Hawaii Strike Parley Shifts To New York Employers Express No Hop Of Ptae Unltss Union Is "Reasonable" HONOLULU. SeDt. 1. IJP Hawaiian employer! pessimistic ally accepted an invitation today to enter New York negotiations on Sept. 7 to end the 123-day old dock strike. Acceptance of Federal Mediator Cyrui Chlng's Washington re quest for the September meeting was voiced by Chairman W. Rus sell Starr of the employes' nego tiators. In a statement Starr said: "The strike is going to be set tled on the money issue because wages are the basic issue." The ILWU struck on May 1 for a -32 cents an hour hike to their $1.40-wage. The money issue, Starr said, "can be settled as well in Hawaii as in New York, but since Harry Bridges (union president) has persistently refused to negotiate seriously in Hawaii and has in sisted that settlement can only be reached outside Hawaii, we have notified the U. S. conciliation service that our company repre sentatives will agree to go to New York in yet another effort to end the strike. "We will be present for the meeting with Mr. Ching and Har ry Bridges and his committee Sept. 7. Nat Optlmlstio ' "If by transferring negotiations to the east coast we can get the ILWU seriously down to work we are' willing to try. However, we do not approach the prospect of New York talks In optimism. "Unless the union comes down into a reasonable area of settle ment, substantially below 14 cents tan hour increase) there is no more promise of an end to the . strike in New York that there is in Hawaii. ' "Our companies offered wage increases first of eight cents, then of 12 cents,' then agreed to an emergency territorial poard find ing of 14 cents. The ILWU has re jected ail these avenues of set tlement - "We share with everv rjerson in the Islands the hope the ILWU will not pursue in New York the same delaying tactics it has pur sued In Hawaii during four long, harmful months of blockade-tactics aimed at producing stalemate and finally arbitration of wages." - A hearing on a request by the union for an injunction against Hawaii's recently enacted dock seizure law was cheduled today in federal court. .The court ruled yesterday that picketing of the seized docks lould continue but that the terri tory government could operate seized docks until a decision is reached on the ILWU suit chal lenging constitutionality of the territorial law. .

(Picture by Ada's Photo Shop, Mrytla Creek, I World's Plunge Into Trillion-Dollar War Recalled By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK W) It is ten years ago today since Adolf Hitler plunged the world Into its first trillion-dollar war. No paperhanger in history ever messed up a place more. Remember? Millions of people heard the broadcast of the fateful speech to the Reichstag in which Hitler told the German people their troops had marched Into Poland j. - . It gave a shivery feeling. The i fiery emotionalism of the little man seeped through his alien tongue into the hearts of listen ers in many lands. The hall in which he spoke was hung with scarlet banners, for red is the j color oi war. Ana tne nan snook I with bursts of massed applause I as If led by Invisible cheerlead ers. It was like something out of the middle ages. Exactly 2,074 days later the LOBSTERS FiWtt CAUGHT AND! FAFOOI DELICACIES ft from Cardan Valley Road Junction CATFISH ROSEBURG.

Some 34,400,000 had been wounded. It was the biggest jackpot of all time for brother Mars. He had rung up $1,116,991,463,084 on his cash register and about $230,900,000,000 est property dam age. This doesn't even include the cost in money and damage of the long war in China, which li still in flower. The United States picked up the biggest part of the check $.330,030,463,084 and it is still picking up the checks. Freedom Or Tyranny? . What does It all add up to? Well, the Germans are still sorting bricks from the nibble of their cities, and will he for years. They are bystanders now. But the chief Issue raised by Hitler is still undecided freedom or tyranny, the eldest issue on earth and never settled. War didn't even dent the global population. Wars never do that so well as a good long plague. It is a tremendous tribute to the imperishable vitali ty and optimism of the human rare that it has gone on having children like mad. There are some 2.300.000.000 people in the world, more than ever, and some 150,000,000 dwell in America more than ever.

And America is still a little startled at the reali zation it has replaced the British empire as the biggest single fac tor for world order. That car ries the privileges of greater responsibility and, inevitably, higher taxes. That is the price of being the big. brother. Taught Us Geography What did the war teach us? Well, chiefly, it taught us a sense of geography and that's im portant. Places like Baetogne, Kasserine gap, Tokyo, Paris, London, Liege, and Berlin don't seem so strange and far now. Millions came home with memor ies of what people are like and how they live ia foreign places. There is a steel skyscraper growing up now upside Manhat tan's East river, the first build ing in the United Nations new home. The problem is whether everybody can grow up as it is growing. For the question Is no longer whether any particular nation can get along In the world, but whether all nations can get along in the world together. Whether they do or not, it Is doubtful whether war in itself, even in the radioactive atomic age, can alone destroy anything so durable and stubborn as man kind. For nothing yet has ever been able to keep people from having hope and children. Fishing Boat Hits Whalt Off Coast Of Oregon' DEPOE BAY. Sept. 1 .PU Skipper Hap M.

The nation's coal stocks, estimated to he dropping at the rate of a million tons a week, will be sliced 3i million tons that week. Strike threats still hang over the auto, electric appliance and rubber industries. One big rub ber company, B. F. Goodrich, is already struck. In these, and other industries, labor and man agement are reported holding off contract decisions to see which way the steel stalemate will be resolved. Not only is there the strike threat, but also the que tlon of what wage Increases might do to prices, sales volume, and company profit and loss sheets and purchasing power. The steel dispute will come to a head over the second week end in September. The Presi dent's fact-finding board Is ex pected to make its recommenda tions Sept. 10. The unions have set Sept. 14 as the strike dead line. In the few days in between the steel companies and the un ion must decide what they'll do about the hoard's suggestions.

Some think the board may sug gest that be cut about in third. Would Hit Retailer Strikes in the first postwar years merely added to the in flationary spiral by aggravating shortages of goods in great de mand, and boosting prices. This fall, however, strikes are more likely to deepen the reces sion. In most Industries finished goods Inventories are high enough to take care of consumer demand for some time. But the loss of purchasing power by work ers in struck industries will hit retailers hard, and mushroom out all through the economy. For example, the railroads that serve the coal fields are already hit by the three-day week which Lewis decreed July 1. Freight traffic is down and rail em ployes have been laid off. Labor leaders In other indus tries deny that they are Just waiting to see what happens in steel and coal before pushing this year's fourth-round bargaining to a conclusion. But many on the management side of the table believe that when the steel pattern takes shape In a couple of weeks, and Lewis' tactics and chances be come clearer, the die will have been cast for peace or war this (all in the key industries.
