Labor Spies Used
By Aircraft Corp.

East Hartford, Conn. (LPA)-
The United Aircraft Corp. has been
accused by the Us government of
using labor spies in an effort to
break up a union. The government
is United Aircraft's only big Gus
toner. The union is the Interna-
tional Association Of Machinists.
The National Labor Relations
B oard has issued complaints
against Pratt & Whitney, and
Hamilton Standard Propeller, both
United Aircraft divisions. The
NLRB charges that:
The firm used employees to spy
on union meetings; suborned Of
ficers of the local and its negotiat-
ing committee; interrogated en-
ployes about union affiliation
threatened to fire workers who
joined or aided the union; kept
under surveillance the meetings
and activities of employees seeking
to improve working conditions
warned employees not to assist the
union, join, or remain members.
The complaints followed charges
made by LAM after a careful in
vestigation. eve will present the
evidence at the hearings" said Al
Hayes, lam president. The law
gives employees the right to at
tempt to better their conditions
through organization and collective
bargaining, said Hayes. eve are

Hayes assailed the growing in
clination of some business corpor-
ations to assume that the govern
ment cannot or will not enforce en-
plOyes' rights.

Two Liberals Team Up To
Defeat Oregon ReactiOnary

Klamath Falls, Ore. (LPA) =
Henry Semon, registered Democrat
with a long arch-reactionary re-
cord, is seeking a tenth term as a
representative from this district to
the state legislature. Opposing him
for the nomination in the May 19
primaries are Jesse Smith, farmer,
and Jerry Rutledge, farmer and
railroader. But instead of fighting
each other, they are jointly fight
ing Semon. They've posed together
for pictures on their political cards
and when one can't make a political
rally, the other speaks for both
himself and his opponent.
Semon's supporters, desperately
seeking a campaign issue, have
tagged Smith and Rutledge as
meft-wing socialists" The people
don't seem to be biting on that
one.

NLRB SLAPS FIRM FOR
PUNISHING UNION EMPLOYEES

Emeryville, Calf. (LPA) = A
company which punished its en-
ployes for going union has been
slapped down by the National
Labor Relations Board.
The Westinghouse Pacific Coast
Air Brake Co. questioned workers
about their union affiliation and
threatened to cut pay or shut the
plant if the workers voted for the
union-the international Associa-
ton of Machinists. The NLRB cleo
ton was held Aug. 81, 1948, and
the lam won, 2l to Is. An hour
and half after the polls closed,
the company cut the work week
from As to 40 hours, thus eliminat-
ing five hours of overtime pay, al
though its orders were on the in
crease. The Board ruled this action
was illegal discrimination, ordered
the employees reimbursed for the
wages lost, and ordered the return
of the 45-hour week.

Fight Purchase of UN Supplies
From Nations Using Slave Labor

New York City (ILNS). - Pur'
chase of equipment or supplies fol
the new United Nations headquar
ters from countries employing fore
ed labor will be opposed by the
American Federation of Labor.
An AFL spokesman made il
known at temporary UN headquar'
ters at Lake Success that the fed
eration's executive council wa:
keeping watchful eye on the
award of contracts to countrie:
that have been accused of slave
labor practices.
The AFL has charged before UN
agencies that the Soviet Union an6
other states in the Communist bloc
have been guilty of holding millions
of workers under slave labor con
ditions and has presented detailed
Recommendation to the Economic ant
Social Council in support of its ac
cusations.
Both the Soviet Union ant
Czechoslovakia have indicated thai
they are interested in selling furn
ishings to the United Nations fol
use in the world capital, now under
construction here. A list compiled
by the United Nations shows thai
both states are interested in sup
plying floor covering and carpet
ing, office machines and radio
equipment, as well as Photographic
and microfilm supplies and furni
ture.
So far no formal action has beer
taken to bring the case before the
AFL council, but there is chance
the matter will be discussed wher
it meets May s at Philadelphia.

Labor Hits Postal Service
Cuts As "PennY-Pinching"
Move Gripping Business

Washington, ID. Z. (ILNS). -
Labor reaction to Postmaster Cen
eral Jesse M. Donaldson's order
cutting postal service in the name
of economy" was prompt and vig-
orous.
AFL President William Green
blasted the order as "penny- pinch
ing" which would cripple the postal
service, handicap business and in
crease unemployment. The Nation
al Association of Letter Carriers
denounced the order as "illtimed'
and "a rape of the postal service"
The order would cut home mail
deliveries to one a day, curtail SER
vice to business offices and reduce
street mailbox collections.
Calling for a congressional inves-
tigation of the Postmaster Gener-
ais order, President Green declar-
ed it would "cripple the postal SER
vice and severely handicap business
which must depend upon prompt
and efficient mail service"
See Move "RidiculOus'
SIN the name of economy" he
continued, "the order will cost the
American people many millions of
dollars. AT a time when unemploy-
ment is becoming serious, it will
throw many thousands of addition
al employees out of work.
"The American Federation of
Labor will demand an investigation
by Congress of this unwise and un-
necessary blow at our vital postal
service.
"Isn't it ridiculous to spend huge
sums of government money to de-
velop high-speed mail transporta-
tion by air, only to have the mail
held up by horse-and-buggy deliv-
cry on the ground?

eff the Post Office Department
is so anxious to make better book
keeping showing and wipe out an
alleged operating deficit, why does
MT it eliminate wasteful expendi-
lures to railroads for hauling empty
mail cars across the continent and
for hauling mail back and forth be-
cause of lack of storage at terminal
points?
"The Postmaster Generals order
is equivalent to saving few drops
at the bung while wasting gallons
at the spigot. The traditional policy.
of the postal system has always
been service above all. That policy
must be maintained to protect our
national economy. Congress should
move at once to investigate the

apartment houses who suffered
minor tortures during a four-day
strike Of the building employees,

BOARD REJECTS
CRAFT UNIONS

Oakland, Calf. (LPA) = The
aluminium industry is too complete
" integrated to allow craft unions
to operate effectively, the National
Labor Relations Board ruled May
1. The unanimous decision came in
"a case involving employees at two
plants of Henry Kaiser Perman-
ente Metals Corp, whose headquar-
ters are here.
The board dismissed petitions Of
four craft unions seeking units in
the Permanente plants in Trent
wood and Mead, Wash. Also dis
missed was a petition by the AFL
Aluminium Council of Spokane,
Wash, which opposed the introduc-
tion Of craft unionism but asked
for separate unit at brentwood.
By dismissing the petitions, the
board sustained the contentious of
the United Steelworkers, which
argued for a combined unit includ-
ing both the brentwood and Mead
installations. The S e e W rkers
union already represented alum
inum workers in both towns.
Unions seeking craft units were
the International Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers-AFL, Plumb
ers-AFL, Carpenters-AF'L, and Ma
chinists. By ruling against craft
unionism at Permanente the board
reversed an earlier decision invol-
wing employees of the Reynolds
Metals Co. Board members explain
ed that in the Reynolds case they
lacked persuasive proof" of in
tegration.

Four prominent Danish tr a d e

Olsen, chairman of the Danish
Railroad Workers union; Victor
Madsen, treasurer, and NJ. OIL
gaard Rasmussen, secretary.
The three assaiIed "the obvious
dictatorship of the party as re-
CARDS trade unions, said "no means
is now too dirty to be used, disrup-
tions are daily happenings and
therefore the workers turn from
the party. They feel they have
been let down." The letter also as
sailed the party press uncritical
attitude toward developments be-
hind the Iron Curtain and said
Danish workers must see "there is
something rotten in the system"
The letter asked "why has the
Party not worked on a policy which
would convince the population that
here in this country a real demo-
cracy could be created, in which
any opinion without risk could be
voiced. Nobody has any guarantee
that an opinion which is not the
