Airuay Unit
.Airings
BY Hern Bick

We have a big fisherman il
the machine shop. He wen
fishing for carp in Lake Erie
but ended up by battling ;
shark. He tells us that he wen
five days and nights withou
food or drink to say nothing o.
sleep, then to his surprise it only
ended by him giving up. How
about it, Loomis?
Supervisors and foremen seen
to like to see the workers weal
bride and horse collar. We
are not horses and don't intend
to be. Mike Krispin had better
get wise to himself.
John Mroz, who recently un-
derwent a serious operation, is
coming along the road to re-
covery slow but sure. Keep up
the good work, John; we're pull
ing for you and hope to see you
around the shop very soon.
Another fish story from the
other side of the shop. Louie
Truna goes to Thunder Bay for
his bait. He uses two-foot bass.
Then he goes to Day Break Lake
to try to catch blue gills.
Hazel Boyd, Dept. IA, is re-
covering at her home after a re-
cent operation. We're hoping
for her speedy recovery.
The company is trying to
make money on these parking
lot deals. 1t wouldn't surprise
the people any if they would
try to charge them for parking
in their own lot.
Who is it from the machine
shop who only catches fish in
Tiedtke's fish market. Come on,
Big AL.
The people of the shop who
always come to the union desk
to cry on the shoulders of the
committee, wondering why they
don't take home more pay.
There is only one solution.
Check your time card to see if
you worked all week, then it
truthfully can be shown if you
have any tears to shed.
We have a superman in the
receiving dept, who thinks one
Job isn't enough for himself So
ne does four jobs. Come, now,
your acting days are
over.
We have with us two fight
ers from the millwright dept,
larry and Charley. They were
;een sparring last week.
One girl would like to see her
lame in print. Well, here is is,
sabel. Now give the fellows a
Freak or they will be very dis
appointed.
The way Dept. 10 looked
Ion. morning reminds one of a
hicken house with a bunch of
'oung chickens, some doing
OF of cackling while the older
mes vents right to work. This
reat commotion was all caused
y the company in rearranging
he dept. to make it easier on
he worker.

Progress

TOKYO, Japan (LPA) - A
pamphlet and film strip outlin-
ing the methods used by racket
eers and political party factions
in securing control of trade
unions has been reissued to the

ROANOKE RAPIDS, N. C.
(LPA)-It'll take more than the
Revenue-ers to stop the Textile
Workers Union of America-CIO

Despite an attempt to scare
workers who had used union as
sistance in filling out their in
come tax forms, TWUA chalked
up a 42S to 800 victory in an
NLRB election at Roanoke

week. The union is asking for
immediate elections in the other

This is a message to the many
checker sharpies in the factory
If you are in search of a good
match game, contact Harold
Pearson, Factory Office, 2no
floor, 10 Bldg. We understand
Harold is manager of a large
team of crack players.
Speaking of games, if you en-
10Y keen competition use some
of your noon period and visit
the 3rd floor, south east end oi
As Bldg, Dept. 100. A large
group of brothers play dart ball
every day. There is where you
will find a real. example of true
union brotherhood. No SQUAD
bling. When an argument starts
it quickly is quelled by the two
referees, whose decision is final.
WANTED: A goat herder or
tender. We have been informed
that Otto Hanson, Dept. 223, is
the owner of a large herd of
goats. Otto lives out in the wide
open land near Ottawa Lake,
Michigan. He does not keep
them for pets. He sells goat
milk, that health giving fluid for
those who have to drink it and
those who like these four-legged
kids.
One of the brothers, told us
he had dream a short time ago
and in it he saw a revamped
parking lot, laid out with yellow
parking stalls, concrete walks to
the big lot across from Gate 8,
and a new concrete ramp that
leads from Yost st. to 80 dock.
The best part of his dream was
when he stood just outside of 80
Bldg. and watched the hundreds
of vehicles being driven out and
10 and behold every one had an
OK. tag on it. He said he
searched the yards for cripples
but could find none. Then he
into Dept. 270 and found
it a we'll ventilated dept. Boy,
it sure was swell, not a bit of
smoke or odor. Wherever he
went everybody was smiling or
singing praises for the fine job

Of course, it was only
a dream.

No help has been forthcoming in

Reason? We don't know, except
that the welfare committee has
never been reappointed.

CIO Union Is
Given Pension

ASHIN GTON (LPA)-
Over 1000 paper workers in six
plants of the West Virginia Pulp
& Paper Co. will come under a
voluntary pension plan for the
first time this June. The final
plan agreed to by the company
and the United Paperworkers-

negotiation that started with the
unions objecting to the cor
poration's first proposals. One of
the firms vice presidents said:
"The union deserves credit for

Soils and Crops
A Little Constructive Worrying
Might Be in Order Now
Soils and Crops
By RALPH MERCER

HERE WE ARE right in the mid
die of harvesting another big wheat
crop in Montana. There are plenty
of worries ahead = whether the
root rot that showed up again this
year will affect the quality and
yield as much as it appeared it
would prior to the period of album
dant rainfall = whether the loss
from piling grain on the ground
will be increased by fall rains =
whether the sawfly will reduce the
yield in a larger area than it did in
1947 and whether we'll be able to
get all the harvesting completed
before the snow flies.
It's hoped that all these will not
consume all your worrying time
because there are things connected
with the 1949 crop that you'd better
do a little worrying about. For
instance, why not begin worrying
about how you can get your winter
wheat seed in and around Sept. Is
rather than starting in August and
running the chances of losses from
root rot. Why not worry a little about
treating your winter wheat seed to
prevent losses from sinking smut?
1t doesn't take long and it doesn't
cost much, so why have to worry?
Then again, if you'll pay some at
tention to seeding dates, it will be
possible to get some registered or
approved Yogo, Karmont, Newturk,
Cache or Wasatch seed to replace
a part of the acreage that has be-
come badly mixed during those
years when any kind of seed had to
be used. If we don't raise quality
wheat in Montana the value goes
down pretty fast, SO seed the best.

FAIR TIME

'The fair is the thing - They
are in full swing as we go to press.
Half v e. and half to go. Those who
are active in fair work pity those
poor creatures who know nothing
about what makes a fair click. Those
who neve participate just can't
understand why anyone would work
SO hard and long just to put to-
gether something for folks to look
at as they rush along the way to
the first race. When the fair bust
ness gets in the blood it generally
stays there. The appearance of a
good sheaf of alfalfa at fair time is
more important than a fresh per-
manent wave.
So far the fair exhibits have re-
Elected the good production year of

is gratifying to see the good quality
samples, most of which are varie-

rieties that show up once in a while
but not too often.
! The one surprise crop is barley.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-08-15

we'll just have to recognize the
limitations of the human race and
let it go at that.
Anyway - there are tons of
crested wheatgrass going into stacks
and bales this year that will help
soften the pains of snow, wind and
rain.

Awaited on Chanqinq
Veterans Job Rights

Veterans looked to the Supreme
Court today for q ruling this term
on whether ex-serviceman's job Sc
curity and seniority rights can be
changed by new collective bar
gaining agreement, made while he
was in the armed forces.
The court agreed yesterday TO re-
view California Federal Court de-
ciSion that three veterans were en-
titled to such seniority despite q
revised collective bargaining agree
ment between the Lockheed Air
craft Corp. and the Aeronautical
Industrial Lodge 727 during the war.
The union appealed to the Supreme
Court in behalf of the agreement
which, among other. things, gave
union chairmen seniority over other
Lockheed employees regardless OF
length Of service.
In other rulings yesterday the
Supreme Court:
Upheld, in effect, the validity OF
the so-called good faith" section
of the Portal to Portal Pay Act Of
1s47, exempting employers from
paying back wage claims if their
failure to pay had been in good
faith. The court refused to review
decisions of a Federal court in New
York which ruled against retroac-
tive pay claims of maintenance en-
ployes OF the Mutual Life Insurance
Co. in New York City.
Ruled, in TWO 5-to-4 decisions,

nostic powers" The other related to

ions. The dissenters were Justices
