was in charge Of the program and
presented the speakers to the club.
Morris discussed the building needs
of the hospital and stressed the fact
that the hospital was, and has been
for long period of time, in an over
crowded condition, and that in order
to take care of the hospital needs
of the people of this community,
that it had become necessary to
build an addition to the hospital, en-
larging it from a thirty-seven bed
hospital to sixty-two bed hospital.
He pointed out that it was entirely
possible that some help would be
forthcoming from the Medical Care
Association, which issues funds re-
ceived from both the State and Fed
eral governments. He stated that
the Board of Trustees was confront
ed with the problem of deciding
whether or not an addition should be
made to the hospital at it's present
location, or if new hospital build
ing should be built on a site else

money involved, it appeared from
the remarks made by Morris, that
the Trustees would probably follow
the plan of enlargement, rather than
rebuilding.
Proctor also discussed some of the
problems involved in the building
program facing those interested in
the Marion General Hospital. 1t was
pointed. out that a number of condi-
tions would have to be met if the
Medical Care Association is to CO.
operate with the Board of Trustees
of the hospital, and that this joint

would entail some delays and adjust

|NLRB Rules Firms
Can Shun Unions Who
LACK Non-Red 0aths
By the Assoeiotsd Press

The National Labor Relations
Board yesterday ruled that en-
ployers don't have to bargain with
a union whose officers have not
filed non-Communist oaths.
It held unanimously that this
does not give an employer a de-
fense against charges Of inter-
fering with rights Of individual
employees under the Taft-Hartley
Act.
NLRB sources said the ruling
merely spelled out what was gen.
orally understood to be the in
tent Of the Taft-Hartley Act.
The nom Communist affdavits
are required under the act from
all local and international union
officers in order to give the union
any standing before the NLRB.
Without such standing, the
union Is powerless to inforce its
bargaining rights or complain
against any acts of an employer,
the board has ruled.
The order may be felt particu-
larly by local branches Of unions
which fall behind in compliance
as officers change.
A number of major union lead
ers still are refusing to file the
oaths.
The boards decision came in a
case involving the Andrews Co.
at Spartanburg, S. c., a ball-bear-
ing manufacturer, and the AFL.
At the time the case arose, in
October, 1947, the AFL's top off,
GERS were trying to make up their
minds whether to sign the affi-
davits. John L. Lewis was fight
ing against it. He lost that strug-
gle and took his miners out of
the AFL.
But in the meantime the An
drews Co. refused to bargain with
a local being organized directly
under the national officers of
the AFL. The board ruled, 3 to q
that the employer didn't have to
bargain with the union. Chair
man Paul M. Herzog and John M
Houston dissented, saying that the
employer should have given nom
compliance as the reason for ig-
noring the union. The employer
raised that issue only 16 months
later when the case was heard be-
fore q trial examiner.

Racial Discrimination
Suit Against Airport
To Be Tried Tomorrow

A $4,000 damage suit brought
by a Washington colored woman
who claims she was refused serv-
ice at the Washington National
Airport dining room and coffee
shop in February, 1947, will be
tried before a jury at 10 am.
tomorrow in Federal District
Court, Alexandria.
Air Terminal Services, Inc, op-
orator Of the airport eating
facilities, is defendant in the &C
ton brought by Mrs. Helen Nash
of 1880 Thirteenth street NV.
Her suit charges that the con-
cessionaire failed to provide eat
ing facilities for Mrs. Nash equal
to those provided white patrons.
The Arlington school discrimi-
nation suit decided by Judge Al
bert v. Bryan last week in the
Alexandria court hinged on a
similar point. Judge Bryan ruled
that education facilities for white
and colored in Arlington were
substantially equal. and there was
no discrimination.
Mrs. Nash originally sought an
additional $4,000 damages on
grounds that segregation was IL
legal. Judge Bryan threw out all
counts in the case based on segre-
cation, however, declaring that
separation of the races was en-
forced at the airport in 1947 on
instructions of the Civil Aeronau-
tics Administrator.
Subsequently. the CAA in De-
cember, 1948, issued a regulation
ending segregation at the airport.
ATS brought a test case and
Judge Bryan upheld legality Of
the CAA regulation. Two suits
similar to the one brought by Mrs.
Nash were dropped after airport
segregation was ended.
In refusing to throw out the
Allegation in Mrs. Nash's suit that
1.-THE colored eating facilities did
not compare favorably with those
lfor white patrons. Judge Bryan
said that II Mrs. Nash was de-
Iprived Of equal facilities it would
CONSTITUTE violation of the Fifth
Amendment OF the Constitution.
