Boettiger Criticism of U S Labor Board Highlighted
Washington December 12 An official memorandum records John Boettiger Roosevelt's son in law saying he did not blame employers for criticizing the Labor Board's handling of the NLRB case. The Seattle based director Elwyn J. Ragen quoted Boettiger in a conversation tied to Hearst papers and the American Newspaper Guild. Boettiger denied using family influence and asked that the matter not be publicized while signaling sympathy for the act but frustration with board decisions. The House committee on labor pressed for further testimony as hearings continued revealing internal disagreements among board members.
