Lewis strikes raise risk of one man power in America
Samuel Ettengill argues John L. Lewis wields excessive influence through labor disputes, challenging the Taft-Hartley framework.

The piece cites the coal and steel standoffs, presidential actions, and a $30 million pension fund as pivotal facts, urging legal limits before more economic damage occurs.
