Court tests of New Deal acts planned to wage fight
Court tests of major New Deal labor laws loom as steel, autos, and coal seek court reviews of the Wagner act after a new labor relations board is created. Administrations count on broad commerce clause interpretation to justify regulation of industrial labor relations amid opposition arguing no interstate commerce link. The Wagner bill, already passed by both houses, would empower the labor board, outlaw company dominated unions, and ban unfair labor practices, while the Guffey coal stabilization bill faces quick court action if enacted.
