Supreme Court Upholds
T-H Law Loyalty Oath
By PAUL M. VOST
WASHINGTON, May 9—(AP)-—
The Supreme Court sees no viola
tion of the Constitution in the non-
Communist oath provisions of the
Taft-Hartley labor law.
By vote of five to one, the high
tribunal yesterday upheld the
power of Congress to compel union
officials to swear they are not
Communists if they wish to get
the assistance of the National La
bor Relations Board.
“In this legislation,” said Chief
Justice Vinson, “Congress did not
restrain the activities of the Com
munist party as a political organi
zation. Nor did it attempt to stifle
beliefs.”
Speaking for the court majority,
the Chief Justice stated the oath
provision “touches only a relative
handful of persons, leaving the
great majority of persons of the
identified (Communistic) affilia
tions and beliefs completely free
from restraint.”
And, he added, *“it leaves those
few who are affected free to main
tain their affiliations and beliefs
subject only to possible loss of
positions which Congress has con
cluded are beinf abused to the in
jury of the public.”
No Infringement
Further, said Vinson, the pro
vision does not unduly infringe
freedoms of speech and press pro
tected by the Constitution's first
amendment. Anyway, he declared,
“those who, so Congress has found,
would subvert the public interest
can not escape all regulations, be
cause, at the same time, they car
ry on legitimate political activi~
ties.”
The majority ruling brought a
sharp dissent from Justice Black.
He said that under Vinson's rea
soning affiliation with any other
political party could be proscrib
ed. Black conceded that neither of
the major political parties was
likely to “turn this weapon on the
other.”

He was arrested several months
#o driving Johnny Thomas’ car.
e was temporarily involved in a
burglary charge with Thomas and
Vester Coleman but later cleared.
Coleman and Thomas were both
given prison terms.
The three were arrested on
Broad street on Saturday after
noon after the burglary of a pri
vate home on the Lexington road
that morning.
RECORDER’S COURT
There was only three cases in
Recorder’s Court and only one de=
fendant appeared for trial before
Judge Olin Price. The lone defand~
ant was charged with drunkenness
and received a suspended sentence
and placed or. probation.
One defendant forfeited a
$10.75 bond for the same offense.
The third defendant, who show
ed up after court had adjourned
was fined $5.75 for driving the
wrong way on a one-way street.
A contempt fine against him was
dismissed.
Judge Price announced there
will be no Recorder’s Court tomor
row and Thursday. There "vill be
a session on Friday.
The oath provision was attack
ed by the CIO United Steel Work
ers of America and the CIO Am
erican Communications Associa
tion, Officers of both unions have
filed non-Commrunist oaths, but
pressed their fight against what
they called the “illegal require
ment,”
In another split decision the
high tribunal affirmed contempt
of-Congress convictions of Miss
Helen R. Bryan and Mrs. Ernes
tina G. Fleischman. They got

250,000 IS A LOT OF HOURS
Shown above is D. F. Dalton holding a scroll awarded
the Weaving Department at Athens Manufacturing
Company by the American Mutual Liability Insurance
Company for marking up a safety record of 250,000
man-hours, one entire year, of operation without a single
loss-time accident. With Mr. Dalton, superintendent of
weaving, are Valco Guest, seecond shift overseer, and M.
F. James, second hand on the first shift.
Safety Record Set At
Local Manufactory
Employes of the Weaving De
partment of the Athens Manufact
uring Company today were the
proud possessors of an award by
the American Mutual Liability In
surance Company for the out
standing safety record they estab
lished during a twelve-months pe
riod of operation.
Not a single loss-time accident
occurred in the Weaving Depart
ment during 250,000 man-hours of
operation,
The award, an attractive scroll,
was received by D. F, Dalton, su
perintendent of the Weaving De
partment on behalf of the em
ployes who made i possible. The
presentation was made by W. E.
Vinson, representing the insur
ance company.
Mr. Dalton said the award is
the result of the interest taken by
employes in his department in the
safety training classes held at the
company, which were direected by
Engineer Vinson and a keen gense
of teamwork on the part of the
people in the Weaving Room. The
training course included lectures
and visual methods through mo
tion pictures showing the safe and
unsafe methods of operations.
Mr. Dalton said, in commenting
on the safety honor: “We are all
mighty proud of winning this
award and especially of the spirit
of teamwork and c_operation that
made it possible. You can’t make
a record like that—without a single
loss-time accident over a period of
a year - unless everybody really
takes an interest and works to
bring about the result.”
Is Third Award
The award marks the third for
a department of the company, pre
vious awards having been won
by the Cloth Room, George Ed
wards, overseer, and the Cotton
and spinning, and J. W. DeLong,
Towns, superintendent of carding
and spinnig, and J. W. Del Long,
overseer of the second shift.
Another factor which has play
ed a major role in winning the
safety awards is the huge air
