DETROIT, July 2—The United Au- Somobile Workers' Evecutive Board, in- westigating recent ‘“wildcat” strikes, recommended to Union President Homer Martin today the transfer of three organizers from Flint, Mich., and #ne from Detroit. Robert C. Travis, the union’s or- ganizational director in the Flint area, Wwho had a prominent part in the Gen- eral Motors strikes last January, is one of the men affected. ‘The others are Ralph Dale and Wil- Ham Cody, assigned to Flint from Wis- eonsin several months ago, and Emil Mazey, organizer assigned to the Briggs Manufacturing Co. local, larg- est in Detroit On Wednesday Martin announced the board was “going to demonstrate through its action this week in dis- eiplining those responsible for past unauthorized strikes that we mean business.” Possible Successors in Detroit. Prominently discussed here as pos- sible successors to the Flint organizers are Fred Pieper of Atlanta, Ga.; Rus- sell Merrill of South Bend, Ind., and Delmond Garts of St. Louis, Mo., who @are members of the Executive Board. Pending renewal of attempts to carry its unionization campaign to the Ford Motor Co. gates, the U. A. W. plan to use the mails to reach Ford em- | Pployes, objects of the drive. Union officials said vesterday 10,000 copies of a speech by Representative Maverick, Demecrat, of Texas at & mass meeting June 5 are being pre- pared for mailing in franked congres- sional envelopes from union head- quarters here. The address nas been printed in the Congressional Record, they said, and Maverick supplied the envelopes for its distribution. U. A. W. A leaders said they hoped the envelopes would assure delivery of copies of the speech to a mailing | list eomposed of Ford executives, fore- men and lesser employes.. The printed address, in pamphlet form, is stamped *“Not printed at Government expense.” Maverick spoke to union men gath- ered in Baby Creek Park, just inside the Detroit city limits, a fortnight efter the disorder at the huge River Rouge Ford plant in suburban Dear- born in which union organizers at- tempting to distribute handbills were beaten. The union has announced it will at- tempt to place its newspaper, the United Automobile Worker, in the hands of Ford employes at & change of shifts between 6 and 7 a.m. (East- ern standard time) next Wednesday at the Rouge plant. AMENDMENT PROPOSED Change Asked in Compensation Payment Act. Chairman Doughton of the House ‘Ways and Means Committee proposed yesterday an amendment to the ad- Justed compensation payment act to provide for reversion to the Federal Government of unclaimed amounts. Bonus payments, including those heretofore made, would revert to the Government where laws of a State or eountry provide for the claiming of a deceased veteran's estate.

No more taxicab associations will be authorized by the Public Utilities Commission, it was announced yes- terday. Riley E. Elgen, commission chair- man, said he believed the limitation might result in development of greater responsibility on the part of the 19 taxicab associations, but added the move had no connection with pro- posals pending in Congress for grad- ual reduction in the number of taxis | or for financial responsibility.

O, called & mass meeting for 8 o'clock tonight at the Cocoanut Grove Club, Fifth and K streets. Erwin Dollar, chairman of the meet- ing, said the speakers would include former Representative Loring Black of New York, Harry 8. Wender, chairman of the Safety Committee of the Fed- eration of Citizens’ Associations, and Charles W. Hollord, chairman of the Bxecutive Committee of the brother- hood. There are now 12 taxicab associa- tions composed of white drivers and 7 for colored drivers. In its order the Public Utilities Commission said: “These associations are of differ- ing types and afford wide lati- tude of choice to independent opera- tors who might wish to afli- ate. The commission and its staff for a long period of time have given serious consideration to the question of prohibiting the formation of additional associations. This con- sideration and study have brought the commission to the conclusion that in the interest of the public the in- dependent owner-driver and the pub- lic authorities a limitation is desirable and that no benefit would flow from additional associations.” ‘The charges made by the existing D. C, FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1937. associations for membership vary widely, depending largely on the serv- ice rendered by the assoclations to their members. There are several hundred hackers who operate inde- pendently and are neither owned by taxicab fleet corporations nor ali- ated with associations.
