Birdie: Tebbetts Raps

Red Sox Pitchers

BOSTON, Oct. 2.-Birdie Teb-

linquents and moronic malcon-

staff are responsible for some
criticism Of Steve O'Neill, Boston
manager.
The Red Sox catcher defended
O'Neill last night for not using
him in some Of those big games

"a couple" Of Red Sox players

Tebbetts, who plans to be mar

friends. He praised O'Neill and
described the Red Sox manager as
zone Of the best friends I ever
had"
When he traded me from De-

After the veteran catcher's
speech, O'Neill. who was seated
at the head table, stood and shook
hands with Tebbetts.

Underdog Phes May Start Roberts Again in First Series Game
Baugh's Arm Injury
May Add 10 Woes Of
Redskins
By Lewis F. Atchison

Soundly beaten by the Pitts
burgh Steelers, 26 to Z, before
25,Oo8 fans yesterday at Griffith
Stadium, the Redskins may have
suffered another loss in the in
jury of Sammy Baugh. The So
year-old Texan injured his right
elbow in the fourth quarter, and
x-rays will be made today to de-
termine If it is fractured.
Baugh had difficulty cooking
his arm after the game and
WINGED with pain when it was
turned sideways. DR.. Robert A.
Moran, who examined the famed
arm, would not speculate on how
much damage was done until he
sees the X-rays.
Meanwhile, Coach Herman Ball
declared he'll stand pat on the
squad he brought home from
training camp touted as a title
threat after winning five straight
exhibition games Ball is unable
to explain and almost unwilling
to believe the teams sudden nose
dive, but he doesn't think the So
luton lies in firing and hiring.
Feeling let down and obviously
baffled by the Steelers' crushing
victory, their first over the Red
skins in Washington, Ball ex-
pressed confidence that the squad
will regain its stride and start
winning. He said rumors of trades
made a team jittery and hurt the
morale.
Ball Still Confident.
"a fellow gets jumpy If he thinks
he'll be sold or traded for making
a mistake" Ball said. "I don't
want my players to have that feel
ing. We beat some pretty good
teams on the road with the same
men who lost to the Steelers. but
think the team is better than 1t
has shown. still feel that we can
win with the men we have"
The Redskins gave the fans who
turned out for their home debut
little to cheer about after the first
period when Harry Gilmer tagged
Hugh Taylor with a scoring pass
that covered 70 yards. Except for
rare occasions, the blocking was
little better than last week when
Green Bay thumped the unhappy
warriors for their first league
defeat.
Worse, however. was Baugh's
quarterbacking with the Red
skins needing three touchdowns
to win and only six minutes left
to play. Sammy insisted on hit
ting the line and, although the
Tribe picked up approximately
80 yards, it was painfully ap-
parent that they couldn't win that
way. Baugh said that Pittsburgh
was using a defense that would
have invited interceptions. where

It is my sincere belief that the
fact we were able to intercept
four North Carolina passes to
their one and that we had the
slight edge in a marvellous punt
ing duel caused us to be in a
more threatening position. And
the ability OF the Notre Dame
line to stop the opponent on the
2-yard line was bound to have
an important psychological reac-
ton on both teams.
I believe the opinion generally
is shared that the team that can
capitalize on an important break
is the team that will win the

An Unfortunate Decision

TNHE DECISION of the AFL Executive
Il Council to turn down CIO President
Phillip Murray's invitation to form an all
inclusive united labor front on the politi-
cal and economic fronts is, indeed, unfor-
tunate.
No matter how we try to look at it, we
can only come up with one conclusion:
this decision shall not serve the best inter-
ests of Americas working people
For what did President Murray sug
gest to the American Federation of Labor?
And to the rest of the major labor organ
izations in the land, namely, the United
Mine Workers of America and the Inter
national Association of Machinists. These
last two organizations have agreed to ac-
cept President Murray's proposal
President Murray suggested that these
major labor organizations, together with
the CIO, form united labor front to fight
against the enemies of labor both politi-
cally and economically. That proposal GER
tainly was in line with the best interests of
every union member whatever his affilia-
ton. More, that proposal was and is in the
best interest of our country as a whole.
This is self evident. After all, if all of us
are united the goals that we seek shall be
reached much sooner than if we are di-
vided and, frequently enough, at logger
heads with each other.
VNO PROVE OUR point, let us take our
II own city for example. Why is Tom
Burke in Congress today? He is there be-
cause the unity of Organized Labor in To-
ledo put him there. Had we been divided
Mr.. Burke would never have been elected.
Take another example: the recent Plas-
kon strike. Why were the Plaskon workers
able to settle their long and bitter strike
on satisfactory basis? They were able to
do that because the Organized Labor
movement in Toledo stood b e h n the
Plaskon workers.
Because, and this is Of vital Importance
In this connection, the workers in Toledo
refused to fall for the unadulterated balo-
ney dished out to them by The Blade and
The Times
In short, they won because they were
united and because all union members in
Toledo stood solidly behind them
Unless the Executive Council of the
AFL learns this simple lesson and recon-
siders its decision, they will have played
into the hands of our enemies by breach
ing the united front of all Organized La
Dor that is an absolute essential to our fu-
ture welfare.

IN 1883 WILLIAM III. VANDF

TN 1883 WILLIAM H. VANDERBILT,
Il one OF Americas fabulous financial ty-
coons and at that time head of the New
York Central Railroad, decided to discon-
tinue one of the N.Y.C. fast mail trains to
Chicago The train didn't pay" was his
reason.
However, since the discontinuance of
TINS train meant cutting the service to the
people, Clarence Dresser, a Chicago Tri-
bune reporter, S k d the arrogant Mr..
Vanderbilt if he had consulted the people,
or had taken them into consideration be-
lore deciding to cut the train service.
Vanderbilt, with all the arrogance of
an oriental potentate brushed Dresser
aside with this clasic retort: "The public
be damned"
0NE WOULD THINK that today, 67
- years later, this type of arrogance
would no longer be Haunted in the face of
the people. But not so. Mr.. Henry T. Ma
ther, president of the struck Mather
Spring Co, employing $50 fellow Toledo
ans, is right back in 1888 together with
the equally arrogant Mr.. Vanderbilt.
The workers of Mather Spring Co.
struck few days ago because OF the dis
charge Of two of their fellow workers.
The workers of Mather Spring Co,
however, offered to have the LM.C. me-
date their dispute They did this feeling
confident that the L.MC. would render a
just decision
But Mr.. Mather has refused. AS mat
ter OF fact this is the fourth time he had
refused the offer of LMC. and the us.
Cancellation Service to help mediate the
dispute
What does he care about throwing $50
Ioledoans out of work. His salary is con-
tinuing. And even if it didn't he has plen-
ty stocked away to take care of his needs.
he won't need strike relief. Not even un-
employment compensation.
The irony of this situation is that those
public champions" - The Times and The
Blade - are both deafeningly silent in a
situation where an employer, in just about
SO many words, tells both his workers and
the people of Toledo to go to hell.
Toledo union journal. [volume] (Toledo, Ohio) 1942-current, 1950-05-12

will never come back again.
The union has made us into human beings
and the bosses have to recognize us such.
QUT ALL THIS is not enough. We cannot
- say that now we have reached the mill
enium" For we haven't Far from it. We still
have insecurity among our ranks. We still
have too many of our fellow workers roaming
the streets jobless, hunting for jobs that some
how just don't seem to exist.
"But why?" we must ask again and again.
Is 1t because we don't need what our
people can manufacture or build? Is it be-
cause we now have SO much of everything
that we don't need anything? Or is it because
we lack the factories, the mines, the mills and
railroads and thousand other places where
every able bodied worker could be put to
work?
No, none of these things. We need great
many things. In all lines How many of our
people need decent homes? How many of our
people could use a little clothing for
themselves and their children? How many
could improve on their diets? What about
automobiles and the endless number of house
hold appliances, those mechanical wonders
that could make life so much easier, SO much
happier for all of us? OF course, we need all
those things and more. The trouble is we can't
afford to buy them.
THERE is THE NEW FRONTIER that we
must break through. Somehow we must
find ways and means to fully utilize the man.
power and the machine power at our disposal
for the benefit of our people. Here is where
we find appalling and criminal waste all
around us. President Truman just the other
day declared that unemployment caused our
total output for 1949 to be some ten to thir-
teen billion dollars lower than IL would have
been il maximum production and employment
had been maintained"
WELL, MY FRIENDS, herein lies the new
w frontier for our people. If we can find
ways and means to break through to this new
land-a land of full employment-we shall
have solved the most devastating problem that
we have ever faced. And with the solving of
that problem-for solve it we shall, because
must in order to live-we will truly enter
into the promised land' that human beings
have been seeking since time began.
So, don't you see whenever we are forced
to strike for little more security-like pen
sions-we are plunging forward towards that
goal. Today it is estimated that over 2.5 mil
lion workers over 65 years of age are en-
ployed in American industry. Why shouldn't
these people be retired at decent pensions and
thus make way for 2.5 million youngsters who
are only too eager to start lifetime of useful
endeavor?
Anyway, think about these things for a
moment and you'll soon realize that there is
more to this business of unions than meets
the eye.
