Tuck Orders
Mental Hygiene
Improvements
Tfnfe HosnifnI Chief
State Hospital Chief
Promised Funds. Told
To Enlarge His Stoff
BY the Assoeiated Press

RICHMOND, June 12.-In broad
authorization, Gov. Tuck today di-
rected DR.. J. E. Barrett, State hos
pitals commissioner, to bring the
State mental institutions up to
proper standard and backed up the
order with a pledge that funds would
be available for the job.
He told DR.. Barrett to take imme-
diate steps to employ additional pro-
fessional and auxiliary help required
ito eliminate any unsatisfactory con-
ditions which now exist in these hos
pitals; to establish cleanliness and
proper sanitation; to maintain ade-
quate medical, nursing and attend
ant services, and to make the lot of
the patients generally as satisfac-
tory as possible under present con-
dition."
The Governors directive, con-
tanned In three-page letter to the
commissioner. copies of which went
to the seven members of the Hospi-
tai Board, told DIR. Barrett to recruit
personnel from wherever possible
and to begin a program to qualify
persons suitable for training.
Necessary rates of pay will be
authorized" he said. Such increased
expenditures within reason that this
may require in excess of your funds
will be authorized by me upon re-
quest OF the State Hospital Board"
The letter noted that appropria-
tions for mental hospitals for the
current biennium-from all sources
amounted to about $7,7OO,00O, as
compared with less than $4,000, 900
for the prewar biennium of 1938-4O
and that capital outlay appropria-
tions Of more than 100000 had
been allowed the hospitals for the
six-year period beginning July
l, 1912.
The total authorized for capital
outlay, the Governor pointed out,
amounted to more than the COM
bined total of all such capital outlay
appropriations for the institutions
during the preceding quarter of a
century.
There were number of factors
beyond the States control which
prevented certain steps from being
taken, the Governor said. adding
that it seemed necessary to delay
extensive building programs because
OF almost prohibitive prices in the
building industry" The policy of
waiting for more favorable prices,
he said, would be put aside at the
earliest possible moment.

Ball players and Parents Hailed
To 9th Precinct in Police Drive

planned about the children playing
ball and the police found these chill
dren at it. They are not charged
with breaking windows, They art
charged with playing ball in ar
alley"
yeah" said Jimmie Klotz, they
arrest us. They don't arrest the
big boys Why not?"
Having patrolled In the ninth
precinct" said Pvt. Harmon, Il de
not believe the police there are
afraid of the-big boys"
Purchase of Lot Suggested.
Mrs. Chiacchieri was not at all
satisfied.
Answer me this" she said. what
are you going to do with them?"
Pvt. Harmon said:
TT is up to the parents to provide
play space for youngsters. They
could pool together and purchase q
lot. 1t would not necessarily cost
much. Forty families putting up S.
each would mean 5000 a year. ,(He
said afterward this was his OWE
idea-he had never heard of it being
done).
Mr.. Stogner protested:
These boys should never have
been arrested. I've paid their cat
fare to send them out to Fairlawn te
play ball. We are trying to bring
them up to be good citizens. They
belong to the Scouts and go to Sun
day school"
Order From Thomas Read.
| Pvt. Harmon read an order of the
acting superintendent, Walter H
/ Thomas, stressing the necessity O.
protecting children and warning
them against playing on the streets
He has said to all policemen tina
our contact with children should b.
i friendly; every effort should b,
made to win their confidence" h,
read. THE impression should b.
conveyed that we seek to aid then
rather than restrict their activitie1
or interfere with their recreation.
"Oh, yeah,' said Jimmie Kotz
then why did they scare this littl
kid (pointing to Andrew Chiacchi
eri)? They wouldn't, give us oul
shirts back. We had taken them of
to play. And they told Andy, The.
issue uniforms where you're going
Il want my boys name taken of
the police book at number nine,
said Mrs. Chiacchieri. 1T might bt
used against him sometime aftel
he's grown up and looking for 8
job"
Policeman Closes Case.
Here Pvt. Harmon played his
trump card. He said:
IF the parties are not satisfied
with this informal hearing I car
send these cases to Juvenile Court
for q judicial determination as tc
whether the boys are or are not
guilty"
mo, we don't want that" said the
parents.
Then" said Pvt. Harmon, I'VE
will consider this closed. See to i,
the boys don't play in the alley
again. And, while I know you are
resentful now, I hope you will not
hold this against Mr.. Tuttle. He
showed he was a good citizen by
his willingness OF come down and
back up his complaint.

Pensions
DETROIT. Oct. 8 - nP.

DETROIT, Oct. 8 = LPA)
= The first major pension
plan in the auto industry was
dead last week after men,
bers of the United Auto Work
ers (CIO) employed by the Ford
Motor Co. voted the plan down
by 1882 to 1920.
The s2OO,OOO,OO program was
defeated in favor of an IL " cent
hourly pay raise plus six paid
holidays. The new rate for the
company's 100000 production
employees will bring the scale to
S1.52 an hour, 9 cents above
Ford's nearest competitor. Re-
troactive to May 81, the pay hike
will bring about $100 to each
worker.
UAW Ford Director Richard
T. Leonard said that "any cor
poration executive of the auto
industry who interprets this Geci-
sion to mean that auto workers
do not desire pension and other
social security benefits, is sadly
and dangerously mistaken. Auto
workers chose the immediate
benefits of a strIight wage in.

election pointed out that
Reuther significantly had cap
tured at least half dozen units
that last year were carried by
the forces of Vice-president r. j.
Thomas and Secretary-trea
George Adde's.
One of last weeks highlights
was the action of the Adde's
Thomas-Leonard group in hiring
a professional public relations
expert in Chicago to publicize
their pre-convention efforts to
unseat Reuther. This came less
than three weeks after the exec
utive board, by a 13 to nine
vote, put Reuther under what
his supporters called well of
censorship" by instructing him
to submit all his communications
to the union membership to
Adde's for prior approval.
Earlier seven members of the
executive board denounced the
Thomas-Addes-Leonard group
for the latter's initial attack on
Reuthers report.

Report Progress
In r & r Talks
Two Other Strikes
Remain Deodlocked

Progress in negotiations be-
tween Local IL, Ransom anc
Randolph Unit and the company
management which were re.
sumed this week was reported
today by Walter Murphy, assist
ant to Richard Gosser, UAW
director.
Negotiations which were dead
locked in August were followed
by a strike of the workers on
Aug. 81. Since that time the
employees of the company have
been waiting for the company
management to resume their
conversations with the union
over disputed points. Principal
issues are wages and several
clauses in the contract which the
company seeks to amend.
The first meeting between the
company and union was held or
Tuesday afternoon of this week
in the Hillcrest Hotel with Lloyd
Speidell, Local II recording sec
retary and ward Rediger
from Director Gosser's regional
staff representing the union.
Further conversations were ten
tatively scheduled for today.
No change in the status of the
strikes of employees of the Com
mercial Metals Treating Co. of
Hall Mfg. Co. was reported by
Mr.. Murphy. Both plans have
been on strike since Aug. 81.
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1947-10-10

In this case, industrial relations
men are pointing out as labor
lawyers did three months ago, in
certifying the smaller union
which is not truly representative
of the bulk of the employees, the
company is facing strike. Even
if no strike should occur" said
one union attorney, what sort
of labor relations can the com
pany expect if it's dealing with a
minority of its employees, what
kind of harmony, morale and
teamwork can they look forward
to?"
The New York Journal of
Commerce, big business daily,
was among the employer publi-
cations that admitted last week
that management is baffled over
the question of labor by-passing
the NLRB.
"Those who have dealings with
powerful unions" said the Jour
nal of Commerce, "are inclined
to fear direct union action where
NLRB is by-passed. This means
that where the union is strongly
established its failure to resort
TO NLRB as arbitrator in unfair
practices and representation cases
may lead to unnecessary strikes.
The cost to employers could be
high"
Employers who are concerned
over the threat of a wave of
strikes by militant unions are
wondering" the paper continued,
whether a new law is needed
to compel unions to seek the,
services of NLRB."
