Printers Head o'Urge
Local 10 Back Charge
.0f Unfair Practices

Jesse B. Manback, president of
Columbia typographical Union, said
today he would recommend to the
union membership next Sunday that
they approve filing Of unfair labor
practice charges against the Graphic
Arts Association.
Representative of 80 commercial
print shops with whom the union
is deadlocked in a wage dispute. the
association today formally informed
Mr.. hanback, 1t would not accept
his invitation for an informal con-
ference" looking to possible basis
for settlement.
The association said 1t insisted on
conducting "all its negotiations on
a formal basis In keeping with re-
quirements Of the National Labor
Relations Board"
The closed shop division of the
association said 1t insisted on con-
tinuing negotiations with an Inter-
national Typographical Union rep
resentative, as provided for by ITU
law. Last week the union voted
down q proposal for settlement
formulated by the association and
Elmer Brown, ITU second vice presi-
dent.
Contract With Local Union.
1.-THE Graphic Arts Association
does not hold a contract with the
ITU," Mr.. Manbeck said. "Its con-
tract is with the Columbia Typo
graphical Union, and when the GAA
refuses to bargain with representa-
tive of the unions choosing, 1t Is
violating the Wagner Act"
Mr.. Manbeck said he would rec
ommend at a membership meeting
that unfair labor practice charges
be fled with the NLRB. He charged
the association with making q play
on the phrase informal conference
which he had suggested in letter
asking all employers to meet with
him in a negotietic-s meetin~.
On the other hand, an association
spokesman said Mr.. Manbeck had
Intentionally used the word "in-
formal" with full realization that ii
is, mandatory under ITU law for
negotiations to be resumed with an
ITU representative.
ITU Superseded Local Committee.
Mr., Manbeck said the TTU had
not entered the picture as q negotia-
tor at the unions request, but be-
cause it automatically superseded the
local scale committee in authority
after the local had requested strike
sanction.
He said ITU law provided that no
ITU representative would take
charge Of a local union unless spe-
cifically requested by the locals
membership. In the event a union
requests strike sanction from the
ITU Executive Council, it is custom
ary for the international to send a
representative merely to investigate
the situation, he added.
Chances for an early settlement
in the drawn-out controversy ap-
peared more remote. Woodruff Ran
dolph, ITU president, is attending
the AFL convention In Chicago, and
it may be a week or 10 days before
he responds to a telegram annoui1c-
ing 3 continued deadlock here. It
is expected he will later send q rep
resentative,. or personally assume
authority IN the squabbls.

Group Selected
ToPick Sitefor
| Hospital Center
4. Advisory Committee
For Project Faces
Many Problems

A committee has been formed to
help the Government plan and
select a site for Washington's pro-
posed 1,5o0-bed hospital center, 1t
was learned today.
AtSthe same time 1t was learned
that from six to eight sites for the
center are under study and that
funds Will be asked in the 1913
budget to buy d site and prepare
plans.
F The center was authorized by Con-
eresss last session to cost $4,000, 900
to $20e0o, 900. This sum would be
only part of a total Of $35, ,000, 900
authorized to build the center and
modernize existing Washington hos
tpdtals. -
A second committee, The Star was
told, probably will be formed with
in two weeks to give advice on how
the money should be spent to mod
ernie hospitals which have refused
to become part IN the center.
! Must Decide on Site.
! The Hospital Center Committee,
which was formed at the request, of
Federal Works Administrator Philip
B. Fleming, has a membership as
follows:
Chief Justice Bolitha ]. Laws of
the United States District Court,
George A. Garrett, representing
Emergency Hospital; Henry Blair,
representing Episcopal Hospital;
William r. Castle, representing Gar
field Hospital; District Health Officer
George C. Rutland, DR.. B. N. Crab
tree, representing the United States
Public Health Service, and Robert
M. Meehan, representive Of the
public.
Questions which the committee is
to answer for Gen. Fleming shape
hp like this. The Star was told:
I. Where should the center go?
/ 2. win it attempt to combine
actual operation of the three hos
pitfalls participating or simply pro-
vide separate units under one roof?
8. Can the emergency work of
Emergency Hospital be left out OF
the new setup, thereby allowing a
location somewhat removed from
the center of the city?
These and many more Of q de-
tailed nature will receive the atten-
ton of the committee.
At Least 20 Acres Needed.
For one thing, it has been made
clear to the committee that an
absolute minimum of 20 acres will
be needed for a 1,500-bed hospital.
This is due largely to District build
ing regulations, which prevent high
buildings. Ofiicials feel at least 80
acres should be bought.
As one Government source put it
today, such a hospital will be three
and one-half times the size of the
new George Washington University
Hospital. as -. 49,.
This throws tremendous OBJ
stacles in the road OF those de-
signing the center.
For instance, a low building
would cover a lot of ground. How
could it be arranged SO that pa
tients, doctors and nurses would
not have to 60 long distances to
laboratories, operating rooms, kitch-
ems and other facilities?
Then there is the question OF
providing enough air and sunlight
for patients without spreading the
building all over the lot.
One official said these problems
ordinarily would be solved by high
buildings In other cities.
Government sources, as usual,
said they could not make public
what sites were being considered
for the center. 1t was pointed out,
however, there are few pieces of
property large enough to handle
such o large hospital.

War Orphan S Story
Told by Papertrooper
OF Brent-Dent Unit

Four more schools, Brent, Dent,
Eaton and Oyster, have joined the
Salvage Orphan phase of The
Evening Star-PTA Salvage Cam
paign, bringing to % the number of
schools which have undertaken the
support of the child victim of the
war in Europe.
The following letter, written by
one of the pupils from the Brent
Dent group explains about their fos-
ter brother:
The Brent-Dent Public School
has adopted Bertus Van T. Hoff, who
has suffered from the Nazis. He
was born in Schiedam, Holland, Sep
tember 9, 1885. His father, a, hard
working carpenter, was taken by the
Nazis to Germany to be a slave
lahorer. In Germany the father was
beaten, and was worked so hard that
he lost his health.
Meanwhile, Bertus' mother and
sister were living on tulip bulbs and
sugar beets which they found in
the fields. After We day the boy
was taken to England with a group
of children to be clothed, rested
and fed. Then he was sent back
to Holland where he found his IA
ther was back-a beaten, i'll man
who was in no condition to work.
THE foster parents plan for War
Children, Inc. is making it possible
for schools, churches, colleges and
other organizations to adopt war
children. The Brent-Dent children
are giving up some candies, cakes
and movies to help the campaign
We are collecting newspapers, rags
and salvage to raise money for Ber-
tus. We want him to live and be
like any other child and to have
his chance. We are going to send
him a birthday box and gifts for
Christmas. I hope he will write to
us. We would like to have him on
our baseball team. He probably
could make the boy patrol"

Red Commentator Attacks
u. S.-British Position

MOSCOW, May 27 (P).-Pravda
said yesterday that the American
and British position favoring re-
tention of the Iranian question on
the agenda of the United Nations
Security Council was distinguished
by complete disrespect for infor-
nation sent by Iranian Prime Min
lister Ahmed Qavam"
Not having any kind of posi-
bility to deny the official statement
of the Iranian government, they be-
gan merely verbally to subject it
to doubt" Pravda's international
commentator Reviewer" said.
He also accused some members
OF the Council of undermining the
United Nations organization.
The English representative found
1t even possible to place under doubt
the work of the commission sent by
the Iranian government to Azer-
baijan," the article said. The COM
mission went to Azerbaijan to de-
termine whether Soviet troops had
been withdrawn.
The commentator accused the
British and American representa-
tatives on the Council of employing
flibuStering tactics similar to those
used in the United States Senate.

spokesman at Altoona, Pa, said after
reports made it appear that virtually
all $4,000 miners in the Central
Pennsylvania soft coal fields were
staying of the job.
An incomplete survey, but cover
ing major coal centers, show none
of West Virginia's 785 commercial
shafts working and idleness for 104,-
90 miners. Few scattered strip mines
were producing.
A spokesman for United States
Steel Corp. reported that all IS of
its mines in the Pennsylvania soft
coal fields were idle.
The mines, which produce fuel
for the steel mills, employ approx
mately 1000 men, most of whom
did not return to work during the
tWo-Week truce in the coal strike.
The truce expired Saturday mid
night.
Only a few scattered small opera
tions were reported open despite
governmental seizure of the pits.
Mr.. Lewis had not so much as a
word for Mr.. Truman's demand that
Congress give him authority to order
the arrest of recalcitrant strike
leaders and draft their followers
into the Army. ------------ -.---.-.. --
Were his men going to stick to
the pits? The only response was a
completely noncommittal smile
Hence there was nothing on the
public record to keep the miners
at work beyond the largely ineffec-
tive plea of the two men running
the soft coal pits for the Govern
ment.
But the Army provided one hint
that some coal might be mined
strike or no. The War Department
announced that a detachment of
$50 troops had been moved to Mad
isonville, KY, "for the protection of
employees of the Pond River
coal mine in Hopkins County,"
Protection Requested.
There was no amplification be-
yond the fact that the request for
protection had come from the Fed
eral Coal Mines Administration

seized the pits last Wednesday.
An armored unit was in the de-
tachment sent from Camp Camp

Local union leaders were generally
reluctant to comment on the miners

the men wanted direct word from
