Employers Opinions
On Labor Problems
Held Within Law
Court Soys Remarks Alone
Do Not Necessarily
Constitute Coercion

By the Associated Press.
The Supreme Court held today
that a company might express 'fts
view on labor policies or problems"
without necessarily being guilty of
coercing its employees in violation of
the Wagner Act.
The court said that the law con-
tanned no injunction against express
sions by employers but that under
certain circumstances such utter
ances, in conjunction with other
acts, might constitute Illegal CO.
ercion.
Justice Murphy made this asser-
ton in 7-to-0 opinion returning
to the Labor Board litigation in
volving the Virginia Electric &
Power Co. for "a redetermination of
the issues in the light of this opin-
ion"
The board had found that a un-
ion of company employees was a
company dominated union, but the
Supreme Court said this conclusion
seems based heavily upon findings
WIllCIl llOG 1lCC IL ohl oAA4b46aAVS
and doubt"
Task for Board.
I'VE believe" the opinion added,
"that the board, and not this court,
should undertake the task of clari-
f1cation."
Explaining that the board spe-
cifically found that bulletin issued
by the company and an address
read by company officials inter
fered with, restrained and coerced"
the employees, the opinion added:
"The company strongly urges that
such a finding is repugnant to the
first freedom of speech and press)
amendment. Neither the (Wagner)
Act nor the boards order here en-
joins the employer from expressing
its view on labor policies or prob
lens, nor is penalty imposed
upon it because of any utterances
which it has made.
For Employees Protection.
THE sanctions of the act are i'm
posed not in punishment of the en-
ployer but for the protection OF the
employees. The employer in this
case is as free now as ever to take
any side it may choose on this
controversial issue.
But certainly conduct, though
evidenced in part by speech, may
amount in connection with other
circumstances to coercion within
the meaning of the act. If the total
activities of an employer restrain
or coerce his employees in their free
choice, then those employees are
entitled to the protection Of the
act"

SINGAPORE, Dec. % (NA.NA).
The brave and tragic story of
Penang was told over the Singapore
radio Saturday night b" F. D.
Bisseker, member of the Straits
Settlement Legislative Council and
a leading businessman of Penang.
He was in the British outpost off
the coast of northern Malaga dur
ing three ruthless Japanese bomb
ing and machine cunning raids.
His story of what happened in
Penang was intended to show Singa-
port and other cities in Malaga
what they must expect if Japanese
bembers are permitted to attack
them as they did Penang.
Only those who know eastern
cities with their mixed populations
can understand why Penang's peo-
pie were terrified. They forgot all
they had learned about air raid pre-
cautions and self-protection and
this caused more casualties than
should have been the case.
