Feb. 11 An anti-mud splattering bill, for the protection of motorists following commercial trucks on muddy roads, was offered in the House late yesterday afternoon by Representative James U.

Watson (Dem.) of New London.

DALLAS, Feb. 11 (AP) The Government is ready to strp Into building Industry labor disputes lor the first time. Robert N.

general rounsel of the National Labor Relations Board, said today his agency Is assuming Jurisdiction under the Taft-Hartley law. Denham's assertion in a speech prepared for the Associated General Contractors means that the NRLB will act to: 1. Enforce bars against "feather-bedding" and secondary boycotts. (Feather-bedding is the practice of requiring employers to hire more workers than they need. Secondary boycott occur when workers rot on strike themselves refuse to handle goods from plants which have disputes with other workers.) 2.

Consider charges of unfair labor practices by either building trades unions or contractors. 3. Settle jurisdictional disputes In which two or more unions claim the right to do certain work. Has Held Aloof. Heretofore the NLRB has held aloof from labor troubles in the building Industry on the ground that the work In most instances did riot Involve lnteratat commerce.

That ruling was laid down by the agency under the Wagner Act of 1935 which created the NLRB. It meant that except for a few wage disputes handled I by the Labor Department, the Gov ernment could not intervene when strikes halted building work. Denham, however, told the contractors under the Taft-Hartley law of 1947 his agency will assume that an interruption of construction will affect interstate commerce eventually, hence the board will ttvp In. Dunham railed jurisdictional disputes particularly annoying in the building and construction trade and said he hopes the NLRB will not have to act as umpire. Presents Plan.

He therefore commended to the contractors a plan worked outJ tentatively by the AFL building trade unions and builder representatives. Details of this plan have not been made public. It is due to be acted on by the contractors during their current Electing. I'rring Its approval, the NLRB official rifcUrfd: "It would be almost riilirulmix i for me to attempt to define for jou the tremendous advantages to both you, and your employes and the public at large, of any program that will substantially diminish these unfortunate jurisdictional disputes, which, at least In the public eye, have so frequently Interferred with building operations throughout the country."
