Owens voted with the worst

for the Taft-Hartley Act and
later cast his ballot with the
majority who overrode the
Presidents veto of it. The COP

THE NEW bosS-Stacked Nation
al Labor Relations Board and its
general counsel, Robert N. Den
ham, also felt the lash of Ran
dolph's rapid-fire attack.
"Denham has lent himself to
the misunderstanding proposals of
the newspaper publishers" Ran
dolph contended.
I'VE believe he is an enemy
of organized labor and a par
ticularlY vicious enemy of the

Emphasizing his opposition to
the Taft-Hartley law, Randolph
charged that the measure threat
ened to destroy three basic prin-
ciples maintained by the union
for nearly a century: that union
printers never work with non
union printers; that union print
ers do not handle struck work;
and that the union retains juris-
diction over work additionally
performed by printers.
