Senate clash over US strike bill in tense Senate fight
A bitter Senate battle looms over President Truman's demand for drastic anti strike legislation after passage in the House. Reports say an unusual alliance forms against the measure, with labor unions and labor allied groups opposing a plan viewed as threatening workers. The issue centers on powers to curb strikes and potential impact on the American labor movement amid international concerns. The Navy and maritime unions reportedly rejected a recent shipowner-led offer, while Canadian unions react to broader labor tensions. Progress on the bill is uncertain as negotiations continue.
