Creation of Machinery To Prevent Strikes Proposed by Patterson
Undersecretary of war Patterson urged a strike-prevention machinery similar to World War I era setups to keep arms production steady. He noted 120000 man-days were lost to strikes in late February into March and said while 1940 losses were lower than 1939, any delay in rearmament must be avoided. He preferred voluntary labor management cooperation over new legislation.
