Charges Against Sears
Seattle, Washington. — Depart-

Clerks, has again filed charges
with the National Labor Relations
Board accusing Sears, Roebuck &
Co. with unfair labor practices.
Local 1207 accused the retail
store management here of agree-
ing to union security verbally bat
refusing to put it into writing;
failure to put agreements on sales
commissions in writing; an attempt
to bypass normal Grievance proced-
ures and refusal to meet with a
union representative.
Do workers in the newly-emerg-
ing nations of Africa and else-
where want free, strong trade un-
ions with the choice of determining
their own destiny?
Yes, say affiliated organizations
of the AFL-CIO, and have backed
up this belief with shipments of
union labeled typewriters, dupli-
cating machines, ink, stencils and
office supplies to more than a score
of unions in the underdeveloped
areas.
"We are a long way out in front
in co-operating with these free
unions to preserve their independ-
ence and growth," says Lee W.
Minton, president of the Glass
Blowers’ Association and a vice-
president of CARE, in summing up
the results of dramatic teamwork
