Denham Alarmed
AT Power OF AFL
Transfers Union

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3O.-CPj.
The general counsel for the
National Labor Relations Board.
Robert Denham, says that he is
alarmed at the possibility thai
the AFL Transfers Union ever
might exercise its full power.
Denham declared that if the
Transfers ever exercise their
concentrated power they could
influence virtually every indus
try in the country.
In a speech prepared for the
American Trucking Associations
meeting here, Denham said that
the potential strength of the mil
norman union is sufficient TO
dwarf the economic power Of
those so-called monopolistic gi-
ant unions into relative insight
fiacnce.
Denham also said that despite
the Taft Hartley law aimed at
curling abuses of union power.
we still have a long way to go
before the intent of Congress will
be realized.
