Also. the bill gives employee
leaders the right to conduct union
business and collect dues in Fed
eral buildings without intimida-
ton or coercion as long as it is

Il -
DELETED-The committee did
strike out several features of the
original bill which it found OBJ
jectionable.
For one thing, it deleted the
provision which would impose
|prison sentences and fines on Fed
eral officials who were found
guilty Of discouraging unionism
in their agencies.
Also, the committe eliminated
a clause whereby only unions with
the greatest majority in a par
ticular agency would be recog-
lnized as the spokesman for the
agency's employees. Under the bill
reported by the committee, all
valid employe unions would par
ticipate in the program.

predicts that such legislation
eventually will become law.
"It took us two years to get even
this far" Mr.. Rhodes declared.
give or 10 years ago We couldn't
even have gotten hearings on such
a bill.
II feel that when the bills true
purpose is understood by Congress.
/ it will be approved. Among those
who voted to approve the bill in
our committee were both Demo-
Gratis and Republicans, liberals
and conservatives"
The only one voting against the
measure was Chairman Murray,
who declared that such legisla-
ton wasn't necessary because most
agencies already deal on an in
formal basis with employe unions.
Mr.. Rhodes contends such law
is necessary because there are
still few departments and
agencies which have anti-union
policies.
1.-THE bill has been misunder-
stood by a lot of people," Mr..
Rhodes said. "It does not give
employees the right to strike, nor
does 1t in any way force or
pressure employees into joining
unions. What it does is to require
agencies to consult and work with
employe groups in solving mutual
personnel problems.
"It's something that is being
done all the time in private in
dustry. Government should be
no different"
PROVISIONS-The bill would
require departments and agencies
to enter into official dealings with
employe unions on such personnel
matters as grievances, safety and
in-service training programs, en-
ploye appeals. granting of annual
and sick leave. promotions. de-
motions, Encouragement CO.
operation and pay matters.
Regarding pay matters, Con-
gress actually sets the salaries Of
classified employees, while wage
boards determine salaries of per
diem workers. However. this pro-
vision was left in the bill so that
