(book) "Power and Politics in Labor Legislation" by alan K. McAdams. 1964. Columbia University Press. 346p. DJ. (In this book the development and passage by Congress of the Landrum-Griffin Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 is presented and analyzed. In the context of the Democratic landslide in the elections of 1958 the "anti labor" content and tone of Landrum-Griffin appeared at first glance to be paradoxical. When the Act and its passage are properly understood, however, a quite different conclusion can be reached. The liberal version of this labor bill emerged from the Senate struggle over its passage carrying the name of its major sponsor, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, and the apparent approval of the AFL-CIO. It had withstood the onslaught of Conservative forces led by Barry Goldwater for the Republicans, and "Labor Rackets" investigator John McClellan for the South.
