PACKING HOUSE
Strike Brings Out State
TROOPERS

Bridgeton, N. J.-State troopers,
constables and county detectives
guarded workers who strung barb
ed wire around the packing plant Of
the Seabrook Farms and Roster Nur-
series here. The action was taken as
a "precaution" against what company
officials described as attacks by 400
employees on strike for better work
conditions.
The troopers were sent by Gov. A.
Harry Moore at the request of County
Prosecutor Thomas G. Tuso, after a
series of skirmishes between loyal
employees and strikebreakers on the
one side, and strikers on the other.
At least four of the strikers were
reported injured during the battle
that waged across the farmlands sur
rounding the packing plant. A con-
stable later arrested Courtney Sea-
brook, son of the owner of the prop
erty, on a charge of atrocious assault
and battery.

FORCE WORKERS TO
SIGN "YELLOW DOG"

Valdese, N. C. (ILNS)-The "yel-
low dog contract" is again being used
as a means of frightening workers
into relinguishing their right to be-
come members of labor union. The
Waldensian Hosiery Mill here which
closed down twelve weeks ago when
the workers organized, has forced it's
employees to sign two-typewritten
page "yellow dog contract" in order
to get their jobs back.
R. 0. Huffman, president of the
Southern Hosiery Manufacturers As
sociation is also large stockholder
in the Waldesian Mill, reports Larry
Hogan, representative of the Ameri-
can Federation of Hosiery Workers.
Apparently this move of the Walden
sian Mill is part of a concerted plan
against the union by the Southern
organization.
The United States Department Of
Labor is investigating the situation at
the Waldensian Mills.

Pension Act and Wage
Restoration Big Forward
Steps For Rail Labor

Men will be eligible for retirement
on reaching 65, completion of 80
years service with a carrier, or for
disability.
In signing the railroad pension bill,
the president said the measure was
"in line with sound social policy"
though he criticized it as ''crudely
drawn" and expressed the opinion
that it would require amendment at
the next session of congress.
Besides holding that the bill is
"sound" socially, the president fur
ther approved it because he believes
the actual burdens will be "far less"
than estimated; because retirement
will improve railroad morale" and
because the bill provides for the Gre
alton of a board to recommend
changes looking to a permanent sys-
tenn.

ORE MINERS
Unions Win Strike For
Higher Wages

Birmingham, Ala.-C. l.. Richard
son, conciliator of the u. S. Depart
ment of Labor, announced an agree
ment between the metal miners un-
ions and the Tennessee Coal, Iron &
Railway Co., which settled a two
months ore miners strike and paved
the way for the return to work of
$500 miners who walked out on May
a when company officials refused
wages and working conditions SINH
lar to those awarded Alabama coal
miners under the bituminous coal
code.
Mr.. Richardson announced that he
was carrying on negotiations looking
toward settlement of differences be-
tween 1000 other ore miners on strike
from three other companies.
The settlement involves wage in
creases ranging from a maximum of
5 cents per hour for less skilled work
ers to minimum of cents per hour
for higher skilled labor, and a re-
classification of miners so as to les
sen the differential between wages
Of the lowest and the highest paid.
During the strike four men were
killed, a score or more injured Ma
tional Guardsmen were on duty from
the first week of the controversy.
