NEW ANDERSON PLEA EXPECTED

Motion to Quash 1 to Be Filed § In Center Township Relief Quiz Cases.

Paul Rochford, attorney, said he! would file a motion today to quash | indictments charging Dan R. Anderson, grocer, with . filing false relief claims. Mr. Anderson is one of four under indictment as the result of the Grand Jury's investigation of Center Township relief practices. A previous motion attacking legality of the Grand Jury which returned the indictments was overruled by Criminal Court Judge Dewey E. Myers. A motin to quash was filed in the case of J. Barton Griffin, also unaer indictment on charges of filing false relief claims and false pretense, but a hearing on this motion, scheduled for last Monday, was suspended when Mr. Griffin requested a change of judge in his case. The change of venue petition now is in the hands of the clerk of the Supreme Court, who must select the names of three persons from which a special judge will be selected Action on the other cases, which are those of Thomas M. Quinn, resigned Center Township Trustee: John Neenan, former relief order writer, and Frank Bluestein, grocer, has been held up pending outcome of hearings on petitions on the other cases.

INDUSTRY RAPS | LABOR STATUTE, ASKS CHANGES

12 Amendments Proposed By National Group of Manufacturers.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20 (U. P).!

{—The National Association of Manu-|

facturers proposed 12 major amend- | ments to the Wagner Labor Act! today, including six limitations on! the right to strike. The proposal was made by the,

| Association's committee on employ- | {ment relations, which declared that | the act has increased labor disputes. |

| prevented attainment of “true nasecurity” and menaced the nation’s welfare. The group, composed of 100 leading industrialists,’ listed 11 specific complaints against the Labor Act and the National Labor Relations Board. The report was released as the House committee investigating the Labor Board recessed until Jan. 5. shortly after which field hearings will be held. l Both the C. 1. O. and A. F. of L.

{previously have proposed amend-

{ments to the Wagner Labor Act.

Legal Ban Proposed

The N. A. M. committee proposed a legal ban on closed shop contracts

Te,

(and on check-off systems, whereby

funion dues are deducted from em-| | ployees’ pay env elopes. It said that | benefits of the Labor Act should be!

‘withheld from workers who engage lin:

“Strikes without presentation of | demands or grievances and reason-

| able opportunity for their consider. |

lation.

“Strikes in violation of agree.

ments.

“Strikes to prevent or compel the | | use of materials, equipment or serv-

| ices.

“Strikes accompanied by repeated

jor systematic acts of violence and

intimidation. “Sit-down strikes, or other strikes

| which involve illegal occupation of

property, “Strikes to cause the commission of an illegal act or the commission of a legal duty.” Another proposed amendment urged that the law's preamble be rewritten because it: “Fails to recognize that denial by employers of the rights of employees to organize and bargain collectively is the exception and not the rule.

Claim Unfairness Scarse

“Ignores the fact that the majorlity of the strikes and other obstruc[tion to commerce are not due to unfair labor practices by employers. “Fails to recognize that individual | employers may be at the mercy of large labor organizations. “Fails to recognize that individual employes should have the right to voluntarily choose for themselves whether they wish to join any labor organization or none at all.” Other changes proposed were: Revised definitions of “employees” “current labor disputes”; “so-called maa safeguard ) specific section guaranteeing action by the board on employer petitions for denial of permission to, the board to make compulsory | multiple - unit certifications; a ‘definite statute of limitations for action on complaints; placing upon the complainant the burden of sub- | stantiating its charges; requirement that labor organizations keep on file with the Board “reasonable information with respect to themselves | and their responsibility.”

Charge Confidence Destroyed

The manufacturers’ committee | said that administration of the law and the act itself have: : “1. Destroyed confidence in fairness. | “2. Destroyed confidence in its ad- | ministration. “3. Protected sitdown strikers and other strikers engaged in violence, intimidation and coercion. “4, Been one-sided; assumed that only employers can be guilty of unfair labor practices. | “5. Failed to protect employees against any and all coercion. | “6. Compelled employers to continue to bargain with representatives of a union which had violated collective agreements already made with the employer. “7. Tried to prevent employers from expressing their opinions, even from truthfully stating the facts about unionism in general or particular unions,

its

Claim Disputes Increased

“8. Denied the right to ordinary provisions of a fair trial, including full statement of charges, equal rights to subpoena witnesses, and equal rights to introduce evidence. “9. Sought to destroy independent unions not affiliated with either! the C. I. O. or the A. F. of L., notwithstanding the fact that such organizations were lawfully initiated | many years ago. “10. Exhibited hostility toward ‘employers and their associations | while championing the rights of employees fo organize into associa- | tions. “11. Increased the number of la- | bor disputes and threats of labor disputes.”
