Labor will seek more benefits from New Deal
In San Francisco on October 3 labor leaders of the American Federation of Labor outlined a militant program to win greater New Deal benefits for workers. They pressed for an investigation of Reynolds Tobacco chair S Clay Williams before NRA duties, for tougher enforcement of the National Recovery Act, protection of collective bargaining, and expansion of labor security laws. The plan also backs a five hour workday, a six day work week, industrial unions, an 11 to 28 member executive council, and a general one day strike when Congress meets.
