Solbns Fear Bargaining May
if
By NORMAN WALKER
WASHINGTON A House
labor:. subcommittee said Tuesday
business ventures operated by rich
unions or anion leaders may turn
collective bargaining with employ
ers into "an empty farce."
The group said in a report that
.employers by law . are allowed' to
resist union demands but if a union
operates a competing business, the
combined pressure could mount, so
"the employer may well have no
choice but to yield. -
The subcommittee, summing up
testimony of hearings held last
year at Detroit, recommended that
the ull Labor Committee meet
promptly to cite two witnesses for
contempt of Congress for refusing
Planners Back
Increases in
Sewer
City ordinances seeking to In
crease sewer rentals and sewer
connection fees won approval of
the Salem Planning, Commission
Tuesday night and were referred
to the city council for possible fu
ture action.
Council members, however, in a
Joint meeting with the Planning
' Commission last night made it
plain they would want more time
' to study the ordinances.
Introduced at the last, council
meeting the measures call for a
$150 sewer hook-up fee (now there
is only a $4.50 inspection charge)
and an increase in sewer' rental
fee from 65 cents per month to $1
for dwellings and establishing a
minimum commercia' rate of $1
per month plus a few cents more
on volume cf water used. "
A resolution seeking to increase
water rates was not passed on
to the city council by the Planning
Commission, but was tetained in
' the Commission ' hopper for pos
sible further study.
In a lengthy discussion several
counciimen expressed themselves
in doubt as to the wisdom of at
tempting to increase water rates
or, for that matter, sewer rates.
Others indicated it was neces
sary to obtain more revenue, vit
ally needed, to ease the burden
of annexing new areas to the city.
In other action .Tuesday night
the Planning Commission approved
an application of C L.. Standish
, to install curb sidewalks on the
south side of Columbia street be
tween North Fifth -street and
Broadway, - and delayed the re
quedt Vc$? Maynard; Haverland to
build courts on North" 18th street
between "D and Center streets.

Movie Tough
Comes to Aid
Of Jailed Son
HOLLYWOOD OB Edward G.
Robinson, noted for bis gangster
roles in the movies, came forward
Tuesday to help his 21-year-old
son, who was arrested on suspicion
of armed robbery.
Edward G. .Robinson Jr. and his
father had been estranged for a
while after the youth's marriage
at the age of 19, but it was the
father who supplied $10,000 bail to
gain the youth's release from jail.
The elder Robinson said he is
behind his boy "100 per cent" and
described the arrest as "fantastic
a case of mistaken identity."
Young Robinson .and a writer
friend. Hick P. Dee, 38, were
picked up at nearby Chatsworth
early Tuesday and jailed. Robin
son was booked on suspicion of
robbery on the complaints of two
cab drivers. Police said cab driver
Michael Joseph Piascik told them
he was struck and robbed of $27
last June 25 and driver Harry
Chernack said he was held up and
robbed of $11 July 2.
- Sgt Roy Bowen said Robinson
was arrested on identifications
made by the taxi drivers.
Dee was arrested on suspicion
of writing checks without sufficient
funds.
Young Robinson, who has been
jailed three times on drunkenness
charges in recent months, told re
porters: "I can't understand why
they picked me up. I never owned
a gun."
Bunclie Notes

For Partition
PORTLAND tfl : There are
precedents for the division of
Indochina, Dr. Ralph Bunche said
here Tuesday.
He pointed out mat artificial
lines have been drawn in
Germany, Korea and Israel and
another is being considered for
fTftesfeV S -I '
Dr. Bunche, who is director of
the U.N.'s trusteeship division,
said the simple question of
whether the settlement is demo
cratic can't be raised because!
"no one has - found out yet
how the Indochinese people feel
about it".
Bunche. who worked out the
peace between the Arabs and the
Jews, expressed surprise about toe
concern over the possibility of Red
China's being admitted to the
U.N. He . said the situation is no
different than it was at other
times when Red China was denied
admission and that the issue cannot
be a live one until there is a
Korean settlement.-

"Th facts of business and eco

such that through their unions, em
ployes enjoy . considerable power
and can bargain with an authority
they could never have as individ

be so. .
"But we do not believe that Con
gress intended an unethical use of
union power-and authority. And
we seriously question the ethics of
the various business arrangements
which we recount here." .
.The ' subcommittee said it was
"urgent", that Congress investigate
fully union handling of rich em
ployer paid welfare funds and
also the extent of union business
competition with employers with
whom the union bargains.
To Supervise
IndochinaVote
(Story also on page one.)
GENEVA (ff) An Indochina
armistice agreement was signed
here, early Wednesday between
French and Vietminh officials.
The cease-fire divides the coastal
state of -Viet Nam.
In Viet Nam, the . two sides
agreed, all Vietnamese elections
will be conducted under a neu
tral supervision team composed
of India, Canada'and Poland,
within one to two years.
Representatives of the rival Viet
Nam regimes. Ho Chi-Minh's Com
munist government in the north
and the Bao Dai administration in
the pro-Western South, are to con
fer on picking the date and manner
of these elections. ,
Civilians on either side of the
partition line will have a year to
decide which section they want to
live in.
The military partition line is thus
in theory a temporary one, but
i te' -1 i -.9 il.
mosi outuais nere couceae wis
probably -will become a political
and ideological frontier similar to
East-West borders in Germany
and Korea.
The American delegation, wit
nessed the signing for the United
States.
The ceremony climaxed - three
months of .tedious negotiations
here, including a " month-long
furious race against time by
French Premier Pierre Mendes
France who had said be would re
sign if he failed to obtain an arm
istice by July 20.
The premier ran over his time
limit a few hours but this was a
mere technicality. The signing fol
lowed a meeting that stretched
into the early hours of the morning.
The, agreements had been vir
tually completed Tuesday night
Part of the delay was because of
time needed to prepare texts of
the agreements and check their
translations.
At the end of the ceremony, the
members of the French group
stood- and shook hands among
themselves as if to congratulate
themselves and their premier on
making his deadline.
