The leagues Committee on
Employe Organizations is ex-
pected to urge a more liberal
labor management policy in
Government, more formal rec
ognition of employe unions and
more extensive dealings with
them on matters involving per-
sonnel policies and grievances.
The committee is composed
OF top industrialiSts, educators
and labor officials. 1t is headed
by Winston Paul, New York in
duStrialiSt who is chairman of
the General Aniline and Film
Corp. Finance Committee.
Other members are Cecil
Morgan of Standard Oil Co. of

ice of New York University,
James Mitchell of Brookings
Institution, John w. Macy, jr.,
of Wesleyan University; Prof.

versity's School of Business.
George Richardson of the AFL-

In addition to recognition of
public employe unions. the
committee also will make rec
concentrations on the degree

able in Government, a oues
checkoff system, etc.

'PARADOX-The committees
study is especially timely in
view of the successful enact
ment Of Federal classified and
postal employe pay raise legis-
lation.
Virtually all m e m b bers. of
Congress as well as administra-
ton officials are agreed that
there would not have been any
pay raise this year if it hadn't
been for the postal and Federal
employe unions.
Even President Eisenhower
paid an unintended tribute to
the power of the unions in his
veto message when he lashed
out at the pressure" tactics Of
the postal unions, which he de-
clared had resulted in the en-
actment of the pay raise legis-
lation. Mr.. Eisenhower also re-
ferred to the unions drive to
overturn his veto-a drive that
was successful.
All this points up the postal
and Federal employe unions
effective and satisfactory re-
lationship with Congress "a
relationship which amounts in
effect to virtual collective bar
gaining status between Con-
gress and the unions.
However, the picture is much
different when it comes to the
unions dealings with the var
ious Government departments
and agencies.
It's true that on the issue of
most basic benefts-pay, re-
tirement. health and life in
surance, etc.-the unions deal
with Congress. and on a gen.
orally satisfactory basis.
But equally important from
the unions point of view are
the problems of employe griev-
ances, job security, promotions,
demotions, disrnissals, working !

Pittsburgh, Pa, - The Super

dismissed an appeal by the Rev.
D. Ward Nichols, suspended bish-
op Of the AME Church.
Bishop Nichols is under indict-
ment accusing him of embezzling
$3.50, 900 Of church funds.
His appeal was against the re-
fusal Of Judge Bernard J. Kelley,
in Common Pleas Court here, to
accept Nichols contention that the
Indictment on a district attorney
bill in 1868 was illegal because
there was no preliminary hearing.
The Superior Court did not pass
on the merits Of the contention. It
held that the first remedy lay in
Quarter Sessions Court here and
the appeal was premature.
