esteem in which the CIO is held by
in gshortly after a six to one victory
of the CIO Electrical workers at RCA
in Camden ,the world’s biggest radio
plant, it is also another resounding re-
buke to the pitiful union-splitting at-
tempts of the American Federation of
Labor. In both these cases the CIO
unions had organized the workers and
won earlier elections which should
have entitled them to sole collective
bargaining rights without question. In
the case of RCA the CIO even had a
contract. But AFL unions entered the
picture in both cases in an attempt to
break the CIO industrial unions chos-
en by the workers, and the Labor
Board called new elections to put the
would-be union-busters on the ballot.
The results speak for themselves. At
both Armour’s and RCA, the vote for
the CIO increased tremendously in
the second elections over ‘the first. So
far from weakening the CIO unions,
the AFL splitters succeeded only in
strengthening them and in demonstra-
ting their own weakness and futility.
These elections continue the trend that
has been in evidence for some time. It
is a trend of overwhelming and ever-
increasing preference for CIO repre-
sentation on the part of American in-
dustrial workers.
DEER “THROWS”
STORE FOR LOSS
Latrobe.—A five point buck de-
livered itself last week for a Thanks-
giving repast that will cost a furniture
company about $1,000.
The buck dashed down the street
shortly before noon and, as startled
residents rubbed their eyes, dived
thruogh the Miller and Biggs store's
plate glass window.
While the deer was crashing throu-
gh the interior, Patrolman Omar Wel-
shons fired twice at it. Then the buck
plunged through a heavy glass win-
dow and jumped into a store across
the street, wrecking a Christmas dis-
play.
Finally Thomas Miller, druggist,
destroyed the animal with a rifle,
