CERTIFICATION
March 16, 1950
Pursuant to the Decision and Direction of Elections issued herein
by the National Labor Relations Board on August 26, 1949,1 and the
Board's Order Amending Direction of Elections issued September 22,
1949, separate elections by secret ballot were conducted on October 13,
1949, under the direction and supervision of the Regional Director
for the Twenty-first Region among the employees in the units found
appropriate in the Decision and Direction of Elections. At the close
of the elections, Tallies of Ballots were issued and duly served by the
Regional Director upon the parties concerned. These tallies showed
that a number of ballots had been challenged in each election, and that
in most cases the number of challenges was sufficient to affect the re-
sult of the elections. Thereafter, objections were filed to the conduct
of the elections and to conduct affecting the results of the elections.
These objections are discussed in detail below. Thereupon, in accord-
ance with the Board's Rules and Regulations, the Regional Director
conducted an investigation of the challenges and the objections. On
January 11, 1950, the Regional Director issued and duly served upon
1 85 NLRB 902.

1156 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
the parties his Report on Elections, Objections and Challenged Ballots,
which is discussed below. Exceptions were filed to this Report?
A. The Independents
As to the employees of the Independent Motion Picture Producers
Association 3 the Tally of Ballots showed that of approximately 15
eligible voters, 14 cast votes, of which 9 were for Moving Picture
Painters Local 644, Brotherhood of Painters, Decorators and Paper-
hangers of America, A. F. L. (hereinafter called Painters), 2 for
International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees and Moving
Picture Machine Operators of the United States and Canada, A. F. L.
(hereinafter called IATSE), and 3 ballots were challenged. The
-lumber of challenged ballots is not sufficient to affect the results of
this election.
On October 21, 1949, IATSE filed objections to the conduct of this
,election on the following grounds :
1. The 15 persons employed during the eligibility period fixed by the
:Board were not representative of the alleged normal complement of
50 to 75 persons employed by the Independents. Thus, of approxi-
mately 30 Independents, the employees of only 5 were eligible to vote,
and a survey over a number of months next preceding the eligibility
.date showed that "an approximate average of 45 painters were
employed by approximately seven" of the Independents.
2. A majority of the voters were restrained in their freedom of
choice as a result of the alleged refusal of certain of the Independents,
particularly Cathedral Films, Inc:, to hire or retain in their employ-
ment any persons who were not members of Painters in good standing.
These allegations were supported by affidavits of members or repre-
sentatives of IATSE.
3. Certain supervisors coerced employees to vote for Painters by
threats of economic reprisal.
In view of the foregoing, IATSE requested that the election be
set aside and a new eligibility date chosen which would assure a
representative and an uncoerced vote.
The Regional Director investigated the foregoing objections and
filed a report, in which he found as follows :
1. During the 5-month period next preceding the conduct of the
election, the 5 Independents whose employees voted in the election
employed an estimated average of 20 painters. During this period 2
other Independents employed a total of 25 painters for a period of 2
2 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 (b) of the National Labor Relations Act, the
Board has delegated its powers in connection with these cases to a three-member panel
[Members Houston, Reynolds, and Murdock].
3 Hereinafter called the Independents.
ASSOCIATION OF MOTION PICTURE PRODUCERS, INC. 1157
weeks. The rate of future employment by the Independent is unpre-
dictable. The eligibility list used in the election was agreed to, and
signed, by IATSE before the election.
2. Investigation disclosed no evidence of discrimination or coercion,
as alleged by IATSE.4
The Regional Director, accordingly, recommended that the fore-
,going objections be overruled as not raising substantial or material
issues with respect to the conduct of the election. IATSE filed excep-
tions to these recommendations, renewing the contentions set forth in
IATSE's objections. We find that these exceptions do not raise sub-
stantial or material issues and they are hereby overruled.
As Painters has received a majority of the valid votes cast in the
election among the employees of the Independents in the unit found
appropriate in the Board's original Decision herein, we shall certify
Painters as the representatives of such employees.
B. The Majors
On October 13, 1949, a manual ballot election was held among the
employees of the members of the Association of Motion Picture Pro-
ducers, Inc. (hereinafter called the Majors) including, among others,
Hal Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios. In the
Board's original Decision herein the employees of the two latter
studios were included in the same unit with the employees of the other
members of the Majors, because of the history of collective bargaining
by these two Employers, together with the other Majors, through the
Association of Motion Picture Producers, Inc. However, we are ad-
ministratively advised that Hal Roach Studios, Inc., severed its rela-
tions with this Association on April 20, 1949, and Samuel Goldwyn
Studios did likewise on July 17, 1949.
The election resulted as follows :
1. Approximate number of eligible voters--------------------- 826
2. Votes cast for IATSE------------------------------------ 95
3. Votes cast for Painters----------------------------------- 69
4. Challenged ballots--------------------------------------- 649
The votes cast by employees of Hal Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel
Goldwyn Studios, were impounded separately by the Regional Di-
rector, pending decision by the Board on the question of their inclusion
in the Majors' unit.
4 Similar . allegations, of discrimination and coercion were contained in charges filed by
IATSE in Cathedral Films, Inc ., Case No . 21-CA-609. The Regional Director refused to
issue a complaint on these charges and IATSE ' s appeal from such refusal has been dis-
missed by the General Counsel. The Board is not empowered to review the General Counsel's
refusal to issue a complaint . Times Square Stores Corporation , 79 NLRB 361 ; Columbia

1158 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
1. The objections
On October 18, 1949, Painters filed objections to the conduct of the,
election among the employees of the Majors and to conduct affecting
the results of such election. These objections allege that the Regional
Director violated the Act and Section 203.61 of the Board's Rules and
Regulations, by requiring certain of the employees voting in the elec-
tion to execute a questionnaire calling for information as to the em-
ployment history of the voter and as to his efforts, if any, to obtain
reinstatement by a member of the Association of Motion Picture
Producers, Inc. Painters contends that this requirement interfered
with the freedom of choice of the persons receiving the questionnaire,
that such persons construed the questionnaire as a "tacit direction of'
how to vote," that some of them failed to vote for Painters because of
the alleged practice of the Majors of employing only members of'
IATSE or those who agreed to vote for IATSE. Painters, accord-
ingly, requested that the election be set aside and that Painters be.
given a hearing on the foregoing contentions.
In his report of January 11, 1950, the Regional Director states that
the questionnaire referred to in Painters' objections was given to 303
individuals who voted in the election, but whose names did not appear
on the payroll of any of the Majors for the eligibility period; that
these individuals claimed to be eligible to vote as strikers who were
entitled to be reinstated to employment with some one of the Majors
that the purpose of the questionnaires was to elicit information neces-
sary to establish this claim; that such information is normally re-
quested by a Board agent in any case where a person not on an
employer's payroll during the eligibility period seeks to vote in an
election conducted among employees of such employer ; that there is
no evidence to support Painters' allegation that the use of this ques-
tionnaire interfered with any voter's freedom of choice; that rep-
resentatives of Painters, before the election, agreed to the use of this
questionnaire; that Painters' allegations of discrimination against
Painters by the Majors have been the subject matter of charges filed
by Painters, which have been dismissed by the General Counsel. The
Regional Director finds, therefore, that the foregoing objections raise
no substantial issues, and recommends that they be overruled.'
Painters excepts to these recommendations, denying that it con-
sented to the use of the questionnaires and renewing in substance the
contentions contained in the charges, which, as indicated in the Board's.
original Decision herein, have been dismissed by the General Counsel.
5 See footnote 4, supra.
ASSOCIATION OF MOTION PICTURE PRODUCERS , INC. 1159
In view of all the foregoing circumstances, and upon the entire
record in this case, we find that Painters ' exceptions raise no substan-
tial or material issues, and they are hereby overruled.
2. The challenges
As the number of challenges in this election was sufficient to affect
the result of the election, the Regional Director, pursuant to Section
203.61 of the Board's Rules and Regulations, investigated the issues
raised by the challenges. In his Report of January 11, 1950, referred
to above, the Regional Director states that 339 ballots cast by the
persons listed in Appendix A, who were employed by the Majors
•during the eligibility period, were challenged by Painters on the fol-
lowing grounds :
1. The challenged voters were compelled, as a condition of employ-
inent, to join, or to agree to vote for, IATSE.
2. The challenged voters were employed pursuant to a discrimina-
tory agreement between their Employer and IATSE to hire only
members of IATSE.
The Regional Director recommended that these ballots be opened
and counted. Painters excepts to this recommendation. As the fore-
going grounds of Painters' challenges are not supported by any
evidence, and relate to the same matters as were the subject of the
charges filed by Painters, which were dismissed by the General Counsel,
as stated above, we find no merit in either of the grounds of Painters'
challenges. We shall, therefore, overrule such challenges and direct
that the ballots of the employees listed in Appendix A be opened and
counted.
The Board agent and IATSE challenged 274 ballots cast by persons
who were not employed in the appropriate unit during the eligibility
period. Painters contend that these individuals were strikers en-
titled to reinstatement. The Regional Director found no evidence to
support this contention and recommended that the ballots of these
individuals be neither opened nor counted. Painters excepted to this
recommendation, renewing the contentions of discrimination by the
Majors against members of Painters which have heretofore been
rejected by the General Counsel, as stated above. We find no merit in
these contentions and we shall therefore sustain the challenges to the
ballots of these employees , and shall not direct that those ballots be
opened or counted.
The Board agent and IATSE challenged the ballots of the eight
voters listed in Appendix B because their names did not appear on the
1160 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
eligibility list furnished by the Majors. In his Report, the Regional
Director states that investigation has shown that these persons were in
fact employed by the Majors in an eligible category during the eli-
gibility period, and he recommends that their ballots be opened and
counted.6 We shall so direct.
Listed in Appendix C are five individuals who voted under challenge,
and who, the Regional Director reports, were at no time employed by
any of the Majors. We adopt the Regional Director's recommenda-
tion 7 that these ballots be neither opened nor counted.
The Regional Director reports, in addition, that Joseph Haecker,
although acting in good faith, cast two ballots, both under challenge.
We agree with the Regional Director's recommendation 8 that the
ballot cast by Haecker at RKO Radio Pictures, Inc., be voided.
3. The impounded ballots of employees of Roach and Goldwyn
As already stated, the ballots cast by employees of Samuel Goldwyn
Studios and Hal Roach Studios, Inc., were impounded separately
pending a determination by the Board whether, in view of the dis-
affiliation of these two Employers from the Association of Motion
Picture Producers, Inc., their employees should still be treated as part
of the Majors' association-wide unit. The Regional Director makes
no recommendation on this issue.
In its exceptions to the Regional Director's Report, IATSE urges
that the Board continue to treat the employees of -Hal Roach Studios,
Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios as part of the Majors' association-
wide unit. IATSE contends, in effect, that to hold otherwise would
permit the individual Employers to nullify, at will, the Board's unit
determination. However, the Board has heretofore set aside a finding
that a multiemployer unit is appropriate, 'vhen it later appeared that
the employers of the employees in such unit had abandoned joint
action.9 Moreover, there is no evidence in this case that the disaffilia-
tions from the Association were for the purpose of influencing the
results of the election 10
Absent any other objection to the severance of the employees of
Hal Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios from the as-
e No specific exception was filed to this recommendation.
' There was no specific exception to this recommendation.
8 There was no specific exception to this recommendation.

10 Both disaffiliations occurred prior to the Board's original Decision and Direction of
Elections of August 26, 1949, in which the Board found appropriate a unit comprising the
employees of all the Majors Including Roach and Goldwyn.
ASSOCIATION OF MOTION PICTURE PRODUCERS, INC. 1161
sociation-wide unit of the Majors, and upon the entire record in this
case, the Board makes the following :
SUPPLEMENTAL FINDINGS OF FACT
(1) The members of the Association of Motion Picture Producers
Inc. (the Majors) named in our original Decision and Direction of
Elections herein are each engaged in commerce within the meaning
of the National Labor Relations Act.
(2) The appropriate unit:
In our original Decision with regard to the scope of the unit we
found, upon the petition of IATSE, that a separate unit consisting of
the employees of all the Majors, including, among others, Hal Roach
Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios, was appropriate for the
purposes of collective bargaining, within the meaning of Section 9
(b) of the Act. This determination was based upon the history of
joint bargaining by all the Majors through the Association of Motion
Picture Producers, Inc.
It is not disputed, and we find, that Hal Roach Studios, Inc.,
ceased to be a member of that Association on April 20, 1949, and that
Samuel Goldwyn Studios ceased to be a member thereof on July 17,
1949. We find, therefore, that these two Employers have elected to
pursue individual courses of action with respect to their labor rela-
tions, and that their employees are no longer included in the associa-
tion-wide unit of the Majors heretofore found appropriate 11
Accordingly, we hereby amend the unit finding with respect to the
Majors in our original Decision in this case, and we hereby find ap-
propriate for collective bargaining purposes within the meaning of
Section 9 (b) of the Act the following employees of the members of
the Association of Motion Picture Producers, Inc., excluding Hal
Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios: 11
All scenic artists, painters, paperhangers, decorators, sign writers,
matte-shot artists, advertising artists, title artists, and their appren-
tices and assistants, excluding set decorators, guards, foreman scenic
artist, head paint foreman, foreman painter, foreman advertising
artist, and all other supervisors.
A neither of the Petitioners herein has mainfested any desire to
represent the employees of Samuel Goldwyn Studios or of Hal Roach
Studios, Inc., in separate units, we shall set aside the election and
"Johnson Optical Company, 87 NLRB 539.
12 The members of the Association remaining in the unit as amended herein are :
Columbia Pictures Corp., Loew's Inc ., Paramount Pictures, Inc., Republic Productions,
Inc., RICO Radio Pictures, Inc., Twentieth Century Fox Films Corp., Warner Brothers
Pictures, Inc., and Universal Pictures Co., Inc.
1162 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
dismiss the petition of IATSE,73 in regard to the employees of these
two Employers.
In view of our decision herein, we need not consider the challenges
to the ballots cast by persons who voted as employees or former em-
ployees of Hal Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios.
C. Ressan, Inc.
Ressan, Inc., is not affiliated with either the Association of Motion
Picture Producers, Inc. (the Majors), or the Independent Motion
Picture Producers Association (the Independents). It is 1 of the 7
"unaffiliated Employers" for whom the Board in its original Deci-
sion herein directed separate elections. A mail ballot election was
conducted among the employees of Ressan, Inc., the ballots being re-
turnable on or before October 13, 1949. Of approximately 60 eligible
voters, 7 voted for IATSE, 2 voted for Painters, and 47 were
challenged.
In this election the Regional Director enclosed with the mail ballots
questionnaires identical with those used in the election among the
employees of the Majors, as set forth above.
1. The objections
On October 18, 1949, Painters filed objections to the foregoing elec-
tion, which objections raise substantially the same issues with respect
to the propriety of the use of the questionnaires as are discussed above
in connection with the Majors' election. The Regional Director rec-
ommends that these objections be overruled as raising no substantial
issues. Painters excepts to this recommendation.
We find that the exceptions raise no substantial or material issues
and they are hereby overruled.
2. The challenges
The number of challenges in this election is sufficient to affect the
result of the election.
Painters challenged 18 ballots for the same reasons as it challenged
the ballots of those voting in the Majors' election, as stated above.
The Regional Director found that the voters thus challenged were
employed by the Employer during the eligibility period and recom-
mended that their ballots be opened and counted. There was no ex-
13 Painters ' petition did not relate to any of the employees of the Majors , and in our
original Decision Painters was, for that reason, not accorded a place on the ballot in the
election directed among the employees of the Majors. However , in our Order Amending
Direction of Election issued September 22, 1949, Painters was accorded a place on the
ballot in such election.
ASSOCIATION OF MOTION PICTURE PRODUCERS, INC. 1163'
ception to this recommendation. We find no merit in the challenges-
and they are hereby overruled. We shall direct that these challenged.
ballots be opened and counted.
The votes of 29 other individuals were challenged. Ballots had.
been mailed to these voters at the request of Painters, who alleged
that these individuals had been locked out and were entitled to rein-
statement. The Regional Director's investigation disclosed no sup-
port for this allegation, and he recommends that none of these 29'
ballots be opened or counted.14 We shall so direct.
D. Motion Picture Center Studios
A mail ballot election was conducted among the employees of Motion
Picture Center Studios, an unaffiliated employer. Of approximately
23 eligible voters, 6 voted for IATSE, 3 voted for Painters, and 12'
ballots were challenged. Questionnaires identical with those dis
cussed above were enclosed with the ballots.
1. Objections
In objections filed to the conduct of this. election, Painters ques-
tioned the propriety of the use of the questionnaires, raising the same
issues as have already been considered. The Regional Director recoin--
mended that these objections be overruled as raising no substantial
issues.. Painters excepts to this recommendation. We find that these
exceptions do not raise any material or substantial issue, and they are
hereby overruled.
2. Challenges .
The number of challenges is sufficient to affect the result of this
election.. Painters challenged the ballots of 12 individuals whose
names appeared on the list, furnished by the Employer, of persons
employed by it during the eligibility period. The challenges raise the
same issues as are raised by Painters' challenges in the other elections
discussed above. The Regional Director recommends that all 12
challenged ballots be opened and counted.15 We find no merit in the
challenges, and they are hereby overruled. We shall, therefore, direct
that these 12 ballots be opened and counted.
E. Pine-Thomas Productions
A mail ballot election was conducted among the employees of Pine-
Thomas Productions, an unaffiliated Employer. Of approximately 10
eligible voters, 4 voted for Painter, 3 voted for IATSE, and 1 ballot
" There was no exception to this recommendation.
11 There was no exception to this recommendation.
1164 DECISIONS OF NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD
was challenged. The challenged ballot may be determinative of the
result of the election.
No objections were filed by Painters or IATSE with respect to this
election. Painters challenged one ballot, raising the same issues as
are raised by Painters' challenges in the other elections. The Regional
Director states that the name of the challenged voter appears on the
list, furnished by the Employer, of persons in its employ during the
eligibility period, and he recommends that the challenged ballot be
opened and counted. There was no exception to this recommendation.
We find. no merit in the challenge and it is hereby overruled. We shall,
therefore, direct that the challenged ballot be opened and counted.
DIRECTION
By virtue of and pursuant to the power vested in the Board by
Section 9 (c) of the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, and
pursuant to Section 203.61 of National Labor Relations Board Rules
and Regulations, it is hereby
DIRECTED that the Regional Director for the Twenty-first Region
shall, within ten (10) days from the date of this Direction, open and
count only those challenged ballots which are designated below, and
thereafter prepare and cause to be served upon the the parties a Sup-
plemental Tally of Ballots, including therein the count of said chal-
lenged ballots.
1. The ballots cast by the persons listed in Appendix A.
2. The ballots cast by the persons listed in Appendix B,.
3. The 18 ballots cast in the election among employees of Ressan,
Inc., which were challenged by Painters.
4. The 12 ballots cast in the election among employees of Motion
Picture Center Studios, which were challenged by Painters.
5. The ballot cast in the election among employees of Pine-Thomas
Productions, which was challenged by Painters.
ORDER
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that in Case No. 21-R-4087, the election be
set aside and the petition be dismissed, in regard to employees of Hal
Roach Studios, Inc., and Samuel Goldwyn Studios.
