Printers Charged With Violating Act 11 — j! Taft-Hartley Law Violation Charaed s I Chicago. Jan. 7 —(UP)—-The national labor relations board drew up a list of names, dates and places today to reinforce its charges that the printers’ union violated the Taft-Hartley law in a nationwide dispute with newspaper publishers. Counsel for the NLRB drew up a bill of particulars to present at a hearing which resumed today. The case is the first involving unfair labor practices on a nationwide i scale ever filed under either the I Wagner act or the Taft-Hartlev | i law. ; The case promises to develop I into tne first major test of the j Taft-Hartley law It also may j furnish a key to settlement of printers’ strikes against 13 newspapers in six cities The strikes • have idled 1,711 typesetters, and have affected newspapers with a

I total circulation of 3.088.471 copies, j Specifically, the striking Interj national Typographical Union i (AFL) is charged with refusing to | borgain in good faith by refusing j to sign formal contracts with pub- | lishers. By avoiding such contracts i the union seeks to maintain its I closed shops, which are prohibited I by the Taft-Hartley law. | The NLRB also charges the j union with encouraging "slow- | downs.” exacting payment for work : not performed, and with trying to I coerce employers and employes. | The charges are based on comj plaints filed with the NLRB last : November by the American NewsI paper Publishers’ Association, representing 800 newspapers across i the country. The case also involves additional! | complaints filed by the Island I Daily Press Association, represent- i ing more than too paper- in _a| states, and the Southern Publishers I Association, whose membership in-1 eludes 90 percent of the dailies in i 15 southern states. The hearing began Dec. 9 in Indianapolis hut was recessed after a six-hour session pending a dei cision on legal technicalities rais|ed by the union. On Dec. 17 the union was overruled by the NLRB at Washington On Dec 22 the complaint -was broadened to inebwie the charges that the union encouraged slowdowns and exacted unwarranted payment. The union’s defense is based on the contention that the NLRB has no jurisdiction in the case, and that the Taft-Hartley law is unconstitutional. The hearings will provide the trial examiner with evidence for an intermediate report to the NLRB The NLRB then may accept the

trial examiner’s finding#, ausend them or reject them. If it finds the union guilty it can issue a “stop” order to prohibit it from continuing the alleged violaJ tions. j The hearings were resumed here against a background of strikes I against all six of Chicago s major daily papers. The strike is in its ■ 44th day. Chicago’s struck papers and those elsewhere have continued publication with photo-engraved editions since the strike started The Chicago Federation of labor offered last night to use, its ‘‘best efforts and good offices” to end the strike against the Chicago newspapers. The offer was contained in a 1 resolution adopted at the month!' meeting of the federation. 0 — Divorce Awarded In Circuit Court Elnora Essex was awarded al divorce from Lester Essex in cir-l cuit court yesterday.

"This system relates the selec- j tivity of the consumer to the qual- '• ity and quantity of the meat he I gets.” Brannan said. ‘‘A man who I is willing to eat hamburger re-1 ceives more pounds of meat than a I person who insists on T-bone I steak.” He =aid the British system would be too difficult to police and in- 1 '-■■'-res price controls which con-' gress has indicated it will not ap- 1 prove.
