Trial Examiner Rules Juneau ILWU Unfair

WASHINGTON, (P)-An NLRB trial examiner held yesterday that Harry Bridges CIO long shoremen's union was guilty of an unfair labor practice for defying a national labor relations board order.
 The board had directed the un- ion to stop picketing the Juneau Spruce Corporation, at Juneau, Alaska, in a jurisdictional dispute with the CIO-woodworkers union.
 But the picketing continued, ex- aminer William R. Ringer found, and he said that was an unfair la bor practice under the Taft-Hart- ley act. General counsel Robert N. Denham of the NLRB obtained an injunction against the Bridges' union to stop the picket.ng, last May IA.
 lilC lWO UllOIlS " CI COtllC> IlllS the assignment of lOngshore work by he Juneau corporation. The NLRB ruled last April 1 that the WoodWorkers union was entitled to the work.
 The unfair labor practice which Ringer said Bridges group com mitted arose from two sections of the Taft-Hartley act. One speciti- cally makes a jurisdict.onal dis pute an unfair labor practice and the other fOrbids a InlOn from causing or attempting to cause" an employer to discrim n e against employees on the basis of their union membership or lack of it, Ringer said.
 The examiners ruling becomes a board order unless contested within 20 days.

DISSENTING U. s. RESOURCES

There are definite limits to the American resources which safely invest in foreign aid, declares Sen ator Arthur H. Vandenberg in appeal to the Western European nations to develop greater sefSufficiency and greater cooperation among themselves.
 Mr. Vandenberg stressed the importance of our "Weakened strength as asset common to all the Western democraceS but also pointed out that ndefin ite dissipation of American resources would not be m the interest of the other demOcraCeS, or our own.
 While Mr. Vandenberg did not give figures on the eX- cess of exports from this country imports from other countries, he plainly had these figures in mind For number of years the United States has been ship ping valuable material resources to other countries without receiving in return offsettng resources from other countries If this process keeps up long enough the United States will inevitably exhaust it's resources
 It would be better for the United States, in exchange for it's material resources, to get something tangible from other countries The fact that they the bal and will pay it if they is not enough No nation can build anything in peace or in war; on the unpaid balances of it's friends Material the back bone of the economic power of any country and mis power is the backbone of military strength

THE DISABLED VETERANS RACKET

Harry D. Mitchell, chairman of the U. s. Civil Serv- ice Commission is hot and bothered about the defin ton of disabled veteran" which gives to extra points in connection with civil service examinations
 Mr. Mitchell does not object to the extra points going to veteran injured in the war; but he is not enthus iastc the disabled rating that goes to a man be- cause of "service-connected" disability, which may be nothing more than "flatfoot."
 AS everybody knows, after the first World War, and presumably after the second many veterans got into service only to be discharged later because of some phy sca disability not connected with uries received in the service These individuals have been rated dis abed and given the preference that Congress n tended to grant to those who injured in action
 What Mr. Mitchell objects to- and what every citizen should object to- is seen in this example cited by him certified by his draft board of physically able and inducted into the first World War. Three weeks later, he discharged because of bad feet The sumption shat his short army flattened his arches and the got the official label dsabled
 AS result of this disability" the flatfooted veter- an, in connection with civil service ratings, goes to the head of the obeligiby roster above combat soldier with higher examination rating who may have been wounded in action but never disabled

 It is about time to end such farce. We note that Judge Medina becoming tired of the obstructionis tactics of attorneys defending the accused We suspect that when the trial is over he will send some of them to jail for contempt of court Nevertheless it is absurd permit the trial to for than seven months and to clutter up the record with all the argumentatve junk that has been presented evidence by the accused and their attorneys.

The trial of eleven members of the national board of the Communist party in this country has lasted for twenty weeks and is not yet concluded It is df- cult to imagine any that requires this much time
 The tactics of the defendants and their attorneys have been almost without precedent in American courts The judge has been practically ignored by attorneys, there have been loud comments before the jury by the de- fendants and their counsel and frequent protests and denunciations of the jurst.
 Judge Harold R. Medina has exhibited rare patience under great provocaton. The be said we pre- sume for the jurors All of which lends support to the belief that the defendants have been given than

New Canadian
 Highway Rapidly Nears Completion

VICTORIA, B. C. (P)-The John Hart Highway, which will cut off 500 highway miles between Seat tie and Fairbanks, Alaska, is rap idly reaching completion and is traverSible except for "A miles, province officials said today.
 When completed next summer, it will obviate the long detour via Edmonton for trucks running be- tween Seattle and Alaska. It will provide an alternate shorter route via Vancouver, Chilliwack, Clin- ton, Williams Lake and Prince George to Dawson Creek on the Alaska Military Highway.
 The John Hart Highway, named after eX-Premier John Hart, runs from Prince George north through Summit Lake up the Rocky Noun tain Trench to Fort Mcleod, and east through Pine Pass to Dawson Creek. Between Prince George and Vancouver trucks and private automobiles would use the Cariboo Highway which also is being wide ly improved.
 Engineers report that the high way has been completed 57 miles west of Dawson Creek, and from Prince George to Summit Lake. From Milepost 68 to 94 it is still under construction, and will be completed by December 31.
 The only section of the highway not yet underconstruction lies be- tween milepost A and 68.
 The road is a 30-foot gravel highway suitable for heavy truck ing but necessarily at moderate speeds. It will save at least two full days for Seattle trucks nov ing to and from Alaska's interior.
 At the moment the provincially- owned Pacific Great Eastern Rail way holds an exclusive franchise for trucking and passenger-carTy- ing by bus over the highway when completed. Whether this will pre- vent American truckers from us- ing it without transshipping has not yet been determined.
