Generally, with regard to Israel
policy, the election of President
Truman seems to inspire more
confidence than a victory for the
Republican candidate would have.
For one thing, Dewey was an I'M
known quantity. No one knows
for sure how he would have carried
out his pledges to the State of
Israel.
On the other hand, President
Truman has had several chances
to act in favor of Israel since its
establishment in May. Each time
he has acted positively. He gave
immediate de facto recognition to
Israel. He has been pushing hard
to get the Export-Import Bank to
advance loan to the new state
And when Israel was threatened
with sanctions through Security
Council resolution President Tru-
man sent orders to the American
delegation not to support the
measure. He is thus, both by his
public statements and his actions
in behalf of Israel, more positively
committed than Dewey ever was.
On the matter of the loan, for in
stance, he is not only committed
by his public statements and by
the Democratic Party platform,
but he gave private assurances to
President Chain Weizmann that
a loan could be expected.
The matter of de jure recogni-.
ton for Israel is another matter
on which President Truman has
very positively committed himself.
On matters concerning Israel
that are within the balliwick of
the U. NJ, President Truman, it
is believed, will scrupulously avoid
unilateral American action. But
on matters concerning direct BIZ
lateral relations between tn
United States and Israel, such as
full recognition, it seems likely
that the President will follow
through on his pledges. It does

tlOn anu CIVIL rights.
One fact stands out. President
Truman has waged an almost
single-handed campaign. In fact
he won his battle over the opposi-
ton of certain members of his own
party. Now that he has won he
is beholden to no man. Indeed
some Democratic members of Con-
gress are obligated to him for the
Democratic victory on which they
rode to office.
President Truman may take
courage from the mandate given
him and seize the opportunity to
tighten up his administration.
This might include clearing out
of the State Department persons
who have repeatedly been under
cutting him on foreign affairs
matters, particularly the Palestine
policy. Secretary of State George
c. Marshall, long rumored to be
at odds with the President over
Israel, has announced his intention

Dear Mr.. Moscovitz:
For one of my cub scout
achievements I am to make a
scrap book. I have decided to
make a scrap book about famous
Jews, such as you publish every
Friday called elves OF Our
Z INES"
It would take Is of these strips
to make the book. This would
take a long time if we were to
start saving them as of now, so l
would appreciate it if you would
send me Is pages of the past Is
weeks for my scrap book. l
would appreciate this very much.
Yours truly,
Mark Entman
Editors note:
Dear Mark:
We shall be very happy to do
as YOU wish. We think it is a
very good idea that youngsters
such as you show interest in the
great leaders of our Jewish his
tory. We suggest that boys and
girls throughout the South make
scrap books of our cartoon, elves

Local Union 124 met in regular
session Tuesday evening and had
a very interesting meeting. The at
tendance was not up to par but
this can be attributed to the cold
weather as the thermometer was
lowering around the zero mark.
Several decal questions were up
for discussion and should be settled
in the very near future. We receiv-
ed report of the settlements hand
ed down at the last meeting of the
Decorators Standing Committee
and there were quite few ar
guments over their rulings. While
we realize there are two sides to
every dispute, we must also take
into consideration the committee in
making their decision are guided
by the evidence at hand.
Four new members were initiated
and their names added to the roll.

Present Officers
Retained For New
Term At Wheeling

Wheeling, w. Va. - During the
past year, Local Union No. 6 has
managed to build it's financial re-
sources to the point where the
members present at the January
meeting voted to invest Five Hun
dred dollars more in Government
Bonds. Twenty five dollars was
also contributed to the local chap
ter of the Infantile Paralysis Foun-
dation. 1t Was. also agreed to take
up dime collection in the plant
for this great humanitarian cause.
The fight against crippling polio
can be won if all American citi-
zens will put their dimes and dol
lars into the struggle. Organized
Labor can be expected to join the
March of Dimes. ~
The membership of Local No. 6
reelected all of it's present Off
GERS for another six months term.
Pres. Joe Robinson has very cap
ably led the local for the past five
years. The other two major Off
ces are occupied by Brother Ted
Mountford, financial secretary and
Geo. Friedrich, treasurer and re-
cording secretary Both men have
had wide experience in union af-
fairs and can be counted upon to
keep No. 6 going along smoothly
during 1948.
Since this scribe's last little
piece in the Herald, two more of
our brothers have been stricken.
Brother Ed. Wiseman, boiler fire
man and Brother Frank Metzner,
kilnman. Both men have held men,
bership in Local No. 6 for many
years and their passing saddens
many friends in this community.
The plant is on full time sched-
lie while many other industrial con-
Germs are shut down due to lack of
gas fuel. Natural gas is very short
at this writing but the pottery uses
oil in kiln firing, which permits

years the same forces have fought
us violently in our own country.
And the proof that right will tri-

day our organizations are strong

tory.
"We are proud that those who
oppose a decent life for all work

that those who glorify the police
state and dictatorship all oppose
US.
"There is a saying that a man
is known by the friends he keeps.
He should also be known by the
enemies he makes.
"This conference can glory in the
fact that those who have tried to
defame us are the same people who
hays opposed the aspirations of
workers throughout history-the
forces of greed and corruption.
"Not only has this conference
established an organization. 1t has
also given voice to a program
which expresses the just aspirations
of working people everywhere. I'm

Local Union 1872, Handle Casters
and Finishers, just keep rolling
along in their usual manner, even
though we seldom make the col
umns of the Herald. We have no
one but ourselves to blame in this
respect as numerous o. C.s have
been appointed, but few have meas
ured up to the task of fulfilling
the bill.
Our last meeting was held on
January 10 and we had very good
attendance considering the wealth
er. The various shop committees
made some nice reports and some
that were not so good to the in
terest of our trade. We hope the
few Irregularities can be cleared
up at our next meeting when it
is hoped that record turnout will
be present. The meeting will be
held February 2 and we urge every
to be present.-O. c. 1872.

Plant Nurses Come
Through With Idea
Worthy Of Mention

Trenton, N. Ut is with sin
cere regret we announce the pass
ing of two of our members, Bros.
Walter Kownacki and Thomas Kee-
gan. Our deepest sympathy to the
bereaved members of their fami-
lies.
Now that the holidays are over
and we have time to read the pap
ers again, we thing the trade will
be interested in the spirit shown
by our members during the Christ
mas period.
The nurse at our plant, Miss
Shea, suggested to the Presidents
of Local Unions 45 and 40 that
we remember our retired employees
at Christmas. The superintendent
was asked his opinion concerning
this matter and he heartily ap-
proved of it. The committees of
both Locals went to work immedi-
ately and in the short space of one
week collected $4,000 The salaried
collected $4,000 on
their own initiative.
Coming as it did at the Christ
mas season, the collection is all
the more remarkable when it is
that it received pub
licity at only one meeting after
which the shop committeeman went
to work with the results noted
above.
All involved in this matter were
more than satisfied the following
week when the cards of thanks and
greetings for the new year poured
in from every recipient of this
fund. Miss Shea and her assistant,
Miss Sullivan, should be proud of
the fact that their idea bore such
fruit in this supposedly
work-a-day world where greed in
high places is no longer frowned
upon.-O. c. 49.

for at the standard overtime rate
of time and one-half.
Mr.. Green advanced his proposal
during testimony before the Senate
Banking Committee on several bills
to curb initiation which is termed
"the most urgent question confront
ing every American today"
He called for prompt and Wig
orous action by Congress to halt
the inflationary trend and to re-
duce the cost of living. He urged
re-imposition of the excess profits
tax on corporations, limited price
control over selected commodities,
rationing fo consumer goods in
short supply, inventory control and
ALLEGATION of scarce commodities,
tax relief for the lower brackets
rather than general tax reduction,
credit controls and extension and
Strengthening of rent control.
Declaring that American workers
had suffered a decline in real wages
and reduced standard of living
since the war, Mr.. Green said:
"Organized labor prefers by far
that the cost of living be reduced
rather than that it be forced to
ask for further wage increases.

President Kirkwood and his
Shop Committee, are off to a good
start on the Trades Union road for
1948. They have demonstrated that
they will not let the grass grow
under their feet in the matter of
local grievances, and to this end
Vice President Ed. Wheatley, was
called in to help settle some grie-
vances with the Management at
the Universal Plant.
Two of the grievances seemed at
first to be insurmountable, but
after letting good common sense
prevail on both sides of the table
in the negotiations, the grievances
were solved in a manner that,
lends credit to Bro. Wheatley and
the Committee, and also to the Of
ficials of the Universal Company
for composing their differences in
such an amicable way.
Before leaving New Castle, Bro.
Wheatley left this message for all
members of Local 1873: - "Give
