 There is nothing" he said, lin pending legislation which would give workers a sense of security or that will avert the industrial conflict that will inevitably grow out of this situation if it is no corrected"
 Reuther described the measures being considered as punitive and negative" and said the failing Of all such legislation lis that it at tackS symptoms rather than re moves root causes"
 Among specific bills before the committee, Reuther opposed those which would outlaw industry-wide collective bargaining and the closed shop; make unions suable in federal courts; overhaul the Wag- ner labor relations act; prohibit collection of union dues by the check-off system; and require "cooling-off" periods before strikes.
 The JAW chief said human se- curity is the only basis for econo- mic stability and no legislation of the sort you are considering, no matter how carefully prepared or well intended, is a substitute for positive, constructive action that will remove the causes of insecuri- ty."
