request for a strike vote at the

this week from Paul Porter, chair
man of the War Production
Boards Ship Sterilization Com
mittee to E. l.. Maneil, president
of the council.
Taking of the strike vote at the
yard has been set for February
z, John F. Lebus, regional direc-
tor of the National Labor Rela-
tions Board at New Orleans, has
announced and is a result of the
action of the Metal Trades Coun-
Gil in a letter dated January 2,
notifying the board of their in
tention to take the vote under the
provisions of the Smith-C Connolly
bill.
Question on the ballot, Mr. Lee
bus said, will be do you wish
to permit an interruption of war
production as a result of this dis
pute." Approximately 1000 main
tenance and production employees
at the yard will take part in the
vote unless the request is with
drawn by the Metal Trades Coun-
Gil.
The full text of Mr.. Porter's tel
egram follows:
II am informed by the National
Labor Relations Board that a
strike vote under the provisions
of the Smith onnally Act has
been ordered for the employees
of the ingalls, Shipbuilding Cor
poration at Pascagoula upon the
petition of the Pascagoula Metal
Trades Council.
1.-The Gulf Shipbuilding Zone
Standards negotiated and ratified
by the various unions affiliated
with the Metal Trades Department
of the A. F. of L. and including
the Paseagoula Metal Trades
Council provides that no strikes
or lockouts shall be engaged in
for the duration of the war.
"A similar pledge has been in
~corporated IN your CounciFs col
lectivc bargaining agreement with
the company. As strike vote is
a threat to violate the Zone Stand
ards and the collective bargain
ing agreement, the Shipbuilding
Sterilization Committee by the
terms of the Chicago amend
ments to the Zone Standards, has
been given responsibility for Sc
curing compliance with the Zone
Standards.
"As chairman of the committee
and on behalf of its labor, man
agement and government mem
bers | am therefore requesting the
Pascagoula Metal Trades Coun-
Gil to give assurance of its inten-
ton to honor its commitments un-
der the Zone Standards by with
drawing its request for the strike
vote.
ut should be noted that the
Smith-C onnallv Act which prohi-
bits strikes IN any wal plant I'M
less such strikes are sanctioned by
an officially conducted vote in
no way relieves any party of the
Zone Standards or to any labor
agreement of no-strike commit
ments made therein.
"A strike whether or not con-
Quoted in accordance with the
Smith, onnally Act would be in
violation of the Zone Standards.
Il am confident that your coun-
Gil upon its reflection will decide
that 1t wishes to maintain its
reputation for respecting agree
ments and the noteworthy pro-
duction records which its MEM
bers have established during the
war.
