Senator condemns labor bill as union curtailment
Senator Murrray of Montana blasts the Tait Hartley Labor Bill as a move to make the National Association of Manufacturers the spokesman for the economy. He warns the compromise measure weakens unions, sparks inevitable conflict with management, and predicts passage despite a Truman veto attempt. Pepper and Barkley join critics, aiming to kill provisions after conference changes that limit union power and ban the closed shop while allowing the union shop by vote.
