Denoted Policeman Asks
For New Board Hearino

A Fourteenth Precinct police
man, reduced in rank for disci-
plinary reasons, petitioned U. S.
District Court for the District of
Columbia yesterday for a new
trial board hearing.
In his request, Pvt. Joseph NJ.
Frye, IS. said he was denied a
full hearing by the trial board
last July. The panel ordered his
demotion from corporal to pri-
vate for conduct prejudicial to
the best interests of the force.
The policeman said his attor-
ney was unable to cross-examine
a co-defendant, Pvt. Stanley E.
Turner, 25, because the lawyer
also represented Turner, and,
therefore. could not impeach his
testimony.
Turner, fined $50, said Frye
told him to deny to superiors
that they were in the vicinity Of
FairlaWn and Pennsylvania ave-
nues Sc. where complaints had
been made the two had tampered
with an automatic ice machine.
Pvt. Frye also asked that he
be restored to his former rank,
pending outcome of the new trial
board hearing, if granted.

.UE Chief Challenges
u. 5. Jury's Request
To Decertify His Unior
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-A
spokesman for one of four inde-
pendent unions which a Federal
grand jury believes should be de-
certified says the panels request
has no legal effect whatsoever" ;"
The jury recommended yester-
day that the National Labor Re-
lations Board revoke its certifica-
ton of the four unions as bargain
ing agents because of 13 of their
officers have refused to verify their
non Communist afhdavits.
Albert j. Fitzgerald, general
president of the United Electrical
Workers, later issued statement
saying the panels action will
meet with outraged opposition of
all unions"
He added the jury's private
opinion cannot cancel out
bargaining rights which union
workers have won after years of
struggle.
"UE will continue now as in the
past to defend the welfare of the
workers it represents as we'll as
thousands of workers yet unor-
ganized in our industry"
$4,000 Workers.
Mr.. Fitzgerald's union claims a
membership of 100000.
The grand jurys recommended
ton was contained in a present.
ment handed up to Federal Judge
Edward Weinfeld.
Officers of the four unions. the
statement said. had been ques-
toned by the grand jury about
attidavits they signed under the
Taft-Hartley law. The officers
stated in the affidavits that they
were not affiliated with the Com
munist Party or other Communist
|groups.
Asked if the afddavits were true
the 13 declined to answer, accord
ing to the presentment.
Four Unions Listed.
The four unions are the UE, the
American Communications Asso-
ciation, the Fur and Leather
Workers of America.
| UE, AGA and the Fur Workers
were expelled from the CIO or
the grounds of alleged Communist
tendencies in their leaderships
The fourth union includes ele.
mentS of other unions elected BY
the CIO.
A union can function without
NLRB certification, but only to 6
limited extent. It cannot use
NLRB services to bring unfair la.
Dor practice charges or to try t.
force an employer to bargain.
