NLRB Hears Final Argument On
Mine Supervisors Union Riqhfs

Washington (FP)-The ticklish
legal problem of the right of sup
ervisory employees to organize and
bargain collectively drew one step
closer to solution Nov. z as the
NLRB heard final argument of the
United Mine Workers and the
Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp.
The case involves the Clerical
Technical & Supervisory Union, an
affiliate of the UNIV, and it's ef-
forts to bargain with J & L for
assistant mine foremen and crew
bosses in the captive Vesta-Shan-
nopin mine at Pittsburgh, Pa.
Since the union won an NLRB
election last spring for representa-
ton of supervisory workers at the
mine, the company has refused to
bargain. Early in October a trial
examiner had heard the case and
upheld the union complaint.
Company counsel contended that
the supervisory workers may be
employees under the Wagner act,
hence entitled to an organization

he said, had asked him to help in
G ting experienced American
union leaders to come to Japan to
set up unions on a business-like
basis, with dues collections, collec-
tive bargaining contracts and gen.
eral union discipline.
A major need in Japan on which
Starr said both he and Macarthur
agreed was a government labor
department. Up to now conscrip-
tion of labor for factories was in
the hands of the police, and work
ers' welfare still is not a govern
ment function, he said. Govern
ment officials should be sent to
Japan to advise on this, said Starr,
and American employees should
visit Japan to instruct Japanese
factory owners in both industrial
relations and production manage
ment.

Squoffers Take
Over In Chicago

Chicago (FP)-The first major
squatters' movement in the U. S.
hit a veterans housing project
here when 60 ex-GI's and their
families took over unrented apart
ments in the yet unfinished 1885,
unit Airport Homes and announc-
ed their intention Of staying "un-
til we're thrown out"
The GI's, who included several
Purple Heart holders and at least
one Presidential Citation wearer,
said they applied to the Chicago
Housing Authority a year ago for
permission to rent the apartments
but that no action had been forth
coming.
Over 125 units of the project
have been completed and rented to
veterans but other finished apart
ments have been standing vacant.

to represent them, but that they
should not be in the same union
with the rank and file miners. This
would "entangle their loyalties,"
and already there was evidence
that union mine bosses were not re-
porting violations of safety rules
by miners, he said. He pleaded
with the NLRB to rule in the pub
lie interest against the right of
mine bosses to join the UNIV.
Union Attorney Samuel Krims-
ly attacked the contention that
safety conditions suffered when
bosses were organized. The union
wanted to promote safety in the
mines, not sabotage it. He remind
ed the NLRB that the UNIV cam
paign for a federal mine safety
law had over the years been
fought by the companies.
In Pennsylvania today, it was
brought out, safety inspection is

U. S. veers Right
As COP Captures
House And Senufe

Washington (FP) = Reaction
swung into the saddle with ven.
geance Nov. S as the Republican
party rode Americas swift veer
to the right in choosing the new,
80th Congress.
With every signal pointing
sharply to enactment of the most
drastic type Of anti-labor legisla-
tion in January, the COP took con-
troll Of both the House and Senate
as liberal Democrats fell by the
wayside across the nation.
Comparatively few candidates
favored by labor survived the
sweeping Taft Dewey Landslide.
These included Representatives
Helen Gahagan Douglas, John
Dingell, Vito Marcantonio, Adam
c.. Powell, w. L. Dawson, A. j..
SABBATH, A. J. Resa, R. ]. Madden,
Louis Ludlow, e. H. Hedrick, Sen
ators Harley Kilgore, and Joseph
C. O'Mahoney.
Crushed by overwhelming pro-
test vote were such pro-labor con-
gressmen or Representatives Jerry
Voorhis, Hugh DeLacy, John Cof-
fee, Frank Hook, Herman P. Kop-
pleman, Charles R. Savage, Emily
Taft Douglas, and Andrew j. Bic
miller, and Senator Joseph Guffey.
Some solance can be found in the
defeat of tory Representative An
drew j. May and the fact that Re-
publican control of committees will
replace many reactionary southern
polltax Democrats with COP men,
bers whose views may be slightly
better on many issues.
But the election Of Representa-
tive Richard j. We1ch to the chair
Inanship of the House labor COM,

speed anti-labor bills to the floor.

Washington, (FP)-Signs grew

Top Man On All
Labor Questions

Washington (FP) - When the
80th Congress convenes in Janu-
ary, Senator Joseph Ball will be
the top man in that body on all
labor questions.
Ball reached Washington Nov.
8 to prepare his program and an
nounced that he has double
barreled shot for American unions.
First off, Ball expects quick
passage of the Case anti-labor bill
the measure that was so bad
President Truman vetoed it. Ball
| thinks he can get it through the
Senate without the fornality of
holding hearings.
Following up on that, the Min
nesota senator proposes to ban the
closed shop.
In an interview at his office,
Ball described the Case bill as a
relatively easy measure to pass,
but pointed to the outlawing of the
closed shop as the primary COP
objective. He wants ts-,-har any
form of agreement or contract in
which membership in labor union
will be prerequisite to employment.
Ball put it this way: "There
have been a lot of bills talked
about which would outlaw specific
abuses of unions, but most Of them
just chip away at the edges. The
main bulwark protecting unions in
their abuse of power is the closed
shop.
"If we abolish the closed shop"
he explained smilingly, "other
abuses within labor unions will be
abolished by the rank and file or
union members themselves"
