...Santo Domingo is correct, President Johnson has decided to embark on a daring policy reversal in the Dominican Republic.

The U.S. Court of Appeals in Richmond refused to enforce the NLRB order. The court said that Darlington had an "absolute prerogative" to quit business in whole or part at any time it wished. Having thus fairly ended the employment relationship, ruled...
