Senate acts to end airline strike for 30 days
The Senate approved a measure to force 35,400 striking airline mechanics back to work for 30 days and allow President Johnson to extend that period for up to six months. The bill passed 54 to 3 and moves to the House where action is uncertain. The measure differs from an earlier plan giving the President sole power to order a return to work.
