Tugboats Return to Work in New York Harbor
Tugboats resumed operations in New York Harbor after a federal court ordered an end to picketing by the International Longshoremen's Association and required their crews to return to work. The back-to-work move came amid a 27 day dock strike that split between independent and AFL IWA unions and spread to some dock warehouses. The Waterfront Commission reported 4,142 men on duty, but still far below normal levels.

GOPs Move to Pass Labor-Hard Revision Bill
Republican majority on the Senate Labor Committee planned to ram through a Tad-Hardy labor law revision that mirrors most Eisenhower recommendations. Chairman H Alexander Smith said the panel would likely approve all but one of the president's 14 points and expected six Democrats to oppose sending the bill to the full Senate. He also anticipated a separate measure granting states and territories greater powers in labor management disputes, likely to pass with committee support.
