NLRB Ruling Clears Way For
Pickering Foreign Flag Ships

fectly legal for seamen's union tc
picket a shipyard where a shiI
under repair is the subject of &
primary dispute. Moreover, the
fact that the ship flies foreign
flag is no bar to picketing provid
ed the dispute is genuine. There is
only one proviso: the ships crew
must be aboard. Otherwise the pic.
keting would constitute secondary
boycott.
That's the way trial examiner
for the National Labor Relations
Board ruled May 81 in a case in
volving the Sailors Union of the
Pacific, Moore Drydock Co. and the
SIS Phopho, a Panamanian flag
freighter belonging to the Com
pania Martina Samsoc, Ltda, s.
A., most of whose stock is owned
by Greeks. Unless the ruling is con-
tested within 20 days it takes eff
feet as a board order.
If the decision stands, it may
greatly strengthen the hand of the
American and European unions of
the International Transportworkers
Federation who are pressing for
the return of their original flags
of the ships transferred to Panam-
anian registry to avoid union
wages, taxes and high engineering
standards, waterfront observers
feel. The unions planned an around
theworld boycott of Panamanian
vessels. However, the boycott would
center on American docks and AM
erican unions, citing the Taft Hart
ley ban on secondary boycotts, re-
Gently pointed out that American
law jeopardized the whole cam
paign. In the light of this ruling
stronger boycott action than con-
templated may be possible.
The "Phopho beef" as Sailors
Union of the Pacific members call
it, began in 1949 when the Kaiser
Gypsum Co., owned by famed in
dustrialist Henry Kaiser, signed a
six-year contract with Samsoc for
the delivery of gypsum from an
island off Mexico to California
ports. Previously the gypsum was
carried in a Kaiser-owned Ameri-
can flag vessel.
The SUP, which is the west coast
district of the Seafarers Interna-
tional Union-AFL, organized the
Phopho crew and petitioned the
NLRB for a bargaining election.
The San Francisco regional direc-
tor of the board turned down the
petition on the ground that the
NLRB had no jurisdiction over a
foreign ship. The board in Wash
ington sustained this view.
When the Phopho entered the
Moore yard for repairs the SUP,
unable to get inside Moore's pre-
misses, picketed outside the ship
yard. Moore then complained to the
NLRB. The office of board general
counsel Bob Denham got an in
junction against the union and is
sued charges, contending the SUP
violated the secondary boycott ban
by (D picketing the shipyard at
all; (2) telling the union repre-
of Moore's employees the
ship was shot" and requesting CO.
operation; and (3) distributing lit
erature reporting that the local
Metal Trades Council was support
ng the seamen.
The examiner, Arthur Left, said
he SUP got as close to the vessel
as possible, did not ask Moore's
employees to stop work other than
on the Phopho itself and had a leg
innate interest in publicizing the
acts of it's demand for recognition
md improvements from Samsoc.
Jeff said his thinking was heavily
influenced by the fact that the

Post

The following letter comes from
a foreigner visiting America:
will you kindly tell me what is
considered correct attire for both
ladies and gentlemen at Sunday
evening concerts of important
artists. I have not so far seen
full evening dress anywhere on
Sundays and am therefore sup
posing that it is considered un-
suitable on this day"
The reason why full dress is
rarely worn on a Sunday is that
there are no big balls or other
private parties given on that eve
ming. The tuxedo for a gentle
man and a simple dinner dress for
a. lady are, therefore, in best taste
for the concerts you speak of.

quite few children in our families

icommotion at the reception and
also create a food problem.
Answer: If there is no one to
take care of the children belong
ing to your near relatives. they
must. of course, be brought by
their parents. On the other hand.
children "in general" should not
be taken to weddings until old
enough to behave well-and never
unless definitely invited.

THE GREAT
GAME OF
POLITICS

Is There No Limit?

In this place last week the out
standing reason for loss of popular
confidence in he Democratic Adj
minstration was listed as failure of
the President to rise above the poll
tics as usual" level since the Korean
invasion. To this there was an unusual
response from readers who pointed
out that sound as were the incidents
given to support this belief, an even
more convincing cause for resentment
lies in the degrading tolerance toward
corruption in public life evinced by
the Democratic leadership.
This feeling was greatly stimu-
lated two weeks ago when in House
debate over an armory construction
program the name of former Rep
resentive Andrew j. May, of Ken
lucky, was mentioned. Mr.. May, it will
be recalled, was chairman of the
House Military Affairs Committee
during World War II. In 1947 he was
convicted of accepting $4,000 in
brides for his influence in having war
contracts awarded Short of actual
treason, a more despicable crime on
the part of a public man can hardly
be conceived. Sentenced to serve in the
INliittllllellN lIOlll o " - llOillllSs lllS
application for parole was rejected a
short time ago after he had served his
minimum sentence. On August Is,
when the name of this acknowledged
bribe-taker came up, Democratic
Leader John Mccormack, of Massa-
chusetts, leaped to his feet and
shouted that he could not resist the
opportunity ito pay a tribute to Andy
- /, Il
crook a great American" and de-
clared that the people of his district
ARE Justified in being proud of him"
Not the least shocking part of this
performance was that this tribute to
a proven CRATER was received with
applause from a considerable number
Of Democratic members. 1t is almost
unbelievable that in a body of men
claiming the respect of honest people
not single voice should have been
raised to protest against this lauda-
tion Of man whose unsavory record
has disgraced the House Of Repre-
sontatives as has nothing else in a
generation. One correspondent asks:
ITO what depths Of moral degradation
are we sinking ,"
Certainly, it is easy to understand
h e Indignation which Mr.. McCor-
mack's description Of the bribe-taking
Mr.. May as a great American" has
aroused among people who read it.
What induced Mr.. Mccormack to
make so outrageous a statement is
not known. He ought to apologize to
tn e House and to the American
people. 1t is not easy for self-re-
speeding Democrats to follow such a
leader and the popular resentment is
not surprising. There ought to be
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1950-09-07

ways of making this more effectively
felt, and Mr.. Mccormack ought not
to be permitted to get away with SO
indecent tribute" without a rebuke
that he will not forget.
1t is natural, too, that this should
recall the action of President Truman
in pardoning James Michael Curley,
Democratic Mayor of Boston, who was
convicted in 1916 on charges of using
the United States mails to defraud.
Two appeals for a Supreme Court re-
view failed and so did a final effort
to suspend the Jail sentence on
grounds of age and health. The Tru-
man pardon freed Mr.. Curley exactly
five months after he began serving
his six to eighteen months prison
sentence. Though unaccompanied b Y
anything as brazen as the Mccormack
eulogy, Mr.. Truman's action, besides
restoring citizenship to this convicted
Democrat, released him in time to
spend Thanksgiving with his family.
This seemed very kindhearted indeed,
but his most intimate friends have
not suggested that Mr.. Truman would
have been quite so sentimental about
Republican crook just ahead of the
1913 election.
There is, of course, no link between
the Messrs. May and Curley and the
case of Alger Hiss. Mr.. Hiss was not
charged with fraud or graft. But,
while convicted of perjury, the public
generally held him guilty of the far
more serious crime of transmitting
secret State Department documents
to a known Communist, who was
sending them to Russia. Yet pract-
cally the whole Democratic Admins
tration supported Mr.. Hiss, and so far
as any retraction is concerned, still
supports him. When the facts were
first revealed, Mr.. Truman asserted
they were merely "a red herring"
Others high up in his Administration
testified to the high character of Mr..
Hiss and their complete belief in his
innocence. Not one of these has ever
letreated from this position, though
after two trials Hiss final conviction
left slight room to doubt his guilt
There is the further fact that, how
ever stupid and reckless Senator Nc
earthly may be, the Administration
attitude from the start of that in
vestigation was such as to leave many
feeling it was more concerned with
discrediting Mccarthy than with full
disclosure of the truth.
When in a time such as this Dem
0 cratic leaders can proclaim such a
man as May great American" it
iuStifies recalling these other in
