LOUIS, Monsanto Chemi cal company late Wednesday in vited the federal government to take over operation of its strike bound Monsanto, 111., plant to insure production of vital war needed chemicals for the army and navy. In a telegram to President Truman, the company said it was unable to keep the, plant operating in the face of "flagrant union irresponsibility." The big chemical plant at Monsanto," 111., has been closed down since last Thursday night when approximately 45 pipe fit ters walked out in a jurisdiction al dispute with the iron workers and immediately established a picket line around the company's gates. Approximately 1,200 work ers were thrown out of employ ment. In the telegram to President Truman, the company said it had signed annual contracts with the chemical workers un. ion of the A. F. of L. since 1937 calling- for no strikes and no lockouts. "The company has scrupulously observed the spirit as well as the letter of these contracts," the tele gram said. "Despite these signed agreements, however, there have been in the past 21 months "15 work stoppages at this plant, ev ery one oi which has been a breach of contract." Picketers have refused entry to the maintenance men and will not even allow the plant manage ment to enter the premises, the president was told. No demands have been made on the company in the present dispute, the tele gram said. "Instead,'' the president was told, "it is purely a dispute within union ranks which only the union can settle and only action by the union itself can bring the men back to work. This flagrant disregard by the union for the terms of their contract and for the demands of the war program leaves us but one alternative. "We respecfully request you to take over this plant in the name of the United States gov ernment in order to bring about the immediate resumption of work on materials which the arm ed services are calling on us to furnish." The telegram admitted that "this is no easy decision or re quest for us to make. We prefer to manage and operate our own plants in keeping with the tradi tional spirit of private enterprise but we know the urgent need for pur products and are determined that they shall be made available, even at the cost of loss of con trol of our plant." "He knew I .was right over his head, but that didn't stop him. I knew he was a messenger because he was carrying a rolled-up bun dle of papers in his right hand, like a relay baton. "Our artillery had disrupted ordinary means of communica tion, so I hung around to see what would happen. About 10 minutes later the same runner appeared and ran all the way back to his starting point at ! top speed. "That was enough for me. I spotted the command post for the artillery and five minutes later it was just a lot of smoke and rubble. Then I hung around for the last event. "Sure enough, the Jap athlete hustled back with another mes sage. His chest was out and I could see him sneering at me as he ran along. Every now and then, he'd put on an extra spurt of speed to show me he could keep going all day. "Finally he got within sight of what had been the command post. I could see him slow down a lit tle, but he had been ordered to the headquarters, and that was where he was going. When he got there, he looked at the ruins a long time, scratched his hrad and looked at me, disgusted and puz zled. "He made up his mind at last and threw his message into th. wreckage. Then he walked back!" Fouchek Garnett ATTORNEYS AT LAW INSURANCE and BONDS gllllllllllll51llllllllll s PIONEER OF THE '20s HOUSTON, Tex. (U.P.)
