The boys in the pressroom really mean business. Proof: A chief steward and several others walked into the time office and asked why the payroll clerks and credit clerks were not wearing buttons. They're wearing 'em now. Also two new applications for membership in the UAW.
Who said no speedup at Cadillac?
When a man is kind to a dog the pup usually acknowledges it by wagging his tail. In all the animal kingdom that I know there are only two animals that don't show appreciation. One is a rat and the other a snake. There is just such a man in S-3—or is he a man?
How can a man get 100 percent if he has no trucker? If someone SHOULD happen to get 100 percent, why can't he have 10 percent added on for doing his own trucking?
None of my business but all you men in S-22 who have been transferred and cut in wages, attend the mass meeting next Sunday and hear one of the Heraldeers. I'll tell ALL MY FRIENDS.
When is that man on the washing machine going to get caught up?
