Chest Drive

Toledo CIO will again aid the
IGreater Toledo Community
Chest Drive which opened Sept
Is according to union officials
Tom Burke, TIUC executive
secretary is representing the
union on the drive committee.
A goal of so per cent of its
quota by Oct. Z was set by the
Employees Division of which CIO
workers are a part. In past
years, CIO has been one of the
largest single contributors to the
Community Chest.
Reports from arious CIO
shops indicated that the drive
was moving along although there
was some doubt expressed in
several quarters that the quotas
would be reached.
Local IL shops reported that
the collections were under way
and that donations were about
on a par with those of other
years. Allen Owen, Employees
Division Chairman, has asked
workers in the plants to pledge
Is or 20 per cent increase this
year because of the increased
cost of operating.
Sounds Keynote
Keynote for the Drive was
struck by Rev. Larman Sher-
wood, blind Humorist-philoso-
pher and pastor of the First
Methodist Church of Rotter.
man Junction, N. Y. who told
Chest workers last week that it
was their privilege to draw the
difference between living and
existing for many people in the
community.
"Unless you Go your civic job
as it should be done, many
individuals and families will be
without health servic ices, the
counseling and the recreational
facilities which they need for
adequate living" Mr.. Sherwood
said.

Reuther
Attacks
Profits

Launching a sharp attack or
the profits which American in
dustry piled up during 1916
without commensurate wage in
creases to the workers, Walter
P. Reuther, Detroit, Information
al UAW-CIO president told "a
union rally here Tuesday night
to flight on the union front, the
consumers front and the polite
al front" if it was to make full
use of its great power.
In his talk, the UAW-CIO
president told of the efforts
which were being made in De
troit, Pontiac and other JAW
strongholds in Michigan to sup
ply union members with food at
reduced costs and said that the
supply had been cut down be-
cause of the activity of the food
monopoly to force food whole
salers not to sell to the union.
Turning to Toledo, President
Reuther said that Local IL did
not attempt to carry out SIM
liar program because the food
dealers had told the union in
advance that it could not cecure
necessary supplies.
Attacks Propaganda
Turning to price controls, the
|UAW head waxed sarcastic in
his treatment of the meat trust
which he said took the food out
of the butcher shops of the coun-
try until it had wrecked price
control.
He said that the radio and
press of the nation had worked
to make the people of the coun-
try believe that prices had gone
up last year because of wage in
'creases and asserted that, ''for
every dollar given in wages, the
profiteers got three dollars in
increased profits"
AS solution to the price
problems of the workers, Presi-
dent Reuther said that the
average worker in the shops had
not yet learned the relation
ship between the bread box and
the ballot box. We've got the
power, but we have never learn
ed to use it. We must use it in
the bargaining, the consumers
and political fields.

Sweden Acts Against
Anti-Semitic Literature

STOCKHOLM (JTA)-Attorney
General Herman Zetterberg, acting
under instructions from the Minis
try of Justice, has filed charges
against Elmer Aaberg, information
ally-known anti-Semite, on the ba-
sis of seven new anti-Jewish pam
phlets just issued.
The literature, which is in Eng
lish, apparently for distribution in
Britain and the United States,
bears the imprint of the Swedish
Anti-Jewish League, of which
Aaberg is the head. The Attorney
General charges that the PAM
phlets violate the Swedish Press
Law, which is part of the country's
Constitution.

American Jewish
Congress Complaint
Causes Change In
Employment Blanks

New York State Commission
Against Discrimination has mott
fled the Commission on Law and
Social Action of the American
Jewish Congress, that Co-Operat-
i've Bureau for Teachers, an en-
ployment agency for the placement
of teachers, has eliminated objec-
tionable questions from it's appli-
cation blanks.
The matter was first brought to
the attention of the State Com
mission by the American Jewish
Congress which complained that
the Cooperative Bureaus appli-
cation blanks contained questions
regarding religious affiliation,
place of birth and church member
ship in violation of the New York
law against discrimination in en-
ployment.
The State Commissions letter
to Commission on Law and Social
Action Director, Will Maslow, de-
clares that as a result of the for
mer's conferences with the Co.
Operative these Objectionable
questions have been removed.
The action of the State Com
mission Against Discrimination,
Mr.. Maslow observed, is in line
with its previous decisions that
employment agencies must comply
with the law against discrimina-
ton even though they serve en-
ployers not covered by the law.

NEW YORK-COl. Julius Klein
National Commander of the Jewish
War Veterans, this week presented
to the national headquarters of the

check in behalf of $50 hospitalized
Jewish war veterans in New York
who have enrolled as sheckel hold
ers of the organization in keeping
with their desire to participate in
the election of American delegates
to the World Zionist Congress
which will be held in 1913.
In announcing the action of the

of America to enroll half million

is now conducting throughout the
