313 U.S. 23 (61 S.Ct. 751, 85 L.Ed. 1165)
Argued: March 10, 1941.
A certificate from the Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit submitted pursuant to § 239 of the Judicial Code, 28 U.S.C. 346, 28 U.S.C.A. § 346, is as follows:
2. Where a local business, such as a laundry, is located in a city on a state line, and is not engaged in interstate commerce, except in so far as it may collect articles to be serviced and may make deliveries to customers living across the state line, is such business, by reason of such collections and deliveries, deemed engaged in 'commerce' within the meaning of Subsection 6 of Section 2 of the Act of July 5, 1935, ch. 372, 29 U.S.C.A. § 152(6), so that an unfair labor practice on its part would be an unfair labor practice 'affecting commerce' within the meaning of Subsection 7 of said section, 29 U.S.C.A. § 152(7) and Subsection (a) of Section 10, 29 U.S.C.A. § 160(a)? 1
By § 10(a) of the National Labor Relations Act, 49 Stat. 449, 453, 29 U.S.C. 160(a), 29 U.S.C.A. § 160(a), the Board is empowered 'to prevent any person from engaging in any unfair labor practice (listed in section 8(158)) affecting commerce.' The term 'affecting commerce' is defined in § 2(7) as 'in commerce, or burdening or obstructing commerce or the free flow of commerce, or having led or tending to lead to a labor dispute burdening or obstructing commerce or the free flow of commerce.' And 'commerce' by § 2(6) is defined so as to include 'trade, traffic, commerce, transportation, or communication among the several States.' On a review of an order of the Board in a Circuit Court of Appeals the 'findings of the Board as to the facts, if supported by evidence, shall be conclusive.' § 10(e).
