Description
Order Denying Motion for Rule to Show Cause, and Petition to Intervene On consideration thereof, and by direction of the Court, IT IS ORDERED that the (1) motion of National Union of Marine Cooks and Stewards for rule to show cause, and (2) petition of International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union to intervene herein be, and each of them hereby is denied. Separate Opinion of POPE, C.J.: In concurring in the making of the foregoing order I consider it appropriate to set forth as briefly as possible my reasons for such action. On December 16, 1954, the National Labor Relations Board, after a hearing at which all interested parties were represented, and acting upon a representation petition asking for certification of a bargaining representative of all unlicensed seagoing personnel on ships of the companies which are members of Pacific Maritime Association (here called PMA), determined that all unlicensed seagoing employees on vessels operated by members of PMA constituted a unit appropriate for the purposes of collective bargaining within the meaning of Γ§ 9b of the National Labor Relations Act. In doing so, the Board rejected the contention of International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union (ILWU) and of National Union of Marine Cooks and Stewards (NUMCS) that certification should be made of a bargaining representative of steward personnel only, with the further contention that if the Board found a wider unit appropriate, the stewards be permitted to vote separately concerning representation.
