Spicer News

WHAT did you think about
w Mr.. Haynes last letter?
Don't you think he's all wrong
when he says Spicer workers are
not doing good work? l know
that in my Department everyone
does the same quality work as
ever before, if they don't the In
spector who has been an Inspec-
tor for years will catch it. Moth
ing leaves a Dept. unless its up
to par. Sure, once in a while
some one slips up. This is to be
expected, but do you think ne
deserves a letter from Haynes,
is which he picks a bone with
the Inspection Dept. and the
people who are at present work
ing up a sweat while on the job
because of the intense heat.
believe Haynes last letter pro-
voked many Spiced people, and
i don't blame them, but at the
same time Haynes sent this let
ter same as many other manu-
facturers sent them out too.
1t is all in the program of
the National Association of
Manufacturers, a large union
of Manufacturers that spend
millions each year to defeat
the progression of your Union.
You probably have read In
many magazines about labor
liking the Taft Hartley law,
well this is in the program too.
There's only one way to beat
the N. A. NJ and that is to
vote in the next election. Vote
for labor candidates. Men that
know what it is to do days
work in the factory or on the
farm, not some playbOy or
rich mans son.
We have taken it on the chin
ever since our beloved friend
President Roosevelt pa SIS e d
away. Make up your mind now
to vote this November and also
to get your friends to vote. The
old timers in the shop remember
how it was before our Union
organized. We must not allow
these times to return. Defend
your Union by voting.
