New Labor Law Spurs Debate On NLRB Powers
Gloomy unionists warn a new labor law creates a powerful general counsel for the NLRB and concentrates investigation prosecution and judging roles. Congress critics say the Wagner Act era structure is replaced by a single strong officer with broad unchecked authority and final decision power.

Secret reorganization of labor board and new mediation service
The plan requires presidential appointment and Senate confirmation with a $120,000 salary for the leader. The expanded board becomes a labor relations court handling prosecutions and juries, shifting the Labor Department toward statistics. The conciliations service is replaced by the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service outside the Labor Department, and 5,500 unsettled NLRB disputes loom as Aug. 22 approaches.

Plot to Kill Eisenhower Alba Hoax Plot to Kill Eisenhower
New York June 30 UP Elaborate precautions to save Gen Dwight D Eisenhower from assassination by SS Col Otto Skorzeny during the battle of the Bulge were taken needlessly as a German hoax, Merriam writes in Dark December. The rumor caused consternation among Allied counter intelligence officers and put troops on guard while Eisenhower remained largely behind the lines. The book contends the plan never existed beyond gossip and that intelligence failures plus overconfidence fed the surprise attack.
