We work for the welfare of all children, of course, and do all we can to help develop them into capable, patriotic citizens. They should be the best of all in training for successful American living. We should guard them against Communism. Our youth should learn early that life in our free country demands a high degree of self-control, of voluntary co-operation, of willing service, of courage, and sometimes of sacrifice. They should be shown the marvelous rewards which come from fulfilling these requirements for freedom, and should be given a glowing enthusiasm for living the American way of life. They should experience the inner joy of doing things for others, and find a firm foundation for happiness in abiding faith in God. In America it is the individual who counts. Our success as a nation is composed of our success as individuals. When we give our children training and practice in the things which will make them successful, happy individuals we are building strength for America’s strength. We should guard our youth against the evils of Communism. This Message Is Sponsored By The Following Business and Mahufacturing Firms

Sheriff Holbrook said, “We were there in case of violence on either side, and that’s the only reason. We were requested at 6:30 a. m. Monday by marshal George Bullock to be on the scene for standby duty only.

union, they said, “The strikebreakers were assembled at Fisher Field in Warsaw and transported from there to the Pierceton plant in motor bus No. 139 owned by the Indiana Motor Bus company.” The statement said, further, ‘The strike was precipitated by the refusal of the company to incorporate provisions for compulsory arbitration of grievances, voluntary check-off of union dues, partial elimination of the so-called merit system of wage advancement, and the insistence of the company on a provision granting full seniority rights to office and

supervisory personnel, transferred by the company into the bargaining unit.” Meet With Sheriff Union members met at Pierceton’s town hall with officers Bullock and Yorg and sheriff Sam Holbrook later Monday morning. Officer Bullock said he was trying to prevent any violence, and sheriff Holbrook said he felt it his job to see that no disorder occurred as the employees entered the plant. No explanation was given for the presence of Warsaw mayor Mike Hodges. Mr. Petty termed him “An ambassador without portfolio.” Officer Bullock told The Pierceton Press, “My job is to. provide protection, and that’s what I’m trying to do.” He later asked permission to deputize members of the Warsaw police force for duty at the Pierceton plant if it should be necessary. Charge Unfair Practices Last week J. D. Hill of South Bend, sub-regional representative for the UAW, said the charge of unfair labor practices by the company was filed by the local union with the National Labor Relations Board. The charge is based on the company’s refusal to bargain with the union. Hill contended a company official publicity stated “The union is making demands we cannot possibly meet,” but declined the union’s request to enumerate the demands that could not be met. The union called a strike July 9 in a breakdown of negotiations on a contract to replace an agreement that expired June 15. Plan Wednesday Meeting A third meeting since the strike began was set for Wednesday morning of this week. Federal mediator George Hupp of Fort Wayne will have charge of the meeting. Vincent Smith, executive vice president of the Arnolt Corp., told The Pierceton Press on Monday that the company is willing to get together to discuss the matter (of the strike) further at any time.” The Pierceton plant, in operation since 1958, produces commercial parts, marine spotlights and boat trailers. It also is doing work on several government contracts. PERSONAL The railings and roofs of the front porches of the Oswalt apartment house in Milford have been tom off.
