On March 11, 1942, the National Labor Relations Board issued its
Decision and Direction of Election 1 in the above-entitled proceeding.
Pursuant to the Direction of Election, an election by secret ballot was
conducted on March 27, 1942, under the direction and supervision of the
Regional Director for the Seventh Region (Detroit, Michigan). On
March 30, 1942, the Regional Director, acting pursuant to'Article III,
Section 9, of National Labor Relations Board Rules and Regulations-
Series 2, as amended, issued and duly served upon the parties an Elec-
tion Report. No objections to the conduct of the election or the Elec-
tion Report have been filed by any of the parties.
As to the balloting and its results, the Regional Director reported as
follows : J
Total on eligibility list------- ------------------------ ------ 330
Total ballots cast-------------------------------------------- 288
Total ballots challenged------------------------------------- 3
Total blank ballots----------------------- ------------------- 1
Total void ballots------------------------------------------- , 6
Total valid votes cast---------------------------------------- 278
Votes cast for International Union , United Automobile, Aircraft

Votes cast against International Union, United Automobile, Air-
craft and Agricultural Implement Workers of America, Affili-
ated with the C. I. 0.------------------------------------- 155
Since the counting of the challenged ballot could not affect the result
of the election, we find it unnecessary to make any determination in
respect thereto.
