Subsequently the election took
place by secret ballot, under the
supervision of the NRA, and the
Employees Mutual Benefit Associa-
ton was selected to be the repre-
sentative of all employees by over
two-thirds majority.
The Employees Mutual Benefit
Association, under it's Constitution
and Bylaws, handles all matters
pertaining to the operating condi-
tions, hours of labor, wages, dis
charges, lay-offs, etc. AS a matter
of fact any group of workers or any
individual may come before our
Executive Board for a hearing con-
corning any dispute or grievance.
AS you no doubt know, our En-
ployees Mutual Benefit Association
functions through employee repre-
Sentatives from all departments Of
the mill and all complaints, and all
matters of dispute, come finally be-
fore our Executive Board, which is
made up Of eight members, four are
elected by the employees by secret
ballot, and four are employees APP
pointed by the management. In case
any dispute can not be settled by a
majority vote of this Executive
Board, which is made up of eight
members, or in the event of any tie
vote on any issue between the COM
pany representatives and employee
representatives Of the Board, the
Bylaws of the Employees Mutual
Benefit Association provide that all
such matters be referred to a Board

losing minority group would be en-
titled to separate representation, for
in that event there would have been
no need for the type of election we
had which was fully agreed upon in
advance by the parties concerned.
Now a group of these employees
apparently wishes to nullify the re-
suits of the very election that they
demanded. They now wish, so we
are informed through Mr.. j. A.
Goodman, to deal directly with the
management and to be able to COM
pletely ignore our duly elected En-
ployeeS Mutual Benefit Association
Board.
The answer Of our Employees Mu-
tual Benefit Association is that in
view of the type of election which
we held, We have responsibility
and obligation to all of our en-
ployees, who themselves have de-
cided what form of representation
they want and that decision they
have already made through their
election by secret ballot. Our Board,
therefore. would be powerless to
agree to changing the form of repre-
sentation we have been instructed
to carry on.
We believe that you can clearly
see from the above facts that our
situation is very clear in that any
issue of employee representation
that is now before your Board has
previously been brought out and
definitely decided in a clear-cut
manner. We see, therefore, no oc-

OF Arbitration made up of men not
associated with the company in any
way. One arbitrator is selected by
the employer members of the Board,
and one arbitrator is selected by the
employee members of the Board and
those two arbitrators, Independently,
select third arbitrator as Chair
man, and the decisions of that arbi-
tration committee are binding upon
the company and all employees.
Our organization has functioned
in this manner for a period of twelve
years and all disputes and COM
plants have always been amicably
settled.
Now we understand, through Mr..
j. A. Goodman, that group of en-
ployees has presented certain COM
plants and demands to your hon.
orable Board, which complaints and
demands those employees have
never presented to our Board which,
as a result of the election, is the
duly constituted authority to handle
such matters.
The employees who are making
these complaints and demands are
the same employees who demanded
the election last Fall on the clear
cut issue between the Union and the
Employees Mutual Benefit Associa-
ton and were enthusiastically in
favor Of the basis of the election
which was that the will of the ma
jority of the employees would pre-
vail. 1t was never contemplated, at
the time of the election, that the

To the Regional Labor Board,
indianapolis, Indiana.
Gentlemen:
We have received a letter from
Mr.. j. A. Goodman, Chairman Of
the Board of Directors Of the Real
Silk Hosiery Mills, Inc, stating that
he has had a conference with your
honorable Board. Mr.. Goodman, at
your request, asked us if we would
be willing to put up to Washington
this question of minority represen-
tation and be bound by the decision
handed down there.
For your information We wish to
state that our Employees Mutual
Benefit Association was organized
twelve years ago and was incorpor-
ated under the laws of the State of
Indiana. Last Fall our employees
requested a vote under the NRA to
determine whether the Employees
Mutual Benefit Association or the
Federation of Hosiery Workers
should represent the employees for
the purpose of bargaining collec-
lively with the management. Last
October a Washington representa-
tive of the NRA came to Indianap-
oils and announced to our en-
ployees, through the medium Of bull
letins, that the results of the vote
under his supervision. indicating the
wish of the majority. would be bind
ing on the company and on all en-
ployees for "the period covered by
the NRA."

A Message From the Employees
Of the Real Silk Hosiery Mills
to the Public

Because Real Silk Hosiery Mills, Inc is an irnpor-
tant industry in Indianapolis, affecting the lives Of
thousands of citizens we believe that the pub
lie has right to know the facts about the strike of
small minority of the employees.
The trouble is caused by one group of workers
refusing to recognize the authority of organization
of feOWeployees that had been duly constituted to
deal with all matters pertaining to labor.
All the employees of this company voted at
election held under the auspices of last October
to determine what form Of employee organization they
preferred.
The choice was between the American Fedora
ton of Full Fashioned Hosiery Workers Unon and the
Employees Mutual Benefit Association of Real Silk
Hosiery Mills The Employees Mutual Benefit Associa-
ton had been functioning satisfactorily for twelve
years. The result Of the election overwhelming
vote in favor of having the Employees Association
tnue to act the representative of all the employees
It was understood that the company, as we'll as
all of the employees SHOULD be bound by the result of
the election. Accordingly, the company entered into
an agreement with the Employees Association by which
all matters pertaining to wages hours of labor working
conditions etc., should be determined by that organiza
tion with provision for arbitration of deadlock
Individual employees groups of employees have the
privilege of presenting complaints grievances or sug
gestions to the executive board of the Association
The representative Of the NRA who conducted
the election posted Bulletin prior to the election stat
ing that the organization receiving the largest number
of votes should select committee to deal with the
agement for the period covered by the National Recov
cry Act.

casion at this time, to try to decide
something again which has already
been definitely decided. However if
for any reason your board should
see fit to refer this matter to any
authority in Washington, we, of
course, stand ready to appear at any
such hearing and personally pre-
sent the above facts.
In conclusion, we feel compelled,
in the interests of all Of our en-
ployees, to call upon your honor
able Board to use your proper au-
thority to see that if there are any
employees who have complaints to
register, that they be registered di-
rectly with our Employees Mutual
Benefit Association Board, which is
their duly elected authority. Any
such complaints that are presented
to our Board will receive proper con-
sideration, whether presented by in
dividuals or groups.

The company management contends that this
arrangement still obtains, and holds that those who
assume to represent any class group of employees,
should appear before our E. NJ B. A. board rather than
seek to have the company deal with them direct.
That was the position of the Company when ap-
preached by officials of the Union.
The Union, instead of appearing before our E. NJ
B. A. board, carried its demands to the Regional Labor
Board with threat to call STRIKE We are informed
that the Labor Board strongly advised against STRIKE
but the Union officials ignored the advice
With all these facts in mind, it must be obvious
that the action of the Union is inspired by the desire to
force the Company to break it's agreement with En-
ployees Mutual Benefit Association
During the twelve years that the E. NJ. B. A. has
functiOned this company and its employees have
worked together in peace and harmony. It largely
because of the fine spirit of cooperation between the
management and our Association that the Real Silk
Mills continued to operate during the whole depression
Even during 1888 average of 1868 employees were
afforded employment and with an average of over 36
hours week, per employee.
Most of the Real Silk employees went right on
with their regular work yesterday and the
is cooperating in every possible way for the comfort
and convenience of the workers. Out of total of 5000
employees exactly 755 did not report for work yester
day.
The plant does not operate on Saturdays as we
have five day schedule but operations will be resumed
on Monday as usual.
