Kirchner Appointment
Prompts Resignation
OF Council Member

Appointment of J. Fred KirChner,
labor inspector for Northern Vlr-
ginia. as director of the State ap-
premiership training program has
resulted in the resignation of one of
the three industry representatives
on Virginia's Apprenticeship Coun-
Gil, il was learned today.
In addition. the two other industry
representatives have attacked the
appointment as being made without
their approval.
Mr.. Kirchner. former president of
the Alexandria Central Labor Union
was named to apprenticeship train
ing post Wednesday by John Hop
kins Hall, jr.. State commissioner of
labor and industry and an ex-offcio
member of the Apprenticeship
Council
The council is composed of three
industry and three labor representa-
tives with Mr.. Hall and DR.. B. H:
Van Oor, State director of vocational
education, as ex offlcio members.
Called administrative Matter"
While he claimed the appointment
was approved" by majority OF
the council, Mr.. Hall contended the
naming of a program director is
an administrative matter" and that
he is not legally bound to follow
the councils advice in such actions.
L. Gordon Sheain, president OF
the American Can Co, in Richmond
and a member of the State Appren-
ticeship Council for nearly 10 years,
disclosed that his abrupt resigna-
ton from the council was in protest
against Mr.. Kirchner's appointment,
the Associated Press reported.
In my opinion" Mr.. Sheain as
serted. Mr.. Kirchner is not quail
flied for the job and do not be-
lieve his employment as director is
in accordance with the wishes Of the
council as whole"
G.. Guy Via of Newport News.
another industry member, said he
had neither approved nor recon-
mended' Mr.. Kirchner.
"Amazed" at Choice.
II was absolutely amazed when
announcement was made OF his
appointment" Mr. Via said
Mr.. Hall said he believed "the
future will justify my honest con-
viction that fMr. Kirchner) Is we'll
qualified for the position
In a letter to Gov. Tuck, he said,
Mr.. Kirchner knows the policies
and procedures" of the State De-
partment of Labor and Industry,
and is well thought of in his ter
ritory' The commissioner said Mr..
Kirchner would spend much Of his
time as director in public relations
work, "a field in which he has
proved his ability"
Kirchner Was Assaulted.
Mr.. Kirchner first appeared in
the news in January 1916, after
fracas at a meeting of the Alexand-
ria Central Labor Union, American
Federation of Labor affiliate, which
resulted in the conviction of two
other labor leaders on assault
charges.
James D. Hardman, then presi-
dent of the union, and J. C. Turner,
acting secretary. were fined S400
each for assaulting Mr.. Kirchner,
who suffered a broken nose.
Mr.. Hardman, who resigned last
May as president of the Alexandria
union when he was transferred to
New York by the Bureau of Aero
nautics, is currently under investi-
cation by the Civil Service Com
mission for alleged Hatch Act
violations. He is accused of elec-
tioneering in Alexandria in 1914.
