FORBES FAILS TO SHOW
UP WITH IWA’s $12,000

Forbes failed to turn up at the
Supreme Court registry on Mon-
day, March 23, with the $12,000
he was ordered to pay into court
by Chief Justice Wendell Farris.

He had been given a month to
produce the cash, part of the
funds which disappeared from
the assets of Local 1-80, when
the abortive attempt was made
to split the -Union in October,
1948.

Forbes is now liable to go to
Oakalla in the same way that
his henchman Ernie Dalskog
went when Dalskog tried feebly
to pose as a martyr by not “
handing over the $130,000
strike fund of the IWA mem-
bership.

Dalskog changed his mind af-
ter a couple of weeks in jail,
