Auto Industry Resists Labor Union Recognition in Nationwide Disputes
In Washington on March 15 automobile spokesmen refused to admit jurisdiction over worker disputes while William Green of the AFL urged passage of the Wagner Bill. General Motors official Knudsen asserted the firm will not permit works councils or outside representation and pledged to avoid coercion of employees into union or nonunion status. In Racine Wisconsin police used tear gas and clubs to disperse about 400 striking workers at the J I Case plant as they attempted to block office workers from entering the factory.
