Congress, argued Warren, set up the NLRB consciously as a device to "balance the competing interests of employee, union and management." For state courts to offer additional remedies could well destroy the delicate balance and frustrate the NLRB's decisions. Moreover, if non-strikers were encouraged to sue in state courts, labor unions would be under the threat of "staggering" financial losses, would have to be so cautious they might end up concluding that even federally protected union activities, i.e., peaceable striking...

They bring in their own paper, hire away Henry's old employees, grab his old advertisers, buy the very building he prints in. They even gull his giddy daughter into an interview in which she announces her admiration for their paper.
