recommended to the Nationa
Labor Relations Board that it re-
instate Charles T. Douds, wartime
head of the NLRB's second regiona.
office in New York. Mr.. Douds was
discharged in February, 1945, on
charges of incompetency.
The recommendation was based
on six weeks of hearings held last
October before James w. Irwin

who heard 43 witnesses.
Mr.. Douds was twice asked to re-
sign before he was discharged. He
refused to leave voluntarily, assert
ing that ne was not going to yield
to so-called left-Wing elements in
his Office.
The recommendation. signed by
Alfred Klein, chief law officer of the
commission. said that an aggressive
campaign to undermine Mr.. Douds
existed in his Office and that propa-
ganda against him was disseminated
in the office. Mr.. Klein's report said
that there was no evidence to prove
that Mr.. Douds was unfit to hold
his job.
Dissatisfa ction in Office Cited.
There was dissatisfaction in Mr.
Douds' Office before he arrived, and
bad morale that offered fertile soil
for discord.' Mr. Klein's recommen-
dation read The fault was not his
and the primary responsibility lay
elsewhere" Mr.. Douds joined the
office in October, 1912. --

either reinstate Mr.. Douds or ap-
