Montgomery Ward Fights War Board Jurisdiction
Montgomery Ward and Company renewed its challenge to the War Labor Board's authority at a May 31 hearing over extending the expired union contract. CIO union leader Samuel Wolchok pressed for either contract extension or acknowledgment of no jurisdiction, while Ward's spokesman argued the board should focus on issues impacting the war effort. The union cites alleged discrimination and plant outsourcing as context. The report also notes theater inspections ordered by Mayor Gittinger to ease crowds in local venues following a protest over theater operations.
