water the water enters the cavities
and the wood sinks.

Court Refuses Ruling
on Jim Crow Union

SAN FRANCISCO - Three
federal judges ruled today that
the so-called Jim Grow union
controversy between Negro ship
yard workers and the Interna-
tional Boilermakers Union could
not be settled in United States
District Court because it lacked
jurisdiction.
The judges, NJ. J. Roche, Louis
Goodman and A. F. st. Sure,
who consolidated three cases into
one, concurred in the decision
that the Boilermakers Union was
an unincorporated association
and therefore had no standing in
federal court.
Attorneys for the Negroes,
Herbert Resner and George An
derson, announced in court they
would seek further action in the
state courts.
The controversy grew out OF
the unions closed shop agree
ment with the shipbuilding con-
Germs. When a Washington ex-
ecutive order demanded no dis
in employment of
workers in the shipyards, the
union assertedly gave Negroes
clearance but Negro workers
failed to join and national Off
Gals of the organization formed
an auxiliary.
