In explaining the amendments, vii

Federation of Labor, made the follow

of l.. Executive Council:
"The necessity for some of the Am

"The Federation is now submitting

serve the dual purpose of strength

possibility of repetition Of prior NAL
administration in the more important
Of it's functions.
"The Federation is requesting Con
gress to enlarge the board to mem
bership of five. Nothing has beer
more amply established than that the
board cannot render its decision ex-
peditiously enough. Delays have oc.
casioned great hardships to working

These amendments have been in

request of the American Federation

the membership of the National La

Information On
Social Security

Elderly workers who have reached
lge 65 but who continue in employ
nent covered by the Social Security
Act may, in certain cases, increase
he amount of monthly checks which
hey will receive later under old-age
md survivors insurance by freezing
heir benefits now, even though they
continue to work.
This statement was made today by
Glenn H. Pittenger manager Of the
Social Security Board field office in
Youngstown, Ohio. Explaining his
statement Mr.. Pittenger said:
Monthly checks which are paid to
insured workers who reach age 65 and
retire from jobs covered by the So
cial Security Act are based on the
average monthly wages earned in en-
ployment of this character. Those
workers whose income from jobs is
declining will usually find it to their
advantage to claim their benefits, thus
freezing their average monthly pay,
even though they continue at work
and can not receive these Federal
government checks until they retire
from such jobs.
"For example, man who earned $3.50
month, as an average, up to the
time he was IS, and who could only
work part time, or had to take a job
at lower salary thereafter, should
file his claim now and freeze his bene-
fits Then he will receive the maxi
mum to which he is entitled under the
Social Security Act, when he does re-
tire from covered employment.
"Our office will be glad to discuss
individual cases Of such workers."

AFL Rubber Workers Union
Gains Higher Wage Rates

Hartford, Conn.-Settlement of the
strike of employees Of the Armstrong
Rubber Company was achieved at a
conference held in the office Of the
Governor of Connecticut.
John J. Murphy, New England or
ganizer for the AFL, reported that
the employees, represented by Federal
Labor Union No. 22343, won 10
cents an hour increase in minimum
pay rates as well as a general two
per cent wage increase for all en-
ployes. In addition, the company
agreed to adjust piece work rates,
establish seniority rights and provide
vacations with pay.

has been demonstrated that the great
est source of abuse by the board in
the past grew out of this uncontrolled
and unreviewable power over units.
another amendment which the
Federation proposes will go a long
way toward stabilizing industrial re-
lations and insuring industrial peace.
The amendment will deprive the board
Of the power to change a certification
for period of a year and will also
deprive it Of the power to change a
bargaining representative for a period
of a year where the bargaining rep
resentative has been recognized under
a valid union agreement.
"Our amendment also provides
methods for greater speed and eff
ficiency in representation cases. I'm
til now the board has construed the
act to require full formal hearing
before it may certify an exclusive bar
gaining representative. Even if all
parties to the proceeding consent to
an election without formal hearing,
the board has refused to grant formal
certification to the representative Sc
lected by the majority The amend
ment provides for the issuance of a
formal certificate to the designated
representative when formal hearing
has been waived. In addition, time
limits within which the board must
grant or deny certifcation are set
forth.
FINALLY, we propose an amendment
which would grant to bona tide labor
organizations the right of appeal in
representation cases. The need for
such an amendment has been abun-
dantly demonstrated Valuable, and
ofttimes basic rights of labor unions
are conclusively determined in repre-
sentation cases. Under the present
law labor unions are denied the right
to appeal from decisions Of the board
in such cases. 1t is in accord with
traditional American concepts that
the labor union have it's day in court
to appeal from decisions that directly
affect its interests. This amendment
will overcome the injustice pointed
to and commented upon by the courts
in the Longshoremen's case, in which
case the board wiped out American
Federation Of Labor bargaining units
in several cities by declaring the en-
tire West Coast to constitute single
unit for collective bargaining, and
this without affording the aggrieved
union the right of review in court"
