Federal Unions

CaCA0A SAAAkA4JC AAAAOA4 OAAASAhA@l
today urged Congress to enact
legislation requiring Government
agencies to recognize officially
Iemploye unions.
The witnesses represented en-
ploye locals from all parts of the
country as the Senate Civil Serv-
ice Committee opened hearings
on the bill.
The large Senate caucus room
was filed and hundreds of en-
ploye leaders waited in the cor
ridors for chance to get seats
later.
The bill would require Federal
agencies to deal with employe
unions on all personnel policy
matters and on grievances. In
addition. arbitration boar d S
would be established in all agen-
cies to resolve the differences
between management and en-
lployes. The boards would be
composed of three members
Representatives Of management

one designated by the Secretary
of Labor.
Sees Morale Improved
Arthur. L. Sparks, president
Of American Federation of Gov.
eminent Employees Lodge 81, st
Louis. Mo-. declared:
Approval Of this bill will be
the greatest step forward in the
improvement of employe-man-
agement relations in the Gov
eminent service since the adop-
ton of the merit system. This
bill will do more to increase
the morale and stability of the
Government employee than any
other method ever used or pro-
posed. The Government en-
lploye will at long last have q
voice in the interest of his work.

that were destroying employ,

postmasters and other postal of

regulations affecting employs
without prior consultation with
the unions.
Senator Humphrey Democra
of Minnesota, a former member
Iof the committee, testified on be-
half Of his Federal employe con

This legislation would give

But the unsigned opinion for
