Edit-oJ'ia} COIllIllent
By Charles H. Pillard, Internationa/ President
Organized labor has a good opportunity to
be a leader in helping to develop a tru e
sense of values for all citizens.
. - -...,,,..- -... .. At the 29th Convention of
ou r Brotherhood in Seattle a
few weeks ago, the delegates
and guests in attendance heard
speakers from the electrical in-
dustry, both labor and man-
agement, top labor leaders,
educators, and politicians. The
message delivered by aU. in a
common ~p.n$p., praised the
IBEW for its contribution to the
betterment of the electrica l industry, for its loyalty
to the principles of the organized labor movement
and for its belief in the traditions of free democratic
nations such as the United States and Canada.
The majority of those who addressed the conven-
tion are very knowledgeable of the ISEW's contri·
bution to improving living conditions for all citizens
of both countries. Sy constantly encouraging im·
provement from top leaders down through the ranks
of the entire membership and by encouraging the
membership to participate not only in union affairs.
but in civic activities that make the community,
state, and nation better for all citizens, progress
has been achieved by the ISEW. There is no reason
why the relationship between being a good union
member and a sincere patriot cannot be continued
by ISEW leader s and members.
Our SruUu,:!rhood [reeds the support of all its
members in making our union stronger and greater
in unity to achieve the basic objects which have
been passed on from past generations to the pros-
ent. At the same time, we who beli eve in the free
democratic processes under wh ich we govern our·
selves must be just as strong in protecting the
system of rules and regulations we call civil law.
2 THE ElECUICAl WORKERS '
Today many people Ctre quite perplexed at the
issues that face our nations. There is great can·
fusion in trying to decide what course to follow in
seekin g solutions to the many problems thDt arc
besieging even the most intelligent and right think·
ing individua ls and groups .
[conomic conditions warrant discussion in every
place where rational people meet to honestly look
out for the good and welfare of our nations as a
whole. This is somewhat hard to do for certain men
without being swept into varying degrees of self
interest.
Men being what they are often add to Ihp. r.on-
fusion of the times by identifying their own nar·
row interests with the supposed interests of their
country.
The reaction to the issues. as they become more
intensified. is destroying orderly procedures in
many places. The conservative. out of fear. be-
comes more conservative and the radical becomes
more radical and the liberal becomes ultra·liberal.
Many of each group find ample opportunity to be·
come anti-social and refuse to live with the prin·
ciples of democracy, f ree discussion , honest faith
in those who through experience can remain cool
and will strive to do what is best for alt, and not
hot·headedly widen the gap between what is good
and what is insensible.
Organized labor has a good opportunity to be a
leader in helping to develop a true sense of values
for all citizens to appraise what should be done
to provide a method of living together while seeking
peace and happiness for all. The ISEW for many
years has followed the ethical codes of rea lity and
has won hard-fought battles against it s adversaries
and has managed to come out on top without reo
sorting to radicalism or reactionary activities or
philosophies.
The membership of ou r great Srotherhood should
never be zealous enough in trying to reform or
effect economic conditions by forgetting the l1fin-
ciple of not forsaking that which it knows is good .

 SAFETV TIPS
for You and
Think Safety and Hunt Safely
~ More than 2.000 persons me
killed needlessly every ye:,r because
of ignorance or careless ness in
handling firc:mns. Now, Juring the
hunting season, is an appropriate
lime to s top and th ink of this.
Every gUll is a poten ial h:llard,
when it is loaded. The ability 10
handle it safely is morc imporlan!
than the ability to be a sharpshooter.
Stay alert and safely-conscious by
keeping the fo llowing points In
mind.
P r(!cIJ ulio ns in Using F irl'lJ rms
Treat every gun liS if it were
loaded. The first thing 10 do in
h:mdling any gu n is to point it in ;1
safe direction ;lIld exami ne it. Be
sure both the gun and magazine arc
empty. Then , c heck 10 sec i f the
bore is ope n. If the gun has a
tubu lar magaz ine or clip for cart-
ridges, withdraw the tube or clip
Hnd examine it to be sure there is
no concea led cart ridge which might
be freed hy a sudden ja r.
Use the proper shells. Shells that
,IfC too small may slip into the
barrel and cause the gun to burst
when ammunition of the righ t size
is fired beforc the harrel is cleared.
Thc proper sile or caliber of am-
munition is generally stamped on
the b,l rrel of pblOls, revolvers, a nd
riOes. In the c:lse of shotgun s, the
size is delCrmined by the ga uge
sta mped on the gun.
Examine the gun carcfu ll) berare
loading to be Sllrc that the barrel
and aclian (lfC frcc from any ob-
struction which might cause the gUll
to burst or back -nash when firl!O.
