Reuther proposes bipartisan commission on union infiltration threat
Walter P. Reuther urges a bipartisan public commission to study legislation to curb Communist infiltration of trade unions and defense plants. He criticizes Administration bills as harmful, notes CIO expulsions of Communist dominated unions, and calls for a mid December 1954 report to inform the 1955 Congress. The plan would include judiciary committee representation and appointees from industry labor and the public.
