Can't Take Over Local
Dy NE Assoeiassd Press


NEW YORK, June 19.-The State
Supreme Court has issued an order
temporarily restraining the presiden,
Of the international Association OF
Machinists from suspending the
head Of the New York local.
The decision may have far
reaching effects on relations between
international unions and their
locals.
Justice Ferdinand Pecora ruled
yesterday that efforts Of Harvey "
Brown, machinists' president, to
take over control Of the local was
an invalid seizure OF power"
Mr.. Browns move to suspend
Robert schrank. president Of the
local and Of the New York State
Council Of Machinists. followed q
series Of letters in which Mr.. Brown
accused Mr.. Schrank of apparent
support Of Communist practices and
policies"
The Justice ruled that Mr.. Browns
charges were not borne out and
that Mr.. Brown was attempting to
discipline the local union because
Of its criticism of his action.
Fair criticism Is the right Of
members Of q union as it Is the right
of every citizen" the Justice said.
"A provision Of . union constitution
which would suppress protests Of
members against actions by their
officers, which such members re-
garded q improper or opposed to
their best interests, would be illegal
and unenforceable."
