NLRB Rules Some
Picketing Violates
Taft-Hartley Act
WASHINGTON, (JP) — The Na
tional Labor Relati o n s Board
ruled for the first time Wednesday
that picketing to force employers
to hire only union members vio
lates the Taft-Hartley Act.
The unanimous decision of the
l
board was reached after the Su
preme Court declared that even
peaceful picketing “has aspects
which are more than speech, and
may therefore be restricted, at
least where it is undertaken for
an unlawful objective.”
The ruling was made in two
cases. One involved the AFL
Building and Construction Trades
Council of Denver and Henry j
Shore, a highway construction
contractor of Littleton, Colo.
The other case involved Local
16 of the CIO Longshoremen,
headed by Harry Bridges, and the
Juneau Spruce Corp., of Juneau,
Alaska. |
The board said the Denver
building trades council and two
of its ailiated local unions vio
alted the law by picketing one oi
Shore’s projects because he failed;
to hire only union members.
In the Juneau case, the union;
had picketed the company to force
it to employ longshoremen to load
lumber barges in Alaska. This ac-,
tion came after the board had de
termined in a jurisdictional dis
pute that the Bridges’ union had
no legal right to have this work
assigned to its members. The j
loading had been done by mem-!
bers of the CIO Woodworkers Un
ion.
In both cases the unions were
ordered to stop such picketing.!
Board orders are enforceable in
the courts.
The Taft-Hartley Act outlaws
the closed shop, in which only un- J
ion members may be employed.

Three Top Reds
Arrested By FBI
In Pittsburgh
PITTSBURGH, <JP) — The top
communist in western Pennsyl
vania and two men identified as
his aides were arrested yesterday
on sedition charges filed by a
Pittsburgh judge.
City Detectives arrested Steve
Nelson, chairman of the commun
ist party of western Pennsylvania,
Andrew Onda, and James Dolsen,
all of Pittsburgh.
The charges were filed by Judge
Michael A. Musmanno of Alle
gheny County, Democratic candi
date for lieutenant governor of
Pennsylvania, who has been wag
ing a spirited campaign against
communism.
All three men have been identi
fied as communists by Matthew
Cvetie, Pittsburgh man who posed
as a communist for nine years
while on the payroll of the FBI.
He named the men as communists
while testifying before the House
Un-American activities committee.
The three men were arrested
under a 1939 state law which pro
vides a fine of $10,000, 20 years
imprisonment or both, for taking
action aimed at overthrowing the
government by force.
Jerry Lomen, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Ralph Lomen, arrived with
Pan American to spend a few
months here. He is employed by
the Mansen-Osberg Construction
Co., and enjoying seeing his many
Nome friends.
Broad Controls
For President
Sure To Pass
WASHINGTON, </P), The House
gave quick approval today to com
promise legislation handing Presi
dent Truman broad powers to con
trol the domestic economy and
curb war-born inflation.
There was no roll call on pas
sage, only a shout of ayes. Before
that vote, a motion to send the bill
back to committee was defeated
155 to 20 on a standing vote.
The House action sent the bill
on to the Senate where leaders
aimed to get it to President Tru
man before nightfall.
A direct result of the Korean
fighting, the home-front mobiliza
tion measure would permit wage
and price controls, consumer ra
tioning, penalties for hoarding,
and real estate and consumer
credit controls.
To spur defense production, it
also provides for allocation of
scarce industrial materials, prior
ities for defense orders, govern
ment loans and loan-guarantees
and the requisitioning of plants
and equipment.
A compromise between separ
ate bills passed by the Senate and
the House, it was whipped into fi
nal shake late yesterday by a con
ference committee of the two
branches.
The agreement was reached just
about six weeks after Mr. Truman
asked Congress on July 19 for
power to combat inflation and
speed production for an expanded
military program.
F. B. I. NEEDS SIX
MILLION DOLLARS
WASHINGTON, (>P)—President
Truman asked Congress today for
$6,000,000 for the FBI because of
its increased activity due to “the
changed international situation.**
He gave no details of how the
money is to be spent—whether for
employment of additional agents
or how. In the ordinary routine,
Mr. Truman makes only a request
for the total. Details are supplied
to Congress later by the budget
bureau or the agency for which
the appropriation is asked.
