On November 21, 1952, following the conviction of Anthony Valen-
tino, in a United States district court, for having previously made false
statements in a non-Communist affidavit filed with the Board under
Section 9 (h) of the Act, the Board issued and sent to all parties a
notice to show cause, returnable on or before December 1, 1952, why its
certification of February 2, 1951, issued in the above-entitled proceed-
ing, should not be revoked for abuse of its processes.
Upon request of the Union, an enlargement of time in which to
answer was granted to all parties. The Union filed a brief in response
and requested opportunity to be heard and to present the facts and
the position of the Union to the Board. Pursuant to notice to all
parties, the Board heard oral argument on December 16, 1952. The
Union and the C. I. 0., which was permitted to intervene and file a
brief, participated in the argument. The A. F. of L. was permitted to,
and did, file a brief. The Employer did not reply or participate in
the argument.
The Board having duly considered the response, briefs, and argu-
ments, concludes that, in the interest of protecting its own processes
from further abuse, its certification of February 2, 1951, should be
considered of no further force and effect.
Now THLREFORE said certification is adjudged and declared to be of
no further force and effect.
By direction of the Board :
