- PROVIDENCE, R. I., Nov. 30 (U. P.).—A Superior Court Judge ruled today that the' United Textile Workers of America contract with the Committee for Industrial Organiza- . tion, under which an estimated 350,000 textile workers were enrolled, is invalid. Judge Charles A. Walsh referred to the contract signed by John L. Lewis, C. I. O. chairman, and Francis Gorman, U. T. W. A. president, in March, 1937, under which C. I. O.'s Textile Workers’ Organizing Committee was authorized to manage the textile organizing campaign and to decide when and how the U. T. W. A. should be reorganized. * “It is fair from reading the contract to deduce that it was the intention of the parties to said contract that the U. T. W. A. should, in effect, be dissolved,” the court held. “No opporfunity was given to the local unions fo express their wishes in the matter and hence it is impossible to say whether or not at least nine unions would dissent.” Since the U. T. W. A. constitution provides that the organization cannot be dissolved while there are

‘ nine dissenting| unions or locals,

Judge Walsh said, the contract is invalid. He also questioned the

« authority of Mr. Gorman to execute

the contract. | Judge Walsh’s ruling was handed down in an injunction suit brought by C. I. O. against Joseph Sylvia, ousted T. W. O| C. organizer, and the Providence - Woonasquatucket Woolen and Worsted District Council. The dispute dated from last June. ed

Revival of Peace

Move Indicated

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 (U. P).— A high Administration official indicated today that President Roosevelt might act before spring to revive peace talks between the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations. | "Mr. Roosevelt| and his labor advisers were represented as hopeful, however, that A. F. of L. and C. I. O. leaders themselves would resume negotiations without outside interference or Presidential intervention. Meanwhile Frank J. Fell Jr, vice president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, today suggested to the Senate subcommittee studying i stems that incentive taxation be extended to corporations maintaining employment beyond normal levels during periods of business stress. The industrialist preceded President John L. Lewis of the C. I. O,, who is scheduled to appear before the committee later today.

10 Ti

DETROIT, Nov. 30 (U. P).—A strike of 50 men in one department of. the Chrysler Corp. Plymouth plant today paralyzed three of Detroit’s largest automobile manufactories and threw 14,700 men out of

work. Body handlers at the Plymouth plant refused to work at the start of the day shift, reportedly because they were refused a salary increase. Shutdown of this department-forced the entire Plymouth plant to close, and company officials sent 6000 dayshift workers home. With the Plymouth plant shut, the Briggs body factory, which supplies Plymouth, was forced to close and an additional 7000 men were sent home. The Plymouth shutdown affected 1700 workers at the Chrysler Corp.'s Dodge division at noon, and a company spokesman said an additional 1600 workers would be turned away when they reported for the late day shift, which would bring to 3300 the number of idle Dodge workers. The strike was started by members of the United Automobile Workers Union. It was reported the strike was unauthorized. Neither international nor local union officials would comment other than to report that negotiations were under way with the Plymouth plant management to settle the dispute.

Disperse Throng of 700 With Tear Gas

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Nov. 30 (U. P.).—A throng of 700 persons stormed the doors of the exclusive downtown Kansas City Club last night and shattered windows in sympathy with employees who are on strike.

Downtown theatergoers rushed to the scene adding to the confusion of the street battle, which lasted almost half an hour, The marchers, all members of American Federation of Labor locals, had held a rally at their headquarters and marched in a body to the club, athletic and social haunt of business and society folk

‘CULTURAL TIES

v

FOR AMERICAS NEWU. S. GOAL

Move Viewed as Part of ~ Drive to Strengthen Democracies.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 (U. P.). —Diplomatic quarters today interpreted the Administration’s program to solidify economic, scientific and cultural relations among American republics as the beginning of a drive to strengthen democracy against foreign ideologies in the Western Hemisphere. . The program, submitted to President Roosevelt by the Interdepartmental Committee on Co-operation with American Republics, is designed to “render closer and more effective” the relations between the United States and the 20 LatinAmerican republics. Completed after six months’ work it will be submitted to Congress with recommendations for an immediate appropriation of nearly one million dollars for the program, Viewed as Significant The appropriation would be spent by governmental departments and agencies in making available to the other countries advanced technical information and assistance in agiicultural, commercial and scientific fields, and to enhance cultural relations through freer exchange of literature and educational movies. Announcement, of the program was regarded as significant in view of Mr. Roosevelt’s recently enuncialed policy of continental defense. The committee which drew up the program was composed of 13 Government departments and agencies, including the State, Treasury, Interior, Agriculture, Commerce and Labor departments. Acting Secretary of State Sumner Welles was chairman. ‘The proposed program does not comprise direct military or naval cooperative projects. Its possible strategical significance would be indirect, depending on what steps the various countries may take toward future continental defense cooperation.
