Mine Action Case Delayed by Albanian Communications
At Albania’s request the British delegation agreed to postpone debate in the United Nations Security Council over claims that Albanian mines damaged two British warships and killed 44 men in the Corfu Channel last October. Albanian premier Enver Hoxha said his representative Hysni Kapo would depart for New York but communications delays hinder arrival. Britain allowed one week for Kapo to reach New York before seeking Friday adjournment. Meanwhile Egypt’s case against Britain over Sudan and troop withdrawal may be moved to bilateral talks, though some expect only limited UN action. The UN Human Rights Commission, chaired by Mrs. Roosevelt, resumed two-a-day sessions to draft a world bill of rights and access for grievances.

Ball amendment sparks clash over Wagner Act re employment rights
The debate centers on the Ball amendment to curb strikes and grant employers a back to work option. Ball argues it slows hair trigger strikes and returns leverage to employers while shifting enforcement to the justice department. Thomas calls it very bad, saying it would destroy re employment rights and resemble a pre Wagner act era. The proposal would outlaw certain strikes, allow back to work moves, and permit inflation of legal actions under Norris LaGuardia. About 315 pounds of alloy steel per car, including stainless steel, are used in the average passenger vehicle.
