Wlb Gives Grievance
Rights 10 Foremen's
Unions in New Ru|ino
Four Shipyord Groups
Affected by First
Supervisory Decision
BY the Associated Press


The War Labor Board today
granted grievance machinery to
four shipbuilding supervisors
unions-its first decisions deter
mining working conditions for
foremen.
The board, however, did not direct
the employing companies involved
to recognize the unions or bargain
with them. WLB has taken the
stand that the status of foremen's
organizations is for the National
Labor Relations Board to decide.
The board granted grievance ma
chlnery to unions at the Federal
Shipbuilding & Drydock Co. yards
in Kearny and Port Newark, N. j.;
Maryland Drydock Co.. Baltimore
and Baldwin Locomotive Works,
Eddystone, Pa.
The CIO-Marine and Shipbuilding
Workers represent the 1900 super
visors at Federal Shipbuilding and
300 at Maryland Drydock The AFL-
Machinists represent 700 supervisory
employees at Baldwin.
The NLRB recently upheld the
American Foremen's Association at
the Packard Motor Car Co., Detroit,
as a proper bargaining agent and
ordered an election there. This was
based on the supposition that the
association would remain independ-
ent of the AFL or CIO which rep
resented production workers at the
plants.
Today's WLB decision applies only
to CIO and AFL unions which also
represent production workers, be-
cause under the NLRB ruling they
at present exist in a sort of "twi-
light zone" of recognition.
