bership and checkoff clauses on
the contention that they consti-
tute a CLOSED shop" and violate
American principles of liberty and
freedom" further charged the
WLB with encouraging strikes.
''The time has come for the

"The boards policy of granting
special privileges has led TO a
breakdown of collective bar

stroyed."
The company statement pre-
pared in a five-hour session last

A Today search by the army
navy and FBI has disclosed no evi
dence of any japanese saboteur'
landing in the vicinity of the
balloon or along the courses of il,
probable flight across u, S. terri
tory.
The official announcement o
the FBI read:
"On Dec. IL, 1914, wood
chopper, Owen Hill. and his
father, o. Is. Hill, who had been
working in a mountainous forest
region II miles southwest of
Kalispell, Mont. rs.,orted to
the sheriffs office there his
discovery of an object which he
thought was parachute.
1T was brought into town
the next day and the FBI adj
vised.
Attached to the-side- nf=the-
balloon was an incendiary de-
vice with fuse. apparently
Intended for its destruction"
The balloons finders, the two
Hills, disclosed one fact 10 Mon
tana friends that was not in
cluded in the FBI announcement
1t was that the balloon was found
hanging TO snow covered trees. al.
most Debated, but free Of snow.
This meant it had landed after
a snowfall, two days old. The
Hills also disclosed that there
were no footprints in the snow
beneath the tree.
The cut cable" however. pro-
voked speculation that a basket
may have been attached to the
balloon.

the finding of a japanese free bal

FOUR POSSIBILITIES

Military experts speculatec
along four lines. which were. in
order of their probability:
. The balloon was a barrage
balloon which escaped from
some japanese military post
either in the Japanese islands
or in some Jap Pacific island
outpost.
. The balloon brought Japanese
saboteurs TO the United States,
who landed in the Pacific north
west by parachute long before
the gas bag came - rest.
. The balloon was a new Japa-
nese secret apon which
carried explosives direc te d
against military objective in
the northwest United States bat
which dropped the explosives in
some remote mountainous sec
ton.
. Inc balloon was released
from a Japanese submarine, a
short distance off the Pacific
shoreline, TO land either sabo-
-teurs, enemy spies or explosives.

make retroactive TO Sept. i,
,le4S. -~'--
"The union rejected both of
Wards offers. Despite the
unions rejection, Wards Is pIac-
Ing these minimum rates In
sieffcct."
The firms new rates represent
an increase of approximately D
cents an hour for most employees.
In Chicago, board chairman
Sewell Avery said he knew moth
ing of the pay raises granted by
r. w. Rosevear, Detroit area
manager. He said the increase was
made independently and did not
change his previously announced
attitude that the company can
not in good citizenship comply
with the WLB directive"
JUDGE SIGNS ORDER
Meanwhile, In circuit court,
Judge John V. Brennan signed an
order requiring the union TO show
cause on Dec. u why it should
not be restricted from committing
acts Of violence.
In issuing the order. Brennan
complied with company petition
which charges numerous acts OF
violence against employees but said
he was confident police had the
situation under control.
The judge added, however, that
he was prepared TO grant an i'm.
mediate injunction against the
union when. and if, the situation
should require II.
OTHER STRIKES
The wage increase affected the
Detroit area stores only, Strikes
are in progress in Montgomery
Ward outlets in six other cities.
Union leaders said they would
continue the strike and picket
ing until the WLB order is
obeyed or seizure is effected.
President R. J. Thomas OF the
UAW-CIO announced in Washing
ton today that he had telegraphed
President Roosevelt urging inme-
date seizure of Montgomery
Ward properties for defiance of
the directives.
A special mass meeting TO rally
support for the strikers among
AUW-CIO locals will be held at
the hall of Local 157, Fourteenth
and McGraw, at 1880 p. m. Thurs
day II the issue is not settled by
that time.
In a wire to the WLB last night,
Avery indicated a willingness TO
grant wage increase, but said:
The board knows very well
that the real Issue arises from
its attempt TO impose upon
Wards q closed shop In the
form Of maintenance Of MEM
bership together with the
checkoh Of union dues"
The spokesman also indicated
that no further hearings would
be held and that Ward officials
had refused 10 attend two former
hearings.
AveryS wire last night said
that If the board desires a
further hearing, Wards. as al
ways, will be happy TO attend"
Two hours before Avery sent
his wire. Davis issued last min
Ute appeal 10 the company and
voiced the threat that the "WLB
would take the next step" unless
the company had capitulated by
this morning. -
