NLRB HEARING I5DEvEL0pING. NEW EVIDENCE.
Both Sides Present Wit. nesses in Local Juris-
 dittiondl Dispute

Because of technicalities regard ing the sections of the Taft Hartley Act under which the present hear ing of the case of the Juneau Spruce Corporation auainst the International Longshoremens and Warehousemen's Union is being conducted. Examiner Melton Boyd of the 18th Regional Office, Ma tional Labor Relations Board, ques- toned the Power of the Hearing Officer or the NLRB to issue an injunction against the ILWU, at the proceedings in the Senate Chamber Wednesday afternoon.
 This was after Attorney James Rogers for the Juneau Spruce Cor poration pictured the great finan- cial loss to the company and the community as a result of the mill closure between April 3 and July 19, and the possibility of further financial damage should the mill he forced to close down because of it's restricted operation due to the ILW picket line.
 The picket line, result of the Juneau Spruce Corporation assign ing it's general employees, members of International Woodworkers of America, Local M-27l, under con- tract of November 3, l947, loading duties on mill-owned barges and boats, make it impossible to handle lumber that must be delivered by water, it was brought out in the hearing by testjyHany Qf .Gai1t lsl2dr wig C. Baggen. skipper of the company tug boat Santrina, and by Freeman Shultz, executive vice. president and general manager of the Juneau Spruce.
 End Nonsense, Banfield Asks
 Tt is time for the general coun- sel of the NLRB to step in and put an end to this nonsense said Juneau Spruce attorney Norman Banfield, after calling attention to the manner in which Juneau's small town economy had been af- fected by the mill closure: 200 men had been thrown out of work; small loggers who were dependent upon sales to the mill had lost their Investments large losses were incurred because the company could not dispose of lumber be- cause the picket line stopped shipments by ocean going vessels.
 Whether testimony has to do with one section of the Act or another, Banfield and Rogers urged its inn portance and action by the gen. eral counsel.
 Boyd's Statement
 Examiner Boyd followed with this observation, that do not feel it my duty to assume to defend the Board or the general counsel in this case, but my part of the inquiry is limited. I am here as hearing officer to see that testi- mony is properly developed. I do not want it to. appear that the Board is not considering he so- cial and economic impact of the situation on the community"
 Capt. Baggen told of the trip of the Santrina to Prince Rupert late in August with load of lum- Der, which it was intended to un-
