INJUNCTIONS IN LABOR
DISPUTES

STATEMENT

BY THE

HON. HENRIK SHIPSTEAD

A SENATOR FROM THE STATE OF MINNESOTA ON THE BILL (S. 2497) TO AMEND THE JUDICIAL CODE AND TO DEFINE AND LIMIT THE JURISDICTION OF COURTS SITTING IN EQUITY, AND

FOR OTHER PURPOSES

TOGETHER WITH

A MEMORANDUM ON THE SUBSTITUTE BILL
BY WINTER S. MARTIN

PRESENTED BY MR. THOMAS OF OKLAHOMA

FEBRUARY 17 (calendar day, MARCH 4), 1931.-Ordered

WASHINGTON: 1931

INJUNCTIONS IN LABOR DISPUTES

The question of the injunction in labor disputes is of nation-wide interest. It is now in the Senate in the form of a bill reported from the Judiciary Committee adversely with a majority and minority report.

A subcommittee of that committee, consisting of Senators Norris, Blaine, and Walsh of Montana, have during the last three years conducted extensive hearings, have amended the original bill and made the minority report. The gratitude of the Senate is due these Senators for the diligent and earnest work done on this very complicated subject.

In view, however, of the differences of opinion developed, and the radical changes effected in the original S. 2479, a further independent study has been prosecuted at my request, the results of which are presented herewith. After analysis of both majority and minority reports, Mr. Martin and his associates propose an alternative and carefully drawn measure. This proposal is so fundamental and yet from an angle so new, with an apparent probable effect so eminently fair and desirable, that it is commended to the serious consideration of those in Congress and in private life who are interested in an effective remedy for the acknowledged evils accumulating from the continued abuse of the writ of injunction in labor disputes.

HENRIK SHIPSTEAD.
