NLRB ACCUSED OF ACCEPTING HEARSAY DATA

Labor Board Is Unfair and Pro-C. I. 0., Rep. Hartley Tells House.

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 5.—Charges that the Labor Board is pro-C. 1. O. and demands for Wagner Law

amendment were heard by the House Labor Committee today, fol-

lowing similar amendment resolu- |

tions by the U. Commerce convention here. Rep. Fred A. Hartley Jr. (R. N. J) and Rep. C. Arthur Anderson (D. Mo.) told the House Committee that their amendments were needed chiefly because of the

S. Chamber of |

Board's alleged maladministration

of the law.

The Hartley measure would cre- |

ate a new five-man board with re-

stricted powers, as demanded by the |

A. F LIL.

The Anderson proposal

would

substitute a new three-man board | and separate the present judicial- |

administrative functions. Declares Law Harmful The Chamber of Commerce acted

{

after hearing critical addresses by |

Senator Edward R. Burke (D. Neb.), sponsor of so-called

nullifying |

amendments; Fred I. Kent of New

York, and others. Mr. Kent said the Wagner Law “is undoubtedly the most harmful piece of legislation that has been passed by Congress in the history of the United States.” After voting for repeal of the Wage-Hour Law, the Chamber of Commerce demanded sweeping changes in the wage law, as follows:

Relations Act should be structuraily amended. There should be specific provision for preservation of the right of free speech, both for the employer and for Frequently, an employer has been

helpless between contending organ-

izations. ‘Coercion,’ Target

“An employer should be given an

express right to have the board determine by secret ballot ployees the vepresentation with which he is to deal. For employees’ freedom of choice in selecting representatives there should be complete protection. Employees in exercising their rights should not be exposed to coercion from any source, “There should be removed from | the law the sanction of the closed | shop, which the law not only en-| dorses, but for the accomplishment | of which it provides effective pro-! cedure { “As the Board itself has not clear- | ly separated its activities as prosecutor, investigator and Judge, Con- | gress should provide for use by the Board of independent examiners to hold hearings for fact-finding purposes. All the Board's findings as to facts and all its decisions as to the law should be subject to judicial review.” | At the House hearings Rep. Hart- | ley testified that the Labor Board has caused strikes, acted with prejudice, based decisions on incompetent and hearsay evidence, “acted as C. I. O. organizer,” and discriminated against craft unions. Some committee members com- | plained that his alleged evidence was based chiefly on letters of lawyers who had lost board cases. Rep. Anderson charged “collusion between the present personnel of the NLRB and the C. I. O. for the purpose of creating membership in this organization against the wishes of the workers themselves.” The conduct of the board was alleged to be “worse than any kangaroo traffic court in the land.” Board members, who attended the House hearings, will follow their | critics on the stand, probably late next week. ra — | FUGITIVES OUSTED PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad.

A score of barkers were warming up their superlatives today in preparation for the arrival of the Cole Brothers Circus, which opens here Monday at Southwestern and Keystone Aves... for two days. Per-

carloads of this famous herbal med- |

icine have been shipped to Indian- |

apolis alone during the past few months, while druggists from every section of Indiana report that Retonga is doing more good than any medicine they have ever handled. In Indianapolis heartfelt praise is heard on every hand; for instance, Mrs. Ida Bolser, 1013 S. Meridian St., for thirty-eight years a wellknown resident of this city, tells this happy experience with the celebrated medicine:

“All my troubles seem to have started with a severe cold many years ago, and for the last ten years I was in such miserable condition every nerve in my body seemed affected. Pains, sharp as knives, would flash all over my body till I would cry aloud irom sheer torture. My knees and limbs were worst. Shooting pains would dart from my knees to my ankles and these joints would swell and hurt till it was almost unbearable. My knees felt like they didn't want to bear my weight and it was hard for me to get around. Lately these same pains began to affect my arms and shoulders. Perhaps this torture was from the acids and poisonous wastes in my system from constipation and sour indigestion, for I had

to take a jpsative nearly every night

LUDLOW CITES RAIL LABOR'S WAR STAND

Times Special WASHINGTON, May 5.—Citing the fact that the railway brotherhoods again have gone on record in support of his war referendum amendment, Rep. Louis Ludlow (D. Ind.) today inserted their resolution in the Congressional Record, together with a description of the part labor plays in war. “Labor has a vital interest in the peace movement,” Rep. Ludlow | commented. “No other element of | our complex civilization is quite so! deeply concerned in the elimination | of the causes of war as the toilers | of our land. “It is upon them that war's heavy | hand is laid most relentlessly. | Others may escape the hardships of military service through exemptions | provided for executives, farmers | and persons of specialized quali- | fications, but for workingmen, gen- | erally speaking, there is no loophole. | “They comprise the mass of the eligible fighting population, They have to take it on the Jaw. Work-| ingmen furnish the great bulk of the cannon fodder.”
