Unions Lose
Cases TESTING
SO Labor Act
By the Associated Press

The National Labor Rela-
tons Board has ruled against
three unions in cases testing
sections Of the 1853 LAndrum-
Griffin Act. The best known
case involved the Stork Club
restaurant of New York.
In all the cases yesterday,
the NLRB ordered q halt in

company to recognize or bar.
gain with a union.
The cases involved the Hod
Carriers. Hotel and Restaurant
Employees, and Teamsters Un-
IONS. and the Blinne Construc-
ton Co. Of Kansas City, the
Crown Cafeteria Of Long Beach,
Calf. and the Carriage and
Terminal Management Corp.
Of Chicago. as well as the Stork
Club. p
The Landrum- Griffin Act
bans union picketing aimed at
forcing company recognition
unless q petition is filed within
30 days calling for an NLRB-
sponsored election. These elec-
tons determine whether the
union is certified to represent
the company's employees.
The act. however, does not
prohibit pieketing which at
temptS to inform the public that
the company does not employ
union help, but says that such
picketing must not interfere
with deliveries.
In the Stork Club case, the
NLRB ruled that the Hotel and
Restaurant Employees Union
picketed for recognition with
out filing a petition, and in
terfered with deliveries to the
restaurant.
Stork Club proprietor Sher-
man Billingsley said in New
York he is elated by the deci-
sion and would press his pend
