Rubber Company Silent, Awaiting
-, Receipt of Official Copy.

= AKRON, Ohio, July IL R).-Com-
plant of the National Labor Relations
Board against the Goodyear Tire &
Rubber Co. for alleged unfair labor
practices brought varying comments
today.
A Goodyear spokesman said that
pending receipt of the official copy of
the complaint there would be no COM
ment.
This is one Of the most important
labor cases in the United States" said
Frank Grillo, secretary of the United
Rubber Workers of America, which
brought the charges. Every resource
of our international will be thrown be-
hind its prosecution.
That the board has jurisdiction over
Goodyear was questioned by Jack
Otterman, president of the house Of
the company's Industrial Assembly"
which the board claims is financed and
controlled by the company. Otterman
said that the company was not engaged
N interstate commerce and therefore
not subject to the board.
M. D. BoyleS, spokesman for the
Stahl-Mate Club, described as biased"
charges of the board that his organi-
Eation is encouraged by Goodyear and
that it is "militaristic."
I'VE just want to be fair, clean and
honest" Boyles said. Our principles
are industrial freedom and the right to
work. We are not picking fight with
any one"

The heart of the bridge Is a Fly

This intricate structure Is designed so
that motor vehicles may travel be-
tween any two Of the three boroughS,
or from any borough to Randalls
Island, without encountering . single
grade crossing.
Ramps leading to and from the main
elevated highway between Long Island

bound to or from Manhattan to veer
onto the structure without interfer-

Bridge Among Earliest
OF Aid Projects.
At a time of great human suffer
ing the construction of this bridge
was undertaken among the very first
of the tens Of thousands Of projects
launched by States and counties and
municipalities and financed in part
with Federal funds.
You, Gov. Lehman. and you. Mayor
La Guardia, are personally familiar
with this great array Of public i'm
provements. You know Of the other
tunnels and bridges, of the sewage
disposal programs. of the school house
and hospital construction, of the ad-
ditions and repairs to public buildings
and public enterprises of every kind
Because Of your deep personal in
terest in all of this work, you have
visualized its progress in every part
Of the Nation. I am grateful to both
Of you for the cooperation you have
given me as President Of the United
States.
And I am grateful to you, the
workers, skilled and unskilled, here
at the site and those in the mills
and shops many miles distant, with
out whose strong arms, willing hands
and clear heads there would be no
celebration here today.
May the Thorough Bridge, in the
years to come, justify our efforts and
our hopes by serving truly the city,
the State and the Nation.
