WELDING AMERICA

of the Go gained strength and
their members benefited from
the association. 1t is obvious that
through the top leadership of
the Go and some Of its offilia-
ted unions a small segment have
sought to prevent the original
purpose and the organizational
functions of the Go. They have
also sought to transform CIO
its position as servant and coun-
sellor Of the unions and their
membership to dictatorship
over unions and mebers alike.
This policy of subordinating the
interest of the members of the
Clio unions to the political lie
tates of the Go leadership is
defended on the false ground that
it represents the will d the ma
jority. - =

BY FREDERICK o. SCOTT
Labor unity is joint action, con
certed action for the achievement
Of common objective, which
means the strength of all work
ers, regardless of race, religion,
sex CT political opinions. The
members of all unions, because Of
the great and continuous problems
in making a decent living and
keeping jobs, must have a uni
fled labor movement to fight fcrr
thei interests.
You must have unity to fight
blarney-mounthed politicians for
decent yigislation for the small
pecpless' interest. This is what
unions should fight for. Not each
other for the purpose of dis
ruption and hatred among one
another.
From the beginning of April
III 1948 until the end Of July 1910,
the National office Of the CIO
consisting the Auto Workers
the United Steel Workers. and
the Go Communication Work
ers of America have planned and
carried raids ON four hundred and
fifty six United Electrical Ma
chine Workers Of Americas or
ganized shops, which incidently
are also Go. Thirty-eight Of
these descriptive raids were sue
cessful.
The industrial unions through
out America organized more than
a decade ago to fight for an i'm
provement in wages and jobs Sc
curity. To strengthen themselves
in carrying out these same OBJ
jectives, the working peoples Of
other industries formed a feder-
alton of autonomous unions call
ed the Congress Of Industrial
Organizations. Millions Of work
ing peoples joined these unions of
the Go to become part Of a
unified force to advance their
economic welfare.
AS long as the CLIO adhered
to the purpose for which the
workers had formed it, the unions

VINO - WHO?

SO often do we hear some one
make a disparing remark that
they will not co-operat because
some one has had a drink of wine
Now we ponder the situation.
Just what is vino. In che best

eating person has wine with each
course. I have had it with steak
and a good Muscatel gravey is
my hearts delight with fish. Not
to mention that | have also had
white gravey with chicken at CT
ross in Mexico City with port.
Claret is good wine to drink
with a good cheese sandwich as
well as a pCrterhouse steak. And
who can say that a good burgudy
is not good with cold cuts after
the theater. Then, too. we might
have drink Of Port after eating
that piece Of rare hamburger;
but again we might ask for a
drink of sherry before we have
that lobster. Yes we say that wine

was that he could have it back for
