On June Is, an Emergency Board ap-
pointed by President Truman under the
terms of the Railway Labor Act recon-
mended the railroads grant switchmen a
4O-hour week and a wage increase OF ID
cents an hour, or $1.44 for an 8-hour day.
Despite the added financial burden in
volved, the railroads are ready to accept
these recommendations, as they have al
ways accepted Emergency Board recon-
mendations on national issues.
But the leaders of the Switchmen's
Union refuse to accept! They demand an
average increase of 81 CENTS AN HOUR OR
$2.48 A DAY-although their present earn
ings are substantially higher than those of
workers in other industries!
Board Says Demands Unjustifed
In its report, the Board declared this de-
mand unjustifed by all the evidence pre-
scented. It also pointed out that it would
give the switchmen an unfair pay advan-
tage over other groups of railroad en-
ployes, and would add too great a burden
to railroad costs.
Here is another case of a railroad union
fouting the findings of an Emergency
Board-another case of calling a Gripping

Union leaders answer 10 Board is.

In face of Board findings TO the contrary union leaders insist on
48 hours pay for 40 hours work. This would be an average in
crease of 81 cents an hour, or $2.4S a day. So Union leaders
have called a completely Uniustifed strike on S Western rail-
roads, effective June IS.

strike in an outrageous and reckless at
tempt to force demands which the Board
clearly labels as unjustifed!
Leaders of the Switchmen's Union are
calling this strike in defiance of the Board
in defiance of the facts-and at the ex-
pense of the public!
In it's report on this case, the Board
made this statement:
1.-THE railroad industry, the Board be-
Eieves. needs above all else a period of
relative stability TO adjust and udupf itself
TO present competitive postwar eondi-
fions."
Despite this warning, the leaders of the
Switchmen's Union are upsetting the
apple-cart-forcing a completely ~unjusti-
fed strike against everybody who uses the
railroads.

NLRB Upholds Union Mccarthy Accuses
Rightto Payroll Data if Truman Of Deceit
Needed in Bargaining In Release Of Files
Records on Non-Union
Employees Included in
First Decision of Kind
BY the Associated Press

The National Labor Relations
Board yesterday ruled unanimous
ly that an employer must give a
union full payroll data when the
union asks the information for
collective bargaining.
The board held that a union is
entitled to the names, positions
and wage rates of employes-both
on current basis and for at least
a year past-in order to have a
full picture of the wage situation.
= The ruling said such payroll
data is required to be given the
union for all employees in the bar
gaining unit represented by the
union NLRB officials said this
means that payroll data must be
submitted for any non-union en-
ployes within the unit, as we'll as
employees who are union members.
This was the first time the NLRB
ordered general wage rates made
available to unions. In a series of
recent decisions it has decided
that data on individual, or merit
pay raises, also must be given a
union on request as a basis for
determining union wage demands
in bargaining.
Case Involves Office Employees.
Yesterdays ruling was given in
case brought by the AFL's Office
Employees International Union,
Local No. "a, Rochester, N. Y,
against the Yawman & Erbe Man
ufacturing Co., an office supply
concern.
The union charged the COM
pany with refusal to bargain be-
cause it declined to give the union
payroll information currently and
for January /, 1916, 1947 and 1948
The bargaining began after a la
Dor contract expired in February
1949.
The board ruled unanimously
that the company was guilty OF
failure to bargain because it did
not furnish current payroll names
job titles and pay rates. 1t also
held that the union should have
received the January /, 194S, pay
roll data.
However, the board denied,
