The controversial literature centering around the National Labor Relations Act and its administration is far too voluminous to be included with any completeness here. No attempt is made to cover all statements that have been issued, in article or pamphlet form, presenting divergent points of view with respect to the administration of the Act and the question of amendment. The recent Congressional Hearings, included under section B., provide very ample statements. 198 Leiserson, William M. Right and wrong in labor relations. Berkeley.
