Madden backs LaFollette bill on oppressive labor practices
J. Warren Madden, head of the National Labor Relations Board, urged a Senate panel to authorize criminal penalties for oppressive labor practices under the LaFollette bill. He argued six months in jail and fines up to 10,000 dollars would help enforce the Wagner act and close its gaps, citing labor spies, strikebreakers, armed guards, and riot weapons as prohibited. Madden said the Wagner act lacks criminal penalties and is inadequately applied, supporting enactment of the LaFollette proposal.
