Mitchell argues for control law in labor suit
State Attorney General A. B. Mitchell urged a three judge federal panel to strike down Kansas union regulation law at a six hour hearing. He argued the bill may improve with experience, and explained licensing targets the issuing agent rather than all members. Labor attorneys contended the measure infringes equal protection by controlling unions and not employers. The court set a September 1 decision date as arguments closed.
