Truman Calls for Four Point Labor Program in Joint Session
President Truman urged a Republican Congress to enact four major labor reform measures aimed at preventing strikes that hurt the economy. He proposed outlawing jurisdictional strikes, restricting secondary boycotts, extending dispute mechanisms within labor relations, and establishing a temporary joint commission to study labor management issues. He warned against punitive laws and urged cooperation with the Senate and House to safeguard freedoms and progress. He also pressed for continued tax relief and a stringent economy program, and touched on peace treaties with Italy, Bulgaria, Romania, and Hungary along with atomic energy safeguards.
