Strikes Inexcusable
He called for early enactment of legislation to “prevent unjustifiable practices.” - These he defined as Jurisdictional strikes, which he held to be indefensible; secoridary boycotls when used to further jurisdictional disputes or to compel employers to violate the national la- _ bor relations act; and the use of economic force by either labor or management to decide issues arising | 8 from the interpretation of existing contracts. “Strikes to compel an empolyer to violate the law are inexcusable,” Mr. Truman said. Legislation to prevent such strikes is clearly desirable. “Another form of inter-union disagreement is the jurisdictional
strike involving the question of}
which labor union is entitled to petform a particular task. When rival upions are’ unable to settle such disputes among themselves, provision must be made for peace-
ful and binding determination of -

He warned that the extraordinary war powers which have been used to combat such disasters years soon will be gone. He did not ask for renewal of plant seizure powers, obviously proposing to leave this to the commission, “This problem will require careful study~and a bold approach,” the President added, “but an approach!’ consistent with the preservation of the rights of our people. “The need is pressing.” Up to Industry The President made -. three-way economic advances possible this year.
