Senate Debates 120 Day Strike Ban Plan Amid Controls
The Senate debated a bill by Sen. Burnett Maybank to forbid strikes in critical industries for 120 days, create a settlement board, and allow presidential seizure if terms are rejected. Taft criticized it as tougher on labor than Taft-Hartley, which only calls for an 80 day cooling off and a nonbinding board.
