CLAIMS MAJORITY

Although the undersigned union
represents a clear majority of the
employees of the power division Uf
the Imperial Irrigation district, tie
district has refused, for more than
six months, to meet or bargain in
any respect with the representatives
of its employees.
The Imperial Irrigation district
has ignored deliberately the funda
mental rights of its employees to
select bargaining agent to repre-
sent them with respect to wages,
hours and working conditions.
THE Imperial Irrigation district
has refused to recognize the law of
the state of California and of The
United States which provides that it
is a matter of public policy that
the right of collective bargaining
shall be insured to employees.
The Imperial Irrigation district
has gone so far as to deny to the
representatives of its employees il
the power division the simple right
of meeting with the representatives
of the Imperial Irrigation district
to the end that labor disputes now
in existence may be harmoniou5iy
settled.
I'VE will advise the employees to
continue at their work for the re-
qui.ed thirty 800 days and then
we request that at the expiration
of such time, the National Labor
Relations Board take a secret bal
lot with respect to this dispute"

Post Office Requested
10 Answer Charge
Of Aiding Wa|kout

The Post Once Department was
called on today to answer charges
that postal service to a strike bound
g, Montgomery Ward store in Portland,
Greg, was curtailed, presumably in
support of the walkout.
The accusation was made before
. the committee, headed by Repre-
sentative Smith, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia, which is investigating acts of
: Government agencies. The depart
\ ment has been asked to send rep
resentative to the committee hear
ings, but it was not expected that
an explanation would be made until
some time next week, after data
is obtained from Portland.
Meanwhile, Undersecretary of War
Patterson, or an aide, was. expected
to appear before the group today to
explain charges that operating costs
at New England shell plant have
skyrocketed since the Army took
over>production in August, 1912.
Instructed BY Washington.
John A. Barr, attorney for Mont
gomery Ward, yesterday told the
committee of the postal incident,
which he said occurred during a
strike at the Portland store in May,
1941. The Portland postmaster, Mr..
Barr said, notified the local store
manager that service would be cur
tailed because of instructions from
Washington. Several days later,
Mr.. Barr added, the store closed and
did not reopen until the strike was
settled late in July. 1941.
Asked by Mr.. Smith "how come"
the mail was sidetracked to ware
house in Portland. Mr.. Barr said
obviously" the action was taken to
support the strike. which involved
the company's union policies.
From H. c. Dodge. president of
the S. A. Woods Machine Co., South
Boston, Mass. which the War De-
partment seized in August, 1912, fol-
lowing labor dispute. the commit
tee heard that production costs
have shot upward approximately
$4,000 a day. and production has
been "drastically curtailed" since
Government seizure and subsequent
operation under lease by the Murray
Co., Dallas, Tex.
Hits WLB Policies.
Mr.. Dodge, who has headed the
company since 1912, assailed the
War Labor Boards policies and said
Mr.. Patterson took the position that
there is no law" except the Presi-
dent during conversations before the
actual seizure.
Mr.. Barrs testimony, given as the
committee entered the second day of
hearings on War Labor Board &C
tions, was devoted largely to Mont
gomery Wards dealings with the
board
The company's main differences
with the board, Mr.. Barr said, re-
suited from orders requiring union
security clauses in contracts die
tated by the board in labor disputes.
