 146 has a
big job facing them here in Paden
City, but the committee is equal to the
task and going about their duties and
getting results.
Going through the shop the other
day a member of the committee spied
one Of the brothers splitting on the
floor. He called attention to the harm
full practice, and the necessity of every
employee cooperating in keeping the
shop clean. The brother after friend
ly warning promised that it would not
happen again.
The firm is placing trash cans
throughout the plant at convenient
places, and the committee urges
everyone to throw their refuse in these
cans.
The part of the agreement which re-
quires workers to keep their own
benches clean has been sadly neglected
here. The firm as we'll as the commit
tee are insisting that Cleanliness be-
gins at your own bench"
We are anxiously awaiting the ar
rival of the X-ray machine so that we
may have our preliminary examina-
tions for receiving the aluminium the
rapy treatments.
Several grievances were discussed
at the meeting, but no action was
taken, pending a visit from some of
our national officials.-O. C. 146.

Business Fine On
Stock Exchange.
Reporter Finds
BY BETTY GOLDSTEIN

New York-(FP).-To get the other
side of the picture of workers or
the picketline, Federated Press spent
a day on the New York Stock Ex-
change to see how Wall Street is
bearing up under the biggest stock
market boom in Is years.
) 1t was the day after Pres. Truman's
wage-price decision was announced.
American finance capital took it calm
ly, not surprised, not disappointed, but
more or less as if price increases were
its portion. A mere 1,780,000 shares
of stock changed hands, amounting
to $86 million. Not sensational COM
pared to the peak three million shares
day hit i'm the last few weeks, but
pretty good compared to the average
daily volume of 743,512 shares in
February 1945 or the low of 129,650
in 1910.
Sounds from the floor of the ex-
change varied between a loud mur-
mur and a low roar as some 800 we'll
dressed brokers trotted back and forth
between the horseshoe shaped trading
posts and the telephone stalls with di-
rect lines to brokerage offices lining
all four walls. The swell of noise was
broken by occasional cheers as the
selling prices projected on niagnified
translucent tickers rose to heights ap-
proved by the brokers, or by refined
boos as they fell.
There was also the click of ordinary
stock tickers and the clack-clack of
steel plates on the two Annuciator
boards in the front and back of the
room summoning members of the ex.
change to go to their booths and re.
ceive messages from their clients. The

Arrangements have been made for
all conferees to stay at the Villa

for Monday, March Is, to prepare for

With this sort of an official cabinet
we feel quite sure that our affairs
from an administrative standpoint
will be in good hands during the COM
ing term. Of course the real test in
any administrations success must be
determined by the way the members
of the local back their officers up,
and | feel sure we can depend on our
membership to do good job in that
respect.
Highlights of the meeting centered
on the wage agreement and prices
established for the various items. 1t
seems far too many of our members
are not familiar with the agreement
rand rather than spend a few minutes
Yof their time to come to local to
familiarize themselves with the neces-
sary information in order to arrive
at fair and just price to be estab-
lished on any new items entering the
trade, wind up agreeing to shop set
tlement which, in the majority of
cases is entirely out of line, and not
in keeping with the standard policy
as provided in the agreement. Evil

statement.

counts. He has some funny ma

fective by a keen sense of timing

sionally becoming almost too spec

A trip to the Brown Derby veri-
fled again what almost every one al
ready knew-that the music of John
Kirby's orchestra is among the best
in its line. Mr.. Kirby and his bass,
plus fine pianist and drummer,
set up a solid rhythmic background
for one of the best trumpets you'll
hear anywhere and sax man who

didn't seem up to par for Kirby

great artist" It is keen spoofing
Of those you can run across in night
clubs who would say it and mean it..
Being man who obviously likes
people, Mr.. Buckley has no trouble
working them into his act without
offending them. Too many brash
performers who like to have help
from the customers can make a
ringsider feel like a fool just be-
cause he does not want to play
straight man to magician or
comic. But Mr.. Buckley is not
one of these. When one of those
he selects for "the great honor" OF
assisting him turns him down, he
just says politely, You, sir, are a
stinker," and passes on. The words
might startle some, but only the
hypersensitive could be offended
even slightly, for the Buckley man
ner is full of good will.
The. PAGES Mr.. Buckley puts his
helpers through are mad ones, but
the laughs are with, not at them.
The other night, A. E. Lichtman,
the theater operator and an impor-
tant figure in civic affairs, turned
up in the Buckley act. Such is the

emerged not only with his dignity
intact, but with the air of man

Is Hero Town
 Tornado Hif

MANKATO, Minn., Aug. 19.-A village policeman was hailed today as a cool headed hero who possibly saved many lives during tornadoes which struck two communities Sat urday night killing seven persons and injuring about 75.
 As the twister approached Wells, Minn., Patrolman Arthur Danks was standing in front of the village theatre. He ordered the theatre doors closed and then asked the 400 patrons in the auditorium to remain seated. The tornado swept along the street, damaging every building. The rear part of the theatre roof collapsed, but no one was injured
 Elsewhere in the town, about 9 persons were injured Many persons escaped by fleeing to basements.
 The seven fatalities were all at Mankato, where a twister dipped momentarily from the sky to com pletely demolish a 22-cabin tourist camp, and damaged several farm buildings. About 50 persons were injured in the Mankato area.

SHANGHAI MARKET PRICES
 BEING ADJUSTED

SHANGHAI, Aug 19.-The ner- vous and confused Shanghai black market adjusted prices late this af- ternoon to conform roughly with the newly established rate of 3,350 Chinese dollars to one American.
 The new black market prices were lined up after hours of wild confusion as the exchange prices jumped and wavered after the in- crease from the former official rate of 2,o20 Chinese dollars to one U. $.
 The principal purposes of the revision, namely to encourage the expert of Chinese goods and cur tail imports and encourage domes- tic production, appeared doomed to immediate failure as retailers with drew imported goods from their counters or changed the price tags to correspond with the new rates.
 Mumblings for increased pay from workers appeared likely to crystslize into formal demands for increases, backed by strike threats

PRICE INCREASES
 ON BREADSTUFFS
 ARE ANNOUNCED

Alaska bakeries have been noti- fled of a new increase authorized in their prices on bread, bread type rolls and cookies, as announced by the Alaska OPA.
 Previous to this latest increase, bread and bread type rolls had been subject to slight rise in cost of productions which bakeries were permitted to offset either by an increase in price or a propor- tionate decrease in unit weight. This alternate procedure will ac- count for the fluctuating weight or price which consumers may have noted in the past two months.
 The new ceilings on bread now represent an additional two-cents on white bread per loaf or per dozen rolls, three-cents on rye, and one-cent on whole wheat = over their June II ceilings. A straight Is percent price increase is simul- taneously granted on cookies, OPA announced.
