Conflict Over Restraint of Labor Threatens Draft Bill
Washington reports conflict over restraints on organized labor threatening opposition to the draft bill. The House military affairs committee finished action but delayed a vote to draft a new bill, likely delaying floor consideration until next week. The measure would force men 18 to 45 to stay in war jobs or take essential work under penalties. The committee trimmed a key provision exempting workers in certified war jobs from union closed shop rules, prompting anticipated floor fights. Labor spokesmen condemn compulsory labor measures, while President Roosevelt supports the measure, uncertain without key votes from labor-friendly lawmakers.
