MARINE COOKS & STEWARDS
Anti-Communist Group
86 Senaca St.
Employees in the Steward’s de
partment of ships engaged in the
Alaska trade do not wish to be
represented further by the Marine
Conks and S eward's Union be
cause that Union is Communist j
dominated and because the Alaska
trade has special characteristics
and problems and should be es- J
tablished as a separate labor unit.
A pe ition for the establishment
of such a unit has been summarily
rejected by the Seattle Regional
Director for the National Labor
Relations Board. No substantial
reasons were assigned. We are
asking the Board to review the
decision of the Regional Director.
Seventy-live per cent of the af
fected employes have freely and
voluntarily in writing, requested
representation by the Sailor’s
Union of the Pacific, a distinctly
non-communist organization. They
consider it their democratic right
to select their own bargaining
agent. Their names are not made
public for fear of retaliatory acts,
but the original signatures are
available for inspection by any in
terested, 'responsible person.
In the interest of healthy, non
communist labor organization and
in the interest of Alaska shipping,
we ask you to investigate and sup
port our case. Alaska is our out
post of defense against Russia, and
crews of Alaska ships we feel
should not be members of an or
ganization that is communistically
dominated, as they play too im
portant a roll in the national de
fense of the United States of
America.

Fliers Escape From
Plane Explosion
_ i
ANCHORAGE, r/P> — Two 65th j
fighter squadron officers narrow
ly escaped disaster yesterday by
parachuting from their plane after
a “flash” explosion.
Witnesses said they leaped from
a height of 600 feet after a black
puff of smoke from their plane,
which was believed due to a gaso
line leak.
The two were Capt. Herman E.
King and Lt. John Ellis. Ellis es
caped with minor bruises. King
was burned about the face and
hands and suffered a possible leg
fracture. Ae hel'cop er picked him
up and flew him to the 103rd gen
eral hospital.
Both fliers landed about a quar- |
ter of a mile from where the plane j
plummeted at the end of the run- i
way. The plane had taken off only ;
shortly before the explosion.
DEATH KNOT FOR SNAKE
SYDNEY, Austrlia, {&)—A dead
brown snake found at Benjeroop,
near Swan Hill (Victoria), had ap
parently been strangled by its own
coils. W. Davey of Benjeroop j
found the head and about u foot of
the snake’s body protruding from
| i*s hole. He dug out the body and
found the snake tied in a tight
knot just below the ground. The
snake apparently had tucked its ,
head through its coils when it be
gan to move out of its hole and
the herder it had struggled, the
tighter it had pulled the death
kno.t *!
