Board ruling condemns goon squads in labor strike case
The National Labor Relations Board found the CIO United Furniture Workers guilty of seven unfair labor practices stemming from a 1947 strike at Smith Cabinet Manufacturing in Salem Indiana. It held the union and its Salem local and officials responsible for violent picket actions, while noting the plant later reopened after a court injunction. The decision targets goon squad tactics used to pressure workers for recognition, with enforcement potential in federal court if violations continue.
