Union Head Charges
He Was Ousted From Town

PITTSBURGH, July ! Q.N,S0.
First rumblings of open warfare
in the drive to weld the steel in
dustry into one big union came to-
day when Claude r. Kramer, SIS,
of MasSillon. Ohio, an organizer
for the Steel Workers organizing
committee, charged here he was
"railroaded" out of SteubenVille,
Ohio.
Kramer charged that eight men
invaded his hotel room, went
through his dresser and bag, con-
fiscated his papers, books, reports
and letters and then hustled him
aboard a train for Pittsburgh.
This occurred, he said, after he
had been taken before a man who
represented himself as the mayor
of adjoining Holidays Cove and
warned to "get out of town"
Kramer asserted he will file an
affidavit relating his experience
with the La Toilette Senate Com
mittee investigating industrial
"spies"
A3nGS
Plants of the Weirton Steel Cor
poration. bitter foe Of the closed
union shop and governmental reg
ulation of business, are located at
Stenbenville and Holidays Cove.
Earl F. Reed, counsel for the cor
poration, had recently predicted
the current attempt by the United
Mine Workers and other allied
unions to unionize the steel indus
try would result in a general
strike.
Meanwhile. as action replaced
o1atory, organized labor and the
steel industry appeared to be
squaring off for a finish fight on
the plan to enroll the 100000 steel
workers into one industrial union.
Steel took the offensive by plac-
ing full-page advertisements in
some 375 newspapers in the coun-
try's key industrial centers re-
iterating the promise made
through the news columns earlier
in the week that it will oppose any
attempt to compel steel workers
''to pay tribute for the right to
work"
Industrial unionists, through
the newly organized steel workers
organizing committee, replied to
the frontal attack by going full
speed ahead with their plans to
flood all industrial districts with
organizers instructed to develop
local leadership in the mills with
the aim of drafting steel workers
into the organizing service.
Labor Speeds Drive
Previously, approximately 200
organizers had already been sent
out by the organizing committee,
working under the generalship of
Philip Murray, chairman of the
S. w. o. c., vice president Of
the United Mine Workers of
America.
Before departing for Washing
ton to confer with John L. Lewis,
U. M. w. president and leader of
the C. I. o., Murray attacked the
American Iron and Steel InSti-
tute statement as "defeatiSt," and
asserted his committees drive was
mot to be thwarted," by its
"braZen denialS."

ConstitutionaIity

HdAAOHhAA ANB"b DGANASS
The first appeal attacking con.
stitutianality Of the Wagner labor
relations act to reach the Su-
preme Court was filed today by
the Bradley Lumber Company
and the Bradley Lumber Sales
Company OF Arkansas.
The appeal came from the Fifth
Circuit Court at New Orleans,
which upheld dimissal of the suit
to have the law declared uncon,
stitutional.
Bases Of Appeal
The lumber company in assail'
ing constitutionality of the Wag,
ner act, asserted:
l. 1t inpairs and destroys
freedom of contract between
employers and workers in vio-
lation of the Fifth Amendment.
2. In attempting to control
collective bargaining and affect
ing wages and hours of labor,
the law violates rights reserved
to the States.
3. The law denies to courts
the right to pass on controver-
sizes, by vesting fact-finding power
solely in the National Labor Re
lationS Board.
4. The business of the lum-
Der company is purely local and
intra-State.
The case appealed to the higf
court was decided upon technica
instead of constitutional ground
in the Fifth Circuit Court at New
Orleans.
Power Held Lacking
Both the Federal District ant
the Circuit Court held that th'
company should not seek an in
junction against the board befor'
it had acted or by service upon al
agent. The court also held that i
had no power to interfere with ad
ministrative proceedings by hand
ing down a declaratory decision.
In the appeal, Robert H. Kelley
attorney for the company pointed
out that 10 days after the Fifth
Circuit court decided the lumber
case. it. held the Wagner Act I'm
constitutional in the Jones and
Laughlin Steel Corporation case.

ADVERTISING
NEW MOVE
IN BATTLE
Unionization to Lead
'Coercion,' Claim
Of Institute
International News Service

Labor and management drew
battle lines in the nations steel
industry today.
Turning to new weapon in its
campaign against unionization,
the five-billion-dollar industry por-
trayed its side of the contest in
full-page advertisements in about
375 leading newspapers in the big
gest industrial centers.
Coincidentally, union organizers
were at work throughout these
same cities, endeavoring to recruit
steel workers into ranks of the
Amalgamated Association Of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers, backed by
the Committee for Industrial Or
ganization headed by John l..
Lewis, international president of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea.
AS an off-Shoot to the labor
management warfare, the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor cited the
ten unions comprising the Lewis
sponsored committee to appear be-
fore the federation'S executive
council at washington next Tues
day to reply to allegations these
unions seek to create a rival organ
ization.
The newspaper advertisements,
signed by the American Iron and
Steel Institute, contained the an
nouncement of the industrys
stand against outside unionization
of steel workers first made public
in news colunS by the institute
last Monday. Purpose of the
move, it was said, was to bring
before those workers who did not
read the announcement in the
news columns the steel industry'S
picture of coercion and intimida-
ton which, the announcement
said, will attend the unioniIation
campaign.

dunlmy's Ace Of spades, dropping
all defensive trumps.
A third round of hearts was led.
East played the @. Declarer
ruffed, leaving two long hearts in
dummy, as Vests also fell.
Dummy was put in lead with it's
10 of spades. Both good hearts
were led. On the first one declarer
let go his last club, insuring no
loss in that suit. On the last heart
from dummy a low diamond was
discarded by declarer. Now he
felt safe, even if West held both
Ace and @ OF diamonds.
The J Of diamonds was led.
East's @ and declarer's K covered.
Vests Ace won the second defen-
sive trick, but that was all his side
could win. West led the K of
clubs, but declarer ruffed with his
last trump. Dummy's 10 of dia-
nondS won the next trick and it's
long trump won the thirteenth
trick. The strategy displayed by
this South player, both in bidding
and playing his cards was admir-
able, in strong contrast to the
strategy of the five who passed.
Also a decided improvement in
play over the other South player
who bid spades.
The five South players who de-
clined to open the bidding had an
odd reason for doing so. They
stated that they did not open as
dealer upon less than 8 quick
tricks and a 5-oard suit. IF the
XII Of hearts did not stand 8 in
chances of being the equal Of an
Ace, their reason might sound
more logical.

COCKEYED STRATEGY

THE GREAT weakness Of every
highly developed system of bidding
IS its red tape, binding it's follow
ers to follow minor rules, rather
than observe a few fundamental
laws and then using their heads to
better purpose for details. The
other evening five out Of seven
players sitting South, passed, in
stead Of bidding 1-Spade, as a re-
still, those five players found the
hand passed out. One South play
g and his partner bid only to
three, but made four. The other
South player and his partner bid
4'Spades and made an extra trick
for top, through excellent strategy.
