Helvering v. Superior Wines & Liquors Inc.

The National Labor Relations Board has petitioned for the enforcement of its order of September 24, 1942, directing the respondents to cease and desist (a) from discouraging membership in the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers or any other labor organization of their employees; (b) from giving effect to any contract of employment now in existence between the respondents and their individual employees, or requiring, as a condition of employment, execution of such contracts by the individual employees; and (c) from in any other manner interfering with, restraining or coercing their employees in the exercise of the right to self-organization, to form, join, or assist labor organizations, to bargain collectively through representatives of their own choosing, or to engage in concerted activities for the purposes of collective bargaining or mutual aid and protection. The order also requires the respondents to take the following affirmative action; (a) offer reinstatement to Glen Smith, a former employee, and reimburse him for any loss of wages; (b) post the usual notices of compliance; and (c) notify the Regional Director of steps taken to comply with the order. The order is based upon the findings by the Board that the respondents had violated Section 8(1) and (3) of the National Labor Relations Act, 49 Stat. 449, 29 U.S.C.A. 151 et seq.
