Strikes

(COntlnueQ from rage ~
by the International Association
IF Machinists-AFL.
Moers said it was the first
time the 30-day clause had been
invoked in a defense industry
in Michigan. The strike notice,
he said, was filed less than "a
hours after mediation board had
asked Attorney General Herbert
j. Rushton to determine its
authority to define q defense in
dustry as being so closely identi-
fled with the public welfare that
it would be unwise to permit a
strike before 80 days of negoti-
atoms seeking a settlement.
There was not time, he said,
to await the Attorney Generals
reply.
ANY company which has &c.
100000 worth of government Or
ders for gun carriages in these
days must be considered as iden-
titled with the public interest"
Moers said.
1--WE will take each dispute as
it comes along and after investi-
cation determine whether it af-
fects the public interest.
I'VE expect labor organiza-
tions would object strenuously,
but we are agreed it is the proper
thing to do"
Moers said the national de-
Tense council had been asked to
seek permission for federal inter-
vention to stop strikes affecting
the production of defense mate
rails but that Michigan, having
such q clause in its own labor
laws, decided to use it quickly.
Maybe" Moers said, cts
something which will sweep the
country"
