- Description:
- The Iverson Tool Company wrote to Congressman Schwabe expressing concerns about the power of labor unions and their impact on employers and employees. They believe that labor laws should be revised to give equal rights to both parties, and that the Wagner Act is one-sided and poorly administered. They also argue against fact-finding boards setting wages at an industrial level, as it would be detrimental to small businesses. They believe that the high wages paid during wartime have caused issues in other industries, and question the necessity of further wage increases demanded by unions.
