'Service Fee' In Steel Pact Hit Called Violation Of 'Right To Work' WASHING'. OX, Jan. 16 l'PI The national Right-to-Work Committee today attacked the major steel com-( panics for agreeing to an "agency shop" clause in the new steel contracts.

Committe Chairman William T. Harrison said in an open letter to V. S. Steel Board Chairman Rri(7r Rlniii'h the provision "abrogates the r.nri.cri von Vioht tn 1 work The steel settlement provides that in states which forbid contracts requiring a worker to join the union to hold a job the worker must pay a "service fee" In lieu of dues. It is defended by union officials as a way to share the cost of collective bargaining among all -workers in a plant, whether they are members or not.

Mr. Harrison wrote "It is difficult to understand why the steel companies saw fit to impose upon fellow Americans the requirement that they must support a private association whose services they do not seek and whose philosophy they do not share." The committee advocates passage of so-called state "right-towoik" laws to forbid compulsory union membership. Such laws are on the books in 19 states. Shaler Twp.

Hughes based her theory on newspaper stories in connection with the 1930 "Free Work" investigation. Later in the day, Mr. Gallagher penned Mrs. Hughes the following information: "The allegations you make against Homer K. Greene were thoroughly aired before a grand jui-y some 10 years ago.

As you know, Mr. Greene was completely exonerated of any wrongdoing at that time. "It certainly would serve no constructive purpose to revive the charges again." Council will vote on the vacancy, created by the election of Frederic G. Weir to the Common Pleas Court bench, on Monday.
