The commission itself was established in the wake of mounting conflict and violence
in American labor relations and especially as a result of the dynamiting in 1910 of
the Los Angeles Times Building by two labor union officials.
In 1911, soon after confessions were rendered in the Tiimes bombing, a group of persons,
predominantly social reformers connected with the Survey magazine, petitioned President
William Howard Taft to create a federal commission to study industrial relations in
the U.S.
In response to the President's call to Congress in the Sate of the Union message
of 1912, Congress established, in August of that year, a tripartite Commission on
Industrial Relations composed of nine members representing employers, employees, and
the public.
