"A Strong Unions Work
In A Southern Community

Organization of a Textile Work
ers Union of America local by en-
ployes of the Dan River Cotton
Mills, in Danville, Va, seven years
ago, has had tremendous impact
on the whole area.
The success which the hitherto
underpaid textile workers had in
raising their wages, and gaining a
voice in working conditions, inn
pressed other workers in Danville.
Soon after the victory at the
Dan River Mills, $50 workers in
the Danville Knitting Mills, hos
iery company, joined TWUA. Man
agement stalled in contract nego-
tiations, but a one day strike con-
WINGED the employer that the work
ers meant business. Today they
enjoy the highest wages and best
conditions to be found in the gen.
orally unorganized seamless hos
iery industry.
Even the bus drivers in Danville
turned to TWUA. Altho their work
bore little resemblance to textile
operations, the TWUA was the
only union in the area to which
they could turn. An election was
held and the drivers became MEM
bers of the textile workers union.
The final organizing score for
sTWUA i'm Danville is five success
ful local unions: Three in the cot
ton mills, one in the hosiery mill,
and one of bus drivers. These locals
have formed the Pittsylvania Coun-
ty Joint Board, which today speaks
for more than 12,500 workers in
the Danville area.
Early in its history the joint
board called upon TWUA's nation
al education department to set up
classes to train the new unionists
in trade union history, union func-
'tions, and the administration of
contracts. Many Danville workers
have gone to TWUA summer insti-
tutes which are held each year
thruout the south.
A year and a half ago the joint
board hired it's own director Of edu-
cation and recreation. He helps
with shop steward classes, the
monthly newspaper, the unions
weekly radio program, regular free
Saturday night dances, holiday
parties and picnics, and a host of
other activities.
In another month the joint board
will be moving into its newly con-
structed union center. 1t is expect
ed that educational and recreation
al activities will increase now that
the union has adequate facilities
of its own.
Early in its career the joint
board learned that it must be
active in politics. Working with a
few small AFL and unaffiliated
unions in Danville, TWUA helped
form Labor's Legislative League.
The League now acts for all organ
lied workers in the area.
Virginia is cursed with poll
tax, a complicated registration pro-
cedure and the reactionary state
political machine presided over by
Sen. Harry +. Byrd. But real pro-
gress has been made in qualifying
union members and their families
to vote, and the union has become
an important political force.
Two years ago TWUA member
came within 500 votes of beating
the machines candidate for the
state legislature. Since that initial

IBEW Buils Out Small Town
Paper. Target of Employers

Washington (LPA) - One of
Americas largest unions, the Init
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
AFL, came to the rescue this week
of a small-town publisher facing
destruction of his paper.
The help was extended to Charles
A. Crowder, publisher of the Flora
Qll.) Sentinel, a bi-weekly, which
had been the target of a wrecking
plot by a clique of business men in
that town of 5000 population.
Secretly, the business men
bought up notes, and mortgages on
Crowder's property, instituted fore
closure proceedings and got a
Judgment. Then they tried to seize
the papers presses and silence the
publication, because it refused to
abandon its policy of giving organ
lied labor a fair break in its news
columns.
Specifically, they demanded that
Crowder cease giving any space to
the workers side in a strike of an
IBEW local for recognition at the
city's utility plant. When CroWder
refused, they pushed the scheme to
close the paper, but Crowder won
a stay in court against enforcement
of the judgement-a stay that was
to expire in fortnight.
Local unions tried to raise the
$12,500 needed by Crowder to clean
up the notes and mortgage, but
that much money wasn't to be had
among organized workers in so
small a town. The IBEW then
swung into the breach, extending
a loan sufficient to clean up the
debt and save the paper.
President Dan w. Tracy, in a
wire to Crowder, made it clear
there would be no strings attached.
His telegram read:
. "We have observed with interest
your great fight in Flora, for the
maintenance of the principle of a
free press. Under our system Of
free democratic government, free
dom of the press is fundamental
principle which must be fought for
vigilantly and tirelessly by all true
believers in our constitution"
Accordingly, we of the IBEW,
in the exercise of our rights as
American citizens, have arranged
for a loan to be made to satisfy the
notes which are secured by mort
cages on the real property and op-
Grating equipment of the news
paper.
"We have had business experts
check the matter and have been ad-
yised that this is a sound business
transaction. In return for the loan
you will be required to execute the
legal documents to give full secur-
ity for the loan.
"You may be assured that there
are no strings attached to this of
fer and that we will not use our
financial interest to control your
editorial or news policy in any
manner, directly or indirectly.
Labor seeks no special privilege.
Truthful and undistorted coverage
of the news is all that we ask and
are entitled to-"
The offer was accepted in the
following wire from Crowder:

Justice Dept
Seeks TO Deport
Chief

San Francisco UPA) - Harry
Bridges, on trial before a federal
grand jury on charges of perjury
and fraud, was last week returned
to his job as president of Int'l
Longshoremen's & Warehousemen's
Union by an overwhelming MEM
bership referendum vote.
Attorney General Tom Clark and
other Justice Department officials
have accused Bridges of falsely
denying he was Communist when
he applied for US citizenship. The
immigration Bureau has started
proceedings to deport the Austria
lian-bom longshore leader.
There have been two previous at
tempts to deport Bridges, once in
1889 when an immigration Bureau
hearing finally cleared him and
once in 1941 when the Justice De-
partment entered the case. The
1941 trial went all the way up to
the Supreme Court where it was
thrown out for lack of evidence.
Attorney General Clark has
brought new charges on what he
claims is new evidence. Two other
union officials, Henry Schmidt and
j. w. Robertson, were indicted
along with Bridges.
ILWU officials charge that the
case was revived by order of the
Truman administration because
Bridges has been criticizing "the
Administrations failure to deliver
on election promises" J."
f. Joseph Donohue, who is hand
ling the Justice Departments case,
said that the issue is whether the
defendants violated federal sta
tutes. Neither their labor nor their
political affiliations are in anyway
involved, nor were they consider

Watch Holiday
Driving Hazards

Noble countians are being
warned this year to watch their
Christmas season driving.
If you plan to spend Christmas
at home, then watch your driv-
ing, to be sure you don't spend
it in a hospital instead.
Dangerous driving conditions
brought about by a combination
of winter and pre-Christmas ac-
tivity increase the possibly of
accidents. Sleet, ice snow, fog,
all present extra hazards when
driving and Noble county motor
lists should take extra precau-
tions to avoid costly accidents
and injuries.
Special studies by the National
Safety Councils committee on
winter driving hazards show that
about two out of three winter
accidents occur on snow and ice.
The second major factor in the
increased accident rate is reduc-
ed visibility in winter time.
But in spite of all helpful aids
and warnings, the only one who
can definitely prevent accidents
is the driver, advised the coun-
Gil.

Gives Top Yields at
Low Production Cost

COLUMBIA, MO. - A five-point
program to balance the soils
needs" and obtain maximum crop
yields per acre at low production
costs, was outlined by o. T. Cole
man, Missouri University exter ion
soils specialist.
Here are the steps Coleman sug-
gests:
l. Provide plenty of plant food in
available form for the crops you are
growing. Crops cannot grow with
out nutrients.
2. Have your soil tested to deter
mine whether the plant food supply
is in balance. Growing crops need a
balanced ration the same as do peo-
pie and livestock.
3. Get the soil in condition so that
crops can use the plant foods. This
means a turnover of organic mat
ter. You can add organic matter and
improve soil tilth, drainage and
aeration by growing Well-fertilized
| deep-rooted legumes.
4. Keep water, plant nutrients and
topsoil at home by conservation
methods. Where needed, these may
| include terracing and contouring to
reduce runoff and erosion losses.
S. Follow a well-balanced crop
| ping system. Deep-rooted legumes
for pasture and green manure crops
need to be rotated regularly with
grains. Livestock is a must" tc
properly handle pasture and rough
age crops in such crop-balancins
program. Tests have shown that
where crop is pastured off, abou
rs per cent of the organic matter i.
returned to the soil. This is true o
both legurne and non-legume crops

away one year ago, Dec. l8, 1949.
One year ago today
The sun was just rising,
The day had begun.
His face was calm and waiting,
For the light of brighter day.
He gently closed his eyes,
For an angel now had come
And fell asleep with Jesus,
With the rising of the sun.
I do not need special day
To bring you to my mind,
The days I do not think of you,
Are surely hard to find.
If all the world was mine to
give,
I would give it yes and more,
To see the face of my dear hus-

Come smiling through the door

him
His words have proved too true
When l lost you, dear John,
I lost my best friend.
