Novel Lines of Defense in Hat Strike Case Heads
In the Associated Hat Manufacturers suit against fifteen hat makers who defied the organization, four attachments were reduced and four upheld after Judge Burpee ruled. The case centers on alleged breaches of by laws, including shop openings, use of the union label, and settling disputes with labor unions rather than the employers’ association. The defense argues officers cannot delegate corporate power to an outside body, and if overruled, contends the agreement unlawfully restrains business. The trial moves toward June 14 with badges of damages and anticipated Supreme Court guidance.
