Unions Win Battle
For Workers Rights
In u. S. Navy Yards

WASHINGTON Il P AZ
Labor organizations representing
employees in Uncle Sans NafS
Yards have won several roufhs =
in their battle for protection of
union rights.
1.-The Navy announced that
supervisory employees who are
union members may participate
actively in union affairs and
hold office in unions. Hitherto,
when employees were promoted
to supervisory jobs they had to
cease activity in unions, though
they could retain membership.
2-The Department decreed
that grievances should be set
tied, wherever possible, at the
lowest level of management,
rather than be passed up to top
officials.
81 cal commandants of
Navy Yards were instructed to
leave it up to the employees on
whether or not they want to
establish a shop committee in
each yard. The commandants
themselves are not to set up the
committees, the Department
said. Regular unions have been
critical of some of the shop COM
mittees as virtual company
unions"
Also, the Department restated
the Navy's policy that it "rec-
ognize the right of employees to
organize" and that navy yard Of
ficials shall deal with represen-
tatives of those employees who
organize"

vireinio Court
Upholds Ban On
Closed Shops

STAUNTON Va. LPA)-Its
no surprise, but the Supreme
Court of Virginia, where Sem
ator Byrd runs the show, has up
held the validity of the states
so-called right to work" law,
which prohibits closed shop con-
tracts. Similar laws have been
sustained in other states.
A difference is that here an
employer, rather than union,
challenged the laws constitu-
tionality. Claude F. Finney, a
print shop operator at Newport
News had signed closed shop
pact with printing trades unions.
A pressman who failed to join
up was discharged, and got a
money judgement in lower court
against the firm.

What the papers haven't re-
ported is that the busloads of
scabs have provoked the clashes
themselves, arm e d with lead
pipes, rubber hose and other
weapons. Scabs living inside the
plant, union sources say, have
been coming out of the gates
in armed groups and trying to
unload the buses.
1t was in one of these flurries,
UAW leaders report, that Re-
gional Director Martin Gerher
was knocked from the running
board of car and injured. Ger
Der, now in the hospital, is
faced with a warrant for his
arrest which cannot be served
until he recover.
Warrants are also out for the
arrest of all the other union
leaders. One local UAW officer
has been found and slapped in
jail. His bail is set at $4,000.
Forced to take some action,
Governor Dewey hastily return
ed from state fair in Syracuse,
where the New York Herald
Tribune reported he was kissed
by a COW. Back in A | b a y,
Dewey summoned UAW Sub
regional Dire ctor Ed Gray,
Niagara County Sheriff Henry
T.. Becker, and District Attorney
William E. Miller to meeting
in his office.
In telegram to the Gov
ernor, Gray replied that union
officials refused to attend a
meeting with Miller, pointing
out that just the day before
Miller spoke at a meeting inside
the plant along with Bell vice
president and described his
plans for wholesale arrest of
union leaders.
worn affidavitS containing
statements from Miller'S speech
are now in the hands of the
union, Gray said. Miller also
told newsmen that once the
leaders were in custody the
violence would cease.

fee Departments suggestions:
/. Shop now-get your Christmas
mail and packages off as early as
possible.
2. Wrap your gifts carefully. Ad-
dress them plainly-Aunt Susie may
be able to decipher your handwrit-
ing, but not all poStmen carry mag
nifying glasses and crystal balls.
Register valuable letters. Insure
valuable packages.
8. Be sure to put the full address
on each piece of mail. Include city
zone numbers.
4. Send your Christmas cards by
IirSt-claSs mail. Put a three-cent
stamp on every Christmas card and
seal the envelopes. They are more
personal that way, and if your
friend has moved, the card will be
forwarded. Third-clas mail doesn't
have that privilege.
