Supreme Court
Opens Records Of
Unions To Juries
Unanimous Decision Made
In Recent Case Involving
Labor Executive

Washington, ID. G. ULNS).-A labor
executive cannot withhold records OF
his union from grand jury on the
plea that such evidence might incriEi-

Court of Appeals decision reversing a
contempt of court judgment against
Jasper White, assistant supervisor of
a local of the International Union of
Operating Engineers, at Mechanics
vile, Pa.
The case developed from government
investigation of alleged Irregularities
in connection with naval war construc-
ton at Mechanicsville. The Justice De
partment obtained subpoena for the
union records. White appeared before
the grand jury but twice refused 70
produce the documents, saying that il
might damage him either as union
official or an individual. Part of the
demanded records related To work
permits" or fees paid by nOn-union
men for the right to work.
The Supreme Court decision, written
by Justice Murphy, held that the con-
stitutional privilege TO refrain from
was essentially a
personal one, applying only to natural
individuals land cannot be utilized by
or on behalf of any organization"
"(The) records and papers are not
the private records of the individual
members of the organization" Justice
wrote. Were the cloak of
