REGIONAL DIRECTORS
OF National Labor Relations
Board-Powers, Duties

The national labor relations act
authorizes the board to Establish or
utilize such regional, local or other
agencies as may from time to
time be needed" (Section a (a)).
1t further provides that the board
may, by one or more Of its members
or by such agents or agencies as it
may designate, prosecute any inquiry
necessary to it's functions in any part
of the United States" (Section 81.
Under Section of the act the board
is empowered to make such rules and
regulations as may be necessary to
carry out the provisions of the act.
The board has divided the United
States into twenty-one regions. Each
of these regions has central office,
at the head Of which is an official
of the board called regional director
The duties and functions of these va
rious regional directors, who are SIM
ply agents of the board are defined in
the rules and regulations of the board
as amended, dated April 27, 1886. I'm
der these rules and regulations re-
gional director has two main duties:
First, the regional director is en-
powered to receive petitions for the
designation of representatives of en-
ployes. His duty goes no further
than receiving the petition, setting
the date for hearing, and in some
cases designating the trial examiner
to preside at the hearing. The board
itself orders the hearing. The re-
gional director in regard to petitions
for elections has the duty to investi-
gate whether there is a controversy
affecting commerce.
Second, the regional director re-
ceives charges of unfair labor prac
tices against an employer and on rec
ommendation Of the regional attorney
either issues a complaint against the
employer on these charges or refuses
to issue the complaint. Thus the re-
gional attorney, in most cases, rather
than the regional director, determines
whether the complaint is to be issued.
Presumably the regional director must
follow the recommendation Of the at
torney. 1t should be noted that where
the regional director refuses to issue
a complaint based on charges Of unfair

labor practical filed with him, that
his refusal is not final but is review
able by the National Labor Relations
Board.
The National~Labor Relations Act
gives the Board absolutely no powers
Of mediation or conciliation; and the
Act expressly says that nothing there
in shall be construed to authorize the
Board to appoint individuals for such
purposes, where such service may be
obtained from the Department of
Labor (Section 4(a) J. As is well
known, the Secretary of Labor has the
power under the Act of March a, 1918
to act as mediator and to appoint
commissioners of conciliations in labor
disputes.
1t is true that the regional director
is authorized to try to secure compli-
ance with the law without a hearing
but this authorization does not ex-
tend to authorize him to act as medi-
ator of any dispute.
The foregoing constitutes the sole
duties of a regional director of the
National Labor Relations Board out
side of his duty to act as the admin
istrative officer of the regional office

 Hollywood-Phil Began probably would have been perfectly happy if he had gone right on being a poe liceman. Even now, with his movie and radio prominence, he figures he will have to manage carefully if his future is to provide any more con- tentment or security than most po- licemen have.
 "You think that sounds screwy," challenged the singing actor.
 "Listen: If I had stayed on the New York force and never even got above 8 second-grade detective, which was, could have retired in 1851, at the age of 45, with a pen- sion of $50 a week. I'd have owned my home and I'd have been health fer than any movie actor of 45 that you can name.
 "Thirty bucks doesn't sound like much, in Hollywood. But 1t takes an investment of about $300,00 to earn even, little income like that. You wouldn't believe how few big people in this town have socked away that much cash.
 "We're saving our doSgh, though. We're not going Hollywood. We're going to have an income of $l00 a week! Hey, Jo?" He looked at Mrs. Began, who is as Irish and pretty as shamrock, only more freckled. She nodded.
 "Jo,-there-she's responsible for everything" said her husband. "She made me quit my job on the force for radio, and she made me come to Hollywood and try my luck while she and the kids stayed behind and waited until I got a break. Boy! I've sure been lucky!"

FOOTBALL LUCK
 IS STILL SOUR
Wet Snow Promises Dis. maj Day for Those Who
 ThrOng to GridirOns

Luck of football fans, as relates to weather on Saturday afternoons, failed them again today when snow, wet and futile snow, but snow de- signed to muddy many a football field, continued throughout the early morning with promise of flurries throughout the day. Rain the last two Saturdays was a Ser- ious factor in shortening attend ance at various of the popular stadia of the country.
 Today's storm" will affect at- tendance at various fields in New England but the early sell-out at Boston, where Yale and Harvard meet for the 56th time indicates that 58,OOO fans will fill the stadium at Cambridge regardless of weather conditions. Many from Waterbury planned attending the Dartmouth Columbia game at New York and carried through with their plans in spite of the snow today.
 The snow fell locally from II o'clock yesterday, intermittently throughout the day and evening, turning to sleet for 8 time last night. No serious accidents were reported to police, however, as due to the slippery condition of the highways.
 While fields in the suburbs showed white, the snow failed to "catch hold" in the city proper and the temperature rose today from around freezing to the 40-degree mark. The precipitation gained in volume at mid-morning, giving promise of blanketing the rural areas during the day.

 When Ma was through with her, she looked fine. She wore cowboy denim pants-"they're most prac- tical of all," Ma declared - and hiking boots, a mannish red shirt, and a real mans hat which Ma had given her with the promise that 1t would ward off the Ari- zona sun.

Over the night he had managed to get 8 hair cut and shave, concessions to the fact that his new partner was 8 woman.

 The men had bought and out fitted all the saddle horses and pack mules, so that the party was ready to travel soon after noon. Mary Melissa was highly excited as they rode away. They wouldn't do all the 20 miles to Bob's cabin that afternoon, he told them, but would camp en route. They could pick up the Indian cook there next morning with only 10-minute stop, then proceed on toward the Montezuma range and the cliff dwelling.
 Camp was simple that first night, and although Mary Melissa was saddle sore next day, the group rode on easily. Everybody had slept well. In his mind Bob Barry rechecked every detail care. fully. He could think of no item of equipment lacking. Old Hades had proven @ genius at outfitting. The Indian cook would complete the party's personnel.
