5. The instance involving Justice Clark is not altogether as clear.
The facts are these. In 1949 the Congress was considering labor legis-
lation which would impose a duty to refrain from striking during the
consideration of disputes in emergency cases. The question arose as
to whether the legislation should specifically authorize injunctions
to prevent strikes. The then Attorney General Clark sent a letter to
the Senate Labor Committee indicating his view that such provisions
were not necessary and pointed to the exceedingly great powers of the
President to deal with emergencies. The implication in the circumstances
is very clear that Attorney General Clark thought the President could
take some action to keep men at work in an emergency in the absence of
specific statutory authority.
