1. ““[A] hearing has been held before a Trial Committee as required by the constitution of the International Longshoremen’s Association. That Committee did hold a lengthy hearing and did make its report to the Executive Committee as required by the union’s constitution. The report of the Trial Committee to the Executive Committee was to the effect that a trusteeship should be imposed upon Local 1830 for reasons which, in their opinion, were included under the provisions of Title 29 U.S.C.A. § 462 . While this Court might not agree with all of the conclusions reached by the Trial Committee, and while it may or may not have reached the same conclusions as did the Executive Committee, nevertheless, a review of the lengthy transcript of the hearings held by the Trial Committee indicate to this Court that the trusteeship imposed by the International Longshoremen’s Association was imposed in good faith and in accordance with the requirements of the constitution of the International Longshoremen’s Association and the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act, and therefore presumed to be a valid trusteeship for a period of eighteen months.” 314 F.Supp. at 453 .”

2. ““It is not the function of this Court to substitute its judgment for that of the Trial Committee. As long as there is substantial evidence upon which to base the judgment of the Trial Committee, this Court does not have the right to set their finding aside. This Court does find, as a fact, that there is substantial testimony upon which to base the Trial Committee’s conclusion * * 314 F.Supp. at 454 .”
