Increased appropriations In fu

The bill finances the army, the
navy, the air force, the national

NRLB Ruling Says
Printers Violated
Taft-Hartley Act
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29. UP
The International Typograph
ical union today weighed whether
to appeal lor its deieat in me iirst
major newspaper case under the
Taft-Hartley act.
The National Labor Relations
board yesterday found the AFL
printers' union guilty of violating
the labor Inw. The board held that
the ITU tried to force on publish
ers the outlawed closed shop,
through a "continuing threat to
strike."
Two unanimous decisions were
handed down. In each, the NLUB
directed the union to stop trying
to compel employers to "discrimi
nate" against any employes.
One case arose from ITU's 22-
month strike against Chicago
newspapers, settled last momh.
The other, In which ITU was held
guilty of unfair labor practices,
was filed by the American News
paper Publishers association, in
behalf of its 800 members.
May Serve At Guide
The broad pattern of the deci
sions, board officials said, may be
expected to guide the NLRB in
other pending cases involving at
least one newspaper and groups
of commercial printers In six cit
ies. These decisions will be forth
coming shortly, an official pre
dicted. At one time, not less than 15
newspapers were being struck
simultaneously as ITU pressed Its
campaign.
Gerhard P. Van Arkel, ITU
general counsel, told reporters the
nig union has a "complete right
to appeal" to the United Slates
circuit court. But he said this must
be discussed by union officials,
who are now widely scattered.
Otherwise, neither he nor the
chief counsel for the publishers'
association, Elisha Hanson, had
Immediate comment. Both wanted
to make closer studies of the
rulings.
ITU has been under a federal
district court Injunction since
March 27, 1948, forbidding the
disputed bargaining practices
pending NLRB's ruling. The in
junction now will be lifted.
Van Arkel said no present ITU
contracts will be affected by the
board's action.

sight. Two more shovels and
compressed air hammers joined
the seooplng-out operation which
allowed workers to get to the
base of (he pipe.
An oxygen line dangled In the
pipe near Bobby's head and kept
pumping until rescuers with cold
chisels and tin snippers cut
through to the lad at 5:42 p.m.
Master Mechanic M.R. Miller
of the fire department held Bob
by's hand to comfort him as the
section of pipe was removed.
Miller then lifted the youngster
and handed him swiftly but gent
ly to Police Lt. Otto Ludwig.
Bobby was kicking. He holler
ed, "Daddy." The civ was al
most lost in the roar of some
2.000 spectators who had remain
ed silent until those pressing
against police ropes saw the
child move.
Workers had dropped a small
rope down the pipe and succeed
ed In working It onto Bobby's
wrist. They did not attempt to
pull him up. They feared the
rope might slip off or Bobby
might be injured by any upward
movement in the narrow confin
es of the pipe.
Bobby's body first lodged
about 14 feet down in the pipe.
The cistern had never been used
by the Gow's. They did not know
whether there was water at the
bottom. Bobby continued to slide
downward as the work progress
ed. He was standing on the dry
bottom when rescuers reached
him at a depth of 18 feet.
Pro-Communists Target
Of Big CIO Convention
(Continued from Page One)
throw at least three unions out of
the organization. The left-wing
unions scheduled to get the boot
are the United Electrical Work
ers, the Mine, Mill and Smelter
Workers and the Farm Equipment
Workers. The three have a com
bined membership of about a half
million.
In addition to these three
unions, which probably have been
most critical of the leadership of
CIO President Murray, eight or
nine others are reported lined up
in the left-wing.
The Farm Equipment Workers
union yesterday announced at
Chicago it had voted 84 per cent
in iavor or merging its members
with the United Electrical Work
ers, the CIO's third largest af-
iinate. ine ft: claims 55,000
members 40.000 of them in In
ternational Harvester company
plants.
Because the FE flaunted a d
rectlve from the national CTO a
year ago to join the right wing
United Auto Workers, it had
reason to expect being disciplined
at next week's convention. The FE
lorfelled Us right to a delegation
In the convention by becoming 11
months in arrears in its per capita
ihx io me national organization.
Allan S. Haywood, CIO vice
president, said the CIO will not
recognize the merger and that
the UE could not gain larger con
vention representation by the
move, even if it pays additional
per capita taxes for the FE mem
bers absorbed.
"The Jurisdiction belones to the
auto workers," Haywood said.

Failure To Shoot
Elk Is Bother
To Lost Hunter
"Getting lost didn't bother me
too much what really hurt was
having to let two big elk bulls go
without trying a shot, knnvfir.tf I
couldn't pack one of them out
alone."
Jim Byril, local elk hunter, was
still shaking his head in chagrin
today, following his night out
aione in the Long Ridge country
after becoming separated from
the other two members of the
hunting party.
Byrd said he became lost when
he went "one ridge too far" while
hunting with his son, Ira Byrd,
and Red Eckhart, both sheriff's
deputies.
First thing I knew, there was
a mountain between us and I
couldn't find Ira and Red," he
said.
After trying unsuccessfully to
locate his fellow hunters, the
elder Byrd constructed a bark
lean-to against a large stump,
build a fire to dry his clothing
and went to sleep.
HI-.? first sight of help was a
small plane piloted by George
Phelps, Roseburg airport man
ager, who indicated the line Byrd
was to follow. Byrd's son had at
tempted earlier in the day to spot
his father from the air, but was
unsuccessful because of the dense
early morning fog.
Byrd said he finally heard a
shot and, by exchanged answer
ing shots with his rescuers, finally
met the search party. He said
after 24 hours without eating, he
was "mighty glad" to see Jerry
Rust walking toward him with
food.
Aiding in the search were Rust,
Ira Byrd, Phelps, Red Eckhart,
and Dallas Bennett.

THE
Meier & Frank Union
Charges Arc Published
PORTLAND, Oct. 29 UP)
Tne story ol a union charge
against the Meier and Frank de
partment store was published
here today after a controversy
about It was r carried - in - Time
magazine.
The AFL Retail Clerk's union
accused the store of attempting
to coerce workers not to join the
union, and filed an' unfair labor
practices charge with the Nation
al Labor Relations board. A hear
ing on the charge denied by
Meier & Frank was held here
Sept. 6-15, . - ; .
The hearing was not covered
by Portland newspapers, and
Monroe Sweetland charged in the
Oregon Democrat that the story
had been suppressed for the sake
of an advertiser. The newspapers
said the .story, had simply been
overlooked by reporters.
Because of the Oregon Demo
crat's small circulation, the Inci
dent only came, into general
knowledge when Time's current
issue recounted Sweetland's
charges.'
The Oregonlan- published the
story of the Meier & Frank AFL
dispute today, without mention
ing the Time article.
The NLRB hasn't decided yet
whether the store tried to coerce
clerks or not. A decision will be
handed down after attorneys for
both sides present briefs.
