Ruthlessness and a disregard
 for human rights during a strike were among the accusations made against James H. Rand, IT,, above, head of Remington Ran Corp, by
 the National Labor Relations Board
 groups, backed by thugs mas
 querading as employees" says the
 report. Communities allegedly were terrorized into antistrike
 campaigns by threats to move
 plants away. In some instances
 the threats were carried out.
 While threatening to move it's
 Norwood and Syracuse plants to
 Ilion, the board says, the com pany had For Sale" sign on it's
 Ilion plant as part of the propa-
 ganda technique.
 When other tactics failed. the board charges, the company hired thousands of strikebreakers, de. scribing them to the public as loyal employees" Four ke-break- ing agencies were employed - in- cluding Bergoff.
 Scenes of disordeS and violence. to be described to the public as riots" the boards decision says, were deliberately staged by agents of the company 50 that the framed violence could later serve as the basis for injunctions against the unions, requests for police protection and Jaw and order tirades in the press. ..... Innocent Men Arrested
 Tn the planning of these dis orders, the respondent exhibited the small value 1t placed on human life. for with evenhandedness 1t stood willing to sacrifice the lives of the mben whom 1t hired to break the strike, as well as those of the strikers. Likewise, in having it's agents commit acts of violence in such fashion as to ascribe the guilt to the strikers, and in Its de- liberate provocation of disorders by the strikers, 1t was not deterred by the knowledge that innocent men would be arrested and fined, that a citizenry, made almost hysterical through the respondents subtle playing upon its emotion and thoughts, would inflict excessive punishment upon men acting under infuriating provocation. 7
 The board describes Bands de- vice of deliberately provoking dis order at the Tonawanda plant so that he could photograph 1t and use the pictures to obtain an in- junction against the union members based upon their supposed violence For that purpose Rand had over 75 Of Bergoff's 'plugufllies' attempt to march into the plant under condi- tions calculated to make the sthik- CTS resist them" Bergoff testified he was "sore as the devil," says the board, accusing Rand of staging the show despite the danger to lives of Bergoff's men,"
 At Middletown Rand was driven up and down the picket line In an automobile, deliberately thumb ing his nose at the group of pickets," declares the report.
 Miss Perkins and Rand, one gath CTS, had plenty to talk about.
