...BATTLE of District 65 of the Distributive Workers of America to hold a union-forming election in the Medical Area should soon be over. Already, much of the dust kicked up during the year-long dispute has settled; as the rhetoric and mutual recriminations die down, both sides patiently await the National Labor Relations Board's initial decision on whether it will accept the case on appeal.
