I've heard the expression Being
left at the Church. Now we can
add a new one - Being left at the
gas station" To get the whole
story ask LeOna Franck about it.
Because of the unusual situation
her car did not get the attention it
should nave last Friday, but she
says that Mr. Nau understood and
did the work Saturday. Leona
would have liked to have found a
, ball-bat but there's no use for
them, in the plant. Who has more
fun in life than Leona?
Alvin Faus has returned from
his visit to Cleveland.
Florence Creager reports that
Oscar is doing some better.

Our Standard Products Company
is doing alright money-Wise and |
believe all people employed in the
plants can take a pat on the back
for their part in making possible
this latest report. Net profits to-
tailed 1882, 1873 for the nine
months ended March 81 - a gain
of 24ao over earnings for the same
period a year ago Sales showed
, only a 1870 rise, so it is evident
that workers more than made up
for wage inireases by inrreased
] efficiency. Mentioned in the COM
pany's report was "the new order
for several million dollars wo1sl
of tank tracks at the Port Clinton
Division"
We saw a number of friends in
Washington that we remembered
! from last summers summer school
| They came from all parts of Ohio
and their first inquiry was always
of Bob Reider. Seems Bob has
sparked interest all over the state.
They say we here in Ottawa Coun-
ty should certainly be proud Of
our "faVorite SON. candidate and
his progressive platform.
Bob did not mince words in
Cuyahoga Falls and Barberton
when ne voiced his opposition to
so-called "right-towork" legislation.
He said "right-to-work" is mis-
nomer for bills that are intended to
wreck unions. A better name would
be 'right-to-slave" bills.
Gov Lausche of whom Bob has
, been openly critical, told a press
conference in Los Angeles that he
would be in favor Of sucL law.
Bob Reider said, 'If | am elected
| Governor | will have no hesitation
in vetoing such bills promptly" He
further explained, collective bar
gaining is the basis of progress in
Ohio because it has raised wage
standards to the highest degree of
prosperity we ever had"
Clergymen of all faiths all over
our nation have voiced opposition
to the vicious ''right-to-work" legis
lation.
Secretary of Labor James P
Mitchell says, "Such laws are
strictly meant to break unions
They do no good | am against
them. l tell you sincerely sucE
laws should be repealed"
