Limited Debate On Labor Bill Sought By Barkley
Democratic Leader Barkley urged the Senate to curtail remarks and push to action on labor legislation with OPA and atomic energy control bills listed as must pass before a July recess. Pepper favored a quick vote on his welfare funds amendment, while Ball and others maneuvered around Byrd’s union administration provision. The measure centers on a strengthened federal conciliation service and protecting farmers delivering perishables.
