Shapp Requests Data on State's Labor Matters HARRISBURG (UPI)-Claiming recognition of any union bargaining agents for state em- nloyes would affect his administration rather than that of Gov. Raymond P. Shapp Sunday asked for information on recognition proceedings pending before the Pennsylvania Labor Relations Board. In a letter to Shafer, Shapp said although he has made known his support and encouragement of the process of collective bargaining for public employes, he felt his staff members should have been consulted by the Shafer administration on the cases before-the board.

He said if his staff is consulted, "At the appropriate time my administration will be able to express to the board the views that we think are pertinent to a meaningful determination of the appropriateness of any unit for the purposes of collective bargaining."
