The challenges fall into several different categories with the An- nette Islands Canning Company votes being impounded tecause ap-, plication by the company for mem- bership in the Alaska Salmon In-| dustry, Inc, was not made until: after the execution of the agree-; ment for consent of election. i The investigation in this case| showed that the Annette Islands Canning Co. was not a member of Alaska Salmon Industry, Inc. in the year 1948 and was not covered by any multiple-eniployer unit con- tract entered into by the associ- ation for the season of 1948. Upon the basis of the facts in this case, and based upon what Thomas P. Graham, Regional Di- rector of the Nineteenth Region of the ‘National Labor Relatons| Board, Seattle, deems to be the poliey of the board in similar fac- tual situations, Graham found that the employees of the Annette Islands Canning Co. were not em- ployees within the unit. Graham sustained the challenges made to the ballots of all of the employees of that company, total- ling 96 in all. The affirmative on the tallot had received a majority vote regardless of how the em- | ployees may have voted on the re- maining ballots that were chal- lenged, totalling 74. | TWO CALLS BY STORK AT ST.

It was noted that there was very little and in some places a com- plete lack of snow shown in the pictures taken during the summer n the Arctic regions.
