Kennedy orders halt to maritime strike under Taft-Hartley
President Kennedy invoked the Taft-Hartley Act to stop a maritime union strike. He formed a three member Emergency Board to report facts and consider the dispute between sea unions and ship operators with a Friday deadline. If unresolved, an 80 day cooling off period and a temporary restraining order are likely. David L. Cole chairs the board with Samuel I. Roseman and James J. Healy. The action aims to protect food, oil, and military cargo movement while urging continued bargaining through mediation services.
