Supreme Court rules unions must fairly represent all workers

It upheld that unions must represent whites and Negroes equally in the railway and airline sectors under the Railway Labor Act and that the NLRB can designate a single bargaining agent for all workers. The decisions allow individual unions to set membership but require fair treatment for everyone.
