““ * * * We think it is at least arguable that these allegations, if true, would be an unfair labor practice within the protection of § 7 and prohibition of § 8 of the Act ‘although there are differing views on whether a violation of the duty of fair representation is an unfair labor practice under the Labor Management Relations Act. * *■ *’ Humphrey v. Moore, 375 U.S. 335 , 84 S.Ct. 363 , 11 L.Ed.2d 370 (1964). Unlike Moore, however; plaintiffs’ allegations here are not contract oriented and not, therefore, ‘within the cognizance of federal and state courts.’ Smith v. Evening News Ass’n., supra.”'”
