SAM HOUSTON, Texas. -
Time was when you could
pick up your daily newspaper,
turn to the radio page, and
find something more than just
a schedule Of radio programs.
Not long ago there used to
be a guy known as the radio
editor, who served as fore
caster and critic. If famous
guest stars were to appear on
the evenings programs he not
only told you about it, but
usually gave a brief de-
scription of what was to take
place.
For instance, the featured
selections of a concert pro-
gram would be named, so that
music lovers would be sure to
tune in on the program. Or
perhaps Groucho Marx was
going to be the guest star on
the Vallee show, together with
Carmen Miranda. That would
sound like the setup for a
wacky time, so we'd try to re-
member to hear that program.
The radio editor would usu-
ally give us some pretty good
tips on what to tune in. Often
times, his remarks following
a particularly fine broadcast
would prompt us to notice
that program the next time it
was on the air.
Now, as ] say, we read the
schedule and little more.
am not referring to any
particular newspaper. In my
Army travels l have scanned
the papers of many cities

New York, Philadelphia, Fort
Worth, Dallas, San Antonio,
Washington, d. c., Baltimore;
Indianapolis, Jacksonville, st,
Augustine, st. Louis, and
many others. The condition is
universal.

From The Desk
Of
Melvin Schultz
President,
President,
Local II, UAW,CIO

l think that there are few people who
realize why the Steel Industry and General
Motors are opposed to the settlement offered
by the Presidents Fact-Finding Committee.
AS you should already know, the Unions have
offered their acceptance of this report and are
prepared to retreat from the 80 per cent
quested. One of the biggest reasons that
Union leadership has taken this position is to
avoid initiation to get the wheels of produc-
ton into motion so that inflated prices do not
get out-of- bounds. Industry, on the other hand,
would like to force sizeable initiation. In
flation actually only harms the working people
of America as the owners of tangible goods
still have the goods regardless of the value OF
money. The fellow, however, who earns
enough for food, clothing and shelter is faced
with the problem of how to maintain these
essentials of life from twice the present cost
in dollars and cents to many hundred times
the present cost in dollars and cents for the
same items which he has been using in normal
life.
The cost of living, as it is arrived at by
some bureaus taking the 1933-1939 average,
stood at slightly over 100 per cent. These
same statisticians today figure the cost of liv-
ing at approximately 1870 per cent Now, If we
are to assume that wages have gone up ap-
proximately Is per cent by virtue of the
Little Steel Formula, we would then have to
assume from these figures that about Is or IL
per cent is actually what wages should be
raised. In the auto industry, TINS percentage
would amount to about 18 or 1872 cents per
hour. This would not be initiation, This would
be balancing the cost of living with increased
prices according to the figures of one bureau
l realize, however, that these statistics could
not have taken into consideration the money
which was absorbed by black market prices
and other practices which were not completely
stamped out during the war
Labor has been sincere in its efforts and
far too often these efforts and its sincerity
are belittled and beclouded by the vast amount
of publicity put out in relation to strikes. In
spite of the sound and logic reasoning put
forth by labor leaders in our country, sup
ported by facts. supported by impartial boards,
we find that industry will undoubtedly be
granted immediate price relief on rather
broad scale in return for granting wage in
creases. What more can industry want? What
are the aims of the barons of the financial

Lokeside'S Example

Too much credit cannot be given to the
officers and membership of the Lakeside
Unit of Local IL, UAW-CIO, for their ex.
emplary and significant signing up in
political action 100 per cent.
During the war when there were
plenty of jobs, and workers because of
overtime pay were able to make fair
wages, the need for political action did not
seem as great as today when unemplOy-
ment and reactiOnary management backed
by reactiOnary politicians seek to defeat
the just desires of the workers.
II has been truly said that war speeds
up social change, an observation which
takes on significance in the light of what
has occurred since August 1945 when VI
Day ended the more violent phases of the
war.
In five months, the organized workers
of Lakeside have taken an action which
required three years and the inspired
leadership of Franklin ID. Roosevelt to ac.
eOmplish in 1892. They have acted in their
own political interest, keenly aware that
the connection between their economic
welfare and who runs the country is not
accidental nor unimpOrtant.
We congratulate both the workers and
leaders of Lakeside Unit for their wisdom
In seeing the value of PAC, for their will
ingness to prove their support in tan
gible financial way, and their very evident
desire to accomplish with the ballot that
which labor has thus far been unable to
accomplish by the picket lines.

Views
By Richard Gosser
Director Region 2B, UAW-CIO


When President Philip Murray several
days ago charged industry with a plot to de-
stroy the labor unions he was not trying to be
sensational, but was stating what on the face
of it, appears to be united front by industry
against the workers
When we consider that General Motors IL
the largest single customer of the steel in
dustry, 1t is not surprising that steel decides
to go along with GIN in its efforts to defeat
the strike of GIN workers and at the same
time prevent those who would compete with
that corporation, Ford Studebaker and other
independent automobile firms from capitalize
ing on their competitive position.
If it could be shown that this plot of big
STEEL big auto and big electric actually was
planned and carried out, it could very well
become matter for official investigation and
prosecution.
POWER INDUSTRY
Looking at the united front presented by
big industry and its power play to break the
unions and control the economic life of this
nation, the wage fight fades into insignificance
1t no longer is a matter of wages, but matter
of breaking up this terrible scheme punish.
ing those guilty for it and giving America
back to the Americans.
This is matter that no longer is the ex.
elusive concern of the workers, but must con-
Germ every citizen of this country regardless
of whether they are affiliated with a union
or not.
Such condition as now has come to pass
as result of the plotting of big business
should be matter of concern for every think.
ing American. People like Mrs. Eleanore Roose-
welt, progressive clergyman and professional
people, farm groups and all other progressive
people should unite themselves in movement
to defeat and break up this bold power group
which has already showed the country that
it will do anything in its power to throttle
the nation even to the point of bringing it to
its knees
Industry, backed by the financial aid of
the taxpayers guaranteed by the United States
Treasury has used its power and financial po-
sition in power play that must not be allowed
to succeed.
While wages may be the cause of the
present fight between big industry and the
unions, the corporations involved are using
the situation not only to defeat and destroy
unioniSm but to stifle the entire nation. Every
patriotic American, should rise now to decisive
ly defeat this plot to turn back the clock and
place the country under the domination of men
whose instincts are those of predatory animals
rather than man, social being.

WHO CARES?

IndusfriuI Plot

When CIO President Philip Murray
this week charged industry with a plot
designed to wreck the unions, he said what
many people in and out of the unions were
thinking.
Campaigns against the American
people are not new in the annals OF big
business. This is not the first time that
the entire nation has been the victim OF
those who own and control the means
of production required by the people in
order to live.
AS Regional Director Richard GOSser
of the UAW-CIO has pointed out, the fight
no longer can be considered mere rOu-
tine wage dispute, but goes deep into the
very heart of the principle upon which our
nation was founded and for which we
have recently completed bloody and
wasteful war.
These people who are making the en-
tire country suffer as a result of their
desire to destroy the unions are the same
paytriots, who, during the war waved the
flag. called on the workers to speed up
production "for the boys in the fox holes"
and promised everything to the boys.
These are the same super-paytriOts,
who, after winning the support of Con-
Rress in cancelling the income limitation
placed upon them by executive order,
failed in many cases, to comply with the
orders of the War Labor Board when they
favored the workers and only moved when
threatened or actually taken over by the
government
These are the same employers who
never missed an opportunity or mutfed a
chance all during the war to diScredit and
needle labor in an effort to divide the
workers from the men in the armed forces.
These are the great Americans who
stuffed their pockets with high salaries,
big bonuses and profits earned because
American boys, most of them the sons of
the working class, shed their blood and
gave their lives.
AND now comes the ilhal pTooi vi Iheh
fidelity and loyalty to their country and
their government, bold plot and revOlu-
ton against the American people to whom
they owe their positions of power.
Yes, Richard GosSer is right This is
the time for all Americans to rise in just
wrath TO save America for the Americans.
This is the time for all who truly love
their country to remember the words of
Lincoln, "all which Injuries labor, Injuries
America"
In their pride of power, the arrogant
and cOnceited leaders of the powerful in
dustrial power bloc seem to forget one
thing-American defeated their external
enemies. They will not surrender to their
internal foes.

COMPETITORS

II Is quite clear to the av-
erage individual why the
newspaper syndicates are not
favorably disposed to pub
licizing tn cir adverSaries,
when one considers that the
radio has taken Sizeable
chunk of cash from huge ma
tional industries in payment
for advertising But still, the
average person would prefer
to know something about the
evenings programs other than
that they are scheduled TO 60
on the air He Is no. interest
ed in who gets the advertising
contracts, but he does pay
anywhere from three cents TO
a nickel for a paper which he
used to buy for two cents.
Consequently he expects at
least the same features he was
accustomed to receiving at the
old price.
II is getting so that il a per-
son wishes to know very much
about the radio programs of
the chain networks he must
pin his hopes on newspaper
advertisements by the spon-
sors advising him of the de-
tails, such as featured num-
bers, guest stars, etc.
With all the hullabaloo
about free enterprise, it would
be well for its chief propa-
gandists TO demonstrate a few
OF its good points, instead of
showing us how it can be used
against the welfare of the
public. While the newspapers
cut the throat of radio, mil
lions of people sit by and won

ing the war was responsible
for the loss of the radio page.

LYNCH SPIRIT

~ ANSI % AANAA
The lynch spirit is so thick
in the halls of Congress, you
can cut it with a knife, and a
blunt one at that. This time
it's the unions around whose
neck the dominant reaction
ary group in Congress wants
to tie the moose.
Last week two seasoned
veterans tried to tell Senate
Committee that restrictive
strike legislation would only
worsen an already bad situa-
tion. But the warnings fell
on ears that refused to listen
or understand.
William H. Davis, former
War Labor Board Chairman
who was later unceremonious-
ly removed from his job as Di-
rector of Economic Stabiliza-
ton, and William Leiserson,
ex-member of the NLRB and
the National Mediation Board
and veteran arbitrator, were
the brave men who sought to
tell our solons the facts of life.
No dice.
OUTSPOKEN
Since these men no longer
hold official government posi-
tionS, they could afford to be
outspoken in a way which an
office holder cannot. Paul
Herzog, the current NLRB
chairman, begged off from
testifying because as a man of
good sense he was opposed to
the lynch legislation and even
to the Presidents fact-finding
proposals, but it would have
been embarrassing to have
had to say so.
The gist of their obServa-
tions was that anti-Strike leg
islation would solve nothing,
but would add to the bitter
ness of the strike wave. Leis-
erson laid particular stress on
the idea that we were now
reaping the harvest for the
rigidity which wartime wage
policy had introduced into coll
lective bargaining.
What Leiserson and Davis
could have said too-and they
would have been right - is
that this lynch spirit on the
part of Congress is making
big business bolder in hold
ing out against union demands
because they think they can
count on Congress to finish
the job of smashing the un-
ions. 1t is of considerable
significance that all of the ma
for strikes are consistently
long drawn out.
BUSINESS UNIFORMITY
1t is also significant that
there is a remarkable uni
formity in the determination
with which big business is re-
Sisting union demands. There
is more than a coincidence
here. Is it also necessary to
point out at any length that
the governments tax policy
has practically put the Amer
lean people in the position of
subSidizing these hold-out tao
tics by making it more profit
able not to produce in 194S?
There is one big fact that
may block anti-labor legisla-
ton in Congress. And that is
that our legislators are fully
aware that for the first time
in American history, all at
tempts to stir up hysterical
so-called public" opinion has
failed. When the men and
women on the picket lines
throughout the nation are
fighting for decent wages,
they are hitting sympathetic
notes among all people who
have to work for a living,
