HOUSE EMPLOYEES UNION, No. 322, PETITIONER
Case No. 5-RC-29
SUPPLEMENTAL DECISION
AND
ORDER AMENDING
DECISION AND DIRECTION OF ELECTION
August 10, 1948
On June 18, 1948, the National Labor Relations Board, hereinafter
called the Board, issued a Decision and Direction of Election in this
-proceeding.'
On July 6, 1948, Thalhimer Brothers, Inc., herein called the Em-
-ployer, filed a motion for clarification of the Board's Decision and
Direction of Election on the grounds that the Board failed to indicate
its views in regard to an alleged "dispute" between the parties as to
whether or not the Employer operates four separate warehouses, or
only one with warehousing activities in the remaining three buildings.
It is the Employer's contention that by failing to resolve this issue,
the Board has placed in doubt the inclusion or exclusion of employees
from the unit in the four buildings involved. More specifically, the
Employer requests clarification as to the status of : (1) employees in the
Process Section on the fifth floor of the Sydnor and Hundley Building
engaged in the handling, trucking, checking, and marking of merchan-
dise for the selling department, and the return of surplus merchandise
-to the second, third or fourth floors for warehousing; (2) employees
employed in the display workroom in the Sydnor and Hundley Build-
ing; (3) employees employed in the furniture repair room in the Sixth
and Cary Street Building: (4) employees employed in the floor cover-
ing workroom in the Sixth and Cary Street Building; and (5) employ-
ees employed in the electrical appliance repair workroom in the Clay
Street Building. The Petitioner, on the other hand, in its reply to the
motion of the Employer, contends that the unit found appropriate by
the Board in its Decision and Direction of Election needs no further
