9 (a) Nothing in this Act shall be construed to require an

13 illegal act; nor shall any court issue any process to compel
14 the performance by an individual employee of such labor or
15 service, without his consent; nor shall the quitting of labor

23 the Board. This prohibition shall not apply, except with
24 respect to bargaining units in existence on the effective
