No Force to Protect Mail Into Plants
Washington reports W. W. Howes, assistant postmaster general, told the Senate postal committee the department would not ask for military force to protect deliveries to workers inside strikebound steel plants. He said officials merely carried out the law by refusing to handle deliveries where danger is evident, denying union interference claims and noting no agreements with labor groups. Bridges pressed for action, citing a telegram from two union officials supporting an understanding with Youngstown officials, while Howes defended compliance with legal duties and refused to deploy guards.
