Truman Drops Fight for All-Out TaftHartley Repeal
President Truman abandons full repeal of the Taft Hartley act and seeks a compromise likely preserving injunctive powers. Speaker Rayburn signals retreat after conference with Truman as House set to vote on the Wood bill substitute. Rayburn favors new measure giving authority for anti strike injunctions and plant seizures. He would back Taft Hartley provisions on free speech, union financial disclosures, and good faith bargaining with affidavits from both labor and management officials.
