CO Issues Voting Record On First Session Of S1st Congress

on Congress which should
have been better" II said the
first session of the 81st Congress
was "a vast improvement over
the awful 80th' but the 81st
Congress fell down on (the) job
on many issues"
The CIO News Voting Record
attributed these failures largely
to the actions of the Southern
Democratic Republican coalition.
The CIO publication added
that its voting record "is neither
a black list nor a white list
nor a series of endorsements
for reelection" Endorsements,
it said, are made by CIO and
P Political ! Action Committee
groups in the states and Con-
gressionaI districts.
Favor Right" Voters
But 1t added that cts easy
to predict that labor's approval
is more apt to go to the ID Sen
ators and Ill Representatives
who cast no wrong" votes than
to the three Senators and %
Representatives who cast no
right votes"
The CIO News listing reveal
ed that six Senators-all Demo-
crats-had cast only one"wrong"
vote or participated in only one
wrong" pair: Downey (Calif),
Douglas (Ill), Chavez IN. M,
Leahy (R. ~, Kefauver (Tenn),
and OMahoney (Wyo). 1t cited
three Senators who had cast
two wrong" votes or partici-
pated in two wrong" pairs;
Taylor Cd. Ida.), Withers d.
Ky.), and Aiken (R. Vt.).
On the other hand, 10 SEN
ators were listed as having vot-
ed right" on only one of the
16 votes: Jenner (R. IndD,
Hickenlooper (R. la, Schoep-
pei (R. Kans), KEN (R, MOD,
Ecton (R, Mont.), Gordon (R.-
Ore), Martin R. Pa, Cain
(R. Wash.), Eastlsnd Cd. Miss),
and Byrd Cd. Va.).
Three other Republicans were
listed as having voted "right"
only twice: Capehart (Ind),
(Nebr.) and Watkins
(Utah...

on the people of the country to
"get prepared to exercise their
full voting strength at the polls
during the elections next fall.
We must have a Congress res
ponsive to the will of the majori-
ty of the people-a Congress
that will work earnestly for
better conditions for all our peo-
pie"
much more" Murray added,
"than our own domestic welfare
is at stake-because of the posi-
tion of world leadership our
nation has assumed since the
end of the war.
This leadership-unless we
are to forfeit it-requires that
we set examples which those in
other lands are willing to follow.
1t requires that we put our own
house in order"

CHICAGO NPA) - An esti-
mated 100000 persons in Illinois
are earning less than so cents
an hour, according to Frank An
nunzio, director of the Illinois

that the United Mine Workers
we're indulging in unfair labor
practices and urging Denham to
ask for an injunction.
The association charged the
UNIV was using the three-day
week as a coercive measure and
indulging in other It j o n to
force coal operators to sign an
illegal contract, and that the un-
ion was refusing to bargain in
good faith.
A spokesman for the NLRB
said Denham was weighing"
the charges and was referring
them to the NLRB's Baltimore
office for investigation. UNIV
spokesmen pointed out it was
the southern operators, not the
union negotiators, who walked
out of contract parley in No
vember.
Meanwhile, it was reported
that soft coal operators from ali
sections were bringing strong
pressure on anthracite owners
to block an anthracite settlement
now being negotiated in New
York. However, the union point
ed out that as of Dec. %, oper-
ators producing 16,238,000 tons
a year had met union demands
for a wage boost of 95 cents

into the UNIV welfare fund.
This represents three to four
percent of that part of the in

which expired June 80, was IL

Egg Price
Support Cut

WASHINGTON (LPA) - The
Agriculture Dept. has announced
it will support farm prices of
eggs in 1850 at the average of
81 cents a dozen, eight cents be-
low this year. Officials said that
should bring retail prices down
8 to 10 cents, and hopes con-
sumers will use any such saving
in buying more eggs. Otherwise
Uncle Sam will have to buy up
more, and he already has on
hand 2.500.OOO.0OO.

the CIO.
To Begin In Earnest
Mr.. Seren said the let up
was due to the holidays and
now it will begin in earnest
to replenish the fund to fight
the so-called "Citizens Commit
tee To. Save Toledo's Payrolls"
who are using newspaper space,
radio time and through the daily
newspaper columns attempting
to tell Toledoans that the pen
sion plan will wreck Toledo.
The funds from the pension
publicity fund is being used to
aquaint the public of the true
facts about an area pension plan,
Mr.. Seren said.
In All CIO Plants
Collections will be taken up
in all CIO plants and in many
other union shops, he said with
all donations being voluntary.
He said that the collection
plan is nothing new in Toledo
because the salvation committee
is collecting funds or seeking
funds from industrialists to fight
the pension program.
MIR. Seren said that all shop
committeeman have the cans for
the voluntary collections and a
report of the donations will be
published in the Toledo Union
Journal.
Well Appreciated
He said contributions, regard
less how small in denomination,
will be welcomed to fight this
salvation committee who are
spreading false propaganda as
to the true facts of the area pen
sion plan.

piously said the Southern opera

In Pittsburgh, George Love,

the run-off election after hav-
ing faced three unions who
were out to beat the UAW
for representation of the Auto
Lite workers. The UAW beat
out the AFL, the International
Machinist and prevented the
company independent uni o n
from gaining the necessary ma
jority to gain the right as BAR
gaining agent.
Organizers Fine Work
AS a result of the fine work
of the UAW organizers who had
to make house calls while the
other unions seemingly did not
have difficulty to talk to work
ers on the job, it necessitated
the run-off election and the
UAW group is confident it will
be a victorious fight for the
UAW.
The organization drive in the
Auto-Lite plant, under the di-
rection of Richard Gosser, In
ternati o nal UAW-CIO Vice
President and Director of the
Auto-Lite Council garnered $50
votes in the first balloting for
a union shop among the four
unions represented on the bal
lot. The lam received but 215
and AFL III votes. The Inde-
pendent Union which practically
had a free hand in the shop in
the organization drive received
TAG votes.
1,147 Cast Votes
There were 1,147 votes cast
from an eligible list of 2,300.
There were no void ballots and
112 votes were challenged. OF
the amount cast only "a voted
for mo union"
Since the count, which re-
quires a run-off election, the
UAW organizers turned on full
steam in contracting the Auto
Lite workers in their homes to
explain the advantage of being
UAW member.
Their results, despite the
handicap encountered in the
company efforts to keep out the
UAW, will be determined some
time tonight after the ballots are
tabulated.
