D Not if the CIO abides by its pledged word, given only last spring. # Question: What would be the general effect on the country of a steel strike? Question: Why did they want a lohg-term contract? Answer: Over 40 percent of all the factory workers in the country earn their living by making steel into useful pro ducts for American life. A shut-down of the steel indus try w r ould be a disastrous blow to reconversion and would cause a serious loss in both wages and industrial produc tion at a time when they were most needed. Answer: In the Union’s own words before the War Labor Board, ‘The Union's request for a termination date of October, 1946, is not made capriciously or pressed here for bargaining purposes. It represents the considered view of the Union that only such a term wlil adequately serve the needs of stability.” Question: Is it true that the Steelworkers Union has pledged itself not to strike? Question: Did the recent strike vote violate the contracts? Answer: No. Only an actual strike would violate them. Answer: Yes. Every contract which the Union has signed this year with the various steel companies has a clause wherein the Union agrees not to strike during the life of the contract. a: Question: Haven’t there been strikes already during the life of contracts ? 1! M- Question: Are those contracts still in effect? Answer: Yes. They were signed iif the spring of 1945 to run Answer: Yes. There were 998 strikes in steel plants during the fcastj year alone. They were mostly local strikes which the Union characterizes as “wildcat,” but they meant a big loss in production. | „ ., until Qctober, 1946. .r Question: Does the end of the war justify changing the contracts ? Question: Who signed, for, the Union? Answer :Tts international officials—Philip Murray, Van Bitt ner, Clinton Golden and others—and the local Union heads at the various plants. Answer: No: The bond was sealed on both sides and should be kept whether timels be good or bad. Thq steel com panies are continuing to live up to these agreements. If a strike is called, it will in clear violation of the exist ing contracts. T Question: Is there no “escape clause” by which eitherAside could erid the agreements? _ v V A strike ifa the face of existing contracts would shatter any Answer: No. The Union demanded a fixed, long-term con tract and got it. •.AJ DV confidence in the validity of union agreements in the sted 1'-' i ■"f industry. t- J .
