Not the least of these was a retroactive provision in the award which means more than two years of back pay for the workers. The total amount of back pay to be divided among AFL Western Union workers was estimated at about 25 million dollars. This will amount to individual sums ranging from 400 up The only CIO local in Western Union, representing the New York area, received somewhat less in th NWLB decision, and threatened to strike.
The AFL Commercial Telegraphers Union and several AFL Federal Labor unions in the Western Union setup agreed in advance with the company to abide by the NWLB decision. The refusal of the CIO union to go along was blasted by the company in newspaper advertisements as indicating that its signature to an agreement was worthless.
Several months ago the National War Labor Board had given Western Union workers only cents an hour increase. The new award resulted from the AFL union appeal for reconsideration. It was regarded by the AFL as sufficiently responsive to the merits of the case.

ference to do. Instead it did something far more important.
Its unanimous reports set down a code of collective bargaining principles which, if followed by management and labor, will widen the area of good faith and sound relations. Important points from the three reports are given below. Union officers and organizers are urged to write for the complete text. First Agreements: Collective bargaining, undertaken promptly and in good faith after recognition of a proper bargaining agent, is the first step to avoid strikes or refusal to bargain by the employer. Observance of the following rules will contribute to orderly procedure: The employer should not question his obligation to bargain with the union, nor should negotiations be delayed by either party: the obiective should be to sign an agreement covering a definite period of time. Each party should present a statement of position: areas of agreement should be sought and issues precisely defined; respect and consideration should be given to all proposals. Conciliation and voluntary arbitration may be used if collective bargaining fails, but they should not be the first resort. Existing Agreements. Agreements should be clearly written and thoroughly understood by employer and all employees; workers and supervisors should be educated in the meaning of all provisions; there must be an honest effort on the part of all to carry out the spirit as well as the letter of the agreement, to conduct relations on a basis of mutual fairness and respect.
Agreements should contain effective procedure for settling grievances without strike or lockout. Grievances should be promptly handled, and should be considered by foremen as aids in discovering and removing the causes of discontent. Management and union should train their representatives in the proper functioning of grievance procedure; the basic objective is achievement of sound and fair settlements. Conciliation Service. The United States Conciliation Service should be reorganized so that it will be an effective and completely impartial agency within the Labor Department. An Advisory Committee to the Director should be appointed, consisting of equal numbers of management and labor representatives. Personnel of the Service should be characterized by impartiality, integrity and knowledge of management labor problems, and provisions should be made for training newly appointed conciliators; the number of conciliators should be adequate. The Division of Arbitration should have a list of capable trained arbitrators who may be assigned when requested by both parties The Technical Service Division should be reorganized and should have an advisory committee of equal numbers of management and labor representatives. Working with the Bureau of Labor Statistics and other agencies, it should provide information whenever needed.
