The situation arose out of a writ of habeas corpus filed by penitentiary inmate Donald Wayne Eblen ia an effort to gain his freedom. Blair found that he had sentenced Eblen in the Circuit Court of Dallas County and that Eblen's pett- international conference be called to settle the Suez Canal dispute.

Sears was the guest speaker at a regular meeting of the club held Warwick attended by about 20 members.

His talk centered on the prob lerns of juvenile delinquency In the state and across the nation, was aimed at the parents who, he believes, are the cause of the problem. He mentioned that last year in this country more than a million court cases involving minors were considered, and estimated that this year the number will surpass two million cases.

High Court Gives Decision on Union (Continued from Page 1) nial, the sum and substance of the union's demand on the plaintiffs, In view of the provisions oi its is that each plaintiff must stop working with the tools of the trade in his own place of business or he must join the union.

"Of course, if the plaintiffs do not join the union, and do stop working with the tools of the trade, then by reason of the 'union shop' agreement it will be neces sary for each to hire a union member to do that work which he had been doing or permit the svork not to be done in his barbershop." The court said "We hold that it is contrary to the public policy of this state, and therefore an unlawful labor objective, for a labor union to exert economic pressure on an employer to compel him to join a union of his employes when to do so makes him subject to union 'laws' which destroy or substantially Impair his right to assert and protect those interests essential to his status as an employer in negotiations with the union."
