WAGNER BOARD BACKS RELEASE OF 2 WORKERS Upholds Silk Association in Discharging Pair from City Mill. Decision of the Indianapolis regional labor board against the Employee's Mutual Benefit Association of the Real Silk Hosiery Mills, in its effort to discharge two Real Silk employes, has been reversed by the nation labor board in Washington, which sustained the position of the employe's association. Mrs. Nellie Savage and Estel Taylor, employes, had been discharged by the association last fall following accusations of using company time to disseminate union propaganda. The regional board found the punishment too severe and ordered them returned to work. This was never done, the assoeiation immediately appealing the decision to the national board. In explaining the reversal. Senator Robert F. Wagner, chairman of the national board, pointed to new evidence which had not bren mad available to the regional labor board as the reason for the decision. William Baum. Real Silk personnel manager, explained that when s he regional decision was rendered he was in Europe and there was insufficient time and opportunity to prepare for the regional hearing. He stated that the employe’s association was not a company union in the usual sense of the word and pointed out that, in a recent election, workers at Real Silk had selected the association in preference to the Federation of Hosiery Workers union by a vote of more than two to one. Charles E, Leeke. employe and president of the association, expressed gratification at the decision and stated that personally he was satisfied with the present employee's association set-up. He pointed out that both employer and employe had equal representation on the board of the association; and that in case of a tie vote on any question, the matter was submitted to an arbitration committee selected by and satisfactory to both sides.
