Stipulation for Entry of Order Amending Supplemental Decree
Now come the National Labor Relations Board, by and through its undersigned Assistant General Counsel, and Wilmapeg Industries Corporation, by and through the undersigned attorneys for the trustee in bankruptcy thereof, and stipulate for the entry of the annexed order amending Supplemental Decree, and for such purpose state as follows:
1. That on October 9, 1961, pursuant to the petition of the National Labor Relations Board, a Supplemental Decree was entered by the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
2. That in a portion of the said order it was inadvertently provided that the said respondent, Wilmapeg Industries Corporation, “through its trustee in bankruptcy, Yale L. Kerby, shall make whole the discriminatees named *

4. That such result was not intended by the National Labor Relations Board in its entry of the said order, it being merely its intent to provide for the entry of the said decree against the bankrupt corporation in order that the said discriminatees could share in the distribution to unsecured creditors of the said bankruptcy estate upon the conclusion of the administration thereof, pursuant to an understanding heretofore reached by the National Labor Relations Board through its attorneys with the attorneys for the trustee in bankruptcy for said bankrupt corporation.
5. That a Proof of Claim was filed by the National Labor Relations Board in behalf of said discriminatees in the said bankruptcy estate in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division, in Bankruptcy, case number 45427 on November 9, 1960 in the amounts set forth in said Supplemental Decree, but as an unsecured claim, it being acknowledged by the National Labor Relations Board that the said persons have no preferred, priority or secured position in the said bankruptcy matter, but are merely unsecured creditors therein.
6. That it is therefore hereby stipulated that the annexed order amending the said Supplemental Decree be entered by the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in order to fully carry out the understanding of the petitioner and the said respondent.
