LAnti-Strike Law
'Abolition Urged
By Sen. Morse
WASHINGTON, June 21 (UP)
Sen. Wayne C. Morse, R Ore.,
urged at a war labor board hear-
ng that labor and management
'join forces to abolish the Smilh-
Connally anti-strike law at the
earliest possible date."
Morse said he had so advised
the Los Angeles metal trades
'council (AFL), which has taken
I a vote to strike if the WLB denies
its demand for 11.8 per cent wage
increase for ship repair workers.
The higher wage for repair work
now prevails in San Francisco,
Portland and Seattle areas.
I "The Smith-Connally act is so
'unsound and inimical to the best
interests of labor and industry
that I think the representatives
of labor and management chould
join forces to abolish it at the
earliest possible date," Mors-a said
Morse urged the WLB to ex.
tend the 11.0 differential to, the
Los Angeles area yards. He ac
leused the federal agencies of
"fecdine shiD repair work into
Los Angeles out of all proportion
to that fed Into other ports.
) "If we continue to let the gov
ernment build up ship rcpuir
.work in Los Angoles because of
Slower wage rates, the government
'will be a party to a discrimipa-
!' lion that ennnot be justified,"
Morse said. "We highly disap
prove of the position the procure
ment agencies have taken.
Acting as spokesman for all of
the Pacific coast senate delega
tion, Morse said he was not plead
ing a labor case but one of pub
lic interest. A former WLB pub
lic member, Morse said that it
was the first time he had ap
peared before the board in the
role of pleader.
