Text: 22 The affirmative part of the Board's order requires that Local 138 in conjunction with the Regional Director for the Second Region and subject to his approval, set up a nondiscriminatory hiring and referral system. In addition, the union is required to keep and make available to the Regional Director records showing the operation of the hiring hall and referral system. Although the Board has broad power to fashion remedies appropriate to the needs of each case, National Labor Relations Board v. Seven-Up Bottling Co., 344 U.S. 344, 346-347, 73 S.Ct. 287, 288, 97 L.Ed. 377 (1953), it may not require a union to set up a hiring hall. Local 357, International Bhd. of Teamsters v. NLRB, 365 U.S. 667, 676-677, 81 S.Ct. 835, 840, 6 L.Ed.2d 11 (1961). We have granted enforcement of the Board's order prohibiting discrimination in the operation of the hiring hall, and this we think, is as far as the Board may go. Representatives of the Board should not be injected into the procedures by which the union, in conjunction with employers, establishes a referral system. Therefore, we deny enforcement of the provision requiring that the union set up a hiring hall. In view of the pattern of continuing discrimination in the operation of its hiring hall, however, we think that the Board was justified in directing the union to keep full records of its operations and make them available to the Board and its representative. Clause 2(a) of the Board's order is deleted. Clauses A(2) (b)-(c) are modified as follows: 23 (b) Keep permanent records of its hiring and referral operation which will be adequate to disclose fully the basis on which each referral is made: 24 (c) Upon request of the Regional Director of the Board or his agents, make available for inspection, at all reasonable times, any records relating in any way to the hiring and referral system. 25 We grant enforcement of clauses A(2) (b)-(c), so modified, and clause A(2) (d) of the Board's order. 26 So ordered.
