E PORTLAND, Ore., June 20 (AP) A spokesman for the Montgomery Ward Ic Co. store said Friday the management unc renrfv to onen the store as soon as pickets were withdrawn and mercnanaise was op livcered. Wards' Portland store was blamed by a National Labor Relations Doara examiner, George Bokat, yestcrda; for a .riko th-r A decision received yesterday by Wards and by the striking AtL, w arenousemcu and Retail Clerks unions from the Seattle NLRB office held that the store had failed to bar gain collectively. Th. store was ordered to offer reinstatement without pre judice to all employes, ine ex aminer also directed the store n ha run in with the unions in good faith on issues in contro versy. The management ex pressed willingness to resume negotiations after opening the store. Unions struck December 7 for higher wages, union shop ami nthrr concessions. The store nnomtorl hehtnd nickel lines until May 3 wnen ciosea ue cause of inability to get de livery of merchandise. The Ward officers said the would reinstate all omnlnvpt but asserted that the decision did not grant back pay to any workers. The unions in terpreted the decision as grant ing back pay to a small cate gory of strikers. James Landye, attorney for hn unions, said the order 1 thwarted an attemDt by non- j striking employes to bring ! about a reopening on tne pasis of an agreement wun a new storewide organization rather than with the designated bar gaining agencies. However Mrs. Dyon Soule, chairman of em ninvpa Mpkinff to reoDen the store, said the effort would con tinue regardless of tne decision. The decision held that Wards "went through the motions of collective bargaining without the spirit and sincerity required by the (National Labor Rela tions) act" and "entered nego tiations with a preconceived and inflexible determination not to explore fairly and fully the possibilities of reaching an agreement.

Another would require manufac turers to cut deliveries to deal ers by a fixed percentage. In any case, tho rubber conserved would be kept In a pool to be allocated by tho government lor defense uses in an emergency.
