(Continued from Page One) UNION GRIEVANCES

The U. s. circuit court of Chicago, in reversing the NLRB, decided that where there is no contract an em- ployer need not handle grievances through the certified union. The NLRB had decided that grievance presentation is part of bargaining and that the employers duty to bar gain with the union exists as soon as the union is certified.
 The court reversed to NLRB on another point as we'll. The com pany had discharged union official who had refused, if unaccompanied by the union committee, to discuss with the company official matter which had already been discussed with the committee.
 It seems to us that the court is wrong in both these instances and we hope the NLRB appeals the case.
 Incidentally, the court here makes the same kind of mistake as several other courts have made in discuss ing evidence. It said there was no substantial evidence of violation of the Wagner act. There is a big distinction between substantial evil dence and evidence of a substantial violation. The court here confused the two. It is our opinion that there was both in this case (Ross Gear & Tool Co.,, Jan. 2, 1947).

stepped out in his first race indoors, not only beating Ray but setting a then new indoor mark-4.12. Slow? Not if you knew the track in the old Madison Square Garden. It wasn't much better than one on which I saw the great Mel Sheppard run. That is, Sheppard ran until he suddenly crashed clean through it and disap- peared from view.
 It is question whether high pres sure indoor track campaigns inn prove our athletes form and stam- ina. The pace is terrific. The boys lay them down and pick them up week after week without letup al- most up to springtime. Then comes the outdoor grind. That too much running tends to shorten track ca reers goes without saying. There are plenty of individual exceptions, yes. Don't write and tell me Joie Ray was good for almost 20 years. l know it. And that our Olympic successes prove our whole system is sound stuff.
 One year even our brasshats of the AAU were doubtful. That was 1924, the Amsterdam O1ympics. We sent over a small army of grand athletes. We "won" the meet on points-yet won only one race on the fat-the 400 meters.
 The semiofficial explanation was, The boys were tired out from the winter indoor campaign" Maybe so. Take it easy next winter. l948 is Olympic year.

AS WE SEE IT
SCOPE OF BARGAINING

A trial examiner for the NLRB has ruled that company's refusal to bargain with the certified union about its pension plan is a violation of the Wagner act. The examiner stated that while the company was not compelled to agree with the union, it was required to consult with the union and explore in good faith the possibility of reaching agreement so that the matter may be removed as far as possible as a cause of industrial strife (Inland Steel Co.,, Jan. 8, 1947).

 SYNTHETIC2
 Indoor track is great entertain. ment. It is also a synthetic form of competition. No two tracks are the same in quality and resilency, There are fast tracks, slow, and in between. The international commit. tee of track pundits who pass on records frown on indoor marks, Outdoor dirt is more deliable in. dex to spiked shoe speed.
 Best example of that is Long John Woodruff, Negro track star. He is about to make comeback after five years absence from competition Woodruff is a long legged giant. He is not built for indoor running. Or the turns of the dinl<y tracks he acts like Charlie Chaplin skidding for bal ance. This lost time and space he makes up on the straightaways. Yet several years ago great track judge told me Woodruff, properly handled outdoors, looked like the one mar with a 4-hat mile in him.
 EUROPE NO LIKE The indoor track is an American irl- vention. Europe doesn't go for it Finland, famous for athletes, has never had one. Yet celebrated foreign run ners have been here in droves to try it. They thought it just matter of a few warmups to get the hang of the boards. They were mistaken-except for Paavo Nurmi It requires time and competition. There are competi tive tricks in taking curves and banks unknown to the beginner on boards.
 saw Guillomet, the Frenchman fresh from Olympic world conquests fail miserably on the U. s. boards. He could scarcely run at all. Afterward he said the boards made his legs ache, that his spikes seemed anchored tc the track. Gunder Haag, Swedish wonder, showed us plenty outdoors beating our best. He, too, was bust indoors.
 Nurmi was the exception. From the first he ran on boards to the manner born. At that time we had very great miller, though nearing the end of his long tether. He was chesty Joie Ray. Nurmi was the new marvel of European track, an Olympic wOrld-beater.
 When Ray heard Nurmi was com ing he showed a curious respect Guess he can run, all right-bu those marks they say he's made, don't believe he's that good" wa. Rays advance comment. He was talk ing of indoor performances of th' Finn. Anyhow, I'll bet I take him He's no indoor runner, is he? I'll bea him on the corners"

PORTAL PAY

There is distinction between walking time and preparatory time in many pending portal suits and the courts may apply this distinc- ton in some of the pending suits, particularly in connection with the Supreme Courts statement that in- significant amounts of time may be disregarded.
 Many people consider work preparation akin to actual prOduc- ton while walking time within the plant grounds is more like a trip from home to work. Hence the theory about insignificant periods of time may be held to exclude only the smallest intervals of prepara- tory time and yet exclude much longer walking periods.

Special Czech
 Courts Tough

PRAGUE-tR-In a year and a half the extraordinary peoples courts which Czechoslovakia set up to deal in hard handed retribution for crimes of collaboration during the Nazi occupation have proved their toughness.
 Executed by order of the 24 spec ial courts in Bohemia and Mora va were 713 persons; and life sen tences went to TAI. Of these two classes slightly more than half were Czechs listed as of German nationality. The rest were of pure Czech nationality.
 Besides these, jail sentences total ing 295,334 years-averaging slight " more than ten years each-were given to 19,889 others. h Slovakia, from which no fi- gures have yet been compiled, the courts continue in operation unt1 the end og this year.

 S0UThEAST CITIES

Residents of Skagway, Haines and Sitka were out in full force to greet the steamer Alaska as that ship this week began the first American scheduled operation to those cities since the war, William Semar, Gen eral MaAager of the Northland Transportation Company, reported.
 The Alaska is scheduled to leave Seattle on the Southeast Alaska triangle run every two weeks.
 Semar said that the ship is book ed with all of the round-trip tourist passengers it can handle for the rest ot the season, but that space is being held to take care of Alaskans in interport service. The Northland company's general manager was ac- companied on the Alaska's first trip in the new service by Mrs. Semar and daughter, Virginia.
 Many Juneau residents made the triangle run trip from Juneau to Haines, Skagway, Sitka and back, including MT. and Mrs. R. E. Rob- ertson and Mir. and Mrs. Henry Green and son, Denny. Green is Juneau agent for the company.
