as trained and valuable shield
against the ravages of natural dis
aster.
For these reasons, appeal to
the citizens of this community to
support Fundamentally the coming
effort of their National Guard to
enlist new members. In this way
those who do not serve actively
can give support to an organiza-

service for us all.

Would Authorize
Unemployment Pay

The Ohio Bureau of Unemploy-
ment Compensation has been ask
ed to re-rule on the nature of the
Westinghouse strike. At first de-
fined as a labor dispute" by the
bureau, the union is asking that
the strike be termed a lockout" "
according to Columbus news sourc-
es. Such a definition of the matter
would entitle the strikers to unem-
ployment compensation under Ohio
law.
This request was made by the
union following action in Pennsyl-
vania which changed the status of
the Westinghouse dispute there
and made striking Pennsylvanians
eligible for jobless pay.
News sources said Tuesday that
James r. Tichenor, administrative
head of the Ohio BUG. who heard
the labor side of the dispute earl
ier, would meet with Westing-
house officials on Tuesday at 1:30
pm. Tichenor was quoted as say
ing that the arguments may take
some time.
A ruling favoring the unions po-
sition would alter cases here in
many instances. Results of the
long strike are apparent in homes
and businesses all over Madison
County, although many of the
workers from this area have re-
turned to their jobs despite at
tempts to discourage such action.
Federal mediators again stepped
into the Westinghouse strike as at
tempts to settle the four-month old
labor dispute were resumed in
Washington on Monday. DR..
George w, Taylor, chairman of the
War Labor Board during World
War II and David L. Cole, former
federal mediation service director,
were reported as the mediators in
this attempt.
