REPORT
ON FORD HEARING
N. l. R. B. Examiner Re.
turning Here With Stories
of $50 Witnesses,
By the Associated Press.


DETROIT. July 31.-A trial ex-
aminer began his report to the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board today
on tense weeks Of testimony that
etched sharply the issues in a
dramatic struggle between the Ford
Motor Co. and the United Automobile
Workers of America.
The examiner. John T. Lindsay,
said he would return to Washington
Immediately to prepare his interme-
diate report-from the stories Of more
than $50 witnesses-for the board.
He did not say how long he expected
the task would require.
The door remained open for Ford
attorneys to present additional evi-
dence in rebuttal of testimony of a
surprise witness produced by N. L..
r. B. counsel In the closing hours
OF the hearing yesterday.
Refused Information.
The witness. George Blake said
Ford officials discharged him for re-
io'oi w SiNN iI4lpl lildtlOIi W FOTQ
service men who police the huge au-
tomobile plant. He said his dis
charge took place two days after he
was instructed to be on the watch for
union activity.
The board, after considering the
report and the briefs prepared by
opposing counsel. may issue an order
requiring the company to desist from
such practices as it may find unlawful
under the provisions of the national
labor relations act.
Accused of Instigating Disorder.
The union, in its complaint charged
the company was guilty of a long list
Of unfair labor practices and that it
lnstigated, through employees and
agents, disorders on May 26 which
included the beating of four u. A.
w. A. officials who were directing the
distribution Of union handbills at the
Ford gates.
Ford attorneys countered with
general denial, accused union officials
OF conspiring to trespass upon private
property and incite riot, and finally
challenged the Labor Boards iurisdic-
ton, contendlng no incident cited in
the complaint had any bearing upon
interstate commerce.
Discipline Dema nded.
Meanwhile. Common Pleas Judge
Ralph W. Liddy asked the Dear born
Safety Commission today to disci-
pline or remove police inspector, q
sergeant, three patrolmen and a police
matron in connection with the fighting

suited in the indictment of eight men

day. would be fighting the Demo-
cratic battles OF the future as vigor-
ously as ever"
Harrison made the most vigorous as
sault on the bill in yesterdays Senate
debate. He criticized it as more
dangerous to business than any that
has been presented to the Senate"
Striding back and forth, he told
his colleagues one reason he opposed
the legislation was because Secretary
Perkins may have great deal to say
about its administrati ton"
Il don't want this measure handled
by people who have an antipa thy
against my section" he roared, his
arms failing the air.
Il don't want 1t administered bv
people who have an idea that our
women down there don't wear shoes.
and who have other ideas that are
unfounded"
Harrison, defeated last week for
majority leader. criticized the su-
thority which the La Dor Standards
Board would have over industry. He
declared:
Il don't want to give that much
power to anybody, l don't want this
board destroying businesses. large or
small, by its administrative fats"
He was followed by Senator Cotton
En- Smith h,,11 g
Carolinian, who described the bill as
the last and final effort which If
enacted into law will arrest perhaps
forever. the hope and prosperity of
the South"
You are creating a psychology in
this country .hat will sink us" he
said, tueging at his grizzled nlustache.
We will have to change our i'm
migration laws to bring people in here
to work We are changing the con-
cept OF America to provide for every
one wage whether he is able to
work for 1t or not"
Waving copy of the measure, he
shouted
Il won't attempt to use the proper
adjective to describe my opinion Of
this BILL
Smith, mentioning the anti-lvnching
bill, characterized it as nothing in
the world but means OF getting the
votes of certain race in this coun-
try"
There isn't 4 man in the South
who isn't Just as much opposed TO
mass murder as those sacrosancts are "
he said, referring TO the measures
proponents.
He added that the South has "re-
sisted mob rule until thank God. it
has gradually vanished"
Smith said natural conditions in
South Carolina are so favorab bic that
1t takes less money to live "reasona blv
and comfortably" there than it does
in New England.
Two amendments limiting the scope
OF the Wage-and-hour bill were de-
feated yesterday.
The Senate first approved a pro-
posal by Senator Reynolds. Democrat.

PALESTINE PLAN
Tells British Colonial Secre.
tary U. S. Jewry Opposes
Partition.
BY the Associated Press.


GENEVA, July 3l.-Rabbl Stephen
S. Wise of New York stated the oppo-
stion of American Jewish leaders to
Britain's plan to partition Palestine
in a long talk yesterday with William
G. A. Ormsby-Gore, British colonial
secretary
Ormsby-Gore was in Geneva to
present the British plan-for estab-
lishment of independent Jewish and
Arab states and British mandate in
the Holy Land-to the Permanent
Mandates Commission of the League
of Nations
A second Arab representative, mem
Der Of prominent Jerusalem family,
arrived and announced he would sup
port the partition plan. One Arab
delegation opposing the plan was al
ready here
The newest arrival was believed a
supporter of the Emir of Transjordan,
who would be political leader of the
proposed Arab state.
Present Governments.
Britain now governs Palestine un-
der a League Of Nations mandate and
league approval is necessary for any
change
Doubt that the League Commission
would commit itself rose when some
members expressed doubt they were
empowered to draft a preliminary
opinion as asked by the League Coun-
Gil They said they were acting in a
personal capacity.
The Italian chairman, the Marquis
Alberto Theodoli, did not appear. 1t
was believed the Italian Government
was continuing its protest against the
Leagues action on Ethiopia.
States British Policy.
Ormsby-Gore, who delivered lone
statement of British policy in the
private afternoon session, indicated he
would not press for an immediate de-
cision Some authorities suggested
that Britain merely proposed the plan
in order to force Arab and Jews tc
find their own solution.
A delegation from the Arab Su-
preme Council submitted memoran-
DUN to the commission blaming the
British and the Jews for disturbances
in Palestine. 1t vigorously opposed
partition.
(In Jerusalem the British. under
emergency regulations, forbade polti-
cal meetings and professions without
special permission.)

Here Is the wonderful story of these

In the Spring. the tree is one of the

The Winter rains have all been
