C. 35 Labor, Management Collide Over Bill Salem - (UPI) - Labor and management bumped heads here Tuesday on whether an anti-strikebreaker law for Oregon would be advisable or even legal. George Brown of the Ore gon AFL-CIO and othen labor witnesses said It would keep undesirable elements out and improve labor management relations. Brown said it was legal and successful in eight states that have it. William Lubcrsky of As sociated Oregon Industries and other management wit nesses replied it would weigh the bargaining scales in favor of labor and harm currently good labor-manageincnt rela tions in Oregon. Lubcrsky said the proposed Oregon law was clearly unconstitutional. United Continental . Value Line . Variable Wellington . Bid Ask 12 57 13 7S 11.01 1203 1 1 .09 13.10 13 19 142S 14 94 18.13 923 10.
