'SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL DECISION
AND
SECOND DIRECTION OF ELECTIONS
November 1 , 1944
On April 12, 1944, the National Labor Relations Board issued its
Decision and Direction of Elections in the above -entitled proceed-
ing,' and thereafter , on August 10, 1944, issued its Supplemental
Decision Certification of Representatives , and Orders .2 In the Sup-
plemental Decision , we found that in Cases Nos . 19-R-1243, 5 and 6,
the number of eligible voters not notified of the elections could have
affected the result of the elections , and accordingly set aside the elec-
tions in those cases . Therein, we stated that we would direct new
elections in those cases when the Regional Director should advise us
that normal crews were again employed by the Companies . We have
now been so advised. Therefore , We shall direct that elections by
secret ballot be held among the employees in the units found appro-
priate in Cases Nos. 19-R-1243, 5, and 6, who were employed during
the pay-roll period immediately preceding the date of this Second
Direction of Elections herein, subject to the limitations and additions
set forth in said Second Direction.
