the move “is just another attempt
to organize behind our picket
lines.”
“We will combat this attempt
with all the means at our com
mand,” he said, “it will be up to
the NLRB to decide whether an
other union can claim employees
of a campony when there are no
employees working.”
Thomas P. Graham, regional
NLRB director, said a field exam-,
iner will be assigned to determine
if an election is warranted.
In the event that an election is
ordered, the CIO stewards’ union
presumably would be barred from
the ballot because NLRB machin

whose leaders have failed to sign
non-communist affidavits under
the Taft-Hartley act.
Hugh Bryson, head of the CIO
stewards, has refused to sign such

Councilman Osborne called on
the City Clerk to read a new or
dinance which would repeal two
existing ordinances which was a
suggested remedy. This new ord
nance would keep the closing hour ;
of midnight for all bars, as it is at ;
present but would order all liquor
premises cleared not later than
12:30 a.m.

on the invitation of the mayor in
which liquor dealers present took :
part, it was hoped that the new

It was acknowledged that the
