Ofticers of the local carpenters’ unior | insist that capable men have been fired on no other workers government contracts here for for from other states. Construction company officials say they have made every possible effort to put workers trom other sections, but in some cases have found it necessary to go out of the city for | bosses when they found no one here whe could handle the work satisfactorily. Key West workers who have struggled no construction work to be done obviously deserve the first chance at any job which turns up here. Most of them have been taking odd jobs or leaving their families to work in other places in order to maintain their homes in Key West. If the union charge that company of- | ficials fire the men without reason is true, then something should be done about it at once, From union Business ence Higgs’ figures, it follows, Manager Clar- however, | that some non-Key Westers will have to re- | main here, since there would still be some | 45 openings if every Key West carpenter | were put to work and every out-of-towner taken off the jobs. Higgs estimates there are 45 union carpenters from this city with- out employment, while he puts the num- ber of carpenters from other cities who are working here at close to 90. Some non-Key Westers, therefore, are likely to remain at work here unless the government is willing to slow down the construction jobs to a peint where local workers can complete them without out- side help. As far as the foremen are con- cerred, it hardly ms reasonable to estab- t rule that no worker from another section can be promoted to cne of the better paying jobs. Promotions ought to be based entirely on merit with no discrimination in either direction. We hope local workers get the justice If anyone from any of the com- been discriminating against than that they panies has Both sides will get farther, however, if they refrain from abusive statements and try to approach a_ reasonable settlement which will allow Key Westers an even break. GIVE AID TO A BRAVE PEOPLE We understand that an effort will be | made in Key West to raise funds for the | relief of Greek civilians who have suffered as a result of Italy’s invasion. Surely the people of Greece deserve the generous support of democratic nations and the people of this community will be honoring themselves in making a generous contribution to the Greek Relief Fund which will assist homeless victims of Axis aggression, There was a day when the civilized world was the beneficiary of the culture and intelligence of the men and women of Greece. Today the fighting men of modern Greece have given an example of valor that reflects the ancient glory of their native land and, once more, places civilization in the debt of a brave people. When the effort to funds for Greece is made here let us gladly contribute a creditable sum to be used for the relief of the stricken civilian population of a worthy raise nation.
