ship of Pipe Threading had been
misinformed.
Assured that an investigation
of the charges against Gosser
would prove them true, they
had acted in what they consider
ed the "best interest" of the
whole membership, Lazette de-
clared.
But now, convinced by the ac-
ton of the International Execu-
tive Board of the UAW-CIO
that the charges were baseless,
the unit has reversed its posi-
ton.
The statement is signed by
Joseph Shea, chairman of the
unit, Virgil Muetzel, vice-chair-
man, Lazette, and six committee
men: VILLA m Eick, James
Burch, Warren Wilkinson, Cliff
ford Flooring, Romy Kanfield
and Albert Lister.
End Of Revolt
This action of the Pipe Thread
ing group brings to a close the
Toledo Blades revolt story.
The campaign in the Blade made
headlines which began when q
group of unit officers and the
TIUC president signed state
ment which the Blade publish
ed charging Gosser and the adj
ministration with wrongdoing,
and demanding their removal.
Follow-up stories by the
Blade added one group after an
other to what it called a revolt"
in Local IL. The total Blade
figu-I rel- aimed. for several
days, at about 5000 members
who were trying to throw out
the leadership.
Conservative estimates are
that the total figure never ex-
ceeded 600.
Then the unit chairman Of
Toledo Pipe Threading stated
that his name was being used
improperly as a leader in the
revolt" and the carefully built
Blade story began to fall apart.
The Champion unit, one Of
the major portions of the Blade
total figure, in membership
meeting, made it clear the unit
officers who signed the original
statement were not acting for
the membership.
Other Withdrawals and unit
statements followed.
In this edition, the announce
ment of the executive commit
tee of Pipe Threading and the
resignation of the TIUC presi-
dent, peel the Blades big "re-
volt" down to what most had
considered its actual basic
strength = two anti -Gosser men
and their personal friends.

Let Us Part

When the CIO Guild began con-
tract negotiations with Paul
Block Juniors newspapers sew
en- months ago, they asked for a
few more bucks in the paycheck,
and few improvements in the
contract.
Block, that great lover OF Ia
Dor, rushed to comply with this
modest request with all the
eagerness Of q Scotsman grab
bing a nightclub check.
In fact, he's having more
trouble parting than the Red
Sea.
This is a good place, inciden-
tally, to correct a Journal error.
Last week we said Paul Schrader
was one of the negotiators. He
doesn't negotiate.
Gordon Strong, business man
ager, is the member of manage
ment's team we had in mind.
He doesn't negotiate very fast,
either.
