Kennedy invokes Taft Hartley to curb maritime strike
President Kennedy invoked the Taft Hartley Act to halt the national maritime strike with an executive order. A special inquiry board will report by June 30, after which the attorney general could seek a federal injunction to force 75,000 sailors back to work for 80 days. Masters, Mates and Pilots oppose the move, vowing appeals to the Supreme Court if needed. The action highlights calls for Taft Flattery law modifications.
