concerned with this prob

to do something about it

Administrative actions af

NLRB as it has dealt with
labor - .management rela
tions. Criticism has been
voiced by labor and man
agement that the NLRB
has not been the impartial
agency that Congress in
tended it to be. It is said,
too, that the NLRB has en
gaged in a little legisla
tive writing on its own
during the course of its in
terpretation of the laws.
Beginning March 26, the
subcommittee plans to go
into these charges and as
certain the state of the ad
ministration of the laws by
the NLRB. The subcom
mittee is fortunate to have
the services of outstanding
consultants who are au-

Witnesses at the hear
ings will include senators
and congressmen, members
of the NLRB, members of
the academic professions,
respected lawyers and
judges, and outstanding
union and management
representatives.
The subcommittee enters
this study with the purpose
of finding out whether
there is need for improve
ments in standards gov
erning the functioning of
the NLRB and, whether
there is need for greater
Congressional oversight of
its actions. It has often
been said that “we are a
nation of laws, and not of
men.” However, that prin
ciple is challenged when
the legislative power of
Congress become muted by
an indefinable power ex
ercised by a federal regu
latory agency. The sub
committee will endeavor to
seek answers to guide Con
gress as it deals with the
NLRB’s interpretation of
legislative enactments and
the' administrative prob
lems posed thereby.
The subcommittee will
limit its inquiry to the ad
ministration of the existing
law, and will not be mak
ing recommendations in the
field of substantiv'e law.
The hearings will deal
with' i problem of im
mense importance to every
citizen. It will be dealing

Mudroom
A mudroom is one of the
most-wanted home addi
tions, especially among
homemakers with small chil
dren, according to a survey
reported by the Plumbing-
Heating - Cooling Informa
tion Bureau.
Chief purpose of the mud
room is to trap mud, snow
and other dirt before it gets
into the living area. It does
so by changing the traffic
pattern into the house.
The well-equipped mud
room should have a water
closet, a sink with hot and
cold water, a drinking foun
tain, a place to hang clothes
and a work counter where
flowers can be arranged and
vegetables fresh from the
garden can be washed.
This means that the mud
room is not only a place to
shed damp boots and clothes
before entering another part
of the house, it’s also ideal
for children to use while
playing or gardeners while
working in the yard.
Ideal place for a mudroom
is just off the kitchen. Other
good spots are the garage or
the laundry room, if it has
an outside entrance.
In any of these locations,
a mudroom adds up to
convenience for the family.
