5 I r- Z I I i i ) rT Y MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. Thursday, Jan. 7, 1960 In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS A this is written, steel is still Xhe big news - followed closely by the political impli cations of the steel agreement, in the reaching of which Vice President Nixon and Secre tary of Labor Mitchell played an important part. It seems certain that the strike will not be resumed. But problems remain. One of them is the wage-price spiral. Will it go on spiraling? Or can it be checked - and maybe leveled off? Answers to these questions are not yet forthcoming. A SUGGESTION to the steel people - on both sides: An agreement has been reached. The mills will go on producing. The workers will go on working. Steel will be available for the making of automobiles and all the myr riad other things that are made of steel. The public will go on buying American steel products - unless they are priced out of the market. Why not just accept what has been done and give it the old college try to see if it can be made to work? "JllAYBE, if they go at it with courage and determina tion, the steel operators can trim out some unsound busi ness practices. Maybe the workers, back at work after a long period of enforced idle ness, can eliminate some of their costlier work practices. Maybe some waste on both sides can be squeezed out, so that American steel prices can be kept competitive with the prices of foreign producers. That would be good for the nation (and its 180 million people). What is good for the nation as a whole can hardly fail to be good for the steel people - on both sides of the economic fence. GENERATION or so ago, somebody drew a famous cartoon. It depicted two mules, They were standing between two shocks of hay. They were haltered together. Every time one mule started toward a shock of hay, the other PULL ED BACK. Thus pulling and hauling against each other, they were getting pretty hun gry. THEN Finally One mule whispered in the other mule's ear. The other mule listened. As he listened, the anger and frustration on his face changed to enlighten ed comprehension. He whis pered back. The upshot of it was that they quit pulling and hauling and WORKED TOGETHER. Working together, they trot ted over to one shock of hay and polished it off. Then they trotted over to the other hay shock and polished it off. Thus COOPERATING, in stead of checkmating each other's every move, they grow fat and sleek. AND Not only were the MULES pleased with the results of this friendly and intelligent cooperation. Their OWNER was pleased because he had better and more efficient mules. So they all lived happily ever afterward. JUST a dream, you say? Well, dreams sometimes come true.
