BefOrGLabOrBOard
FOrmerStrikers Demand
Mrs. Herrick Abolish
Blacklist

NEW YORK. - -Four hundred
members of the Amalgamated Hotel
and Restaurant Workers Union
demonstrated yesterday at 8 o'clock
at the Regional Labor Board head
quarters, As Broadway, to demand
an end to the blacklist and the Jobs
they had lost for participating in a
recent strike.
They had been promised that the
strikers would be re-hired without
discrimination, 1000 remain black
listed despite the board and hotel
owners promises.
A delegation of five rank and file
workers from the ranks of the DEM
onstrators who were militantly YELL
ing for their Jobs, carrying placards,
waving, we Demand All Strikers
Be Reinstatedw, Fight Against
Discrimination on Jobs!" were es-
eorted by two policemen, who would
not allow more than five to see Mrs.
Elinor Herrick, head of the board.
During the meeting, Mrs. Herrick
carefully Unanswered postpon-
ment of the rank and file workers
who were falsely deceived previous
ly to the Labor Board hearing to
be held next week between hotel
owners and workers. The workers
demanded their jobs back, the abo-
lition of the blacklist, fingerprinting
and photographing of workers on
the job.
Before the meeting ended, Mrs.
Herrick said, L can't accept your
statements alone. I have to hear
the hotel owners also. That's one
of our basic principles of American
justice" when she was told about
the discriminating, strikebreaking
policies of the hotels.
Meanwhile the Union stated they
will fight for their rights at the
hearings to begin Monday and
which will last throughout the week.
They will demand that all strikers
be reinstated.

Johnson Presents
.Slave-UniOnPIantO
.BuddAutOWOrkerS
Bosses to Have Full
Control Over Workers
Under Proposal

PHILADELPHIA, March 30. -
Using the Roosevelt auto settle
ment" as base, General Hugh s.
johnson has proposed the same
pro-company slaYe-union plan to
the Budd auto body workers.
Over 300 Budd auto body workers
were Victimized by the National La
Dor Board and the Edgward G.
Budd Manufacturing Company as
the result of a strike last year. The
General proposed that one striker
be re-hired for every two men en-
ployed during the next 90 days.
This leaves the way open for the
boss to do as he plesses. The Sec
ond point is that when workers are
laid of the same amount be laid of
in the company union as those be-
longing to other unions.
No guarantees are given the
workers in the Budd plant, and the
merit clause" giving the boss the
right to hire and fire as he pleases)
remains in force.
