In 1941, its mediation function lapsed, after which it focused exclusively on research.[1][2][3][4] HistoryCreationThe Maritime Labor Board (MLB) was created by an amendment on June 23, 1948 (52 Stat. 968) to the Merchant Marine Act (49 Stat. 1985) of June 29, 1936.[1][2][3][4] OperationsThe MLB began with two major functions. First, it mediated labor disputes within the maritime industry. Second, it conducted research on maritime labor problems.[1] From its founding to June 30, 1941, the MLB became involved in 118 disputes, advised 40 disputs, and observed 37 disputes. The Sailors' Union of the Pacific refused to deal with it at all; the National Maritime Union (NMU) would deal with it. Walter Galenson pronounced the MLB "unsuccessful" in 1960.[3] DevolutionOn June 23, 1941, an amendment (55 Stat. 259) to the Merchant Marine Act of 1936 let the MLB's mediation functions lapse. From then on, it focused only as a research agency.[1][2] ClosureOn February 14 (or 15), 1942, the MLB ceased operations due to exhaustion of appropriations.[1] Three days later, its files went to the National Archives.[2] The Conciliation Service of the National Defense Mediation Board succeeded the MLB. On May 24, 1950, President Harry S. Truman abolished the U.S. Maritime Commission, replaced by the Maritime Administration.[4] MembersBoard MembersIn July 1938, the MLB's board included:
Staff membersFrom 1938 to 1940, Nathan Gregory Silvermaster was a staff member: he ran the Silvermaster Group under Soviet spy Elizabeth Bentley.[6] See also{{Portal|Organized labour}}
