Court split upholds labor act challenge in Jones and Laughlin case
Federal lawyers expect an immediate Supreme Court appeal after a federal circuit court ruled the Wagner Connery Labor Relations Act unconstitutional. The three judge panel held that production and mining activities fall outside interstate commerce and that the act cannot regulate employer employee relations in production. The case involved Jones and Laughlin Steel Company firing 12 workers for union activity.

Ickes Cancels Steel Contract Over Labor Board Ruling
Secretary Ickes voided a 40086 dollar contract with Jones and Laughlin Steel of Pittsburgh for sheet steel piling on the Imperial Dam project after the National Labor Relations Board found the firm guilty of unfair labor practices. The firm allegedly led a campaign of terror against union organizing. A federal appeals court had denied the board's enforcement suit, but Interior officials say Ickes acted before that decision.

Eastman Ends Last Day as Federal Transportation Coordinator
Washington June 16 UP Joseph B Eastman began his final day in office amid a push by Senator Burton K Wheeler to extend the post for another year. The chance of passage was slim and even if approved Eastman would be a figurehead with only study powers, not ordering consolidations.
