I By Robert B. Martin j ! In This Corner ... j Arbitration cases involving people who have lost their jobs for various reasons take many an interesting turn. It ' s amazing, the number of people who have been fired and who have brought their cases before labor boards. These are peop le , understand , who feel they ' ve been wronged. And they ' ve thought strongly enough about the situation to call their bosses on the carpet of arbitra- tion to prove their cases definite- ly . . . one way or the other. One of the cases had to do with a firm that suddenly decided that all employes would have to take their turns at working Saturdays, with the stipulation that a weekday could be selected in lieu of the usual Saturday dav off. A long-time woman employe vhu , at first, selected Wednes- day in lieu of Saturday, though': the matter over and announced that because of her seniority she should be exempted from the firm ' s new day-.iff policy. She was fired , and sought arbitra- tion. Her firing was upheld on grounds that she had displayed an unwillingness to cooperate with her emp ' oyer. It was ruled a case of insubordination. Another case involved a deliveryman who became im- patient when traffic slowed. He tried to pass a car. A crackup occurred and he was ticketed by police for reckless driving. He was fired by the company. Arbitration followed and it was found that his dismissal was too severe a penalty. The board de- cided that a one-month suspen- sion from his job was . sufficient. What happens when an em- ploye is found making 1 book on horse races for fellow workers ? Dismissal . . . unless it can be established without doubt that the employe h a d not been making book on the premises of the establishment where la- was working. A manager strikes an employe. The manager is fired. \Good and reasonable cause , \ a board de- cided. A man submits a note of resignation to his emp loyer , but a short time later decides that he doesn ' t want to tjnit after all. Unless evidence of pressure on the part of management, can be brought before the board, the resignation stands. The employe had launched a binding agree- ment with his employer. And how about the man who does his job too well ? The com- pany finds that while his work is flawless , he ' s just not putting out sufficiently. Other men are accomplishing their tasks far more quickly. He ' s fired , and asks for arbitration. The ruling: Excessive conscientiousness and care on the job. A month' s suspension is sufficient. Smoking in an area where signs announcing that smoking is prohibited is just cause for dismissal. Others have lost their jobs for cussing out a superior , for raising a ruckus with fellow emp loyes (neg lect of duty) and for reporting to work in an in- toxicated condition. Quick tempers and defiance to superiors also supply reason- able grounds, for dismissal. Finally, and this may strike home to some of us , any number of firings have been up held after an employe has telephoned in \ sick , \ aiid has later been dis- covered at a ball game , woiking on a part-time job or looking for another job. Decisions vary, of course. Arbitrators take many things into consideration. They feel that the employe is as proud of his position as a human being as the employer is of his own. What ' s that boss? I ' m fired for wearing Bermuda shorts and a purple derby on the job ? 1 object! 1 demand arbitration. i i | Town and County I Central Suffolk Hosp ital Seeks Final $150 ,000 A kick-off meeting to orient vol- unteer aides to Central Suffolk hospital in Riverhead will be held Wednesday night at the Henry Perkins Hotel as the hospital' s final $150, 000-goal expansion drive gets underway.

Visiting County Judge Archibald 0. Wemple leleased both in :> \ .( >( . > bail each to await trial. No date has been set . The indictment named Clarence Edwards. II, of Crescent drive - . Port Jell' eison Station , who was fired from his $7, (>00-a-year job as highway foreman for the Brook- haven Nort h Shore district last month alter he refused to sign a waiver of immunity before testify- ing- before the Grand jury; and Charles Robinson. -17. of llalloek Landing road , Rocky Point. Robin- son operates Charle ' s Garage on llalloek Landing road near his home. District Attorney John P. Co- halan , Jr., said the matter first came to his attention two months ago . when he was notified of it by Brookhaven Highway Superin- tendent Charles W. Barraud , and the town GOP leader , Sheriff Charles R. Doniinv. Cohalan said Edwards between December , 1958 , and October 31 , 1959 , presented four false vouchers to the town for ' payment. The vouchers , ostensibly for gas pur- chases at Robinson ' s garage , were actually to cover repairs Robinson had made on a privately owned truck rented to the highway de- partment , Cohalan said. Brook- haven rents private trucks and pays for the fuel , but the indi- vidual owner must foot the bill for all repairs. The conspiracy defrauded the town out of less than $150 , Co- halan said. In other action before Judge Wemple Friday, a Bell port couple , indicted last week for allegedl y accepting unemp loyment checks while actuall y working, were re- leased in $1,000 bail each. The jury had indicted Leo J. Benima , 47 , of 42 Pace avenue , North Bellport , and his wife, Adele , 41. Assistant District Attorney Bernard C. Smith said they col- lected $722 in state unemp loyment benefits from D e c e m b e r , 1958 , through June , 1959 , while both were working part-time. Benima was working as a janit or and his wife was emp loyed as a secretary- bookkeeper , Smith said. Benima was charged with 29 counts of presenting fraudulent bids to a public ofliccr , and his wife was named in three forgery counts. Both were charged with a single count of conspiracy.
