The National Labor Relations
Board today ordered an election
showdown as soon as possible
between the rival West Coast
seamen's unions headed by
Harry Lundeberg and Harry
Bridges.
The board ordered balloting
among all the estimated 5000
seamen working on vessels
operating out of West Coast
points for member companies of
the Pacific Maritime Associa-
ton.
The seamen will choose which
union they want to represent
them in single bargaining unit.
Bargaining Units.
There now are three bargain
ing units-the deck and below
deck units represented by divi-
sions of Mr.. Lundeberg's AFL
Sailors Union of the Pacific
(SUP), and the non-union
stewards unit.
Mr.. Bridges, whose inter-
national Longshoremen's and
Warehousemen's Union ULWU)
was one of those ousted from
the CIO in 1850 on grounds of
having followed the Communist
line, had asked the NLRB for an
election only in the stewards
unit.
Mr.. Lundeberg was successful
in pressing for a single unit for
all three seamen's groups.

With Mr.. Lundeberg already
holding bargaining rights for the
deck and below deck seamen pre-
sumably he will have an advan-
tage in the single-unit election
contest with Mr.. Bridges. Mr.

from two American security of

Marguerite Schmidt, IS, was
confirmed by Chief United States
Prosecutor Thomas c. Lancian.
Charges of espionage have
been filed in an American High
Commission court in Frankfurt.
She will be arraigned in Berlin
next Tuesday.
Mr.. Lancian declined further

He will come to Berlin to present
the Governments case against
Miss Schmidt.

An authoritative American

THE woman is alleged to have
carried on espionage for the So
viets for 18 months. becoming
the mistress of a high-ranking
American security officer. and
also the occasional sweetheart
OF a civilian in a key security
post.
"She is suspected of having
penetrated American security in
Berlin probably further than any
other foreign agent"
Trap Was Set.
"a Germa. employe in another
security Office here was her
downfall" the official continued.
"She went to him for informa-
ton, saying that if he would get
it for her, the Soviets would
release her from her job as a
spy and they could get married.
THE German went to his
American superiors. A trap was
set. The German was given the
authentic information the wo-
man asked for. She was ar
rested December l as she tried
to take' it back to the East"
The legal branch of the United
States High Commission in Ber-
lin said that Miss Schmidt, il

mum sentence of life imprison-
ment. But if she pleads guilty.
she could get as little as three
years. The legal branch said

Sailor Conviction
In Key West Morals
Case 10 Be Reviewed

The United States Military
Court Of Appeals to-day ordered
the reconsideration of q sentence
imposed on q Navy,seaman who
was convicted OF sodomy during
a wild party two years ago at
the Naval Base at Key West.

The appeals court ordered the
Judge Advocate General Of the

chute Bigger SIC. whose home is
In Brockton, Mass.
Doherty was tried by q general
court martial In South Carolina
and sentenced to q bad conduct
discharge, forfeiture OF 500 q
month for six months and con-
finement to hard labor for six
months.
Forfeitures Were Cut.
Members of the court, however.
submitted a letter to the con-
vening authority. recommending
that the bad conduct discharge
be remitted. The converting au-
thority then reduced the for
FIXTURES to 500 a month for two
months and the confinement to
hard labor for two months.
The court noted, however, that
in his action the convening au-
thority indicated that he might
have suspended or remitted the
discharge but failed to do that
because Of a naval directive re-
garding such cases.
The appellate court held to-
day that the convening authority
had no right to be Influenced
by such a directive, reversed the
case and ordered it sent back
to the convening authority for
reconsideration.

CATION that q number Of Naval
officers were disciplined and one
was suspended.
The party was held during a
charity carnival which was
part of q Navy relief drive. The
smoker, at which Doherty was
convicted Of sodomy involving a
woman who appeared as an en-
tertainer, was held off base but
tickets were sold by several chief
petty officers as well as civilians
who gave the false impression
that it was in connection with
naval activities.
The court noted that some 800
persons, including some naval
officers, were present.
