FALSE CONCLUSION % Let employees Union Shop They
it.
Evening star., 1952-05-13
BUT THE FACTS ARE: Less than

But THE FACTS ARE: Less than years ago
only 57129o of our employees voted for the
Union Shop. At that time many employees
told us how bitterly they resented this in
fringement of their right to belong or not to
belong to any given group or organization.
Further, since the strike began thousands of
members of the Commercial Telegrapher's
Union have repudiated its leadership by re-
turning to work. Thousands more would have
followed suit but for fear generated by CO.
ersion and intimidating tactics. In all fair
ness, we can have, and will have, no part in
forcing them to rejoin the CTU. We intend
to no longer offer this special concession to
Union committed on its own record to Gov
ernment ownership.

money offer, now.
BUT THE FACTS ARE: Only few months
ago Western Union employees got a tic raise
which required special Wage Sterilization
Board approval. Our pay scale, benefits and
working conditions are good by any standards.
Much of the muddle-headed thinking about
present day problems in labor management
relations is based on the belief that in every
contract negotiation wages must 60 UP. The
pie-in-the-sky attitude that money must be
spent whether or not it is available just
doesn't make sense,
