Voted August 6
Tills strlko vote was taken at
a meeting August 8, cullod by
tho issuance of a circular that
wus unsigned and circulated to
nil operations in this area,
Lovuy wild.
During the general discussion
lit this meeting, some ono sug
gested that a strike vote be
token, heuleclnrcd, of tho em
ployes In kho mill. This wus
done by u show of hnnds with
out determining whether thuso
voting woro actually working lit
tho mill and It has been estab
lished thut somo voted who wero
employed In other places, ho
uddud. No record In the min
utes of the meeting shows the
number uf voters, us well as
the denial of the privilege of
those working on tho night shift
to vote, Luvny said.
The constitution of tile IWA
clenrly stales thut the muttor of
voting on strikes must bo by se
cret ballot, which point again
brings out the illegality of the
strike so called. Lovay claimed.
Lovay quoted from the last

Tho IWA-CIO local did not
avail itself of this machinery,
Lovuy said, and as a result dis
regarded all other opportunities
that might have produced re
sults, Tho machinists union,
which also holds an agreement
In the plant, was nut consulted
us tu tho Intentions of the IWA
CIO prior to the action taken,
although the IWA-CIO knew
full well Unit an action of Hint
nature directly affected tho ma
chinists. In conclusion Lovuy dcEliircd
that: "Wc firmly believe that
when an agreement is written
und ratified by tho membership
involved, duly signed by the
proper representatives and for a
given period of time, that whut
Is embodied In thut agreement
must be lived up to until tho ter
mination dale. All grievances
that may develop must tako tho
steps us outlined In tho agree
ment which are set up to correct
such complaints. Unforeseen
sltuullons not covored by the
agreement must be met by mu
tual consent of both parties,"
"We will now or In the future
respect and support any picket
lino ur legitimate fight that is
directed agulnsl any company
and done us prescribed in the
laws uf tho organization,, In the
Woycrhacuscr case it has been
recommended to the member
ship involved that they return
to work In a body, feeling that
wo arc doing the work assigned
to us and no other. The mem
bership involved voted by secret
ballot to return to work at once,
confining our activities to main
tenance and the fulfilling of our
contract obligation."
