MEMORANDUM OPINION

DAVID V. O'BRIEN, District Judge.

The question we face today is whether the six month statute of limitations embodied in § 10(b) of the National Labor Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. § 160(b) (1976), is applicable to a union member's action against his union for discriminatorily denying him strike funds due under the union's constitution. We hold that it is, and we dismiss the plaintiffs' complaint.
