1 THE PLAIN DEALER, TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1974 Perk plans to sue Ohio on highway charges By Joseph L. Wagner Ralph J. Perk said yesterday he will go to to force the "Ohio Department of Highways" to stop charging major to cities a portion of freeway construction. (The department became part of the Department of Transportation last year.) Perk said a suit to be NLRB judge blasts Farah 'lawlessness' New York Times Service decision, a WASHINGTON In a sweeping and harshly worded the Farah National Labor Relations Board judge accused sale "lawlessness" Manufacturing Co. of Texas yesterday of wholeand ordered the company to restore all tion striking workers to their jobs and permit union organizaof its factories.

The board's administrative law judge, Walter H. Maloney declared that Farah, one of the nation's biggest pants manufacturers, had engaged in "a wide variety of unlawful conduct" and had perpetrated "evil" against its employes over the last four years. "This respondent," Maloney wrote, "has been repeatues edly as directed if to mend its lawless ways, and yet it continon nothing had happened, pursuing its policy of flouting the (National Labor Relations 3 Act) and trampling on the rights of its employes as if there were no act, no board and no Ten Commandments." ousted The for judge ordered the company to rehire six employes union activities and to give them back pay. He directed that the approximately 2,000 workers who went on strike after the dismissals be taken back to work at their old levels of seniority. The order also requires the company to allow Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America access to the plant and its facilities for the purpose of organizing workers.

Finally, it orders the company to pay legal costs of the union and the National Labor Relations Board. The company has 20 days to appeal the decision and ask for a review by the full board. spokesman for the company had no comment. Do strikers, almost all Mexican-Americans, walked off 'their jobs May 10, 1972. While they were concerned about wages and working conditions, the major strike issues were job security and the right to join a union.

Bissler Sons funeral home. There will be no calling filed soon will also demand refund of money that cities with populations of more than 100,000 have paid for highways, an amount he estimated at "tens of millions of dollars" for Cleveland. Perk made the statement to The Plain Dealer shortly after City Council approved a administration request for $1.25 million for the 1.3-mile section of Interstate 90 between Carabel Ave. NW and Joslyn Rd. NW.

The $1.25 million represents the city's required share of the $25-million project. The state pays $1.25 million and the federal government $22.5 million. City Hall observers interpreted Perk's suit as a move to capitalize on a statewide issue, as he is running for the U.S. Senate. Perk said he ordered Law Director Herbert R.

Whiting to prepare the suit for filing in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. "This regulation that cities with populations of more than 1 100.000 must pay is just a rule of the state highway department. not a state Perk said. "Gov. Gilligan could change the rule tomorrow i he wanted.

"The state builds freeways all over Ohio and does not charge smaller cities. But they tear up the larger cities and take property off the tax duplicate then charge us extra for the highway." Perk said he has tried several times to discuss the matter with Transportation Director J. Phillip Richley, "but he refuses to discuss the merits of it." Planning Director Norman Krumholz said taxpayers in the major cities actually pay double for freeways. He said they pay taxes on fuel which flow into state and federal highways, funds then also see a portion of their income and property taxes go for highways. In other action, council's community development committee was authorized to visit Baltimore.

Boylan said he will continue to oversee the program. "I'll still be running the program," he said, after announcing his candidacy for the Republican nomination for Ohio attorney general at GOP headquarters here. Impact Cities is federally funded.

Since the Hatch Act bars anyone paid with federal funds from engaging in partisan political activity, Boylan had to quit as director. After his resignation, Boylan was appointed by Mayor Ralph J. Perk as an executive assistant at a salary of $20,700 (his former salary was The city, not the federal government, will pay his salary now. Boylan, 33, said his former assistants, Donald Bogosian and Capt. James Murray, will become codirectors of Impact Cities.

Bogosian will be in charge of administration and Murray of planning and evaluation. Perk said yesterday he asked Boylan to continue as Impact Cities director because he is doing a good job. Nicholas L. Demos, court specialist for the Law Enforcement Assistance Agency, which dispenses federal funds to Impact Cities, said as long as Boylan is in a coordinating role but does not have the title of Impact Cities director, there would be no conflict between his politicking and federal regulations. Boylan, a former assistant Ohio attorney general and federal prosecutor, indicated he would campaign on a get-tough attitude toward criminals.

Asked if this would be hard to do against Atty. Gen. William J. Brown, a Democrat who is also considered a lawand-order man, Boylan said: "I don't think he is one. He waited three years to introduce drug legislation.

Why, is a question he will have to answer. The city of Cleveland had a comprehensive drug program submitted to the federal government four months after I came to the city (in March 1972)." Boylan, who heads the mayor's smut squad and worked for ex-Ohio Atty. Gen. William B. Saxbe, who is now U.S.

Scherer, the association's legislative director, told the Ohio Legislative Service Commission's study committee on mass. transit. The committee, chaired by Sen. Anthony 0. Calabrese, D-22.

is studying the feasibility of establishing Amtrak service linking Cleveland, Cincinnati and communities between. The service would require state and local subsidies. Scherer called for a supplemental appropriation by the Legislature to increase state aid to mass transit for the biennium from the current $2.8 million to $15 million. The association represents transit authorities and companies throughout the state. Scherer said the association does not oppose the Amtrak proposal.

but does think it should not get top priority in state funding. Scherer told the committee that because of the fuel crisis, thousands of Ohioans will have to turn to public transportation to get to their jobs and shopping centers. He added that already ailing bus and rapid transit lines do not have the equipment and facilities to handle the increased ridership. which he said is expected to be nationwide. Calabrese said costs of starting the Amtrak service could not be estimated until track conditions along the 250-mile Penn Central route are studied.
