MAKES PROVISIONS’

This act makes provisions for legal strikes after certain con- ditions hsve met. The workers involved in such strikes cannot lose their Jobs or suffer other penalties. '

However. federal civil ser- vants are specifically excluded from the Federal Labor ct. Its provisions tinder which legal strikes may be staged do not apply to government workers.

Under the common law a civil servant—or any other worker- bas. the right to withdraw his

services. But In taking such action he In not protected against dismissal by his em- ployer.
