not help in the attempt to repeal
the Tlaft-Hartley law.
"Maine workers,’* he said, "must
not be permitted to forget this fact
on election day and a strong LLPE
is needed in Maine to make sure
that members of the AFL in Maine

No More District Meetings
By action of the Executive
Committee of the NCFPOC, ail
future meetings of the North
Carolina Federation of Post Of
fice Clerks will be called just
that. Any references to sections
or districts of the state will be
omitted and such meetings will
be open to all North Carolina post
office clerks and their invited
guests such as the letter carriers.
Postmasters, Supervisors, Rural
Letter Carriers, etc.
Heretofore it has been custo
mary to advertise a meeting in
the western part of the state,
for example, as a meeting of the
Western District of the NCFPOC.
That is no morej Any meetings
of the NCFPOCkkregardless of
location, will be open to all North
Carolina Federation! its and la
lieu of sectional prefixes, such
meetings will become known as
“seasonal” meetings of the state
organization. The constitution of
the state Federation presently
provides for one annual state
convention and three meetings per
year. Hence a meeting scheduled
to be held in September will be |
advertised as a 'Hate summer" |
or "early Fall” meeting and an-;
other in January may be called
a “Winter” meeting and so on.
Sectional references to state
Federation meetings have proved
in the past to be misleading and
it is for this reason that the
broader term was adopted.
It should be clearly understood
that the North Carolina Feder
ation of Post Office Clerks is in
no way affiliated with any such
groups which may be known aa
the Eastern. Central or Western
North Carolina Postal Employees
Associations. While the State
Federation recognises the poten
tial advantages of such organisa
tions, it has been decided by the
Executive Committee that * state
Federation funds will not permit
indiscriminate patronv* of such
Association meetings ay state If
flcers and that the interests of
the NCFPOC can best be served
through meetings called under
its own sponsorship and direction.
The Executive Committee of the
NCFPOC is anxious, however,
that members will not construe
this to mean that such meetings
as may be called by sectional as
sociations should not be attended,
but that the state Committee can
no longer afford to underwrite
them.
OCTOBER FACTORY EARN
INGS DROP M CENTS
WEEKLY
Washington, D. C. — Weakly
earnings for the 11.4 million pro
duction workers in the Nation's
manufacturing establishments av
eraged (56.26 in mid-October, de
creasing about half a dollar from
the Sentember level. These pre
liminary estimates were made
available by the Labor Depart
ment’s Bureau of Labor Statistics
This was the first interruption
of the slowly rising trend since
last April. While the average
workweek of 39.7 hours in Octo
ber showed little change from the
previous month, hourly earnings
fell 1.1 cents to (1.39.
The earnings decl ne was large
ly due to the direct effect of the
steel strike, some curtailment in
the automotive industry, and a
seasonal expansion of the lower
paid segments in non-durable
goods industries.
Strike idleness among the relav
tively high paid steel workers
brought hourly earnings in the
durable goods industries down two
cents to $1.46. As a result,
weekly earnings fell to $68.11 to
mid-October.
Weekly earnings in the non
durable goods industries were
$6186 in October — the second
highest month on record.
