Supreme Court allows state bans on mass picketing
The Supreme Court ruled 6 to 3 that the Taft Hartley Act does not bar states from banning mass picketing, force, and threats by strikers. Justice Reed wrote for the majority, while Justice Douglas dissented. The decision stems from a Kohler Co. strike in Kohler Wisconsin where the Wisconsin Employment Relations Board had ordered the UAW to cease mass picketing and other tactics.
