Taft-Hartley injunction and Air Force plant sale approved
A House Armed Services subcommittee backed a proposal to buy back for 3.5 million an aircraft factory sold as surplus in 1948. The San Diego plant, leased by the government and run by Consolidated Vultee, cost 11 million to build and later produced F-102 jets for Convair after the Korean War began. Communist China pledged readiness to help the Soviet bloc if war comes to Europe while seeking negotiated steps on Formosa.
