Toledo Steel Tube

We the executive committee
of Toledo Steel Tube unit are
one Of the smaller shops III Lo-
cal IL.
We believe that the sound and
democratic operations of our
union is absolutely essential to
our own protection, and to the
development of our own con-
tracts.
That is why we are so dis
turbed that the self-seeking ac-
tivities of few opportunists,
looking for political advantage,
have used the anti-1abor Toledo
Blade as their backing in a
drive against the administration
of the local.
Had they been successful, we
in the small shops would have
been the first victims.
We want the international
executive board to know that
we attribute the healthy con-
dition of our wages and work.
ing conditions in Toledo to the
leaders of our union; and we
point out especially, in view of
the Blades smear campaign,
that we consider Richard T..
Gosser one of the ablest of these
leaders,
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1950-06-09

We, the executive committee
of S. M. Jones Unit, Local IL,
speaking as one of the smaller
shops, view with deep misgiv-
lngs the attempt to break our
union in Toledo.
Our collective bargaining
strength Is the strength of the
local. Our solidarity with Local
l., and with the international,
is based principally upon our
understanding that we have
drawn support and power from
the local of which we are unit
member.
Therefor, the danger in which
every small unit has been placed
by the irresponsible anti-union
activity Of a small and dishonor-
able minority is a condition
which must be brought to an
end.
We ask the international ex-
ecutive board to understand that
the anti-Gosser m Owe m n t
whipped up in Blade headlines
in Toledo is only thin disguise
for an anti-UAW-CIO move; and
that the final target is the or
ganized labor movement itself.
We of the small shops, espe-
cially at S. M. Jones, knowing
that we would be the first
casualties in a breaking up of
labor, ask that this undemocrat-
ic minority operation be
stopped.

Mother Spring Unit

We, the executive committee
Of Mather Spring unit of Local
IL, want the international exc
ciItive board to know that the
anti-union antics of the fringe
elements in our local have prob
ably cost every one of US weeks
of wages.
We are on strike against the
company. No official of the COM
pany has been willing to meet
with us, or to meet with the
conciliator or the LMC, for
weeks.
II is obvious our management
has hoped that the Toledo Blade
ard It's puppets within our un-
ion will somehow be able to
smash Local IL and make 1t un-
nessary TO deal with us.
For the record, we are COM
pletely in support of our Local,
of the international UAW-ClO,
and of our international vice
president, Richard T. Gosser.
We know that a substantial
part of what we take home in
pay, when we are working, was
negotiated for us by Mr.. Gosser
himself; and we know. further,
that every dime of our wages,
and every good clause in our
contracts, got there and stayed
there because our union was
strong and democratic and well
led.
We ask the international ex-
ecutive board to see to ii that
resounding denunciation of these
internal disrupters be released,
SC that all may know that loud
nouthed, publicity hungry mi
norities have not yet taken the
place of simple constitutional
democracy in the UAW-CIO or
IN its Local 10.

TiIIofson Unit

We OF the Tiilotson unit OF
Local IL want the international
executive board of UAW-CIO TO
know we believe in the demo
cratic trade unionism we have
always had in Toledo.
We are veheraently opposed
TO the type of minority action
that has been making headlines
in the Toledo Blade.
This sort of anti-union activi-
ty has fouled up contract nego-
tiations, grievance settlements,
and the smooth operations of
eur union.
II has taken the service time
OF the international representa-
tives who normally help US solve
or anticipate the problems usual
to function union group.
We believe that Richard T.
Gosser, our elected internation-
al vice president, has given us
sound and able leadership. To
attribute the take home pay in
our envelopes and the excellent
working conditions and benefits
nToledo contracts to the in
spired negotiations Of Gosser
and to the solidarity in Local IL.
We ask the international ex-

PIoskon Unit

We of the Plaskon unit be-
lieve we speak for the great
majority of the membership of
Local IL when we say we are
sick and disgusted at the antics
of the disaffected group Great
ing a disturbance in our union.
1t has always been our belief
that in a democratic union such
as ours, the way to fight the
leadership is either with a plat
form or an official charge; and
the way to establish either of
these things is by the democratic
processes firmly spelled out in
the constitution and bylaws.
We, speaking for our own
unit, have a tremendous respect
for the integrity, ability and
honesty of Vice President Rich
ard T. Gosser.
We share with almost every
one within our local deep pride
in its achievements and fierce
resentment against those who
use a membership card as an ex-
cuse to gnaw away at the foun-
dations of our strength and soli-
darity.
Therefor, we hope the Inter-
national Executive Board of the
UAW-CIO will give the dis
rupters now making Blade head
lines full and democratic hear
ing, and, if they fail to make a
responsible case, give them a
full and democratic boot out of
the union they have defiled and
into the laps of the anti-union
group they have done so much
TO help.

WiIIys Unit

The executive board of the
WHY'S Overland unit of local IL
has wired Emil Macy, UAW-
CIO secretary-treasurer, request
ing time before the internation-
al UAW executive board, in or
der to present information on
the Toledo situation, Chairman
Homer Avery of the unit said
tonight.
One of the problems the unit
intends to get clarified is the
absence of financial reports to
the unit, a problem which has
been created by the non-feas-
ance of the financial secretary
of the local.
The unit will ask that some
thing be done promptly to re-
place the financial secretary,
whose refusal to obey the order
of the local membership TO re-
turn to work and do his job
makes IL necessary that he be
removed to make room for fl
nancisl secretary who will func-
ton.

JAW Die Casters

I'VE are not intervening in
the factional disagreement now
going on in Local IL.
We have a responsibility to
our own members and are in
terested solely in their welfare.
We are, however, in full sup
port of the International Union.
Our isues are economic and
are negotiated in true demo-
cratic manner with our en-
ployer."
Delegates representing $4,000
UAW-CIO Die Casting Workers
in plants scattered over most OF
the United States met in Gin
cinnati, Ohio over the week end
June 3rd and 4th to discuss
wages and contracts in the Die
Casting Industries. At the close
of the session they heard a re-
port from Richard Gosser, UAW-
CIO, Vice President from To-
ledo, Ohio. Mr.. Gosser is also
director of the Die Casting De-
partment of the UAW-CIO.
Gosser is the target of a bit
ter attack by the Toledo Blade
and an organized group from
the Toledo Chamber of Com
merce. The business interests of
Toledo are trying to unseat Cos
ser as a leader of UAW -CIO.
Upon the conclusion of his talk
to the Die Casting Council, Cos
ser received a tremendous ova-
ton.
A delegate from Toledo, Err
nest Love who represents the
7 o ! e d o Doehler-Jarvis Local
moved, ITO give Gosser a vote
of confidence and cndemn the
Toledo Blade, The To ! e d o
Chamber of Commerce and the
other anti-union elements who
are trying to destroy the UAW-
CIO in Toledo by attacking its
leader Richard Gosser and that
the Die Casting Council support
Gosser 100%." The vote car
ried UNANIMOUSLY.

Champion Leaders

we are a numerical minority
of the Executive Board of the
Champion Sparkplug unit, but
the last action of the unit per-
suades us that we speak here
for the vast majority of the rank
and file membership.
We declare that the member
ship is indignant that the noise
and hysteria whipped up by an
anti-labor monopoly newspaper
has interfered with our col
lective bargaining. our grievance
procedure and all of our union
business.
A numerical majority of the
board---a majority rapidly dwin-
dling--some of whom act from
that will not bear
searching examination. had the
temerity to make newspaper
release in the name of the Cham
pion membership.
That release was resoundingly
rejected at the first opportunity
the membership had to denounce
il.
There Is no revolt" in Cham
pion; there are only a few op-
portunists seeking to make po-
litical capital against the local
administration and Information
al Vice President Richard T.
Gosser---an advance they have
never been able TO make through
democratic processes, and have
only attained with the help and
active support of the Toledo
Blade.
The Champion Sparkplug unit
has made II clear that it sup
perts us completely in our de-
termination to fight Side-b -by-side
with Local IL and the interna-
tional against the disruptive
drive against our union In To-
edo.
The minority, helping no one
but the employers, has already
disqualified itself as trade union
leadership. The majority of the
board, acting with that
in the local, must car
ry that stigma.

champien Group

A noisy and mischievous mi
nority in Local IL has finally
achieved the peak of all they
hoped for. They are to be given
/. chance to spout their dis
ruptive poison before the full
executive board of the interna-
tional UAW-CIO.
Although the trade unionists
on the board will not long be
deceived by these assort e d
crackpots, theological adventur-
ers and fringe elements, we
want, nevertheless, to record our
protest thus elevating tn e e
people to a position of import
ance.
The Toledo Blade, having
glorified them by calling them
. revolt. can have them.
We, the overwhelming major
ity of the UAW-CIO in Toledo,
want 1t clearly and unmistak-
ably understood that this is a
sound, honest, democratic trade
union-well run, we'll led, and
with a fine and proud history
in lifting the level of wages and
contract conditions of the work
ing union men and women.
We are proud of our union,
embarrassed that in union so
big the unavoidable fringe ele-
ments sometimes make them
selves nuisances, and hope the
executive board will clean up
its taffic with these political op-
portunists and let us all get back
to the business of the union as

We especially liked the lines
that went: Perhaps the worst
fault reporters can possibly
have, and the old-timers were
not better than those today, is
to slant the news instead of be-
ing objective. Sometimes edi-
tors and owners are to blame
for this practice"
This is a quote lifted out of
context, in a worthwhile discus
sion of objectivity in the news,
and the role of the publicity
man in creating tendency to-
ward slanted stories.
1t is a refreshing bit of COM
mentary, and both the Toledo
Union Journal and the Toledo
Blade can learn from it.

1884 and 1850. In those hectic
days the attorneys for the COM
pany made their demands in the
courts leaving their paid agent,
one Bart Furey by name, on the
job in the union. Today the en-
ployers have apparently came to
the conclusion that they might
as we'll let their stooges do their
work for them in as much as
they are paying for it.
Further research among news
paper accounts of the hectic
days of 1884 bring out that the
methods and means of the en-
ployers and their attorneys, for
the bedevilment and harrassine
of organized labor, was appar-
emily without limit. Injunctions
were secure through our
courts. The number of pickets(
at plant gates were limited. And
Local 1888, UAW-FLU caught
hell in general from the press,
from the employers and from
the editorial writers. For those
of you who don't remember
Local 1884 was the fore-runner
of Local IL UAW-CIO. The
one thing that labor had in 1884
that was most invaluable to its
cause was public opinion. The
fact that the Get Gosser" cam
paign of the Toledo Blade is
falling flat on its face means
that public opinion Is still with
organized labor.
OF course there were other
headlines and news articles in
the papers in 1884. Notably was
an editorial in the daily paper
of June 4, 1894, which stated
Labor has gained a victory
here, and unles labor makes the
mistake of getting too bumptious
and asking too much in the fu-
ture-" To me this seems to be
bit of threat as to what
might happen if labor asks for
'too much" And who is to de-
eide what is "too much" Is the
Are a. Pension P an the too
much" mentioned in the edi-
torial. Is the security of the
worker, after he is too old to
work and too young to die, such
a big calamity that the press of
today and employer groups are
waging an all out fight to de-
stroy Gosser, Local IL and the
United Labor Committee.
Let me show in final quota
tion that history repeats: From
an editorial of May 18th, 1884.
"The labor troubles in the To-
ledo auto parts industry seem
on the surface to have taken on
a slightly opera-bouffe character
during the last few days" Might
/ add that after careful obSer-
walton of straight thinking
people leaving the so-called re-
volt. The Get Gosser" cam
paign has taken on a slightly
opera-bouffe character the last
few days. 1t would seem that
those who are bedding with
Block have received a decided
set back.
