In 1933 John Barnes Mull of Phila- |

cross-examination however, she testi-

He became president, the position he
now holds, on December 24, 1936. Miss
Barnes at the same time was elected
chairman of the board and still holds |
that position.

Miss Barnes asserted that she never

they were given 900 tickets supposed to go to a charity organization, an<
planned to profit thereby. When they found out the tickets were to go
orphans they promptly returned all 900 tickets. As a result they wer

“I said every group of men has the
right to organize as they see fit, and
that, so far as the State of Pennsylv-
ania is concerned, we will recognize
employes and not any torganization
which they may ‘attempt to be repres-
ented by.”
On this phase of the interview, the
union group reported:
He stated that employes have the
right to meet with the Department
heads as employes. The Governor re-
fused to clarify this statement and
stated that it should be clear enough
in view of his public utterances.
“We asked the Governor to stop dis-
missals of union men in the Highway
Department, to reinstate those dis-
missed, and to instruct officials of the
Department to meet with the union.
“The Governor's reply was that the
Highway workers got their jobs poli-
tically and will lose them for the
same reason. He stated that those who
supported him will get consideration
and that efficiency will not be a faec-
tor in keeping the jobs of present em-
ployes.

“The SMCA has opposed political

The Union committee charged that
the Governor answered a question as
to civil service by replying that people
have been efficient and should be able
to continue to work efficiently without
civil service. They said he refused
comment on a pending measure to re-
organize the State's relief system and
deprive 4000 employes of civil service
