Labor Act Revision
Chances Held Better;
House Plans Quiz
Amendment Sponsors
Determined to Get
An EorIy Stort

Prospects for revision Of the Ma
tional Labor Relations Act appeared
increased today as the House Labor
Committee prepared to undertake
hearings on numerous amendments
simultaneously with the Senate
Committee on Education and Labor.
Although the House committee did
not set date when it decided yes
terday to initiate hearings, sponsors
of some of the pending amendments
were determined today to get things
started without undue delay.
Seek Investigation.
At the same time, proponents Of
a resolution now pending before the
Rules Committee calling for an in
vestigation of the Labor Acts ad-
ministration indicated they will
continue efforts to have their pro-
posed inquiry approved.
Holding priority over the Labor
Act proceedings before the House
Labor Committee is the question of
recommending revision of the wage
and hour law and of making perma-
nent the Civilian Conservation
Corps. Bills bearing on both issues
are pending before the committee.
Suggestions at Hand.
AS for the Wagner Act revision
the committee has several sugges-
tons at hand, including a bill by
Representative Barden. Democrat
of North Carolina, which has the
support of the American Federation
of Labor. bitter critic of the existing
Labor Board.
Mr.. Barden's bill would increase
the size of the board to five men,
bers. limit its discretionary powers
and more clearly define certain pro-
cedural questions.
Il think the proposals will meet
favorable response in the House, u
Representative Barden said. THE
country wants something done about
this situation. The idea of not
knowing on Monday morning what
the law is going to be on Wednes-
day doesn't appeal to a lot of
people"
Also In course of preparation is a
bill by Representative Ramspeck.
Democrat. of Georgia to replace the
present Labor Board with a five
man agency chosen on q geograph-
ical basis.
