Labor skirmishes shape Wood bill compromise push
Washington April 29 an alliance of House Republicans and Southern Democrats drove for passage of the Wood labor bill, scoring amendments and delaying a decisive vote. The GOP Dixie bloc pushed through three amendments while Truman forces opposed them. Debates centered on repealing Taft-Hartley and reviving Wagner Act provisions with modifications. A key amendment allowed strikers to vote post replacement, and another eased secondary boycott rules. No final action occurred as sessions adjourned with votes split and debate continuing. Bernard M. Simmons filed a Circuit Court suit to overturn a revocation of his automobile license, naming W. Lee Elgin as defendant. The plan seeks to restore driving authority, arguing due process and legality of prior magistrate decisions.

Ambassador Harriman told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the United States is moving away from war but must help rearm Atlantic pact nations to sustain peace. He cited growing Western European confidence from the North Atlantic treaty and warned that turning aside could lose the spirit of unity. He spoke during the first week of hearings on the 12 nation Atlantic treaty, a 20 year mutual aid pact linking the United States and Canada with ten Western European countries. He emphasized continuing economic aid while supporting allies to bolster their efforts.
