BY NLRB RULING
AFL Group Wins in Row
For Leadership Here

The National Labor Relations
Board today rejected the petition
of the Transport Workers Union,
q Go affiliate, to be recognized
as the representative Of Capital
Transit Company workers in wage
Negotiations.
NLRB officials have been inves.
tigating the local situation the
past week following the spirited
drive made by TWU leaders to
wrest leadership from Local CSC
Of the AmalgaInated Association
OF Street Electric Railway and
Motor Coach Employees Of America,
affiliated with AFL.
BASIS OF RULING
The NLRB decision was based
on negative findings regarding the
question Of whether commerce"
was affected and the "sutficlency"
Of TWU signatures.
: Wage negotiations between Capt.
tai Transit Company officials and
Amalgamated spokesman, sus-
pended during the investigation,
, will be resumed in accordance
with a long-standing agreement to
arbitrate" differences. The
working contract had expired April
! and then extended to April Is.
While awaiting the NLRB de-
cision, William F. Simms, presi-
dent, and John H. Goodman, bust
ness agent and secretary Of Anal
gamated, issued a joint statement
denouncing "misStatement Of
facts" made by TWU spokesman
during the intensive organization
drive.
N. Y. ORGANIZATION
They said that TWU had been
organized in New York four years
ago as a CIO rival to Amalga'
mated which had been affiliated
with AFL Is years.
Local Division $50. they said,
had had a contract with the local
transit company 81 years and
"during this time without strikes
but by arbitration wages have been
greatly increased"
Washington is one Of the
few cities in the United States
where all street cars are not
one-man cars, but where a large
majority are still operated by
two men. Yet, in the face Of this
record, the Transport Workers
Union have the audacity to refer
to Local Division $50 as a com.
pany union. In other words, in
the face Of our wonderful record
We are called traitors to union

BENEFIT CLAIMED
Although TWU leaders could
not be reached today officials of

Regardless Of the findings Of
