The Judiciary Committee has learned that the judge, who sat on a 1967 case involving the Brunswick Corp., bought stock now valued at $18,000 between the time of the argument and the release of the decision in favor of the company.

Since June, Feather has been jawboning his union chiefs on the virtues of labor discipline on the shop floor.
