• "Apollo Control Out" With thoSi three words an era was

brought to on end by 0 mission controller for NASA in Houston ,
Texas. The Apollo 17 ostronauts hod splashed down in the Pacific
on time and on torget and climaxed the most technical and
sdentificolly.perfect and rewording mission to the moon yet.
Apollo 17 was the last flight of a $25 billion program which was
started with the challenge of the late President John F. Kennedy
to the nation on May 25, 1961, to achieve the then impossible
dream of landing men on the moon before 1970.
The accomplishing of this "impossible dream" is now history. It
required the efforts of 400,000 Americans working for 20,000
separate companies. The International Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, through thousands of its members , helped in virtually all
construction and operational phases of getting men on the moon ,
both directly and indirectly through equipment they built, maintained,
or operated.
We stand justifiably proud of not only our own IBEW members
but what as Americans we have accomplished working together as
a team: the National Aero nautics and Space Administration,
organized labor, and industry. Not enough praise can be given our
members and all those who helped achieve this impossible dream.
The success of the space program has given us a lesson in real
life that can benefit us in all areas of human endeavor. The goal of
putting a man on the moon by 1970 was attained. The fruits of
success were had. But it is important to remember that the
achievements of the space program were absolutely dependent on
how well the people involved performed their jobs. It took an
attitude of no job too trivial and no individual unimportant. In
summary a supreme coordinated effort of scientists, engineers ,.
electricians, mechanics, welders, television and radio technicians ,
machinists, etc., all doing their jobs, as the key ingredient to success.
The theme of our last convention in 1970 was hploring New
II

Horizons in Electricity." We congratulate our members for doing

just this in the entire Apollo program.

Have an Ice Cream Party
• Ladies. the month of Febru-

But with colorful holidays like
Valentine's Day and Washington's
and Lincoln's birthdu ys-cvcn
Susan B. Anthony"!> for the women's
ribbers-you can always spruce up
your spirits and those of your
f.unify with a lin !c party-cs pccially
one thal\ fun to give.
Yuung chi ldren arc bound to gct
underfoot. 100, al this lim e of year
- too cold [0 play o utsid<.: and noth-
ing to do inside. So why not plan
someth ing the whole family can en-
joy-something like cranking up
.!lome hom emade icc crea m. When
was t h t.: last time you Ill ade icc
cream ill a cran k freeze r'! Probably
when you were only a child . (Re-
member what fun iI was?) And
chances arc yo ur yo ungsters never
even taSoled hom~mllde ice cream,
let alone hel ped to nwke it.
or course, yo u'U need a c ran k
freezer fo r thi.!. special little part y,
and if yo u don't have o nc hidden
away ill the attic, o r C,l11't borrow
one, you migh t find bu ying a two-
qua rt crank freezer one of the best
fun investme nts you eve r made.
Furthermo re, icc cre,Hn is nutri-
tio us. as it contains 85 per cent
milk. What beuer way to scrw milk?
And as fo r ca lori es. a scoop of icc
cream contains only 12 8 calo ries,
while an average piece of apple pic
contains at l ea~ 1 330.
Almost everybod y the world over
loves icc crea m. and the favorite
fl avors an! v:milla. chocolate. and
st rawberry. And did you know that
the amount of ice cream consu med
annually wo uld fill the Grand
Canyon?
Many people erro neously think
icc cream is a relat ively- new d essert
and American in o rigin . Actually,
hislory records tha t Nero, the R o-
man empe ror who fidd led while
R o me burned , during the firs t cen-
tury, adored a dessert made o f snow
and Ilavorcd with honey, juices, and Nero probably took his cherished

Nero had a fas i-runn ing servant hh.tory docs not me ntio n a sim ilar

 A MUST IN 1973
International Vice President Frank T. Gladne y Reports On Railway
Labor's Program To Improve Railroad Retirement In 1973.
(Emphasize Ne ed For /00 0;0 Membership Participation).
International Vice President Frank T. Glad-
ney has recently reported to the railroad
Local Unions concerning the crisis with re -
spect to the railroad retirement system. The
Local Unions were advised that all the stand ·
ard Railway Labor Organizations have joined
together, consolidating their efforts and re-
sources in order to conduct the most com-
prehensive and far-reaching campaign in
railroad history with a determination to pro-
tect and improve the railroad retirement
system.
We are pleased to report that the informa-
tional conferences scheduled throughout the
country are proceeding on schedule and the
reports received indicate that the participa-
tion and reception of the program by many of
the railroad members is very encouraging.
As reported, the negotiations between the
Organizations' committee and the Railroads'
committee have commenced and we have
furnished a copy of the Organization 's open-
ing statements to the Railroad Carriers to
each railroad Local Union. However, as ex-
--.. ..
.:....:. .. .
pected. no results have flowed from these
negotiations as of this report. The target date
for completion of the negotiations with the
Railroad Carriers is still set for March 1,
1973 in order that we may deliver a program
to Congress that may be enacted into law
prior to July 1. 1973.
You may be certain that the Chief Execu-
tives of all the United labor organizations will
continue to do everything possible to accom-
plish the goals of protecting and improving
our railroad retirement system. We cannot
emphasize too strongly, however, the abso-
lute necessity of your help and that of the
entire membership.
The following is an informational report
being made to all railroad members concern-
ing our struggle to improve railroad retire-
ment in 1973. We urge that you read the
information carefully in order that you may
become aware of the importance of this pro·
gram and the necessity of every member'S
partiCipation in a subject that affects all rai/-
road employees and their families.

THE
GREAT
TRADITION
OF RAILROAD
RETIREMENT
Every fallro:td worker knows the
great and honorable tradition of
Railroad Retirement.
We have rl!oson 10 be proud of
iI-because in the 1930's railroad
labor fought for, and won, this sys·
lem of pension protection for retired
railroaders.
Railroad Retiremen t has served
us well in the pasi. For .. Imosl 40
ycurs, Railroad Retirement pio-
neered new standards for pensions
and human dignity in the years of a
worl.cr's retirement.
For almost 40 years, it has been
n Illodel system-a retirement suc-
cess Slory.
But now, in the 1970's, economic
conditions arc rapidly Changing.
Railroad Retirement is in crisis. It

RETIREMENT
FACES
A GRAVE
CRISIS!
Anxiety about the future of Rail-
road RClircmcni has nOI been limited
to the leaders of railroad transpor.
talion unions. Various experts ha\c
voiced their concern. Uoth Congre~s
aluJ the White I iouse bega n 10
worry about Ihe future soundness of
our railroad pension system. Thaes
why two years ago the government
eSl:lblhhed an important five-man
COlllmission on Ra ilroad Retire·
men\, \\hich made il<; report in the
summcr of 1972.
The Commission had one orlicial
rcpresemalivc from organized labor
- President C. L. Dennis of the
Railway Clerks. O. E. Leigh ty, who
had once been head of thc Tclcgra·
phers, was onc of the three public
mcmbers.
·1his official Commission on Rail-
ro:ld Retirement listed these major
problems:
1. Railroad Retirement "needs a
thorough o\'erhatll" so that it can
"meet current condit ions" :lIld 10
"make it financially solvent."
2, The railroad industry is shrink-

ing. Once there were morc th:1Il a
million jobs. Now ii's about 600,-
000. In 20 years, experts belie\c
railroad jobs will Ic\cI off at less
than 350.000 jobs.
3, Thosc of us who "havc been
working on the rai lroad" arc gClling
older. Nea rly half of us arc bCl\\ecn
45 a nd 64 years old. That will put
a heavy burdcn on pensions in the
next 15 ycars.
-" There urc more beneficiaries
receiving pensions than there arc
working railroaders paying into the
pension fund.
S, Pension disbllrsements. as a
result, arc bigger thun receipts. By
the end or 1987, actuaries predict
the Rcsef\e Fund will be gone. A
harsh word: bankruptcy!
6, T o avert this coming crisis-
which could bring untold hard~hip
to thousands of rctired and activc
railronders-railroad p c n~ ion rdorl1l
is ncedcd 1I 0 W, (That's JUSt what the
union~ have been suying in recent
years.)

NOW A
WORKABLE
PLAN-
LET'S ALL
GET BEHI ND IT!
In its 1912 report. the U.S. Com-
mission on Railroad Retirement rully
accepted much of raih~ay I:lbor's
proposal for a pJan 10 prm ide pen-
sion reform.
I. I he COlllmission and United
Railway Lahor sec eye-la-eye on Ihe
need for a I"o-lier pension S}Slcm.
The Commission's proposal is this:
II. The first tier becomes Social
Security, bUI R'lilroad Retirement
docs not merge with Social Security.
(We've had financial interchange
\\jll1 Social Seeuril) for o\er 20
years.)
Thai would mean money in the
ruilroad worker's pocket [0 the
extent of $43 a Illonlh----or morc.
How'! The difference between
mOllthl), payments of IO.60r:t now
under Railroad Retirement and
5.851'/} under Social Security, effec-
tive January I, 1973. A big slHing!
b. rhe s(..'Cond lier noats on
top of Social Security. A Railroad
Rct iremcnt plan ncgotiated \\ it h
nti lroad cmploycrs and protccted by
federal Icgislation (just like the pro-.
tcction under the prescnt Railroad
Retirement S)slem). This would be
similar to union pensions in stcd,
auto and other comparable indus·
trics. All of them Ooat industry
pen!.ion bencfits on top of Social
Security.
Speaki ng as the labor mcmber o f
lhe Com missio n, BR AC President
Dcn nis made crysw l·elear that rai l·
way labor "strongly recommends
that managcment assume Ihe full
cost of the !.ccond·(icr level of bcne·
fits." T hat's the way it is in most
other b ig industries.
2. T he Commission a nd the
unions agree completely that the
pension c hange--over will be com·
pletcd " "ilh ollt taking llWlly lilly
p resclIl bcncfi ls frolll currcllt hClle·
lichu il.'S, o r II ny Icgally vcstcd hcnc.
fi ts from the p resent workers."
The clear principle is: e\erybody
benefits. nobody gcts hurl.
J. The CornmiS!.ion generally rcc·
ogni7cs the need for continuing pen·
sion improvements.
In his onicial comments on the
Commission report, the labor mcm·
ber sp:llcd OUI I.. bor'.!> guals:
"We need a plan \\h ich prmidcs
for ~I ire m ell l 0 11 :I fu ll lmnuit) al
age 55 a ft er 30 ~ l·l.rl> of scnice.
"The Congress i'i aware of Ihis,
and I belie\c it i.!> a \lIbjeet which
will haw 10 be acted on il!> pilrt and
p.ucel of Ihe clllirc cffort to reform
the railroad retin:llIcnt program.
" Rai lroad wor~\!r\ cannot SHl nd
st ill on pension iSl>tlcs .... We must
impru\"c \\hil...: we reform."
THE MANY
BENEFITS OF
RAILROAD
PENSION
REFORM
Perhaps you'rc still saying: '00
we really necd all this SlUff? Why
not let wcll enough alonc?' It would
be nice if we cou ld- blll we com't!
Here arc the CXIICI word ... of the
oflicial U.S. Commi!.sion on Rail·
road Ret irement:
"Thc Ra ilroad Ret irc mcnt s)!.Icm
is now in :1 IIl O!;! !.crio lll> condition;
it has .!itrllclu ra l deficiencies, lind
is hel.di ng fo r bankruillcy in the
1980's."
T hese words cannot be ignored
by any union representing wor~ers
on the railroads.
Let's look OIl the benefits of two-.
tier pellsion ~ plu s 30 55:
I . A sound R .. ilro.. d Retirement
System.
2. Money in )our pocket-543 a
month or more, n:prcscnling tllc dif·
ference betwccn I 0.60('~ of wages
as of Januar) I, 1973, in the Rail·
road Retirement S}stem and only
5.85'1: in Social Security.
3. Bigger pcn~ion s, through rl'·
formed federal railroad retirement
legislation . raday. for instance,
steelworkers wilh 35 to 40 years
of service gel tota l pensions rang·
ing betwecn $40 und 6() a month
more than railroad cmployees. And
the)\e paid in just about half as
much .

doubt. Ihc o lll ~ \\ \I) - to gd 30 55
is through pension rdorm. The old
system simply couldn't afford it.

United Railway Labor has ,II·
ready started to work fo r beller

me n! in Ra ilroad Retirement pen-
sions ... to matc h the ri sc in Soci'JI
Security benefi ts. The 20% im-
provement is now enacted into law.
• In the FilII of '72 we st:l rlcd
to ta lk to the railroads about the
second-t ier railroad retirement pro-
gram. We've lold them they must
bear Ihe full cost of thelle ncgoti-
;!ted pensions-just as employers
do in ot her bIg industries.
A Comparison:
Railway Pensions & Steel Pensions
(After 35 Yea rs of Service)
= $538.18
• We've told them we insist on
30/ 55, also wil h the costs to be
borne by tho.! ca rriers.
• Railwa y [:lbor is prcpan.'d to

a double job to be done with our

"ince 1968 automatically expire, un-
less Congress extends them. Ob\'i-
nusly. we can't possibly permit a
cut amounting to 50% in present
penSions. Every Congressman. every
Senator has got to realize that rail-
ro;.ld workers are solidl y behind Ihe

Thinking of the heart in the laller
manner, members of Local 1402, 10-
gether wilh Sa laried workers, decided \0
form a Blood [)onon Club. AlmOSI 20
years ago, when the present firm was
known li S Stee l City Electric Company,
a group of workers applied for a eon-
tracl at the Central Blood lI an~ fo r do -
nnling blood on a regu lar ba,i" to be
used for persons in need. The prosram
was opened to hourly-wage carner, amJ
~:tlarie d workers, and Ihe chl b h:ld 100
members,
To dllle, ahl1O!.t 400 pinh of blood
have bee n donated, At onc lime, there
was a ~urp lus and Ihi~ was donated 10
Pillsbnrsh's Sl. John H o~pital. The pres-
en l fi rm, Mid l:md- Ross Corporal ion, ha~
been very help ful in the club's .::ndeavor
by being instrumental in bringi ng in a
Mobile Blood Unit 10 n1H~C it po~~~ible
for worker~ to be excllsed from their
jobs for the length of lime il ta~e ) to
dona te a pint of blood, This hilS been a
boon 10 many workers, ~aving Ihem It
trip to the Centra l lJa ll~ in lhe Oilklund
di~trkt of Ihe city, Being ever l'ivic
minded, lhe M idland - K os~ firm hns ubo
conlributed a tidy ~um of money tuw,tr\l
the ercetion of prcsen t buildins- housillg
facilities regarding the Cenlntl Blood
Bank .
Due to obviolts rea~ons, such as
heal th and retirement, Ihe metl1ber~hip
now ~t~nds ;tt MM, T hcrefore, ),011 new
employees, why not decide to join the
II lood Donurs Club and give it gift of
~·O\lrsclf. lhe kiml thltt could ~ave a life

As the supply of blood diminishes,
the ~elee ted memlx:r~ arc cn ll rd upon 10
givc, t hu~ ma inlaining a quotH at the

clip to disconnect the tramformer, he
Wlh struck with 40,000 VOlh. All drom
to revive him failed, and he was pro·
nounced dead on arri\-al at the local
hospital.
Brother Carey had been a member of
Local 2109 for about 10 )ears. Our
sympathy goes out to his wife and tW 0
sons.

cOlllilll/('d from poge 27
when Marco Polo, famou s Italian
globe trouer of his time, returned
from a trip to Ihe Oriem bringing
with him a rC(;ipe similar to Nero's
delicacy.
The dessert became very popular
in Italy. and when Catherine de
Medici married Henry II of France
during the middle of the 16th cen-
tury, she brought to France her fruit
ice recipe, along with her cooks,
and served the delicacy at her lav-
ish, royal banquets.
[n Paris, a shop owner added
milk to a sweet liquid before freez-
ing it , and served it to his cus-
tomers. This concoction was proba-
bly the closest to icc cream as we
know it today.
When Cha rles 1 of England got
hold of the ice cream recipe, he
enjoyed it so much, he paid his
French chef 500 Ixmnds a year and
swore him to secrecy about the
recipe.
Jt is not known exacliy when icc
cream was introduced to America,
but by the end of the 18th century,
ice cream cou ld be bought in icc
cream parlors in New York.
George Washington obviously
loved icc cream, too. for during
the summer of 1790, his bill for
ice cream, made at his home in
Mount Vernon, was $200.
When Dolley Madison became
Fint Lady, the following account
appeared in the society column :
"When the brilliant assemblage-
America's bcst-entered the dining
room, they beheld a table set with
French china and English si lver,
laden with good things to cat, and
111 the cen ter, high on a silver
plaltcr, a [arg<! shining dome of pink
icc cream."
It is casy to understand why on ly
the wcalt hy could afford to eat ice
cream, for there wcrc no icc-mak-
ing machines to preserve it for any
length of time, lind also making it
involved a long, laborious process.
The ingredients were placed in a
metal container which was put into
a wooden bucket packed with icc
and then shaken back and fo rth
until the ingredients became icy.
When it was discovered that salt
added to icc lowers the tempera-
ture, thus hastening freezing, tl"tc
time involved in shaki ng was, how-
ever, reduced.
Naturally, it took a woman to
improve the methods of making ice
cream. Nancy Johnson, in 1846, de-
vised dashers connected by gears
to a crank handle which when
IUrned rotated the dashers in the
cyl inder, thus giving the icc cream
a creamy texture and cutt in g down
the time involved in making it.
Th e intro duction of e lectric
motors for making ice cream and
ice-making machines reall y revolu-
tionized Ihe icc cream industry.
Well , ladies that's a brief history
of a roya l dessert.
Hope yOlI have some really
SCTUmptuous ice crea m parties!
