New Laws Sought After Labor Racketeering Remarks
Kansas City chairman Boyd Leedom urged broader legislation beyond the Taft Hartley act to widen the nets against labor crooks. He said the NLRB can already act on abuses but fresh laws could curb revealed rackets, stressing management and union leaders must prioritize workers' welfare and members' rights over profits and income. He noted the NLRB will act when charges arise and federal labor laws apply.
