Answer to Question 1

The 1926 Act gave employees freedom to unionize and bargain without employer interference, discrimination, or sponsoring of company labor organizations. It provided for cooling-off delays in threatened stoppages, thereby fostering mediation, arbitration, and fact-finding with enforcement of arbitration awards.
The 1934 amendments added grievance arbitration procedures by creating the NRAB to decide all minor disputes, added criminal penalties for violations of the Act, and clarified enforcement procedures.

Answer to Question 2

The industry is clearly interstate, an essential public-service industry subject to federal regulation, and railroad labor disputes interrupt the flow of interstate commerce.
