The article discusses a proposed Smith bill aimed at penalizing unions for unauthorized strikes by stripping collective bargaining rights and waiving LaGuardia protections. It argues the measure acts like a restraint order and could expose unions to anti trust rules, highlighting a possible clash with Roosevelt's universal service bill and the soldier versus labor vote dynamic.

Dewey Receives New York Child Care Plan Proposal
Governor Dewey Saturday received a seven point child care program proposal from the New York State Conference of Women Workers. The plan requests a 5 million dollar state appropriation to cover costs, with prior year spending cited as insufficient to build a wartime care system. The conference, with 500 representatives from 178 organizations, urges expediting a realistic program tied to working mothers’ day to day needs and suggests group infant care, community tailored hours, use of public school facilities, and state-financed costs. Local committees would assist applicants and the State Child Care Committee would determine eligibility.
