Court Bars Appeals to Shun Goods
The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 3 that unions may not use hot cargo appeals to pressure workers to avoid handling goods. It held such appeals cannot defend violations of the Taft-Hartley Act, while employer voluntary observance of hot cargo is not a Taft-Hartley violation. Justice Frankfurter wrote the majority. Justice Douglas dissented. The Teamsters have pressed hot cargo clauses in contracts.
