New Manipulation and
'Hieh-Honded' Charges
By jones Y. Newton

New charges of manipulation
Of properties and iron handed
control of the AFL International
Printing Pressmen's Union by the
top officers were heard today by
a House Labor Subcommittee in
vestigating financial operations
and possible "undemocratic prac-
tices" within the union.
Leo l.. Lescure. an employe OF
the Government. Printing ONCE
and member of Pressnen's Local
No. / here, told the committee
that four members Of the Wash
ington local weie susper eled when
they sought an investigation OF
the international in the is20s.
He identified two Of those sus-
pended as c. r. Mcclure and
Louis w. Thomas, who once again
are active in the local.
Mr.. Lescure said the four men
undertook investigation OF a
charge that printing presses in
tended for the unions trade school
at Pressmen' Home. Tenn. the
international headquarters. were
diverted to a printing plant in
Knoxville-the j. w. Breem Co.
allegedly owned by the late George
L. Berry. president of the union
for Al years. An attorney who
represented the quartet was John
j. Deviny. the present public
printer, Mr.. Lescure said.
Feared Loss Of Charters.
The witness said union locals
were constantly in fear of inquir-
ing into affairs Of the interna-
tional-mainly Mr.. Berry's affairs
because they were told If they
did Mr.. Berry would take the
charters of the locals.
Mr.. Lescure said enother prac-
tice of the international was to
name outside delegates to repre-
sent what he described as ghost
or poor locals in conventions OF
the international. He said 1t was
ostensibly done because the small
unites were unable to support
delegates Of their own. But he
added the reason was not valid
because expenses Of delegates are
paid for by the international.
He charged that at the union .
convention of 1910. Charles Ernest,
now an international vice presi-
dent, appeared as representatives
of locals in Norfolk and Roanoke,
