BOARD
BIASED, SAYS
v N. KNUDSEN
E. Of c. Told Industrial
Unionism Exists on Law
Defying Forces
BUSINESS MEN CALL
FOR NLRB INQUIRY

WASHINGTON, May q. (UP).
President William 8. Knudsen Of
General Motors predicted in a
speech at the annual meeting of
the United States Chamber Of
Commerce today that the federal
government eventually would
have to take stand against in
dustrial unionism because it exists
con forces in defiance of law"
He accused the national labor
relations board of bias and charg-
ed that the Wagner labor rela-
tions act had dispelled equality
under the law.
An immediate investigation Of
the operation of the Wagner la.
Dor act and sharp curtailmsnt of
federal supervision of employe re-
lations in industry was demanded
yesterday in a resolution unani-
mously approved by hundreds of
delegates to the annual conven-
ton of the Chamber of Commerce
of the United States.
The resolution was offered at a
round-table meeting by j. S.
Sprott of Cincinnati, O., after
Senator Edward r. Burke, D.,
Nebr., had vigorously condemned
decisions of the national labor
board and demanded that its
members resign. If the resigna-
tions do not come voluntarily,
Burke said, they should be obtain
ed by compulsion.
Before the VOTE. c. S. Ching,
labor specialist for the United
States Rubber Products, Inc, New
York, bluntly proposed that I'VE
all quit calling Names" and that
industry recognize that 1t must
deal with organized labor and do
it in a way to inspire confidence
among the workers.
He said industry's first respon-
sibility is to win the friendship of
its employees and added that this
can not be done by placing
spies next to their work benches.
The tall, hulking labor expert re-
minded his hearers that I'VE
haven't had much sense in this
situation" and said that 1--WE bet
ter begin to get acquainted with
organized labor"
"The whole technique is to deal
with labor-if you have to-" he
declared. Don't deal with it, ex-
pecting the worst. Deal with it
expecting the best. 1t is no use to
bargain with it and then hope for
an earthquake. We should sit
down with labor and get away
from all this damnable name call
ing"
It was the most sharply-worded
lecture that chamber delegates
have heard since the New Deals
pro-labor policies thrust unionlsm
to the fore as major industrial
problem, but Ching was applaud
ed when he concluded.
At other round table conference
es, delegates heard Chester G:
Davis, a member of the federal
reserve board and former AAA
administrator, defend administra-
ton policies in increasing farm
income as having mitigrated the
force of the current depression.
New Deal tax policies, however,
were blamed by Morris s. Ire
maine, New York state comptrol-
Ter, as the chief factors in the
business slump. Emory S. Land,
chairman Of the U. S. maritime
commission, appealed for support
of the governments plan to ac-
celerate replacement construction
in the American merchant ma
rine. -

"A. F. of L. Broadcast Drdmdtizes Labor
Day History In Stirring Re-Endctment

Washington, D. C. (ILNS).-A new
and inspiring feature to the celebra-
tion of Labor Day this year is given
by the second of the Labor Parade
broadcast programs of the American
Federation of Labor. The broadcast
presents in dramatic fashion the first
Labor Day parade and follows the
progress of labor through more than
so years that have passed since. Part,
a significant part, is marked off by the
successive Labor Days.
The program, one of thirteen in the
Labor Parade" programs Of the A.
F. of L., has gone out for release
August 10 on over 60 stations through
out the country The first program,
released in July, met with an en-
thusiastic reception from both labor
and the general public.
1t is impossible, of course, to give
the full sweep of tone and music and
words together in printed words alone.
But it is the best thing that can be
done; and the broadcast is so fine that
much of it will get over, even under
that handicap. Here are some samples:

A. F. Of L. in it's monthly Survey of
Business. Business confidence is
Strengthening rapidly and production
and prices are turning upward.
ut is significant that though bust
ness activity fell back to within IS
per cent of the lowest depression
level, workers income was still So per
cent higher than it's depression bot
toms. For this, we may thank the
wage increases Of 1887 and the alb
sence of widespread wage cutting in
1888. This reserve Of buying pow
er has been bulwark against further
decline"
The survey notes that the increase
in unemployment has been checked;
in fact, June, which usually shows a
considerable drop, actually showed the
puny but encouraging gain Of 1000.
Business failures are fewer. Reports
of business improvements have come
from the inside, so to speak; National
Association of Purchasing Agents, for
instance, and Standard Statistics,

customers have jumped sharply"

DR.. John r. Steelman, Director of the
Cancellation Service of the United
States Department Of Labor told
delegates to the 54th annual conven-
ton Of the Ohio State Federation Of
Labor here last week.
"In reviewing our American scene
in relation to Great Britain and the
Scandinavian countries" DR.. Steelman
said, "We perceive that one factor,
lack Of gradualness III the evolution
Of our industrial relations, is largely
responsible for the disturbed state Of
our industrial relations.
Eve in this country are in the
rather unfortunate position of having
to compress within a period of COM
paratively few years the far-reaching
notifications in the relationship be-
tween employers and employees which
in other countries have taken decades
Of gradual change.
ut is not to the best interests of
powerful organizations to fight if diff
ferences can be reconciled by another
method" DR.. Steelman said GAS in
dustries become better organized, and
the associations Of employers and en-
ployes grow more powerful, differ
ences are more apt to be settled
amicably. Not understanding this
fact, many persons condemn the prin-
ciples Of collective bargaining, and
say that it brings conflict, not peace"
DR.. Steelman cited an opinion by
Chief Justice Hughes on collective
bargaining wherein he pointed out
that employees have as clear a right
to organize and select their repre-
sentatives for lawful purposes as
corporation has to organize it's busi-
ness and select its own officers and
agents. The Chief Justice said in that
opinion: ga Union is essential to give
laborers opportunity to deal on an
equality with their employer"

Also Plan a Department To
Embrace OH-Shore
Organizations

Washington, b, Civilian Green
president of the American Federation
of Labor, announced that a tentative
plan was in progress to form one
national and international union for
unlicensed seamen employed on Am
erican and Canadian merchant ships.
The announcement was made fol-
lowing number Of conferences with
a committee headed by Harry Lund-
berg, president of the Sailors Union
of the Pacific, formerly affiliated with
the International Seamen's Union of
America GA. F. of L.) 1t was agreed
to ask for a referendum among the
unlicensed personnel of seamen's or
ganizations on the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts and the Great Lakes.
The Sailors Union of the Pacific
Recently ratified the proposal to re-
affiliate with the A. F. of l..
Mr.. Green also said that possibly
the Executive Council of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor at it's meet
ing which opens in Atlantic City on
August % would take steps to create
an A. F.. of L. Maritime Department
to include in one alliance all off-shore
and waterfront organizations.
Text of Green's Statement
Following is the text of Mr.. Green's
announcement:
Tentative agreement has been
reached on plan to unite all the un-
licensed personnel on American and
Canadian merchant ships in a new in
ternational union chartered by the
American Federation of Labor.
"The plan already has been ratified
by a referendum vote of the Sailors
Union of the Pacific, an Independent
union which now seeks affiliation with
the A. F. of l..
During the next two weeks men,
bership meetings will be held by A.
F. of l.. Seanen's unions on the At
lantic and Gulf coasts and the Great
Lakes to vote on the merger.
"We confidently expect approval of
the proposal by the seamen who will
see the advantages of uniting and or
ganizing on national and internati-
onal basis for their own protection
and welfare. There is no national or
international organization Of seamen
in existence today.
"The organizations to become part
of the new union have present men,
bership of more than $4,000. An in
tensive organization drive will be in
augurated Immediately along the At
lantic and Gulf Coasts which is ex-
pected to double that membership
within year.
"Once the proposal is completely
ratified, an international charter will
be issued by the American Federation
of Labor to the Sailors Union of the
Pacific with full jurisdiction over unli-
censed personnel on American and
Canadian ships.
