Union Cleared After Hearing By Examiner
The National Labor Relations Board announced that a trial examiner recommended dismissal of the unfair labor practices complaint against the International Chemical Workers Union, which represents employees of American Safety Razor Corp. in LaPorte Indiana. The case centered on alleged nonpayment of dues by former member James D. Pendergrass who was discharged in 1953. Pendergrass testified dues were offered twice to a union steward who would not accept. The steward Mary Rainwater testified she attempted to collect dues but Pendergrass would not pay. The examiner found Pendergrass made no full and unqualified tender of dues and that the union did not violate the law.
