Supreme Court blocks coal strike action until case advances
The Supreme Court refuses to lift the contempt ruling against John L. Lewis, delaying any new coal strike. Miners, about 400,000 AFL members, likely remain at work through July 1 while officials push wage negotiations with operators to avoid a midsummer shutdown. The March 31 deadline for a possible restart remains blocked as the case moves through the courts.

Lewis Says No Proposals To Prevent Nationwide Coal Strike
John L. Lewis told the Senate Labor Committee he has no suggestions at this time on how to avert another nationwide coal strike. He argued government intrusion has arrested collective bargaining and urged easing the use of a blackjack to push miners toward submission while operators take profits. Most bituminous mines have been government-owned since last May, and the Supreme Court upheld the government’s right to halt a strike by injunction in the federally operated pits.

Mine Ruling Spurs Call for Labor Law Reform by NAM
Ira Mosher of the National Association of Manufacturers testifies before the House Labor Committee after the Supreme Court ruling in the John L. Lewis case. He says the decision proves new labor laws are needed to address industrial strife and potential civil crises, noting the government seizure law ends soon and coal mine operations were government managed during last fall’s strike. He urges Congress to enact root causes legislation to curb industrial unrest.
