Foremen Union Ban Slated by Amendment to Labor Bill
The National Labor Relations Board could not use funds on cases involving supervisory foremen after July 1 as an amendment linked to the Case bill seeks to block Wagner Act relief for organizing foremen. Senator Ball argues the move preserves status quo for a year while Congress decides on unionization among employers' representatives. If adopted, the provision could reach the President as the first separate section of the vetoed Case bill, with Truman likely to veto the entire package. The plan risks clashing with Hobbs bill penalties for interstate commerce obstruction.
