Labor Board Measure Attacked by Harriman Public figures oppose Wagner bill
Henry I. Harriman of the United States Chamber of Commerce called the Wagner labor board bill probably unconstitutional and likely to undo much of the Recovery Act. He testified before the Senate Labor Committee, arguing the bill expands section TA and floods the system with unnecessary provisions. The hearing included several industrialists opposing the measure and stressing enforcement through existing channels. A separate note mentions a sunrise prayer service organized by local Christian and Methodist youth groups at Woodlawn School with Rev. A. R. Friesen leading, followed by a three-course breakfast. Georgia’s governor would control state finances under a new fiscal framework, with no expenditures allowed without his approval.
