Denham 10 Offer Plan
For Settling Builders
Jurisdiction Disputes

A plan for settlement by the
building industry itself of jurisdic-
tional disputes arising among unions
on construction jobs will be an
nounced tomorrow by Robert N
Denham, general counsel of the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board.
Mr.. Denham will make the an
nouncement in an address before
the Associated General Contractors
of America, now meeting in Dallas,
Tex
The plan has been under discus
sion for some time by the con-
tractors and the numerous unions
which form the AFL Building and
Construction Trades Department.
Speedier Settlements Sought.
Two weeks ago, just before the
meeting of the AFL Executive
Council, Mr.. Denham met in Miami
with representatives of both con-
tractors and the unions to discuss
means of settling jurisdictional dis
putes, arguments between unions
over which will perform specific
jobs, without coming to the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board.
The Taft Hartley Act bars strikes
over work jurisdiction and provides
for settlement of such disputes by
the NLRB. However, it was felt
that some other way of handling
the disputes must be found, since
their occurrence was so numerous
the board would be showed under"
by the work.
The plan discussed in Miami, and
approved generally by AFL build
ing trades unions, provides for the
creation of joint settlement board
of representatives. OF contractors
and labor. There would be q ma
tional board and regional boards
which would handle the bulk of the
cases.
Would be Financed Jointly.
Unions of the building trades and
the contractors would jointly f1n-
ance the operations. There would
be no direct connection with the
Government, but the NLRB would
recognize the work of the boards.
Disputes which could not be set
tied within the industry, Of course,
would be submitted to the NLRB
for adjudication. Strikes would be
barred until settlement could be
found.
The national dispute settling
board, it is understood, would bear
somewhat the same relationship to
NLRB as the Wage Adjustment
Board did in wartime to the Ma
tional War Labor Board. The WAB
was a separate agency established
to set wages in the building field.
However, the WAB was supported
by the Government and its decisions
were subject to War Labor Board
review.
The Nations contractors are con-
sidering the plan at their Dallas
meeting. If they approve it, labor
sources said. final details will be
worked out jointly and the idea put
into effect.
A year ago President Truman an
nounced with considerable fanfare
a plan for the settlement of juris-
dictional disputes in the construc-
ton industry. 1t, too, was a plan
worked out jointly by employers
and unions, but it proved Intellectual
and never actually was used.

Commissioner Bert Bell Of the

make the decision whether Harry

back, plays in the All-Star game

Gilmer or the Redskins.
Under terms of the contract
between the Chicago Tribune

agrees to pay q player $3.50 plus
expenses to appear in the game,
he must play or be barred from
all preseason games with his pro
team.
Apparently neither Gilmer nor

Rejection Of Ah-Star
Bid May Ban Gi|mer

By the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Aug. 5.-Failure to
accept bid for play in the All-Star
football game may bar Harry Gill
mer, former University of Alabama
back now with the Washington Red
skins, from playing in any Of the
Redskins exhibition games this fall.
An official of Chicago Tribune
Charities, Inc, sponsor OF the an
nual grid classic, asserts that Gilmer
has not accepted an invitation to
play with the College All-Stars
against the Chicago Cardinals,
A sellout crowd of more than
100000 will witness the game in
Soldier Field the night of August 20,
The Tribune Charities official said
his group has contract with the
National Football League which
touches on Gilmers refusal to
participate.
The contract provides that any
National League player who refuses
to play in an All-Star game may be
banned from all exhibition games
his pro team plays during the
season.
Gilmer, whom the Associated
Press picked for its second ALL
America team in 1947, is training
with the Redskins at Los Angeles.
In Philadelphia, Bert Bell, Ma

sioner, said he had received a
letter from Arch Ward, Chicago

II am writing Ward to forward

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 5-"You the
coach here?" asked the big guy, put
ting down his soiled canvas bag.
The trim first lieutenant he ad-
dressed eyed the newcomer solemn
ly, noted the silver bars on his
shoulders, and nodded. We'll, are
you gonna be one of those blankety-
blank coaches who play favorites, or
are you gonna let the best man play
on this team
That was Tom Mont's first meet
| ing. with Jim PEBBLES. They were
Army officers in Germany and Jim
was reporting for duty with the all
star team which Mont had been
named to coach and which waded
undefeated through all opposition,
and Mont still gets a chuckle out OF
the memory of it.
Jim was tired, dirty and out OF
sorts that night" Mont told us, land
after a good nights sleep and a
shower he felt pretty bad about the
way he spoke to me. AS 1t turned
out he would have played anyway,
because he was our best tackle and
one of my favorites."
Battle to Make Team.
Jim and Tom, roommates at the
Redskin training camp, are carrying
on a little private warfare now, try
ing to fight their way onto a squad
that has an abundance of ends,
where PEBBLES wants to play, and
quarterbacks. which Is Mont's reg
ular spot. Both look to be sure VIM
ners.a - EYS
Mont was called one OF the best
quartefbacks Clark Shaughnessy
ever coached when the latter was
at Maryland several years ago and
Shaughnessy, who paid a flying visit
to camp today, still stands by that
decision. Wilbur Moore likes Toms
work too, and Moore gives it to you
straight with no ifs, ands or maybes.
playing in the All-Star game (at
Chicago last year hurt Mont" Will
bur said. IF we'd had him from
the start of training he would have
played a lot of football for us. That
elbow injury set him back month
and then we had to let him go to
Wilmington for a month. That was
bad. But this year he's ahead of
the game. Tom worked out at Mary
land during the summer and is in
great shape. l expect him to play
a lot for us this year"
But, unless Sammy Baugh's legs
crack or Harry Gilmer and Tom
Farmer are injured, Mont seems
destined to play halfback this sea-
son. That's the current lineup, al
| though some observers consider
Mont the squads best all-around
quarterback next to Baugh. Gilmer
is not being rushed, but is working
his way into the scheme of things
easily, taking his regular turn call
ing signals and throwing the ball.
He throws a hard pass, using a
wrist motion that slants the ball
downward. He pitches far and wide
and seems fairly accurate, but the
No. ! tosser at this early stage is
still the thin man from Texas, with
Mont right on his heels.
PEBBLES Is Rarity.
PEBBLES ability to play offense as
we'll as defense, which seems to be a
rarity in pro ranks anymore, is in
his favor. Edwards thinks Jim would
team nicely with Bones Taylor at
the ends.
I'VE could throw to Bones" the
coach explained, land use Jim to
