In Detroit, the Foremen’s Union faced the War Labor Board over wage and recognition disputes as about 50,000 war workers faced idleness. The Brians Manufacturing plant closed after Navy Bureau of Aeronautics balked at more output, affecting nearly 10,000 Briggs workers. President Robert H Keys and the union’s executive board were summoned to explain delay and possible penalties under the war labor disputes act.
