Peace Plan Ends Auto Strike Impasse With Labor Board
President Roosevelt announced a new order in labor relations after weeks of auto industry talks. A three man mediation board in Detroit will decide employee representation matters with a neutral member. Richard E. Byrd was nominated to represent labor, while the final decisions will be binding and use payrolls and union lists to determine plant representation ratios. The accord prioritizes safeguarding married workers and relies on seniority and skill for layoffs. The deal eases a major administration worry about a spread of industrial discord. A separate railroad wage dispute remains with arbitrator Joseph B. Eastman seeking a six month pay continuation.
