Before SOBELOFF, Senior Circuit Judge, and WINTER and CRAVEN, Circuit Judges.
The Baltimore Regional Joint Board, Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, AFL-CIO Union prosecutes this appeal from a judgment of the District Court imposing upon it joint and several liability with Sagner, Inc., a clothing manufacturer. The employer discriminated against certain women employees by paying them less than their male counterparts for equivalent work. Sagner finally admitted the discrimination and offered to make restitution. But at the instigation of the appellant Union and in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq., the major part of the arrearage due was diverted to increase the pay of another group of employees also represented by the Union.
