UNIONS CLASH

ON JURISDICTION

‘(Teamsters to Contest the

Membership of 70,000 Machinists.

By DANIEL M. KIDNEY Times Staff Writer

WASHINGTON, June 18—An estimated 70,000 jobs today are open to jurisdictional dispute between the teamsters union, headed by Daniel J. Tobin, and the machinists, headed

by Harvey W. Brown. Decision to contest for this membership was reached at a meeting of the teamsters’ executive committee here. It grew out of the withdrawal of the machifiyts from the American Federationipof Labor, of which Mr. Tobin is 8 Vice president. Mr. Brown appeared before the committeemen and was informed of the action. Mr. Tobin explained that when both unions werein the A. F. of L. a working agreement was made which was advantageous to the machinists in the enrollment of garage mer chanics, warehousemen and’ others who might have been considered eligible for the teamsters’ union. The agreement also provided for “mutual assistance” in case of strikes or other labor disputes, and this also is canceled. The machinists withdrew from the A. FP. of L. after a long-standing jurisdictional dispute was settled by an A. F. of L. ruling favoring the carpenters’ union.

Woman Who Leads Guerrillas

CHUNGKING, June 18 (U, P.)— The Japanese army today offered $40,000 reward for the wrinkled, toothless head of Madame Chao Yut Yang, 68-year-old leader of a guerrilla band which has killed many thousands of Nipponese soldiers. A Chinese national heroine, “Mother Chao” has sworn to battle the invaders.until they are driven beyond the Yalu river in Manchuria, her homeland. She still takes occasional pot shots at the “dwarf men,” but her main task is directing 30,000 guerrillas in raids on Japanese troop convoys. Mother Chao has been fighting Japanese since 1931. When they invaded Manchuria, she smuggled food and weapons to the “NorthEast South Iron Blood Army” organized by her son, now Gen. Chao Tung. ; For years she was under suspicion by the Japanese. But when they searched her farm, they always were welcomed by a smiling, guileless old woman who offered them tea and cigarets. It was reported that even Gen. Kenji Doihara, chief of the Japanese secret service in Manchuria, interviewed Mother Chao" but came away convinced she was harmless. In 1937, Mother Chao dropped her anonymity to organize her own guerrilla army. She sent her son into the western hills with 23 friends to form the “North China Peoples

Resist Japan Army.” When recruiting lagged, she decided to také a hand in it herself. Going to her son’s headquarters, she obtained a Mauser pistol and hid it under her gown. She promised to return before sunset with 100 recruits. Gathering some dubi~ ous farmers, she led them to a nearby Japanese-occupied village. She drew her pistol and fired two shots. Two Japanese sentries guarding the city gate 100 yards distant fell dead. She wiped the gun and turned to the gaping: peasants watching her. “You see,” she said, are not invincible.” s She returned with her first 100 recruits. Since then her constantly growing peoples’ army has killed Japanese by the thousands. It has destroyed 300 Japanese military trucks and captured 50 machine guns.

LABOR ATTACKS

NO-STRIKE BILL

FDR Told Representatives May Quit WLB if He 0. K.’s Act.

WASHINGTON, June 18 (U. P.). —Organized labor, asserting that its representatives may withdraw from the war labor, board if President Roosevelt signs the Smith-Connally anti-strike bill, rested its case against the measure today on a join indictment by three prominent spokesmen who described it “a wicked, vicious bill.” The attack was made in a long memorandum to President Roosevelt, who must decide whether to veto or approve the measure. The memorandum was signed by President Philip Murray of the Congress of Industrial Organizations; President William Green of the Americap Federation of Labor, and President David B. Robertson of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen & Enginemen. : “It is- the worst anti-labor bill passed by congress in the last hundred years,” they said. “It is born of revenge and malice. It is the very essence of fascism. It destroys the philosophy of voluntarism on which free trade unionism is found.”

‘Hamstrings’ Board They charged that the bill also destroyed the foundations of collective bargaining, and that it substituted for labor’s no-strike pledge a provision giving express encouragement for strikes by permitting stoppages after a 30-day ‘cooling off” period. The memorandum said the prohibition on WLB members participating in cases in which they represented either party would bar F. F. of L. and C. I. O. members from cases involving their respective affiliates. “It affords a splendid opportunity to ‘hamstring’ the functioning of the board by attacking a

decision in which union officials|

participated,” the statement said. “We seriously question whether A. F. of L. or C. I. O. officials can remain on the board, since they could not participate in any case involving one of their affiliated or-

ganizations.”
