Pqint Rollers Declored legol

In a recent decision rendered in Detroit, Michigan, Judge Thomas F. Maher found that both pressure-fed and pan-fed rollers for applying paint "could be used effectively r,vithout any risk insofar as health or safety are concerned."

He thus declared illegal a union ban against paint rollers. It is significant because nowhere in the United States under common law has there been a legal precedent clearly defining the right of the employer to use advanced tools and methods.

Basis of the decision was a suit brought by the Detroit chapter of the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America gainst the Painters District Councrl of Detroit (AFL). The union had attempted to justify its ban against the new, improved painting tool by charging that paint rollers were injurious to the health and safety of the painters.
