alton of sixty branch Offices, to be
completed before the first of the year,

mission.
First appointments announced were
the managers of 81 of the 60 branch
Offices of the Commission to be located
in principal cities throughout the
state for the registration of unemploy-

DR.. E. L. Bowman, head of the per-

first of a series of training conferences

all phases Of the work pertaining to
registering applicants for work and
the procedure Of filing claims for bene-

Equipment duplicating that to be
used in the local Offices was set up
in the conference rooms for the man.
ayers to observe and study the hand
ling of claims, the same as this work
will be done in the local Offices after

registration and placement activities

unemployed worker must be register

for collective bargaining and to have
contracts made as result of that
bargaining he declared. Nothing
that the employers had done deprived
them Of that right. Nor did the con-
tracts make the brotherhood and its
locals exclusive representatives for
collective bargaining. On that point
the contracts speak for themselves.
They simply constitute the brother
hood the collective bargaining agency
for those employees who are it's own
members.
"The board by it's order did not di-
rect an election to ascertain who
should represent the employees for col
lective bargaining"
Board Acted Illegally
The Chief Justice was equally en-
phatc in ruling that the Labor Board
acted illegally in issuing the order re-
quiring the Edison companies to alb
rogate their contracts with the Elec-
trical Workers Brotherhood. In this
connection he discussed the section of
the National Labor Relations Act au-
thorizing the Board to take "affirma-
tive action" when it found an en-
ployer guilty Of unfair labor prac-
tees. He added:
"We think that this authority to
order affirmative action does not go
so far as to confer punitive jurisdic-
tion enabling the board to inhict upon
the employer any penalty it may
choose because he is engaged in un-
fair labor practices even though the
board may be Of the opinion that the
policies of the act might be effectuated
by such an order"
GuesswOrk Used
Declaring that the Labor Boards
contention that membership in the
Electrical Workers Brotherhood was
due to unfair labor practices applied
by the Edison companies was not
based on ascertained facts but on
mere guesswork, the Chief Justice af-
firmed the right Of the Brotherhood
to form locals and solicit members
and the right of the employees to join
the Brotherhood.
"These rights" he said, Cannot be
brushed aside as immaterial for they
are of the very essence of the rights
which the Labor Relations Act was
passed to protect and the board could
not ignore or override them in pro-
Tossing to effectuate the policies of the
act.
"To say that of the 10000 who did
join there were not those who joined
voluntarily or that the brotherhood
did not have members whom it could
properly represent in making these
contracts would be to indulge in ex-
travagant and unwarranted assump-
ton. The employers practices, which
were complained of, could be stopped
without imperiling the interests OF
those who, for all that appears, had
exercised freely their right of choice
Board Lacked Power
"We conclude that the board was
without authority to require the pc
titioning companies to desist from
giving effect to the brotherhood con-
tracts, as provided in subdivision (f)
of paragraph one of the boards or
der"
In another portion of the opinion
the Supreme Court upheld the Labor

But this business Of Mayor Hague
raises the whole question. Who loves
liberty? Who really believes in free

from family Of writer's, and when
we put a product on the open market
we've got to subject it to the un-

Blackmail From the Left.
The left boys also don't mind using
blackmail to suppress free speech and
free action. Here's the latest case.
Mr.. Lundberg wrote 4 book called
Americas Sixty Families" published
by the Vanguard Press, and given
Nationwide publicity in a broadcast
by Mr.. 1ckes. The New York Herald
Tribune carried an advertisement of
this book.
On the basis OF that advertisement
they found themselves faced with a
libel suit by Du Pont, including them
along with the author of the book and
its publisher. They Cancelled further
advertisements which might be libelous
pending the outcome of the suit;
perfectly reasonable action.
But the books publisher sent out
letter to writer's alleging that the sus-
pension OF this specific advertising was
a suppression of free speech, and Mr..
1ckes, a responsible cabinet minister,
handed out photostat OF the letter
at his press conference without even
taking the trouble to investigate the
facts.
This is an oblique attack on free
speech. Not on the part OF the Herald
Tribune, but on the part OF the VAN
guard Press. for again it is the same
unfair pressure that other businesses
use to prevent organs of public opin-
ion from attempting to hew to the
truth. am happy to say that the
Vanguard Press has corrected its first
letter by another, and I hope Mr..
1ckes will give it equal publicity.
OF course, the gentlemen who were
so excited about the Supreme Court
issue-the American Bar Association,
for instance-will say that Jersey City
Is not a national issue. I disagree
with them. Jersey Cities and Louis
ianas make up in the aggregate the
United States of America, and if local
