Steel Crisis: Supreme Court to Rule As Strike Continues. "The governmenet seizure of the steel industry, and then Judge Pine's court decision returning the mills to industry, followed by labor's quick walk-out, leaves the country facing a serious crisis in the midst of mounting war production efforts. Steel workers quit their jobs and picket lines are thrown up on the heels of the historic decision." Commerce Secretary Charles Sawyer sits at a desk, looking seriously at a document. Men walk up courthouse steps. Judge David Pine, in robes, sits and looks at papers at his desk. Men picket with signs; striking workers block the path of cars.
