Few revisions in labor-management law are likely to come out of the 84th, since North Carolina's Graham Barden, a staunch Taft-Hartley man, will be chairman of the House Labor Committee. And there is little chance of anyone pushing tax reduction past Virginia's Senator Byrd until Government spending is sharply cut-a prospect that is even dimmer than it was before the election...

In so ruling in a case involving Richfield Oil, the National Labor Relations Board significantly broadened the meaning of "wages [and] other conditions" in the Taft-Hartley Act.
