Meany Agrees To Arbitrate
Tiff Snvolvinq Marine Grouo
New York - 'I'PD - An event
unprecedented in labor annals
will take place Oct. 21 when
AFL-CIO President George
Meany begins arbitration of a
contract dispute involving one
o the labor organization's
member unions.
Meany has been agreed
upon as arbitrator by the
American Merchant Marine
Institute, representing 20 ma
jor steamship companies, and
the Association ot Masters,
Mates and Pilots, represent
ing ships' officers. But no one
could quite agree on the mo
tives behind his selection.
Ships' officers had been on
strike six days and 50 Ameri
can flagships were tied up in
New York harbor when the
Merchant Marine Institute
not the union invited Meany
to arbitrate and promised to
abide by his decisions. He ac
cepted, the union agreed, and
the strike was called off Mon
day night.
The shipowners said the in
vitation to Meany demonstrat
ed their "good faith," but
spokesmen for the union sus
pect it as a publicity seeking
move that backfired. Any
way, Meany vows to do his

"very best" to find a solution
acceptable to both sides.
"If I didn't think I could
be neutral in this matter, I
wouldn't have taken the job,"
he said.
"It was a surprise, and a
lot of people didn't take the
Institute's invitation to me too
seriously at first," Meany ad
mitted. "But I decided to co
operate if both sides -wanted
me, and they did. I don't feel
there's any particular honor
in being selected for this job."
The veteran labor leader
said selection of a union big
wig as arbitrator has never
before occurred to his knowl
edge, and he doesn't "antici
pate it happening again." He
described the East Coast ship
officers' dispute as a "very
particular situation."
"Naturally I couldn't take
the position of arbitrator in
all types of strike negotia
tions," he said. "And I prob
ably wouldn't be asked to in
many situations.'
Capt. Floyd Gaskins, chair
man of the union's negotiat
ing committee, bluntly de
scribed the Merchant Marine
Institute's invitation to Meany
as "a bunch of garbage just
a means of getting a lot of
publicity."
Ralph E. Casey, president
of the Merchant Marine Insti
tute, said the invitation to
Meany was extended as a dem
onstration of management's
good faith. He said Meany's
acceptance would have "far-
reaching consequences" on
the whole shipping industry.

requiring only a "general
cleaning and painting."

Washington -(UPD- The new
Republican "give 'em hell"
campaign gets rolling today
with Vice President Richard
M. Nixon, its apparent author,
at the throttle.
Nixon planned to leave here
by chartered plane for his sec
ond stumping tour of the cur
rent congressional campaign.
He scheduled a three -day
swing through Pennsylvania,
Ohio and West Virginia dur
ing which he was expected to
hammer the new GOP party
line: Thai election of more
Democrats to Congress would
be a step toward socialism.
His first speech was slated
for Philadelphia tonight at a
testimonial dinner for retir
ing Sen. Edward Martin (R.
Pa.). Paying Dividends
The new GOP "get tough"
approach showed signs of pay
ing dividends, at least in the
public statements of Republi
can leaders.
House Republican Leader
Joseph W. Martin Jr. (Mass.)
told United Press Internation
al today he now thinks Repub
1 i c a n s have a "fighting
chance" to capture control of
the House next month. Hith
erto prevailing opinion among
both Democrats and Republi
cans has been that Democrats
will keep control of both
houses or even increase their
majorities.
Democrats had not official
ly decided whether to answer
the GOP "socialism" charge.
The Democratic National com
mittee thus far was advising
of gutter campaigning."
Trade Foreign Policy Charges
Both parties likewise trad
ed charges on foreign policy.
the Democratic candidates to
stress unemployment and the
high cost of living and not
answer the socialism attack.
However Democratic Na
tional Chairman Paul M. But
ler lashed out at Nixon per
sonally, asserting the vice
president was "back in his old
form as the leading advocate
Hatfield Favors
More Economy
Milwaukie, Ore. - (UPD-Sec-retary
of State Mark Hatfield,
Republican candidate for gov
ernor, Tuesday night called
for more economy in state
government .and repeated his
previous charge that' . Gov.
Robert D. Holmes has not
"lived up to his oath of of
fice." Hatfield, speaking at Mil
waukie high school, said gov
ernment cost can be cut by
a revision of the state consti
tution, by breater efficiency
in state, operations and by ap
pointment of qualified people
to state positions. .
Hatfield, continuing his at
tack on Holmes on the "re
spect for oath" issues, said
it "strikes at the very heart
of our form of government."
He said the governor's pub
lic statement last week "that
he would not, as required by
law, visit state institutions be
cause he did not agree with
the law and because he had
other things to do is almost
unbelievable."
Butler accused both Presi
dent Eisenhower and Nixon
of trying to "throttle" all crit
icism of administration Far
East policy. He said that this
showed -"how desperately the
administration now considers
its deteriorating situation as
regards both the offshore
islands and the Republican
prospects in the election."
GOP Chairman Meade Al
corn fired a statement accus
ing the Democrats of taking
a "position of appeasement"
on the Formosa issue. He re
leased a Republican pam
phlet charging the Democrats
with involvement in three
wars, agreeing to "some of the
biggest giveaway deals in his
tory at foreign conference ta
bles" and declaring:
"During Democrat adminis
trations, world Communism
has made its greatest gains."
TEEN-AGE REALTOR '
Buffalo, N.Y. -(UPD- Roberta
M. Neldenger, 14, has quali
fied to become perhaps the
youngest real estate sales
woman in the country. The
teen-ager took the state test
for the job and passed it with
flying colors. Roberta's fa
ther, Edwin J. Neldenger, is
a real estate broker and, an
appraiser for the State Board
of Equalization and Assess
ment. Her mother is a li
censed real estate sales

her husband insisted Roberta
could take the test under the
state rules since the law
didn't specify any minimum
age. So she did and passed.
Four Reach Safety
As Train Hits Car
Eugene -(UPD- A Creswell
mother and her three daugh
ters scrambled to -safety on
Tuesday when their car stall
ed on railroad tracks about

Wheat Contract
Signed With India
Pendleton -UPD- The U.S.
Agriculture Department this
week signed a contract to de
liver more than 100 million :
bushels of wheat to India and 1
more than 22 million bushels !
of the 'order are expected to j
be shipped from the Pacific
Northwest, according to Dick
Baum, administrator of the j
Oregon Wheat Commission. !
Baum said he expected the
sale to "firm up the wheat
market," but not as spectacu-
larly as two years ago." He ;
predicted prices would rise j
because the Indian govern-:
ment would pay more than !
S238 million under the con
tract, S80 million for wheat
and the rest for grains, corn
and transportation.
Under the contract, the
wheat must be delivered to
Indian ports by Dec. 31, 1959,

WHICH
WASH-n-WEAR
Will Fall APART?
Select Wash-n-Wear Clothes
for Children Carefully
if you choose to buy them. One brand
may launder satisfactorily. Another
may turn dirty yellow or fall apart.
This may happen to dress or sport
shirts, blouses, work or play clothes,
or other wash-n-wear fabrics and gar
ments, white or colored, normally
bleached for stain removal and reten
tion of original whiteness.
According to American Institute
of Laundering, inferior wash-n-wear
garments may be made with certain
resin finishes that absorb chlorine from
hypochlorite bleach, commonly used.
This can't rinse out and heat from
ironing creates an acid which yellows
or destroys the fabric.
If you boy wash-n-wear or other wash
ables, be sure they carry the CERTIFIED
WASHABLE SEAL of American Institute
