Van Wagner Abandons Plans
For New Mediation Law
BY FRANK MORRIS

LANSING. March 6.-Openine
a new battle with the Republican
ma jority in the Legislature, Gov.
Brnor Van Wagner today sent tc
the Senate the first three bills oil
a series 10 revise most statutes
relating TO labor.
At the same time. the governor
abandoned his plans for a new
labor mediation law. He said that
after much discussion with ad.
visers and union leaders he has
decided the present law need not
be altered.
This is reversal of the attitude
he expressed in his inaugural mes
sage, when he told the lawmakers
they should eliminate the manda-
tory features of the act, thus
indicating disfavor with the man.

strike.
EXPECTS HARD FIGHT
Returning TO the Capitol after
an absence caused by a cold, the
governor acknowledged that a
hard fight faces him if his labor
program is TO be forced through
the Hffriendly Legislature.
At his press conference. Gov
ernor Van Wagner was asked if
he knew how his bills would be
received by the lawmakers. The
traditional cigar popped from his
mouth as the governor laughed
mo. But l can make good
guess
First of the three bills would
prohibit injunctions and restrain
ing orders in labor disputes until
after a court had heard all issues
and all witnesses. and then only
when the court determines that

Temporary restraining orders,
without notice. would be possible
when law enforcement agencies
hare unable to protect property and
"a substantial and irreparable in
jury to compliments property will
be unavoidable.

The law would prohibit injunc-
tive relief of any kind to any en-
ployer who disobeys or refuses 10
recognize and comply with any
obligation imposed by law. Cover
nor Van Wagner said he was not
sure whether this provision was
aimed at employers like the Ford
Motor Company, who have fought
the NLRB.
The proposed statute embarks
from customary legal language
and includes statement of public
policy. saying in part:
THE individual unorganlZed
worker IL commonly helpless to
exercise actual liberty of con-
tract and to protect his freedom
Of labor and thereby obtain
acceptable terms and conditions
