sioN) and THOMAS J. GAFFNEY AND JOHN T. RAFTER, INDIVIDUALS,
PETITIONERS, and LOCAL 484, BAKERY & CONFECTIONARY WORKERS
INTERNATIONAL UNION OF AMERICA, AFL. Case No. 2+-UD-5.
January 6, 1953
Supplemental Decision and Order
On October 14, 1952, the Board issued its Decision and Direction of
Election., On October 23, 1952, the Union filed its petition for a re-
consideration of the Board's Decision and Direction of Election, in-
cluding a request for oral argument, and for leave to file a supple-
mental brief. Thereafter, the Congress of Industrial Organizations,
herein called the C. I. 0., and American Federation of Labor, and
Bakery and Confectionary Workers International Union of America,
AFL, herein called the AFL, having been granted leave to intervene,2
filed briefs amici curiae in support of the petition for reconsideration.
The Board has duly considered the petition for reconsideration and
the briefs filed in support thereof by the Union, the AFL, and the
C. I. O. Upon the basis of the entire record, we are convinced that,
aside from a modification of the direction of election as ordered here-
in, our original decision was proper and should stand. Accordingly,
the petition for reconsideration will be denied.
Order
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the petition for reconsideration be, and it
hereby is, denied upon the ground that the said petition presents no
new issues, matters, or additional facts which were not previously
considered by the Board."
