Not Available To
Communists
i _
WASHINGTON, (A*)—CIO local
unions were told yesterday that
national labor relations board ser
vices will be barred to them ui#
less every member of the 51-man
CIO executive board swehrs he is
not a Communist.
Similarly, no AFL union can pe
tition for a collective bargaining
election or bring an unfair labor
practice charge against an em
ployer unless each of the 15 mem
bers of the federation’s executive
council files a non-Communist af
fidavit.*
Robert N. Denham, NLRB gen
eral counsel, handed down this de
cision as he issued the affidavit
forms required under terms of the
Taft-Hartley labor law which goes
into full effect Friday.
The forms, Denham told report
ers, must be signed “by all AFL
and CIO international and local
officers’’ if those organizations
want to use the board and its fa
cilities.
‘‘The chain must be complete,
from the top down,” the NLRB
general counsel declared.
In the case of the CIO, one mem
ber of the executive board is a
self-avowed Communist. He is
Ben Cold of New York, president
of the United fur and leather
workers union.
When told of this by reporters,
Gold said only, “the alternatives,
if there are any, are obvious.”
As for the AFL, there have been
reports that John L. Lewis, al
though a vigorous anti-Commun
ist, > might withhold his affidavit
as a matter of principle. As presi
dent of the united mine workers
and an AFL vice-president, Lewis
is a link in the AFL chain.
Although several of the larger
CIO unions have indicated they
plan to snub the reorganized
NLRB, many of the others have
reached no policy decision on this
issue or on the Taft-Hartley act
itself. There are 40 CIO unions.
