Case bill on Senate agenda faces rugged opposition
The Case strike control bill cleared the House with a 258 to 155 vote and moves to the Senate labor committee. Senator Morse calls it ill advised and warns it may disrupt the economy. Senator Ball doubts enough votes exist to advance it. The proposal would create a federal mediation board to pause disputes for 30 days, allow court injunctions, and impose civil liability for contract breaches while outlawing violence and boycotts and limiting employee status for supervisory unions.

Domestic wheat and corn supplies have been drawn down to meet civilian and needy needs, with no global grain surpluses to rely on if droughts or floods hit.
