Ford Asks 10 Present
New Testimony on
1887 Plant Riots
Company Apprehensive
Of q Sit-Down Strike,
N. L. R. B. Is Told
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Ford Motor Co. asked the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board today
for permission to offer new testi-
mony to prove it's friendliness to la
Dor and its innocence of wrong
doing in the May, 1887. fight at
Ford's River Rouge plant.
Several organizers of the United
Automobile Workers of America
were severely beaten in the fight,
but, today's motion said:
The persons who participated in
the riots of May 26 were persons as
signed to no duties by the respond
ent fthe company in connection
with its preparations. and a few
persons who were assigned to such
duties, but who departed from their
instructions
Those beaten had attempted to
pass out union literature and, the
motion continued, on no subsequent
occasions were the persons who
participated in the distribution of
literature molested by any employees
OF respondent"
The document said that for
months previously the company was
"apprehensive of an attempt by the
U. A. w. to inaugurate sit-down
strike" at River Eeuge.
For over Is years." it added in
general statement of policy, re
spondent and its predecessor COM
panies have been pioneers in paying
higher wages, in shortening working
hours, and in bettering working con-
ditions."
Asking for permission to submit
new evidence, the company said this
was needed to establish that Henry
Ford, fn stating that, although his
men are free to join a union or not
as they choose, he believes they
would be better of without one, and
that respondent. in making similar
views known to its employees, were
exercising in a reasonable manner
the constitutional rights of free
dom of speech and freedom of the
press"
The company accused a previous
N. L. r. B. trial examiner of ex-
Guiding evidence as to the violent
and lawless activities of the C. 10.
and the U. A. w."

Pay Checks Delayed
For 1870 on Staff
Of Job|ess Aid Board
Social Security Agency
To Meet Tomorrow to
Release Funds

Midmonth pay checks, totaling
about $4,000 and due Wednesday,
will come anywhere from one to
three days late to 100 employees Of
the District Unemployment Com
pensation Board.
Director John Marshall of the
board said today he had been noti-
fed by the Social Security Board of
delay in the authorization of the
required funds until Thursday. He
estimated it will take until Satur-
day, or possibly even until Monday,
to clear the checks through to the
employees.
At the Social Security Board, how
ever, it was stated, the board will
meet tomorrow to release the funds.
A spokesman said that distribution
of the administration funds for the
District and the States had been
tied up in the first deficiency bill
He said, however, that he did not
anticipate a similar delay among
the States as there were generally
funds available to meet the pay
mentS on the required day.
The funds will have to be cleared
through the auditors Office, the Gen.
eral Accounting Office and the
Treasury, but the auditors Office
stated that If the funds we're re-
leased tomorrow the employees might
receive their pay Thursday-the day
after pay day.
Mr.. Marshall said the delay was
due to procedure under which
the Social Security Board, since the
beginning of the current year, ap-
proves allotments for each pay day
as it comes along. Previously, he
said, a lump sum was allotted,
against which the board could draw
for its administrative expenses.

Direct Action Averted
On Chip Roberts Fees
BY the Associated Press.

oS tIlC ASSUClateu TTeSS.
ATLANTA, March 13.-The Geor-
gia House upheld the State hospital
authority in test vote today, ap-
parently removing possibility of di-
rect legislative action in the con-
troversy stirred by fees paid to a
firm headed by L. w. Robert, jr.,
secretary of the Democratic National
Committee.
Representative John Parker of
Colquitt County asked the House to
adopt a resolution urging P. w. A.
Administrator Harold Ickes to dis
approve the per cent architectural
and engineering fees the authority
contracted to pay Robert & Co. OF
Atlanta for work on a 81 900, 900 ex-
pansion program at the State hos
pital in Milledgeville. The House
rejected this resolution, sc to 73.
On the heels of this setback, Mr..
Parker Withdrew his previously Of
fered bill to abolish the authority,
created at the behest of the admin
istration at the start of this session.
