Scheduled March 11, Eagen Says E. J. Eagen, attorney for the Na- tional Labor Relations Board, 19th Region, arrived yesterday on the Aleska from Seattle. Mr. Eagen stated today that he came to Ju- \n‘au to conduct a hearing and ‘preaent evidence before a Trial Ex- | aminer with ‘regard to charges filed ‘by Local 203 of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers against the Alaska Junecau Gold Mining Company. The hearing will be held on March |11, Mr. Eagen said, and no: on March 9 as previously scheduled, be- | cause the Trial Examiner will not be able to reach Juneau on the earlier date. Probably a week will be required to hear the evidence, Mr. Eagen said. He stated that trial examiners are appointed by the Labor Relations Board in Washinz- ton, D. C, and that he does not know who has been appointed to attend the local hearing. It was understood here that Charles W. Hope, Regional Director from Se- attle, would serve as Trial Exam- iner. Outlines Charge “The union has charged the Al- aska Juneau with refusal to bar- gain with the union, with support- ing and interfering with the pur- ported union known as the Juneau Mine workers' association, and with discrimination against hire and tenure of employment on ac- count of affiliation with organiza- tion,” Mr. Eagen said. ‘The purpose of the hearing is to determine whether there is any basis for the charges, he said. The hearing will be held in the District Court room. Procedure is similar to that before the Federal Trade Com- mission, he stated. At the conclus- ion of the hearing the Trial Ex- aminer will make an Intermediate Report which will be sent to the National Labor Relations Board in Washington, D. C. Additional briefs may be filed with the Board by either side or both sides, he said, and the Board will then review the evidence, including the Trial Ex- aminer’s Intermediate Report, and will make a decision. Either side may appeal the decision of the National Labor Relations Board to! the Circuit Court of Appeals, he said.
