Dismissal Motion Under Advisement Salem-UPft-A panel of three circuit judges took under ad visement Thursday a motion to dismiss a labor union suit seeking to bar the state from using convict labor in the construction of the new wom en's prison. The judges heard argu ments by the stale and an at torney for two union officials over whether the unions have the power to sue the state. The argument hinged on the issue of the sovereign immunity of the state against suit. Asst. Atty. Gen. Collas Marsters argued that ' nly the legislature has the power to grant authority for a suit against the state. Attorney Donald S. Rich ardson, who is representing the union officials, countered that the suit was one to force the three members of the state board of control to abide by a statute which restricts the use of inmate labor to that which would not compete with free labor. Miller Opposed to House Bill 1288 County Judge Earl Miller went on record Thursday as opposed to HB 1288 when he was queried by telephone from Salem. Explaining his stand, Miller said he believed that unions hold an important place in American society, and are necessary in certain fields but he was opposing this particu lar legislation in the belief that responsibility would be taken away from the people's elected officers if the measure passed. The legislation permits pub lic employees to join labor or ganizations for the purposes of representation and collec tive bargaining with employ ers but prohibits employees from striking or recognizing picket lines of labor organiz ations while in the perform ance of official duties. It is labeled "Permissive legislation." wmm PEDESTRIKHS 1 BICYCLES MQTOR-UKltLNl CYCLES flu A iWlfe HITCHHIKE TO MAYO CLINIC Arthur A.
