International Harvester Co.
The board held that the workers
representation plan was a Creature"
of the company, that the company
dominated it and that 1t gave workers
orly q shadow" Of collective bargain
ing.
Thus, the board said, the plan Is
Illegal under the Wagner labor rela-
tions act, which seeks to outlaw en-
ployer- dominated unions. The COM
pany was ordered to "disestablish"
the plan as representative of workers.
~ There was no immediate announce.
ment whether the decision of the
board would be carried to the courts,
but such step was considered not
unlikely.
- Indications Lacking.
: Without going into the merits of
the wage scale or Of the employe
representation plan, Miss Perkins
{ found that nothing In the plan in.
! dicates that agreements between the
employe representatives and the
, steel corporation concerning wage
! scales, written or otherwise, are con-
templated."
Secretary Perkins did not 20 into
the merits Of the steel company's pro-
posed wage scheme. She also declined
to give an opinion as to the legality OF
the company union plan Of the United
States Steel Corp. and Its subsidiaries,
including the Carnegie Illinois Co.
The Secretary said the request for
an opinion and review Of the employe
representation plan involved issues
now in litigation before the Supreme
Court and that the National Labor Re-
lations Board would be the appropriate
governmental agency to review the
plan. She informed Maloy and Patter-
son that ''your proper recourse would
be to invoke the powers of the Ma
! tional Labor Relations Board -
for an adequate reply to your ques-
! ton"

Housing" The location on the map
was that of the Grover property.
| This designation, however. did not
mean that the land was owned by
the F. H. A. or any other Govern
ment agency. The land in question,
as The Star was informed, is owned
by Grover, and negotiations between
the owner and the F. H. A. over a
financing loan were inaugurated some
time ago.
Would Push Plan.
Grover said that these negotiations
have never been dropped. and that
he has every intention, II the abat.
toir Is barred from the area, of pur.
suing his plan for q large housing
development on this tract Of land,
with or without F. H. A. financing.
+. II. A. officials were under the
impression, they said, that Grover had
| decided to abandon his negotiations,
as they have not heard from him for
two months.
THAT is because our plans are at
point where We cannot 20 ahead
specifically at the present time"
Grover said, but as soon as they ma
ture to that point we fully intend to
resume negotiation with the r. H.
A. and hope to obtain its backing"
Grover said that the odors from
nearby slaughter-house, If the Gobel
Co. succeeds IN obtaining o build
ing permit, would permeate the whole
neighborhood.
Nobody would be able TO live in
the houses If we succeeded in renting
them under those circumstances" he
said, "and a packing house there
would make it useless for US to COM
plete our plans"
Washington is greatly In need Of
modern houses at low or reasonable
rentals, Grover added, and it was
with the intention of helping to
meet this need that he and Layman
planned development in the Ben
ming section.
The Gobel plant burned In 1884.
and, like the Commissioners and park
officials, no one apparently had any
thought Of the meat rendering busi-
ness being resumed there.
At Growers request, the r. H. A.
had prepared q set-up for the pro-
posed housing development, which
had been submitted to the Commis-
sioners and the Park and Planning
Commission. Grover explained yes
terday that changes were suggested
In connection with one Of the parcels
of land in order to conform with the
desires Of the Park and Planning
Commission. Thee changes are still
being studied, as he had every desire,
he explained, to conform to local
and Federal requirements.
The land In question Is so situated
as to border on q strip that Is con-
templated as a part Of the proposed
extension Of Anacostia Park.
Grover said the development con-
templating 800 dwellings was not be-
ing undertaken as a speculative ven-
ture, but with the idea Of providing
reasonably priced houses for persons
who cannot afford to pay the rentals
demanded In washington for thor
oughly modern accommodations.
Rentals would be fixed as low as pos.
sible, he explained, 80 Is to insure
Q return on the property.

after the excitement attendant upon
her Ipswich divorce from Inest A.
Simpson, her greatest desire for the
present was for seclusion and nor
NAL routine in her household.

o concert at the Yugoslavian Legation.

brother, the Duke of Kent, and other
British mobiles and their wives.
