2d 269
The Daily Review Corporation filed a complaint with the National Labor
Relations Board, alleging that the local union No. 915 and the I. T. U.
(International Typographical Union) had refused to bargain in good faith.
The unions defended on the ground that the parties had orally agreed on
July 17, 1947, and that the company, on July 24, had refused to execute a
written contract. The trial examiner found to that effect; but he also found
that the unions had abandoned the oral contract and had refused to
negotiate in good faith. The Board disagreed with the examiner as to such
abandonment, and ordered the dismissal of the company's complaint. The
company petitioned for a review of the Board's order. The decision and
order of the Board are reported in 87 N.L.R.B. 1263.
