The employe who partici-pated in the work stoppage in the Plant 2 mat room on Fri-day, June . 23, and was dis-charged because it constituted his second offense of this type, has been reinstated. Decision was reached on the case when it was determined he was not aware, at the time he was en-gaged in the second stoppage, that the · discharge penalty would be invoked. In order to insure that the disciplinary procedure in work stoppages in· violation of the contract is thoroughly under-stood, the company will notify individually each employe who has been suspended for par-ticipating in sitdowns since August 29, 1945, that a second offense of that nature will re-sult in his dismissal. In the future similar notifications will be sent to any employes who are suspended for the first time for engaging in illegal work stop-pages. Look, Golfers Who Shoot Under 85 Look!
