B A TO HOLD MEETING THURSDAY The Woman's lienetil associa lion has announced an interest ing mi'i'ling tor Thursday alter noon at two o'clock at the Mac cahce hall. 1 he now olliccrs w ill lie in charge and !! members arc llf'.v'd lo ! present FREE DEFENSE STAMPS For Every 20 Usable Hangers (MM I You are free to join or not to join a union, as you wish. The Company fully respects this privilege. Your opportunity with the Company will be the same whether you are a union member or not. 2 You do not have to join a union to work at Wards. 3 Wards is opposed to all forms of the closed shop. Liberty requires that an employee be free to join, to refuse to join, or to resign from a union without losing his job. Liberty requires friar an employer be free to employ the person best suited for the work. 4 The President of the United States has commanded Wards to accept for its Chicago plant a form of closed shop called "maintenance of membership". Under this form of closed shop, employees are not free to resign from the union without losing their jobs. Wards is compelled to discharge every union member who fails to maintain his union membership in good stand ing (non-payment of dues, etc.). This making of membership in a union a condition of hold ing a job is the closed shop. 5 Wards did not voluntarily agree to this requirement. Wards believes it to be illegal and un economic. Wards has accepted it under duress and only because the President of the United States expressly so ordered. 6 Wards is the only retailer in the United States upon whom the President has imposed any form of the closed shop. It is unfair to impose burdens upon Wards and not -upon those with whom it is in competition. If the retail industry is to be subjected to the closed shop require ment, it should be legislated by Congress and applied uniformly against ail retail establishments. 7 The National War Labor Board has now called a hearing to determine whether the em ployees at Wards' six large stores in Denver, Detroit and New York City must belong to the union in order to hold their jobs. Wards will continue to oppose this illegal and uneconomic requirement. Wards will reject any demand of the Board that employees be discharged because they fail to maintain their union membership. 8 The President of the United States has no authority to order Wards employees to remain union members in order to hold their jobs. Congress is the only law-making authority. Congress has passed no law requiring the closed shop. MONTGOMERY WARD and COMPANY SEWELL AVERY Pruidtnt o UMPQUA CLEANERS 231 N. MAIN PHONE 472 "J
