In commenting on the lJnion's decision, Mr. Hutcheson noted that the pattern of increasing government influence in labor relations during the past 24 years is a phenomenon which will continue "indefrnitely." Pointing out that certain union actions are now subject to legal control, l{utcheson declared that labor relations legislation is today more important than ever.
