House seeks Roosevelts view on Wagner Labor Disputes Bill
House leaders on Friday moved to obtain a definite expression from President Roosevelt on the Wagner Labor Disputes Bill before floor action. The Senate passed the measure 63 to 12 without amendment and supporters say the President wants it enacted, though he has not publicly endorsed it. The bill would authorize permanent collective bargaining and create a national labor relations board, potentially housed in the Labor Department, a change AFL supports but Senator Wagner opposes. The measure faces opposition from many industrialists and employers.
