Senate seeks quick passage of airline labor bill
The Senate moved to act by nightfall on a compromise plan to end the 28 day airline machinists strike. Congress would order a 30 day return to work, the President could appoint a mediation panel for 60 days, and extend the panel for 90 more days if no agreement is reached. Strong opposition from organized labor and debate over who finalizes the decision marked the session.
