The Waterbury Democrat., 1946-11-01

Members of the International Union of Mine, Mill & Shelter Workers, c. I. O., go to the polls Monday to decide the slate of of- ficers which will control the unions policies and administration. One of the most vigorous prediction cam paigns in the unions history is now being concluded, and during it's course there has been a fiery series of charges and counter charges by supporters of the rival tickets.
 The overall Waterbury vote is expected to show strong majority for James J. Leary, now secretary treasurer of the international, who is opposing incumbent President Reid Robinson. Both sides have been campaigning furiously here, with leaflets, rallies, dinners and radio program. The opposing can didates for president have both made several speaking appearances here during the past week.
 Local results will be tabulated after the close of the voting. The certuleQ results, as well as uSeo and unused ballots, will then be forwarded to Chicago, where they will be checked and where the tab ulations on a national basis will be made.
 The campaign against Robinson has been centered on two issues: his alleged Communist sympathies and negotiations for Q personal loan from an employer.
 The Robinson campaign has included charges of failure to CO., operate, made by Robinson and others against the two principal M. M. s. W. leaders here, John j.. Driscol andE John J. Mankowski.
 The fur has been flying but the campaign is almost over. The votes of the members Monday will tell the story.
