Presidents Richard Gosser and
John w. Livingston:
'"The delegates to the 18th
Convention of the UAW-CIO, in
electing us to the top leadership
of the union, have reposed in
us a high confidence. In our

conscious of that faith and shall
not betray it. We are sensitive to
the fact that the decisive ma
jority we have been given in the
UAW carries with it commen-
surate responsibility to use that
wisely. We regard our
election as a mandate from the
men and women in the shops to
work together in the pursuit of
their best interests as workers,
and citizens.
"Our election is more than a
personal victory, more than an
endorsement of a slate of candi-
dates and vindication of a
point of view. We regard it, in

Stassen Rejects
Senator Ball

WASHINGTON, Nov. It
.nPA = The split between
presidential hopeful Harold
Stassen, and the man he ap-
pointed to the Senate on Oct.
IA, 1910, Joseph Ball, became
even more marked last week
when Stassen refused to endorse
Ball for reelection next year.
Stassen, whose disagreement
with Ball on labor issues is de-
tailed in his recently published
book, Where / Stand" would
only say that it was "too early
for him to make any comment
on Balls candidacy. He pointed
out that there has been specula-
ton as to others in the Republi-
can Party running"
In his book Stassen related
that when he testified on the
Taft-Hartley bill, Balls question
ing drought out publicly the dis
appointing differences in position
which l had found in talking
with him"
Although Stassen approved the
aft-Hartley law as a whole he
disagreed with some sections of
it and was definitely opposed to
Balls proposal to break up large
international unions by prohibit
ing industry-wide bargaining.

(LPA) - Hatchet.wielding scabs
were the newest strike breaking
device used last week to break
the two-month old strike of the
United Packinghouse Workers
CIO against Musser & Co. al
Wells, MINI.
After the company was denied
District Court injunction that
would have virtually banned
peaceful picketing, executives of
the firm attempted to place four
strikebreakers in the plant. The
union prevailed upon the scabs
to stop work and leave the
premises.
AS the four were being es.
corted from inside the picket
lines, one of the scabs attacked
pickets with a hatchet he had
carried from the plant. Two of
the others, also brandishing
hatchets, joined in the attack
while the fourth fled. 1t was a
miracle, according to UPW of
ficials that none of the pickets
were injured.

cepting the mandate of the con-
vention which selected him by
an overwhelming majority al

pressed his sentiments relative
to his new post in a statement
to the TOLEDO UNION JOUR
NAL.
Vice President Gosser'S state
ment follows:
Like my fellow officers who
were elected by the Atlantic
City Convention, want to ex-
press my sincere thanks to those
who made the great victory pos
sible-the delegates to the con-
vention and the people in the
shops who selected them.
'I assure every member OF
our union that / not only accept
the mandate of the convention
in a spirit of deep humility, but
that I will work very hard to
bring to our union the things
which the convention said the
people in the shops want.
"It shall be my goal to con-
tinue to work for the people in
the shops of Toledo and Region
2-B and to give the new Re-
gional Director, Charles Ballard,
all the help and support that he
may need to maintain the union
in his region in a healthy and
flourishing condition.
Finally, l should like to re-
peat the pledge contained in our
International Constitution that !
shall faithfully perform my du-
ties, so that l may not only gain
the esteem of my brothers, but
what is of even more impor-
tance, the approval of my own
conscience"
