different provisions of the law Agreeing that
the law was one-sded and unfair to the work
ers of the country, Senator Taft now brazenly
nfers that he is for repeal of the Tatt-Hartey
Act in name only. In good old plain Amerl-
can talk he is telling you that even II he was
and is wrong about his pet union-b busting piece
of legislation he is still going to do 1t his way.
OF course the political implication in TINS
Is that in 1850 he doesn't want any Legislation
of this type on the books with his name at
tached to it. 1t might lose few precious votes
and we believe and hope that the Senator VIII
get precious few votes
| realize of course that to attempt to point
out to the average worker the loop-holes OF
the law borders on the impossible because
again one of Congressman Hartleys classical
speeches beseeched the employer not to seek
enforcement of the law until after the l948
elections.
Picture yourself on strike because of the
employers unreasoning attitude in negotla-
tions Picture your picket line limited to two
pickets to gate because of an injunction
granted by the Board. Picture the struck
plant filled with strikebreakers voting in an
election from which you are barred because
you dared to strike. Most of all, picture your
self doing a ten-year stretch in the peniten-
tiary because you asked a strikebreaker to
join the union.
You do not believe these things will hap
pen because you do not read in the newspa-
pers the decisions of the General Counsel of
the NLRB; Americas great newspapers do
not print the rulings of this august person,
nor do they publish all of the court decisions
handed down under this damnable law by the
various circuit courts and courts of appeal as
well as state supreme courts
Again say those members who spent long
hours on the picket lines in the 30's will not
have to be prodded into sending card or let
ter to Tom Burke and John LesinSki. They
know only too we'll what can happen. II is
the younger members of our organization who
have no conception of what civil war at plant
gates can be like They are the ones who have
to be urged to send communications to their
congressman.

She Fought Union But
Got Fired ANYHOW

Cof FREQ ANYHOW
tR.pr,nt.d from cIo News and by Alan swim)
T,HIS is a story about gratitude and ap-
l. preciation-or the lack of them-and
what happened to woman who worked
for a branch of the worlds largest mo
nopoly.
It illustrates the thing which some
times happens when an employe tried to
make good thing of company loyalty"
And it shows that fellow employees
don't ordinarily try to help you out once
you've let them down.
Principal character in the story is
woman who was we'll known to fellow
workers for her nasty tongue" and her
long record of anti-unionism.
She had been with the telephone COM

missed an opportunity to do the right

She frequently-and avidly-charged
that unions were mo good" They were

ers, she said.
She knew nearly every anti-union ar
gument in the book Her pet theme was,
"Now, if you'll do your job well-really
produce-you've got nothing to fear from
the company"
She seemed to get real delight out of
cornering new employees and urging them
not to become unionists.
It happened suddenly - without adj
vance warning - and it left the union
hater stunned.
She received notice saying that her
services with the phone company were no
longer required.
The following day she engaged in an
argument with her immediate superior in
the office-a rather noisy argument.
What she wanted to know was why
she, of all people, had been given a dis
charge notice.
She said she just simply couldn't un-
derstand it.
"Why I've been on the company's side
ever since I've been here" she declared
'I've fought the union for you. Only
last year when we had the strike | crossed
the picket line every day didn't miss a
single day. was loyal.
"Why, if it hadn't been for me and
few others like me you wouldn't have
been able to provide the limited service
that you did"
On and on il went-until she finally
ran down. Then her "boss" said
Mrs. ............,, might remind you
that the strike has been over for long
time. It's past history.

do job and give service. And that's some
thing you're not doing.
''If you don't mind we'll not discuss it
any further"
None of the girls at the office attempt
ed to come to her rescue and few, If any,
felt sympathy for her.
Some of them recalled her anti-union
Trades. Others remembered her crossing
the line while they were picketing. And
some recalled she had called them union
trash" as she hurried to work while they
were out on strike.
Frankly, some of the girls seemed to
get big kick out of the situation. One of
them suggested that she mot lose faith in
the company which always takes care

Dear Mrs. Post: Are visiting
cards a requirement today for
some one living an ordinary every
day life?
Answer: Their principal uses
today for the average person is
to enclose with gifts and to write
invitations on. If you have little
use for cards even for this pur-
pose, then you could certainly do
without them.
Go on Occasion
Dear Mrs. Post: I am friends
with a married couple who are
eight or 10 years older than am.
The wife is away on an extended
vacation and her husband keeps
asking me to go out with him;
says he's lonesome. I don't see
any harm in it but mother says
it will not look right and people
will talk and that when his wife
comes home all the stories will
have become exaggerated. I wish
you'd give me your opinion.
