The AFL executive council demanded Edwin S. Smith be dropped from the National Labor Relations Board and urged President Roosevelt not to reappoint him, citing his alleged CIO ties and communistic influence. The group praised colleagues Leiserson and Millis for cleansing the board and warned of silk plant closures and job losses totaling about 50,000 as defense demands rise. The AFL plans a survey of non-defense industries and may seek OPM actions to curb priority orders and explore substitute materials.
