Washington (LPA)-A new and
intensified CIO Political Action
Committe campaign will be launch
ed on June Is and will concentrate
on the establishment of ward and
neighborhood organizations and de-
velopment of "PAC structures
along Congressional district lines
so that a more powerful political
organization will be set and ready
to go in 1948."
Backbone Of the campaign, ac-
cording to PAC Director Jack
Kroll who addressed a meeting of
20 CIO editors here last week, viii
be nationwide drive for 81 vol
untary contributions from CIO
members.
Funds collected in this cam
paign," said Kroll, Twill be devoted
to building and strengthening local
PAC organizations througout the
nation to fight back against anti
labor Congressman who are seek
ing to eliminate American unions
from the American scene"
Next years PAC election cam
paign will pay special attention to
between 100 and 120 Congressional
districts where the CIO has
strength. At least so full time peo-
pie will be assigned to PAC from
various CIO international unions.
PAC Vice-chairman David J. Nc
Donald disclosed that PAC would
undertake a nationwide advertising
campaign which may also involve
radio and strip film publicity. He
warned, eff we don't want to go
back to the days of the 1920's and
1930's, if we want to have jobs
we've got to have strong political
action" He emphasized that PAC
from now on must depend for its
financing on the individual 81 con-
tributions and not on large con-
tributions from international
unions.

AFL To Build
New Quarters
In Washington

Washington, ID. c. QLNS).-The
American Federation of Labor
plans to build a beautiful modern
headquarters building on the his
toric Ashburton House property,
across Lafayette Square from the
White House.
This was revealed shortly after
Justice Jennings Bailey approved
an order providing for sale OF the
property to the AFL for million
dollars. There were no other bids.
Tentative plans call for erection
of a two-level structure, 8 stories
high on H Street, and considerably
lower on 18th Street. 1t will house
a large auditorium and conference
rooms.
The building, it was said, will
probably have two entrances and
be similar in architectural style to
other buildings in the vicinity. The
Ashburton House, at 1926 H Street,
N. w., will be torn down to make
way for the new structure, it was
understood.
Methods of financing the pro-
ject will be developed at an execu-
tive council meeting next August
or September, an AFL spokesman
said. Other details are being work
ed out by a building, committee,
headed by AFL Secretary-Treasur-
er George Meany and United Mine
Workers President John L. Lewis.

Here is little piece on publicity
that ought to interest local unions
and their officers.
Years ago unions had the idea
that they wanted nothing at all in
the papers about their doings. They
felt that union business was of no
concern to anyone else and that
for any one else to find out about
union business might hurt the
unions.
Most unions know better than
that now and the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor is spending a
huge sum of money to tell the ma
tion about labor affairs and labor
policies.
The main purpose of publicity
is the making of friends. Friend
ship is made by a frank telling
of the union story, when it is a
good story. That being the case,
it follows that the union story
must be good story, in the sense
that it is not selfish story or an
anti-social story.
By and large, the union story is
a good story, backed by construc-
tive policy that fits in with the
general story of social and eco
nomic progress.
To get publicity consistently,
unions must create the impression
that they are glad to tell all about
everything and not just about some
things.
A pro-publicity policy, if it is to
succeed, must mark the definite
end of a pro-secrecy policy. You
can say to reporter, "that sub
ject is confidential for the time
being, but we'll tell you all about
it just as soon as we cam, but you
cannot say, "that is none of your
damned business.
To get publicity steadily, unions
must create confidence in two
ways. One is to kill any impress
sion that only the nice things are
to become known; the other is to
create and compel the impression
that there is complete honesty
about everything.
These are just the plain, simple,
A, B, C, things about publicity and
it's uses and how to get it.
Il 4
Union publicity should, as rule,
be handled by one person and that
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1947-05-22

person should be approachable,
friendly, easy to reach in person
or by phone. That person can never
say, "don't bother me; I'm too
busy"
For that person a first rule is
never to try to kid a reporter or
an editor. Their training soon
shows them when you are trying
to play tricks and when that dis
covery is made you are through.
Another basic rule is that it's
no use trying to get something
into print just because you want
it in print. Learn to know what
constitutes news and don't offer
anything unless it is news.
There are many ways of making
news out of something that you
want printed, but until you learn
how to make it news you had bet
ter let it alone. An example is this:
You would like to have certain
thing said. If John Doe says it, it
isn't news. But it may be news if it
is put in the form of an interview
with your union president.
.
Whether any item is or isn't
news can be pretty largely deter
mined by asking yourself how
many newspaper readers will be
interested in the particular item.
If your union decides to re-dec-
crate the meeting place, that isn't
news, as far as the public is con-
cerned. But if the union adopts a
resolution to clean out city hall,
that's news for the papers.
Don't ever get the idea that
newspapers are doing you or your
union a favor by printing news
which you want printed. It's the
other way around. Treat reporters
accordingly. Never try bribery.
Don't do to reporter what you
wouldn't want done to yourself.
Above all, don't expect to be a
whiz bang right away, unless you
have had long and successful ex-
perience. Most occupations require
long apprenticeship and publicity
getting is no exception.
Study news habits of the paper
which you want to interest. Get to
know what they will use and how
they like to get it. Always remem-
ber that you are on the asking end
of the deal. Now go to it and see
what happens !-CMW.

sickness not covered by workmen's
compensation laws. The benefits
continue for maximum of 13
weeks during any one disability.
The policy includes payments for
room and board during hospital
confinement due to non-occupation-
al accident or sickness up to a
maximum of 81 days. The policy
provides for S5 a day payment for
room and board at the hospital.
1t also includes an additional pay
ment of charges for hospital serv-
ice during confinement up to a
maximum of S25.
Should surgical operation be
necessary in case of non-occupa-
tional accident or sickness, the pol
icy authorizes payments up to a
maximum of $50.
