PAGE 12 LABOR RIGHTS AT STAKE IN BUFFALO CASE Verdict of Board to Set Precedent: Awaited by Union Men. !■* Smpps-U otrr<f .\Virt psprr HHanCt WASHINGTON. Aug. 9—One of the most important caw's involv ing the rights of labor under the Roosevelt regime, that of the Houde Engineering Company of Buffalo, was given added national impor tance today by intercession of the powerful John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America. Mr. Lewis, on behalf of his large and cohesive union, filed a brief with the national labor relations board arguing against recognition of a minority labor group as pro posed by the Buffalo corporation. The basic question involved is whether a minority group in a plant shall be permitted under the col lective bargaining provisions of the NR A to deal separately from a ma jority with an employer. The board's decision will establish a precedent and. since it will reach to the fundamentals of union or ganization, is awaited anxiously not only by labor organizations but by industry. The keen interest of labor is exemplified in the inter cession of Mr. Lewis, who is one of the leading champions of organized labor in the country and was a member of the old national labor board, predecessor of the present board . Regarded as Test Labor men generally regard this case as a test of the new supreme court of labor, and are prepared to make a great protest if the board upholds minority representation. In his brief, Mr. Lewis takes the position that recognition of minor ities would hit directly at the very principle of collective bargaining, would cause confusion and chaos, and react against the rights and in terests of workers, since the very foundation of organization is major ity rule, not only in labor unions but in every field of social and po litical endeavor. In the case of the United Mine Workers, it is pointed out, this would permit individual units to bargain and interfere with contracts as well as intrude directly into the competitive situation as between op eratuig groups. Other unions, it is understood, are preparing to file briefs in the im portant case which originated last January with a threatened strike in the Houde plant and was inherited recently by the new labor board after its predecessor had failed to bring a final settlement. Board Moving Warily The board is proceeding very cau tiously in drafting its decision, which is not expected for some time. The union involved is the United Automobile Workers. The old labor board, after a hearing, ordered an election to determine which should represent the workers in negoti ations with the company—the union or the Houde Athletic Asso ciation, an alleged welfare organi zation of the company. The vote was 1,105 to 674 for the automobile union, but the company refused to obey an order of the Buffalo regional board that it bar gain with this union, and the case was dumped before the new board only a few days ago when the com pany insisted upon its right to deal also with the minority group.
