Unions Losing Elections
Warned Against Strikes
By the Associated Press.

oy tue hSSOClaleQ 1TeSS.
Senator Ellender, Democrat, of
Louisiana asserted yesterday that If
unions which lose elections con-
Quoted by the National Labor Rela-
tions Board continue to resort to
strikes and boycotts to offset the
vote results, Congress may take a
hand to stop such practices.
The Louisiana Senator, presiding
at a Senate Labor Subcommittee
hearing on proposed amendments to
the Wagner Act, made the declara-
ton during testimony of Charles
Fahy, general counsel for the Labor
Board.
Mr.. Fahy defended the action of
the board in permitting losing
unions to file complaints against
their successful opponents. He said
the board could not avoid taking
jurisdiction where there were
charges that the winning union had
INDUCED in unfair labor practices.
Testimony has showed this occurred
in several instances.
"It's so easy for losing union to
bring up charge" Senator Ellender
contended. There are so many
people who are bad losers that they
are willing to sell their souls in
order to win out. You have to re-
member that when you are dealing
with human beings"
Mr.. Fahy said the board recog-
curb on illegitimate strikes and boy
colts by unsuccessful unions after
the board holds elections to deter
mine collective bargaining spokes-
men. The remedy lies in separate
action by Congress on this question
and not in amendment of the Wag-
ner Act, he asserted.

F. B. |. Reserve Unit
Plans Are Disclosed
By J. Edgar Hoover
Enforcement Suggestions
Made in Talk Before
Police Academy

Tentative plans. for establishment
of a Federal Bureau of Investiga-
tion reserve unit, in which graduates
OF the National Police Academy
would be members, to provide re-
placements In time of war and
emergencies, were revealed today by
F. B. I. Director J. Edgar Hoover in
an address to the academy's 11th
graduating class.
With this years 38 graduates, the
academy alumni roll now totals 37O
enough for the beginning of a sub
stantial reserve corps, Mr.. Hoover
pointed out.
Attorney General Frank Murphy
commended the spirit of civic pride
indicated by the success of the acad-
emy. This class" he said, is q
symbol Of the struggle for every
thing decent and fine"
This theme was developed further
by the Rev. Edmund A. Walsh, vice
president of Georgetown University
who said the vigor of police activity
today is in part organized reaction
against an era of greed out of which
the people of the United States are
now passing.
Director Hoover, after outlining
weaknesses Of local law enforcement
at present, made the following sug-
gestions:
l. Give local chiefs of police a rea-
sonably secure tenure of office.
2. Stop brass band tactics" O.
police raids. Constant pressure on
criminals is what is needed, he
maintained, not sporadic drives"
3. Encouragement of efficient vet
courteous exercise of duty by Of
ficers.
Others on the program were James
F. 1ngoldsby of the Bristol tVaD Po-
lice Department, president of the
graduating class; DR.. Albert Joseph
Mccartney, pastor of Covenant-Fi
Presbyterian Church, who delivered
the invocation and benediction, and
Hugh H. Clegg, assistant director of
