"Fact-finders are not limited to the evidence of data the parties present and the parties involved have no chance to present rebut tal evidence until a decision is rendered," he said. "Under a compulsory arbitra tion approach, the arbitration tri bunal inevitably becomes the dic tator of economic policy with the result that, if its decisions are en forced, inherent managerial rights of industry and free collective bargaining rights of labor are de stroyed."

Rightists Win German Vote FRANKFURT, Germany, Jan. 29-0P)-The slightly right-of center Christian social union emerged from Sunday's elections through out the American occupation zone as the dominant force in rural German politics, but observers here doubted tonight that the par ty would be able to maintain Its dominance when city elections take place in the spring. One high placed American ob server noted that although the communist turnout in rural areas was relatively small, it indicated on the whole that "the party may have considerable strength in the cities." Largely Catholic rural Bavaria, however, tipped the scales yester day away from the social demo crats and in favor of the Christian social union, a recently organized amalgamation of protestant and Catholic interests.
