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.

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. Richfield is appealing the ruling to the federal courts. But NLRB did not open the door to union demands for companies to set up stock purchase plans; that question was not an issue...
