LABORBEAT | By GORDON MITCHELL Oshawa Times Labor Reporter THE RUBBERWORKERS and Dunlop are back at the bargaining table again -- only this time it is the office workers at the Whitby plant. Local 743, United Rubber, Cork, Linoleum and Plastic Workers of America, is tak- ing on the company for a sec- ond time as the first contract expires Nov. 9. The company had a breathing space of about eight weeks after contract ne- otiations with Local 494 be- fore getting into the act again with the white collar boys. Demands submitted by the union so far range from minor contract language changes to the major items -- wages, pensions, welfare and vaca- tions. Gains won by the 650- strong Local 494 in July's final legotiations are expected to play a part in determining strategy by the junior local. Postal Workers To THE AFTERMATH of the great postal workers strike might include the toppling from power: of Edward Poli- shuk, letter carriers repre- sentative for the Toronto area, Mr. Polishuk is said to have told striking postal employees that: 'Heads will roll -- you'll be sorry" during the dispute. Local postal workers say that he was right -- only it's Poli- shuk's head that is going to roll, According to local letter car- riers Ed will get the chop when the District 6 meeting is held in Oshawa in less than three weeks. The district con- vention will see Oshawa post- al employees playing host to their fellow workers from all around the Metro Toronto area, The visitors are bringing at least three candidates for the top spot to replace Polishuk. Oshawa rould have entered someone in the race for the district representative's post --but won't. Union leaders think that the course of bargaining won't be an easy one. Dunlop followed the tough line during the nego- tiations with Local 494 and could give the office workers a rough time during the next jew weeks. The backing of other rub- berworkers locals does give the Local 743 members a sense of security some- thing they say they didn't have when represented by the Office Employees Internation- al Union, The OEIU was de- certified at the plant more than a year ago after mem- bership sank to five people, The UEW then gained rep- resentation at the plant for the office workers, making it the third plant in Canada at which it represented the white collar workers. Confer Here caucus A recent meeting held by letter carriers here | registered a decision to sup- port the Toronto candidate against Polishuk. His actions during the strike -- as well as general dissatisfaction locally with his performance -- turn- ed the Oshawa letter carriers against him. Removal of Polishuk from his regional vice - president's post is also an indirect way of criticizing the national officers of the various postal workers organizations. Ed did his ut- most to keep the District 6 boys from a strike, so local letter carriers say, and man- aged to delay the Toronto walkout, Apparently he made a stand on a 'no strike' agreement made-at the last national con- vention of the association--an agreement which the letter carriers had repudiated. "He has never stood beside the boys," the local consensus runs. "'When he is out the na- tional executive will really know how we feel." If Less Tailed TORONTO (CP) Over- crowded jails could be avoided by sending home persons picked up on minor offences and sum- monsing them, a grand jury recommended Tuesday. In a report to Justice Neil Fraser of the Ontario Supreme Court, the jury suggested of- fenders such as drunks be taken home and summonsed rather than arrested and jailed. The jury also suggested that a documentary film be made of life in the Don jail here for showing to school children.
