JAWS GUARANTEED
EMPLOYMENT PLAN

QUESTION: Would it be possible
for management to save money
under this Plan?
ANSWER Yes, If management
succeeds in StabiliZing employment
the savings may actually outweigh
the cost Of the guarantee. If peaks
and valleys in production are elm
mated, companies will not need to
maitain excessive floor space and
equipment that is actually used
only to meet peak production
loads.
Labor turnover will be reduced;
the expense of hiring and training
new workers will be cut down. The
added security for workers under
the plan will reduce the number
of workers who quit their jobs.
If management works with us on
the legislative front for measures
designed to assure full produc-
tion-full employment economy, in
creased profits from stable and ex-
panded markets will far outweigh
the costs of the guarantee.
The savings to the whole com
munity through elimination of the
tragic waste of unemployment
would be many tSnes greater than
any direct employer costs involved
in financing the plan.
QUESTION: How will the cost of
the guarantee against short work
weeks be handled?
ANSWER: The cost of guarantee
ing full weeks of work - the 40
hour guarantee will be met by
the employer on a pay-as-you-go
basis. The fact that management
can largely avoid short Work-WeekS
means that the 40-hour guarantee,
like call-in pay, will cost manage
ment nothing at all or practically
nothing if it plans properly. Man
agement will be required to bear
directly the full cost of its failure
TO plan a full week OF work for
all the workers it calls in to work
in any week. This will provide an
incentive for better planning.
The fiancing Of the guarantee
against short workWeeks is totally
separate from the financing of the
cost of guarantee payments to
workers on full-week layoffS. Costs
arising out of short work week
operation will not be credited
against the employers maximum
liability for payments under the
other parts of the plan.
Insurance companies now offer
employers policies which not only
reimburse the employer for dam

Proof of the effectiveness o1
labor's political education program
is the Republican sponsored Kile
Bill now on tnis states legislative
agenda. This Kile bill is an attempt
to handcuff and muzzle labor
politically.
Tmie was when the average
voter the day after election
couldn't remember the defeated
candidate But today the average
worker can identify, and even tell
you the names of most of the top
convention characters of even four
years ago!
What State Republicans fear
most and would like to break up
is the good work labor unions are
doing in seeing that members get
out to the polls and vote.
If the Kile Bill becomes the law
of Ohio, this is what it would
mean. to you:
l. The Kile Bill would prohibit
the expenditure of Union funds
for any and all political ac-
tivity.
2. II would prohibit officers from
soliciting voluntary contribu-
tions from other Union Mem
bers.
3. 1t would seriously weaken La
boris efforts to work for i'm
prOvements in our laws cover
ing unemployment compensa-
ton, workmens compensation,
social security, minimum wages,
safety and health, etc
a. 1t would virtually silence the
workers voice in political cam
paigns.
B. Any violations of the bill would
be crime punishable by fines
from $500 to $1,000 or imprison-
ment of not more than one year
or both!

Speaking to a labor-management
conference recently a physician
had this to say, Labor and man

them undressed and you can't tell

That remark gives both sides,
management and labor, something
to ponder.
Did You Know? The American
Federation of Labor was organized
IN 1886 by Samuel Gompers, an
Immigrant Jewish cigar maker;
Peter ]. Mcclure, an Irish Catholic
carpenter; and Adolph StraSser,

The name, American Federation of

Brother Granison, a Negro dele

fluordiation as safe and effec-

Such fluoridation means add
ing one part of sodium fluoride
to drinking water for every mil
lion parts of water. It has been
q controversial subject in health
ard scientific circles.
The findings were based on the
Ne wburgh-Kingston study. The
town of Newburgh. N. Y. 10
years ago began adding sodium
f1uoride to its public water, while
nearby Kingston did not. Each
town has a population of about
10000.

A similar test conducted in the

also showed that fiuoridation of
water appears harmless and ben

PAT Lesser Defeais
Mary Ann Downey
BY the Asseeioisd Press

oRMOND BEACH. Fla, Mar.
5.-Blowing hot and cold with
the changing weather. Pat Les
ser of Seattle defeated Mary Ann
Downey of Baltimore, 8 and 2,
today for her second successive
women's South Atlantic Amateur
Golf championship.

The tall, dark Seattle Univer-
sity junior won the last three
holes with pars, driving the
green on one and chipping in

Miss Downey, also the runner
up here in 1858. conceded the
match on the 34th hole after
flubbing her pitch shot and
watching Miss Lesser plop one
down IL inches from the cup.
1t was q see-saw match. Miss
Lesser, winner of the Helen Lee
Doherty title in Miami month
ago, took a Sup lead after nine
holes, watched it dwindle to l
up at the midway point and then
fell behind when Miss Downey

$40. which also will cut through
that property.
So Peacock, who approved the
Poor Farm property for a golf
course, and then vetoed the idea
when the highway plans were
known, is looking elsewhere,
along with other members of the
recreation staff.
Dan Sheehan, the National
Golf Foundation field represen-
tative, had to be taken to Rock
vile and shown the records for
the play at Sligo Park last year.
He didn't believe Peacock's
figure of 5000 nine-hole tickets
until the official figures were put
before him.
Sligo offers just about the
most reasonable golf in the
country at 40 cents for nine
holes daily and 10 cents on week
ends, even cheaper than its sis
ter course, Glenbrook, which has
81 and $3.50 rates for all day
play.
The courses have operated in
the black each year under
county management. You'd
have to say the county officials
were fortunate in taking ever
two country clubs. both of which
had moved farther out and left
ready-to-play layouts.
AS for Peacock, who they say
could have been the greatest
golfer this section ever pro-
duced, he has no regrets what
soever about not following the
tournament trail. His life (his
home near the club even has a
putting green in the Backyard
would be preferable to the lives
of most of the pros on the tour.
Roger, who will be "A in April,
is an active PEA member, and
for several years the Middle At
lantic section has been the top
contributor to the PGA relief
fund, with Peacock as chairman.
In fact, his fellow pros have
helped Roger top the closest sec
ton by more than SO to 81. He
and AL Houghton made such a
hit with a golf clinic in Iceland
last summer that they've been
invited back in July.
Some of Peacock's most priced
amateur golf trophies are locked
in a case in a corner of his shop.
Others are in his home, still more
with his mother and father. And
while Roger now almost prefers
to hunt or fish on an off day to
golf, there may be more cups.
Roger, jr., is IL years old, likes
the game, and had a 43 at Sligo
| last summer.
