complete substitute bill which would

deal only with the ‘cooling off” period and mediation features and would be a simpler statute, The Rules Committee hearing reflected the pressure upon many Congressmen for anti-strike legislation, which many are anxious to relieve by voting for some sort of bill. The hearing revealed also the resistance of others friendly to labo: who feel that Congress should proceed very cauticusly and not infringe upon fundamental rights of labor. Rep. Warren G. Magnuson (D. Wash), told the committee, “we should have a cooling off period before we pass this bill.” It likewise reflected the desire of

some members to pass more drastic legislation especially Southerners, represented on the Rules Committee, among others, by Rep. Howard Smith «(D. Va) and E. E. Cox (D. Ga). The latter described the vinson bill as a “milk and water bill.” George Meany, A. F. of L. secretary and member of the National Mediation Board, pieaded with the committee not to let the measure get to the floor, asserting that it struck at fundamental and recognized rights of labor. He. pointed to the very small number of strikes now going on, related the success of the mediation board to date, and
