This was stricken out at the last minute H Also, the cooling-off period for ; a threatened strike was raised frem 20 to 30 days. Here's the inside story of how the changes came about: BACKSTAGE CONFERENCE One hour before Secretary of | Labor Maurice Tgbin was schedul- ed to appear before the Senate La- Lor Committee on Friday morn- | ing, Charl Murphy, the White House legislative representative, reported to Truman that there was 1! disagreement on the strike injunetion clause. Truman immediately instructed Secretary Tobin to cancel his ap- pearance before the Senate com- mittee and to be at the White House at 8 p. m. Friday. At the ensuing conference were: the Pres- ident himself, Tobin, Murphy, At- torney General Tom Clark, Assist- ant John Steelman and Clark Cliftord. Ensued a pitched battle over biue-penciling the injunction ban on strikes endangering public health and welfare. Clifford and Jusice Department Attorney Gen- eral Clark—contended the injunc- in the Lill. Steelman and Tobin wanted it cut, argued that it was a grat- uitous prejudgment of labor, “We've got to assume that labor has grown up and will carry its 1esponsibilities,” asserted Steelman. Attorney General Clark agreed with, him, said labor should be tarily with the government in pre- venting crippling strikes with no legal club over its head As the argument continued, the / .

And we've got| to protect the government and the | people against production shut- | downs in these very critical nme.s."‘ Finally Truman settled it. “If you knew the history of m-l junctions and the hardships they | caused labor as I do,” he said, in| effect, “you would take a different slant on the subject. I realize as much as anybody that it is nec- i to use the injunction ai| !times—and I have used it on sev- | eral occasions myself in serious | emergencies—but I don’t blame la- |bor leaders for protesting agamstt the practice. “In the old days,” continued the | President, in effect, “before la-| bor's rights were recognized by the New Deal, the injunction was used too often as a weapon of dis- crimination against labor, instead cf for the public good.” e e o, %0 8 00 c oo . . ® I'IDE TABLE ® . . s FEBRUARY 9 . o Low tide, 4:16 am., 65 ft. ® ® High tide, 10:18 a.m., 146 ft. ® o Low tide, 17:22 pm, 05 ft. © . . v e 0 9 0000 9000 °e THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIR];——JUNhAU ALASKA 20 YEARS AGO #9% nurine FEBRUARY 8, 1929 . o The U.
