THE STATE AFL CONVENTION On the eve of the opening of the 1946 convention of the North Carolina Federation of Labor The Journal predicts that the meeting this year will be one of the greatest ever held in North Carolina. Many subjects are to be taken up and discussed by the delegates from all over the State and these subjects are of paramount interest to every member and nonmember of organized Labor. They will, in the main, no doubt have to do with organization work in our great manufacturing State, where thousands upon thousands of workers, both organized and unorganized, have manifested unusual interest during the past several weeks in the Ameri can Federation of Labor’s South-wide organizing campaign to enroll 1,800,000 new members. In its deliberations, The Journal knows full well the con vention will pass upon its problems efficiently. This has been the record of the past conventions. The North Carolina workers have gone through some stormy days in years gone by; they have met their problems fearlessly and solved them sanely; they have contributed to better labor-management relations through the process of binding themselves together into a business organization of their own choosing, through which they better were able to deal with their employer on a higher plane. All of this has contributed to the economic advancement of not only the workers themselves, but also untold confusion and inefficiency have been eliminated through the more enlightened system of employer-employe relationships. May the 1946 session of the North Carolina Federation of Labor close with its marvelous record of past years un scathed, and may the coming year be witness to a North Carolina Federation of Labor more united than ever before. The Journal wishes you Godspeed in your deliberations.
