Senate OKs Measure House Begins Work To End Airline Strike

In Washington Democrats and Republicans debate how to end the airline strike as the Senate passes strikestopping legislation. A House Commerce Committee hearing will feature Labor Secretary Wirtz and negotiator Curtin with Machinists union representative Ramsey. Chairman Harley Staggers says hearings may last two to three days before deciding on support or rejection of the joint resolution. President Johnson would get authority to extend a 20 day or six month window to end the strike, a plan Labor and GOP critics largely oppose. Senator Clark warns lawmakers will be labeled strikebreakers back home, amid an election year climate. Some union leaders anticipate slower action if Congress acts to halt the strike.
