CIO Defends Industry Wide Bargaining Testing Courts
CIO union leaders from the oil and telephone sectors argued before the Senate labor committee that industry wide bargaining protects workers. They contended management power dominates, warning that banning industry wide bargaining or multi employer deals would erode unions. They cited AT&T and Bell System control and urged coordinated worker unity with management. They dismissed monopolistic claims while stressing industry wide leverage and the need for protections beyond local bargains.
