Labor unions study Taft Hartley evasion schemes in ITU plan
Washington Aug 26 unions seek to avoid penalties under Taft-Hartley. The International Typographical Union policy committee proposes refraining from signing contracts to dodge the law while denying intent to violate it. They argue the law does not compel agreement, risking court challenges over covert “take it or leave it” conditions and possible attempts to revive a closed shop by apprenticeship rules. Congress may respond with stronger protections for nonunion employment.
