Boycott Rule
Broadened By
Labor Board

The National Labor. Relations
Board, in unanimous decision, has
held that it is not necessary to pro-
duce evidence that subcontractor
in the construction industry is en-
gagged Sin commerce" in order to
bar picketing of the job site under
the secondary boycott ban in the
Taft Hartley Act.
Overriding Trial Examiner c. w.
Whittemore, the NLRB held that
the Sheet Metal Workers had en-
gagged in an illegal secondary boy
colt because picketing of nom
union subcontractor halted all work
at the construction site.
The trial examiner had dis
missed the complaint against the
union on the ground that there was
no showing that the subcontrac-
tor was engaged Gin commerce or
in an industry affecting COM
merce"-the language used in 1859
amendments to the Hartley
Act Tightening restrictions on So
called secondary boycotts.
In its decision, the NLRB said
the unions actions would have been
illegal before the 1859 amendments.
Since the changes were made by
Congress to close "loopholes" in the
law, the board declared, the ex-
aminer's decision would 'thwart"
the intent of the legislators.

HEAD OF PILOTS BACKS
IL. S. AID FOR AIRP0RTS

legislation as minimum" but feel
that it falls short in relation to
known and practicable needs. .
Saying that aircraft technology
has made obsolete the facilities at
many airports, the head of the
14,000-member pilots organization
observed:
eve can complete $3.50 miles
of four-lane highways and 184
miles of six-lane highways a year,
but it requires practically a ma
tional emergency to secure an
other 1000 feet of concrete for an
airport runway"
Sayen said almost half of the
nations publicly owned airports
need immediate improvement or ex-
pansion at calculated cost of $1.1
billion over five years, half of it
coming from the federal govern
ment.
Needed facilities, he said, in
clude runways of adequate length,
instrument landing systems, ap-
rroach lights, surveillance radar,
runway visual range equipment,
and better runway lighting.
Only two years were required,
Sayen testified, for jet aircraft to
become the accepted method of
travel" for medium and long dis
lance flights. More than 200 large
jet transports have been placed
in scheduled air carrier service
since late 1858, and more than
800 turbojet airliners will be in
domestic service by the end of
1861, he predicted.
Airport facilities which had not
previously kept pace with the
growth of commercial aviation
were rendered even more obsoles-
cent by jet transports, Sayen said.
Pointing out that average fed
eral aid to airports for the past
10 years has been at the rate of
$3.50 million per year, the ALPA
head contrasted that with the to-
tai projected cost of Dulles Init.
Airport at Chantilly, Va. - S85
million and the 1929 billion
spent last year in the federal high
way aid program.
when We can have a S4 billion
bodybuilding program, 80 percent
federally financed, $75 million
or more airport aid bill is certain
ly not unreasonable" he said.

Work Progressing
On Jackson State
College Housing

Held to a minimum by recent
rains, work was progressing again
nicely this week on the first unit
of a five-unit housing development
for Jackson State College male stu
dents. According to the plans, each
unit will be five stories high and
will be capable of housing 200 men.
Automatic elevators and optional
air-conditioning will feature each
unit. The matron's quarters and
lounges will be unconditional.
The mems dormitories will be locat-
ed on the corner of Lynch and Prem
tiss Streets. This site, a five-acre
plot, was secured by the College
several years ago and was origin
ally seriously considered as the
location of a new girls dormitory.
The site of the new girls dormi-
tory will be the area adjacent to
Campbell College on the west and
extending eastward to Craig Street.
The property extends to the Jim
Hill-Sallie Reynolds campus on the
north. Plans for this facility are
complete and advertisement for
bids should begin in a few days.
Both projects are to be constructed
on special legislative apprcpria-
lions and government loans.
During the 1961-62 term, men
will occupy the recently-completed
faculty and staff apartments west

Back-Door Work
Law Try Beaten

Montpelier, VT. - A back-door
attempt to enact a so-called fright
to-work" law here has been defeat
ed by 147-to-67 vote in the Yer
mont House of Representatives.
Supporters of legislation to ban
union shop agreements tried un-
successfully to tack a "right-to-
work amendment on a labor
backed Fair Employment Practices
bill which was before the House.
When the amendment failed, most
of them voted against the basic
FEPC bill, helping defeat it by 105
to sc.
The attempt to clear 'right-to-
work" through amendment of the
fair employment bill came after the
deadline for introduction of new
legislation had passed with no
"work" bill having been introduced.
Right to = work" groups have
been active in the state, but the
vote on the amendment showed
them to have less strength in the
House than in the 1859 session of

.Long-Range
Loans Vital

The Kennedy Administrators
foreign aid proposals, combining
unified administration, long-term
funding and a vigorous and intel
ligent new approach" will "go far
toward making the program effect
i've, AFL-CIO Legislative Dir. An
drew j. Biemiller has testified be-
fore the House Foreign Affairs
Committee.
In expressing the AFL-CIO's
full endorsement" of the Kennedy
program, Biemiller read into the
record the text of the resolution
the AFL-CIO Executive Council
had adopted the week before at
its meeting in Unity House, Pa.
The resolution gave labor's "gen-
eral support" to the program and
said the council was particularly
glad" to endorse it because it in
cludes a number of policies which
have been advocated in the past by
| llS hT L-AtO.
Biemiller told the committee that
the Presidents plan for unified ad-
ministration and making develop
ment loan funds available on a
/ long-term basis was welcome" to
! labor. He also asserted that for
eign aid must be more intelligently
applied" and "must be tailored to
the real needs of the recipient coun-
try"
81 submit there is nothing new
or novel about the Presidents en-
phasis en- long-term commitment"
he added.
No Partisan Undertaking
ut recognizes the fundamental
necessity for assuring both other
nations and our own that we are
engaging in a continuing associa-
ton that is not subject to the
changing tides of political life, not
a partisan undertaking.
"The Presidents proposal
fulfills exactly the purpose of that
/ standard contract phrase that an
agreement is binding on heirs, as
signees and successors 1t pro-
poses exactly the same kind of con-
tract Congress has repeatedly made
with the several states, as recently
as passage of the highway bill :.
No state could afford to enter into
long-term undertakings such as ma
tional highways if it expected an
nually that the axe might fall and
the project disappear.
"The nations receiving our aid
must have the same feeling of con-
fidence. They should not be tempt
ed to use loans and grants for
shallow, short-run projects for fear
that long-term plan might have
to be abandoned in mid-course.
Conceding that money has been
wasted and serious. mistakes have
been made in the past, Biemiller
flatly said that the waste has been
less and the mistakes far less
spectacular than the critics have
charged" Human frailties and
judgment being what they are, he
went on, there undoubtedly will be
mistakes in the future.
