Federation or Labor Fires Six Rebel Unions
Ladies' Garment Workers Union Is Still Retained on Roster-Six Unions Expelled Are Members
 of CIO Group

f The garment workers union now is the only one of the original ten unions which seeded from the A. F. of L. to form the c. I. O., that has not been formally elected.
 The Federation of Flat Glass Workers, the International Union of Mine, Mill and Shelter Workers and Lewis own United Mine Workers were busted at the previous coun- Gil meeting in Miami.
 The six unions expelled yesterday and their claimed membership are:
 Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers of North America dncluding the steel work CTS organizing committee), 519,20O; United Textile Workers, 450,000; United Automobile Workers of America, 100000; Amalgamated Clothing Workers, 100000; Inter national Union. Oil Field, Gas Well and Refinery Workers, 100000, and United Rubber Workers of Amer ica, 78,000.
 No Dues for Two Years
 None of those have paid dues or taken any part in federation activi- ties for nearly two years.
 Lewis would not comment on the federations latest action. When his United Mine Workers were expelled he said that the action is unim- portant and of little significance. '"
 John Brophy, c. I. O. director, said in Milwaukee that the federa- tion's action was "in keeping with that groups policy of obstruction and splitting tn elabor move ment."

Garment Workers to Act


 New York, May -CUP)-The 1n- ternational Ladies Garment Work CTS union, the only one of the seven suspended c. I. O. unions whose charter was spared yesterday by the American Federation of Labor ex- ecutive council, is to take definite stand in tn elabor union controversy at a meetin gof it's directors late this month.
 David Dubinsky, the garment workers president, has always ad- vocated peace between the federa- ton and the Committee for Indus trial Organization. Last month when the CIO unions voted to form a national organization in com petition with the federation, he sai dsuch action would cause the garment workers to reconsider their affiliation
 The disagreement between Dubin- sky and John L. Lewis, CIO leader, was aggravated yesterday when Dubinsky declined to accept an ap- pointment as chairman of the CIO housing committee.
 When the federation failed to oust Dubinsky's union yesterday it was considered a friendly gesture that might lure the garment work CTS back into the fold In declining the CIO offer, Dubinsky said nc housing committee could be effec- tive without support of the fedora. ton building trades union.
