AFL Establishes
Aluminium Office

The AF of L Aluminium Work.
ers have established offices in
Room IA OF the Bank of Columbia
Falls building.
In the Flathead in behalf of the
union is Patrick j. Reilly out of
the unions central office at ST.
Louis.
The AF of L hopes to become
the bargaining agent for operations
employees at the plant which is to
start production of aluminium In
July.
A number of union develop
ments are expected by both the
CIO and the AF of L during nex1
months. Likely next fall will be
an election called by the National
Labor Relations Board in which
operations employees will decide
whether they want the AF of L
CIO or possibly the Nine Mill a.
the bargaining agent. 1t is also pos
sible, though unlikely, that work
ers would prefer none of the un-
ions as bargaining agents.
Kenneth Stonehouse, organizer
for the CIO, in April opened Of
fees on Columbia Falls mai1
street in the Bose building for pur.
pose of organizing the plant.
Both Stonehouse and Reilly ar
making local contacts and as sool
