SCHUETTE REPLIES TO 3ARD0 RE CAMDEN CELEBRATION
The following letter has heen addressed to C. L. Bardo, President of the New York Shipbuilding Company, who acted as toast¬ master at the Camden Chamber of Commerce dinner, in reply to a letter Mr. Bardo recently wrote to Mr. Schuette:
"Your statement in the Heinl Radio Business Letter indi¬ cates that you are an unfortunate victim of the Radio Trust's publicity methods. But instead of complaining to us, I think that you and the Camden County Chamber of Commerce should ask the Radio Trust to retract the publicity which it sent to the newspapers and which it broadcast over its net-work, proclaiming that the Camden festivities were devoted to a celebration of the opening of the con¬ solidated RCA-Victor plants.
"So far as Secretary Davis is concerned, it is regrettable that, before you rushed to his defense, you did not take the trouble to tell him what 3.ron were going to say. For Secretary Davis does not seem to have been under any misapprehension concerning the real purpose of the Camden celebration. On September 26, he wrote me that he 'participated in an assemblage to celebrate the employment of 21,000 workers in the Camden plant of the Radio Corporation* and defended his right to do so.
"When the American people were told that the employment of these 21,000 workers at Camden was an evidence of a returning prosperity, they should also have been told that the employment of these workers by the Radio Trust at Camden was only made possible by the discharge of Radio Trust employees in Pittsburgh, Schenectady and elsewhere. That fact also seems to have been withheld from Secretary Davis, for I cannot believe that otherwise he would have gone to Camden to celebrate a Pittsburgh loss.
