Palmer Company To Distribute
 New Invention

A new Palmer company is in the process of incorporation this week. Composed of a group of local business men, the organi- zation will handle the distribu- torship for the Freeman Head bolt Heater in Alaska and the Yukon Territory.
 The new heater, which has been in process of manufacture for only 30 days, will heat the water in an automobile motor to starting temperature in 30 minutes, and at a cost of only four cents day. It is guaran- teed to be safe and will func- tion in Alaskan temperatures as low as 50.
 The new invention is simple to install and becomes a perm anent part of the automobile. Complete installation and oper- ation instructions come with each unit.
 Heaters are available for most makes of automobiles for immediate delivery. An inquiry address to Box co at Palmer, accompanied by model and make of vehicle driven, will supply detailed information.
 A company spokesman said further details and names of the organization personnel will be announced very shortly. Terri torial headquarters offices will be established in Palmer.

Girl Typists Replace Printers
In Getting Out Chicago Papers

even. In printers language, they
Justify"
Left hand margins are, of course,
set in the usual way.
Special electric justifying type
writer's are being used by some Of
the six newspapers. They make the
retype job easier, but they do not
justify automatically. The opera
tor still must know how many extra
spaces each line needs and for this
reason the material must be pre-
typed.
The Tribune has several of the
machines which have a lithobook
type face giving a striking appear
ance somewhat resembling regular
linotype production.
The Tribune also has a number
of ordinary typeWriters to which a
justifying attachment has been
added. They are not electrically
powered, however. The chief ad-
vantage of electric typeWriters is
that they leave an even impression
on the paper.
Used During war.
The justifying typewriter was ex-
tensively used during the war for
service newspapers and pamphlets.
Though somewhat slower than the
standard printing process" the
Tribune said today, 'it produces
copy of comparative legibility, and
in some instances has been found to
be considerably cheaper than limo
type printing"
Spokesman for two other AFL
mechanical unions, which have con-
tinued on the job, said their men,
bers are crossing the picket lines
of the Typographical Union, be-
cause of contractual obligations with
the publishers.
Spokesman for the Chicago Print
ing Pressmen's Union, Local No. 3,
said I'VE have contract that doesn't

living up to the contract" A repre-
sentative of the Chicago Web Print
ing Pressmen's Union. Local No. 7,

April 3, 1948.
I'VE negotiated our agreements
with the publishers for our members

Strike Plans Pushed
Al Western Union;
Final Meeting Set

Fifty thousand Western Union
employees, 900 of them in the
Washington area-went ahead today
with plans for a strike despite
agreement to attend final con-
ciliation meeting in New York De-
cember T.
Strike ballots we're in the mails
today to all locals of the three
unions involved and officials said
the strike could come within two
weeks" if the membership voted to
proceed.
At the same time union officials
said their offer made two weeks ago,
to submit the entire dispute to a
public panel, still stood. The panel
suggestion first came from Federal
Conciliator J. r. Mandelbaum and
the union agreed to accept it, but
the company rejected it.
The Western Union Co. has made
no wage offer at all during the
negotiations, union officials said, and
there appears to be no hope of avoid
ing strike.
Attending the meeting with Mr..
Mandelbaum yesterday afternoon
were Adolph Brungs, head of the
Western Union division of the Com
mercial Telegraphers' Union: Hal E.
Swami, president of the Telegraph
Employees Union, and w. Lee Coo
ney, president of the Telegraph
Workers Union, with their attorney,
Frank Bloom.
The three unions, all AFL, hold that
the company had promised in April
when a 5-cent-an-hour increase
went into effect, that it would grant
a further increase after October l
if earnings were greater than antici-
pated. Reports filed with the FEC,
the union said, indicate that the
company will show a profit of $12,-
100000 this year. Telegraph en-
ployes are among the lowest paid
in the Nation, union officials as
serted.
If the memberships of the three
unions vote a strike 1t may ad-
vance the possibility that President
Truman may, for the first time, be
forced to use the broad powers dele
gated him over his veto by the
Taft Hartley Act to prevent ma
tional emergency.

CHICAGO. Nov. 26.-Chicago's six
big daily newspapers, confronted
with a strike by printers, are tinker
ing with new ways Of publishing
newspaper-and are meeting most
editions.
The click-click of typewriter keys
has replaced the heavy clanking Of
linotypes at the Tribune. The Sun,
Journal of Commerce, Daily News,
Herald-American and the Times.
Girl typists from the newspapers
business Offices have replaced mem
bers of the striking Local Is of the
Chicago Typographical Union, AFL.
The girls can't do the same job
the printers did, but they perform
the same step-in a different way.
Printers set type a column width
line at a time on lead slug, thus
the name of the machine they USE
linotype.
Girl Typists Get Copy.
Now, instead of going to the COM
posing room to be set into type, the
news stories and advertising mate
rial are given to the girl typists.
The Tribune has brought the girls
about so of them-right into its
huge, two-story high newsroom.
They copy the stories on ordinary
letter-siz sheets on smooth white
paper ruled to one or two columns
wide.
Makeup editors paste the news
and ads on large sheets of white
cardboard. Each page prepared in
this manner is photographed on a
metal engraving plate.
From this point, the publishing
process is the same as before the
strike. Each photo-engraved page
is stereotyped, the curved plates are
locked on rotary presses. and the
newspaper is ready to roll"
Only Printers Are Out.
The 1900 printers are the only
employees on strike following a
breakdown in contract negotiations.
The publishers continue unham-
pered at the other steps of news
paper production as the photo
engravers, pressmen and mailers
belonging to other unions are not
on strike.
So the crucial job is being done
by the girl typists.
They have to copy each story
twice. The first time the right
hand margin comes out uneven.
But after each line the typist
notes the exact number of spaces
the line has fallen short of the
right-hand margin. She never ex-
tends a line beyond the desired
length.
Typist "Justifies" Lines.
In copying the story second time
she leaves enough blank spaces in
each line to make the lines come out

Armed Forces Likely
To Request Additional
Funds for Occupation
Ry John A Giles

A request for supplemental ap-
preparation to pay increased costs of
occupation forces is likely to be the
only plea for additional funds by
the armed forces this fiscal year,
it was learned today.
A defense Official while saying the
new occupation funds proba bly,
would be substantial, declined to
make any definite estimate of the
amount to be sought, because the
whole thing is pretty closely tied in
with the Marshall plan and other
foreign aid programs" He added
there are no present plans to ask
for more money for anything else
during the current fiscal period, end
ing June 30, 1948.
The general overall increase in
living costs make the additional
funds necessary for occupation
forces. he said.
In the 1946-47 fiscal year, military
occupation costs totaled $l,513.784,
the Army said. They were divided
as follows: Germany, $617,275; ia
pan, s613,309; Korea, $228,29l, and
Austria. S44,9O9.
The largest proportion of the
funds, $614,300, was for pay. while
maintenance of troops cost $493 800.
The balance of the funds spent
during the 1946-47 period-$405, ,6S4
was for military government and
relief activities.
The Army has no estimate as to
the total overall costs this fiscal
year However. the allotment for
military government and relief was
100000.
The Army has about 100000 off
GERS and men on occupation duties.
A large proportion of the Army's
authorized 1O3,478 overseas civilian
personnel also is detailed to occupa-
Jon work.
Only preliminary work has been
done on the supplemental appropria-
ton for occupation areas.

Denham Is Studying
Taft-Hat|ey Action in
Chicago Printer Strike
By the Associated Press

Robert N Denham, general coun-
sci of the National Labor Relations
Board, said yesterday he is studying
the Chicago newspaper strike situa-
ton to determine whether to apply
for a Taft-Hartley law injunction.
Mr.. Denham was asked by report
ers whether he is considering apply
ing to the Federal courts in Chicago
for an injunction aimed at halting
the strike by local of the AFL In
ternational Typographical Union.
Il am studying the case," he said.
Considering Court Action.
He did not elaborate but David
Finding, NLRB associate general
counsel, said in a separate inter-
view that Mr.. Denham and his legal
staff are considering applying for
such court order under the dis
cretionary powers accorded Mr.
Denham under the Taft-Hartley
Act.
The ITU local began tbs strike
against Chicago's six daily news
papers Monday, eliminating dis
pute over the closed shop provision
the union had enjoyed under earlier
labor contracts. The closed shop
is banned under the new labor law
Mr.. Finding said any application
for an injunction must wait until
after the NLRB acts on unfair labor
practice charges filed earlier with
the NLRB by the Chicago
Newspaper Publishers Association
against Local 16 of the ITU.
Early Decision Expected.
Mr.. Finding said he expects
decision shortly" on whether the
NLRB will issue formal compaint
on the basis of these charges. Such
a complaint recently was issued
against the ITU on national basis,
resulting from unfair labor prac-
tice charges filed against the union
by the American Newspaper Pub
fishers Association.
The section of the Taft-Hartley
law Mr. Denham and his aides are
considering using in applying for
an injunction provides that NLRB
must have already issued a COM
plant before it moves for an in
junction to obtain appropriate
temporary relief"
