The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1947-01-16

Hitler was a piker as a warmon-
ger. Our native warmongers, their
pockets full of atom bombs, tell
us: "We can get it for you whole
sale"
A congressional report recon-
mending that Germany be allowed
to rebuild its war industries to
help fight Russia turns out to have
been written under direction of the
treasurer of the openshop Eastman
Kodak Co.
We suggest our congressman
now assign the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers to draft
labor laws for Germany, and put
Herbie Hoover in charge of put
ting down demonstrations in
Washington and elsewhere of job
less veterans.
Last time the U. S. had a de-
preston the people in their simple
minded way blamed it on Hoover
and the COP, who had been in
power for some time. But the Re-
publicans are planning ahead this
time for the. next depression to be
conducted under their auspices.
The groundwork is all laid for
blaming it on the communists or
the unions.
Inducing men to agree to some
thing is very different from order
ing them to agree" says an editor
ial in the Wall Street Journal {.
This is practically revolutionary
idea on Wall Street.

Tuqboufmen Vote
For Arbitration

New York (FP) = Tugboatmen
in New York harbor voted 995 to
814 Jan. 2 in favor Of submitting
their wage and hour demands to
binding arbitration rather than
striking.
A resolution approved by the
membership of Local 333, United
Marine Division, international
Longshoremen's A ssocia on,
leaves it to operators to decide
whether or not there will be a
strike. If the operators turn down
the arbitration offer, the resolution
specifies that the vote be construed
as favoring a strike.
An alternative resolution indors-
ed by 814 of the locals 1900 mem
bers simply empowered negotiators
to call strike. Membership views
were recorded by mail ballot.
Union demands, which operators
have rejected in more than a
month of negotiations, are reduc-
tion of the workweek from 4S to
40 hours, time-and- a-half for Sat-
urday work and double-time for
work on Sunday. Operators con-
tend this would be equivalent to a
80 per cent pay increase.

News Guild Asks
ConciIiution In
Newspaper Strike

Philadelphia (FP) - The Phil
adelphia- Camden Newspaper Guild
marked its Goth day Of strike
against the Philadelphia Record
and the Camden Courier-Post here
by asking the U. S. Cancellation
Service to step into the picture.
The guild said it made the move
in an effort to nudge j. David
Stern, the publisher, out of his
stalling tactics. Stern's represen-
tatives, after promising to set a
day from negotiations, have stalled
more than two weeks after asking
time to study contracts currently
being signed by publishers else
where.
All news Of the strike has been
totally iron-curtained by Stern's
commercial competitors. The Stern
version has been run for columns
in his scab papers and justification
for his actions has appeared in adj
vertisements in papers throughout
the country. Guild advertisements
have been turned down cold by the
same papers.
The striking Record staff has
been publishing it's own paper, The
Real Record, since early in Decem-
ber Complete with local news, in
side-stories and advertisements, it
is rapidly becoming popular and
its fourth edition has a press run
of 100000.
Stern, who when he first launch
ed his papers was considered a
liberal publisher, has now struck
it rich, guild members say, and has
taken to 'loitering around corners
with shady characters-big Phil
adelphia banking, department store
and radio interests"
Stern's consistent rejection of
the job security clause which is
standard in guild contracts has led
his employees to believe he intends
to fire a large part of the $50
member staff that helped build his
newspaper-radio realm. 1t was this
issue, coupled with his refusal to
bulge from his offer of a IL per
cent wage increase when there was
no question of his ability to pay,
that precipitated and has prolong-
ed the strike.
Publishers elsewhere throughout
the country have been agreeing to
20 and 25 per cent wage increases.

IT'S A LIE!

the Times is saying about a pay
boost for you-so that you can
"put on little fat in times of
prosperity"
Instead of seeking a way for a
peaceful solution of the terrible
civil war in China, the New York
Times openly supports the Kuom-
intang dictatorship. Seeking to
cover up the fact that we have
been guilty of supplying Chang
Kai-shek with the materials of
waging war, the Times on Dec. 19
noted that 1--WE have sold the Chi
nese some surplus property but mo
weapons which could be used in
fighting civil war;"
Maybe the Times thinks that
wars are fought only with atomic
bombs. Theodore H. White, former
Time magazine correspondent in
China, reported in the New Repub-
lie on Dec. 16 that 'over 800 mil
lion dollars worth of surplus war
goods in the Pacific" were given
to the Chang Kai-shek govern
ment; and that we were in the pro-
cess of giving the same govern
ment 271 naval vessels "the first
of which have already shelled Com
munist ports"
White points out that the U. S.,
instead of halting civil war, has
Supplied it. We have moved huge
armies into position, given them
the strength to make war. Chaing's
armies roll on American trucks,
powered by American gasoline,
fly American planes firing Ameri-
can bullets, fight with American
tanks, shells and guns"
Nope. We have given nothing to
the Chaing Kai-shek government
(which could be used in fighting
civil war;"
On Nov. 16 the New York Times
ran a long article of Yugoslavia
which cited a number of hair-rais-
ing stories about the conduct Of
the government of that country.
After about 1000 words, the re-
porter who did the article confess
ed: ''It must be stressed that these
reports are not based on first-hand
experience Of any Sort"
Paying lip-service to the concept
of "free" press, the New York
Times on Nov. 6 solemnly wrote:
"a responsible newspaper pri-
mary duty, from a business as well
as an ethical standpoint, is to the
community ). l.. 1t owes that public
full and impartial news and its
candid and unbiased editorial COM
ments."
OH YEAH!
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1947-01-16
Reporters Win
S7OO MinimumS

New York (FP)-Reporters on
the New York Times and New
York Herald Tribune won S1OO
weekly minimums in contracts
signed here with the Newspaper
Guild of New York. Signing of the
contracts made the New York local
first to achieve the American
Newspaper Guilds wage program
of 500 minimums.
Both agreements also provide
for a straight 20 per cent general
wage increase, which becomes eff
