least for those having the check
off system of dues collection.
They would be deprived of dues
taken out of members' pay en
velopes pending compliance. The
money then would- be turned
over to them.
The broad statement of policy,
effective at once, is enunciated
under the recently-enacted Con-nally-Smith
anti-strike act. The
White House made public a let
ter to Chairman William H.
Davis of the WLB and an execu
tive order empowering Stabiliza
tion Director Fred M. Vinson to
proceed against recalcitrants as
reported to him by the board.
Speculation
Speculation immediately arose
as to whether the WLB would
cite John L. Lewis, head of the
United Mine Workers, or the
United States Gypsum Co., re
garded by the WLB as the prin
cipal union and management
non-compliers to date. Board
members declined to comment
Meanwhile, it was indicated
in informed quarters that the
authorizations given Vinson plus
an authorization to Interior Sec
retary Ickes to put selected coal
mines on a 48-hour work week
were parts of a program laying
the groundwork for return of
some of the government-seized
mines to private control in the
near future.
Property Return
The anti-strike law requires
return of property taken over
by the government within 60
days after it has been restored
to productive efficiency, and it
was indicated that Ickes, as boss
of the government-operated
mines, views the lengthening of
the work week as one means of
restoring productive efficiency
by making up for the loss of
miners to the draft and to high
paying war industries.
