Work is still good. The demand
for men has slowed down, but we
have very few out of work.
On Friday night, June 28, we
will hold an election for one mem-
ber of the Board of Trustees, and
one member of the Board of Arbi-
tration.
At the June 28 meeting there
will also be a resolution to be
voted on proposing a raise in dues
to put another man in the field.
Mark this date on your calender
and he here.

and regret we note the passing of

There has been no change in
negotiations with the company
since the last union meeting, so
there is nothing new to report.
The company is waiting to find out
if the union is still as firm in its
position as it was last month. For
this reason it is necessary for all
members to attend the union meet-
ing next Tuesday, June 26, 8 p.m.,
at the Labor Temple.
We are sponsoring a TV pro-
gram Sunday, June 23, on Channel
4 from 4 to 4:30 p.m. We are go-
ing to present all of the facts per-
taining to our controversy with
DP&L Co. We have already ad-
vertised every other way possible,
but I believe we can give more de-
tails on this type of TV program.

by Ernest Holmes, a Negro who
had complained before the New
York State Commission for Hu-
man Rights that he had been de-
nied membership because of his
color.
The dropping of charges on a
joint stipulation to the commis-
sion, with the agreement of
Holmes, came in the third day of
hearings before a three-man hear-
ing board. By that time, under
cross-examination by union at-
torney Emil Schlesinger, Holmes
was shown to have claimed that
without a single day of previous
experience in the craft, he was a
qualified cutter on the day he was
hired by Primrose Foundation.
CIO Executive Council, and Dubin-
sky flatly denounced the charges
as "untruthful irresponsible, a
gross exaggeration, unfair, imagi-
native and done in a spirit of re-
venge.”
The sole commitment of the
union in the joint stipulation to the
state commission indicates that
Holmes' claim that he was a cut-
ter—the claim on which he based
the charges against the ILGWU
—was entirely without foundation.
The commission agreed that
Holmes is not in fact a trained
and qualified cutter. In the stipula-
tion in which it joined, Local 10
was directed only as follows:
"In line with its oft-asserted
regular and general policy, as

have enough of the members

them know their thoughts and de-

There was an open letter in the
Journal this month under vox pop
which I hope our members will
read. This concerns our wages
and conditions.
Art Watherwax recently had a
very nice article in the Journal.
This concerned the apathy of our
membership. Our members just
don’t want to be interested. All
of them should start coming out
at every union meeting and start
raising cain about our conditions
and things that go on. I don’t care
how small it is or how much I dis-
agree with it. This is what makes
a good union.
