Army Gets Lond
In Hurry
u. S. Tsedsary DesGytmen

LANSING, Mich, April 27. -
When the U. S. Army wants land
in hurry, it can get it from the
Michigan State Conservation De-
partment in the time it takes to
write the leases.
Already the Army has leased
28,472 acres of state-owned north
ern lands for camps, airports,
bombing ranges, artillery range
and dock facilities. The land lies
in Crawford, Iosco, Alpena, Chip
pewa, Marquette and Delta Coun-
ties.
The 10 units leased instantly
from the state saved the Army an
incalculable number of man-days
of checking ownership records, ne
gotiating with private owners, and
possibly carrying costly condem-
nation proceedings through courts.
They also eliminate the possibility
of delay in using the sites, when
time was all-important.
For this emergency use of state
lands, the 10 leases cost 81 each.
They run for the duration.

Court Strikes
Blow At
NLRB Powers
BY Federated Press

CHICAGO-The NLRB's right
to designate departmental groups
as appropriate bargaining units
was denied by U. S. circuit court
of appeals in precedent making
decision which upheld management.
Employees of Marshall Field &
Co. were notified that the court
had set aside an NLRB order re-
quiring the company to bargain
collectively with Local 291, United
Retail Wholesale & Dept. Store
Employees (CIO), as the represent
atives of group of 450 workers.
A company spokesman declared
that the order had been appealed
because the store was opposed "to
any attempt to split the retail store
ino many small separate units"
The CIO won three out of seven
elections held Dec. Is, 1941, affect
ing small groups of workers.
The NLRB combined the three
groups into one bargaining unit,
which included employees of the
housekeeping and elevator depart
ments, some employees of the engi-
neering department and the section
maids.
