Memorandum

5
The Board properly refused to give effect to the aborted settlement agreements between the charging parties and the respondent.

6
A finding of a section 8(b)(1)(A) violation does not require actual proof of intent to influence the exercise of section 7 rights.  The Board's inferences concerning the "natural foreseeable consequences of the conduct" were adequately supported by the record.  See Lummus Co. v. NLRB, 339 F.2d 728, 734 (D.C.Cir.1964).  See also Teamsters Local 357 v. NLRB, 365 U.S. 667, 675 (1961);  Radio Officers' Union v. NLRB, 347 U.S. 17, 51 (1954).

7
Accordingly, the petition for review is denied and the cross-application for enforcement is granted.
