Roosevelt Urges Broad Labor Law Reforms In Message
President Roosevelt’s 1931 congressional address urges immediate reenactment of the employers liability law with scope limited to interstate cases, calls for government compensation for federal workers injured on the job, and condemns injunction abuse. He recommends federal supervision of interstate railways, valuation of assets, and rate control, plus reform of the Sherman act and stronger oversight of big interstate businesses.
