Chairman Jacobs explained a
the beginning of the hearing tha
their purpose was to examine tn
case only to determine whether o.
not the economic rights and pri
vileges Of the convicted member
had been abridged, such as theil
right to follow their work in tht
industry.
When informed that only organ
national rights and privileges such
as denial OF right to hold any ma
tional or subordinate local unior
office, or delegateship to conven.
tions or act as wage conferees ir
wage conferences, the chairman
very warmly commended our acts
as to penalties imposed. In this
he was joined by other members
of the committee who made iden-
tical expressions as to the wisdom
and fairness of the sentences met
ed to the convicted members. Chair
man and members of the committee
went on to say that they have been
in somewhat Of a quandry as to
what penalties to provide in reg
ulatory labor laws as disciplin-
airy guide to be applied to men and
women in industries who violate
collective bargaining agreements
and that unions may apply to its
members convicted Of misconduct.
After much thought, they explain
ed, by the best minds in Congress
and men in governmental capacit-
les having to meet the problem,
such as DIR. Liserson who for al
most a lifetime has wrestled with
problems of management and
labor, they concluded that the very
type and kind of disciplinary i'm
positions were just what the
N.B.O.P. had meted out TO those
members who were found guilty OF
misdeeds in our last convention.
These concentrations came more
than once from members of the
examining committee.
The appearance of these parties
before this committee was only for
the purpose of enabling the COM
mittee to check the charges, pro-
cedure and the penalties by way of
bringing all possible information
