The leaflets put lies in the mouth of the two stewards and has them claim that they lost wages, health and welfare and pension payments. In fact, Local 804 made sure that these stewards received full-time wages, health and welfare and pension contributions while they were waiting for arbitration. Local 804 won the arbitration and got the stewards reinstated to their jobs.
