According to several locul wholesale merchant sources, tho Trades council, an AFL orgunl zation Including tho Teamsters' union, has notified all firm hir ing union labor that they may not sell or deliver merchandise to tho Bratton concern. The al ternatlve, it was reported, will be a walkout of the firm's union employes. The ban prohibits the tourist hotel management from trans porting its own merchandise even though it may be purchased at supply house doors as welt as halting union truck driven from delivering goods to the cabins. The notification was confirm ed Friday by union officials who said that under a ruling of the supremo court of the United States, the action is classed as a secondary boycott and entiroly legal. The disputo arose last month over the construction of a new settlement of tourist cabins on Highway 66 south of the city and north of the Weed highway junction. The building is being done by P. L. Kemp, a Klamath builder, for Willard T. Mann, operator of Bratton's. Shortly after the project was started, Kemp was declared un fair by the BTC for allegedly hiring non-union labor and pickets placed before the con struction site as well as in front of Bratton's on Oregon avenue. Mann declined to comment Friday on the union action. Kemp could not be reached for a statement. Unionists said that no negoti ations nad yet taken place to ward a settlement of the issue since the squabble began.
