MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 13. 1940. LEGALiTY OF LAW 10 CURB PICKETS Oregon Supreme Court to Hear Rearguments Sept. 24 On Books Two Years Br Ptul W. Harvey. Jr. Salem. Sept. 13. After almost two years have elapsed the people of Oregon will find out whether their union control law is constitutional. The state supreme court will hear rearguments September 24 and a decision is expected a month or so later. There have been many legal delays since a three-judge cir cuit court in Portland ruled July 8. 1939. that the law is valid. Most of the delay was caused by principals in the suit who obtained extensions in fil lng briefs Due To Terror Reign The law, which prohibits pick eting or boycotting unless more than half of the employes in. volved are engaged in a labor dispute involving wages, hours or working conditions, was passed as an Initiative in Nov ember. 1938. by 197.771 to 148, 460. The state had just experi enced a reign of labor terrorism In which many labor leaders went to prison. The, AFL. CIO and Railroad Brotherhood contended the law was unconstitutional in that it conflicts with federal labor laws, violates free cress and free speech, and violates the rights of workers to conduct unions. The AFL brought its attor ney, Joseph A. Padway of Wash ington, D. C, to Salem last May 21 to argue its case before the supreme court. Five judges, who aat at that hearing, couldn't agree, so the rehearing before all seven judges was set. Wait Hightr Court The delay in holding the May hearing was caused largely by pending labor cases in the Uni ted States supreme court. Both sidrs wanted to find out what the highest court thought about picketing. The United States supreme court ruled that the picketing laws of California and Alabama were unconstitutional. Labor unions then contended that the Oregon law was similar to those of California and Alabama, and hence should be thrown out. The state, however, denied there was any similarity. m rr .
