I mean the one with the signs
on it. I'm sure Rosie won't take
offense at me for writing this

appropriate" l thought it was
soon afterwards she gave me q

There were two very elabor-
ate parties in this department
last week. On Tuesday, Robert
'Mousie" Kay put on shindig
location was the Sunshine
Room" near the friction ma
chimes. Those attending were
Tony Gray, Ted Zolchiak, Ber-
ME Lubinski, Dixie Banachow-
ski, Walter Geremski, Billy
Karamol, Andy Holmes (who
ate more than anyone), John
Krygielski and yours truly,
English. There was plenty to
eat and Mousie was the perfect
host. We all had a good time.
The other party was celebra-
ting Dixie" BanachoWski's S
birthday and also Billy Kara
moIs. The location, same room.
Male invitations were extended
to the same as the party above,
but you all know Dixie and
Billy, they wanted to add little
spice to their party, so they in
vited not only Ralph Young,
but Eleanor Kujawa, Betty,
Marcelle, Eleanor, Carrie and
Jenny. We had potatoe salad,
meat, thousand island dressing
to cover the lovely lettuce salad,
white and rye bread and choco-
late and strawberry ice cream.
It was a nice party and a good
time was had by all. Note: NO
FOREMAN INVITED. BY the
way, it was Bernie Lubinski's
birthday too.
Ask Celia Ryan what happen
ed last week when her car re-
fused to run when she was mid
way through Ottawa Park. Was
1t force of habit from those
"good ole days" when you were
single or did 1t stop intentionly?
Well never know.
Rose Stritt, gap-setter, on
line Is, put herself In a very
embarrassing position one morn
ing last week. You see, Rose
got delivery on a beautiful 1880
Dodge Club Coupe and she
wanted to be hospitable and
bring riders In to work in her
new car, so she informed them
the day before, that she would
meet them at their respective
places. But "Wot Hoppened?"
Nexo morning, Rosie's new car
had flat tire and they arrived
at the plant 81 minutes late.
Harold Smith, congenial mis-
cellaneous man in D, was hand

girl. (Their first.

Unemployment and why peo-
pie are getting laid Off" Now
after several weeks of survey
ing the amount of unemployed
and increase in laying off l ar
rived at the following conclu-
sion. Two of them are the waste
full manner in which we finance
and the high cost we
pay for good part of our man
agement,
1t has been said on may oc-
casions that through the pur-
chase of stocks and bonds the
American public owns the Amer
lean corporations. Well, last
year not more than 100000
Americans plus a few foreign
ers owned stocks. Less than 100,-
BOO stockholders drew half the
dividens received by the indi-
viduals. In most corporations
he majority Of voting power is
not much more than 1 % of the
stockholders. So from the stand
point of the investments there
s an economic power in the
hands of a very few people.
In 1888, Franklin Delano
said, and I quote:
This concentration Is seriously
the economic effect
veness of private enterprise
IS a way Of providing employ
nent for labor and capital, and
IS way of assuring a more eq- {
litable distribution Of income q,
