0 o o o Kennufy' Step Secretary o u o of ln&or Mi k High Re By United Press International Arthur J. Goldberg, new labor secretary, believes union-management disputes are similar to marital spats. "No one would think of dis solving a marriage because of a few disagreements," Gold berg says. "The solution is for both sides to be flexible and find some way of living to gether in harmony." This conciliatory, long range approach to industrial relations illustrates why the 52-year-old Goldberg is held in high regard by top manage ment, labor and the intellec tual community. He is not dogmatic, and scoffs at the class-warfare talk SECTION B PAGES 1 to 8 Medford, Tribune MEDFORD, OREGON, MONDAY, JANUARY 23, 1061 Growers Are Told Orchard Heaters in Area Being Changed Jackson county fruit grow ers have converted slightly more open type heaters than their agreement with county officials calls for, Dunbar Car penter, chairman of the air pollution committee, told the Jackson County Fruit Grow ers League Friday. Carpenter said a check with valley suppliers of orchard heaters reveals 20,160 have been sold so far. The agreement made with the county court and the Air Pollution Abatement League here calls for conversion of 10,000 heaters a year. Last year growers converted slight ly more than that number. Urges Compliance Carpenter urged full com pliance with the agreement to forestall restrictive legis lation. He noted that Presto-Logs are still being used to heat orchards. About 500 acres will be heated by this method this year, he said. This is an economical type of orchard heating for small orchards threatened with frost, and may be advantageous to the larger operations, he noted. Paul Culbertson reported on the work of the experiment station and county extension committee. More personnel and a larger staff are urgent ly needed, he said. More money will be needed June 30 to continue the pear decline research program. Transfer of property from the old Southern Oregon Branch Experiment station to the Hanley experimental farm near Jacksonville has largely been completed, he said. Urges Membership Steve Nye reported on the legislative committee and urged the pear growers to join the Farm Bureau so they could join forces with the state's agriculture. Other reports were given by committees on public rela tions, finance, packing school, farm labor camp, and irriga tion. A no-host dinner will be held Monday night at Kim's restaurant to honor County Extension Agent Don Berry who is taking graduate work at the University of California at Davis, League President Charles Henry announced ARTHUR J. GOLDBERG One Happy Family of some union chiefs as a remnant of a bygone age. Sen. Barry Goldwater (R Ariz.) an arch critic of some labor leaders, once said that Goldberg was the only union spokesman he could "talk to" on legislation without getting angry. Defends Newspaper Guild The scholarly looking law yer began fighting labor's legal battles on behalf of the Chicago Newspaper Guild dur ing a violent strike in the late 1930s. His success in that and many other conflicts - includ ing most of the postwar steel negotiations - stamped him as one of the nation s top labor lawyers. Insiders report that a staff of experts headed by Gold berg - not the union's elected officers worked out final details of the settlement of the 116-day steel strike in January, 1960. Former CIO president Phil Murray, searching for an able, anti-Communist lawyer for the CIO and the Steelworkers selected Goldberg to become general counsel of both or ganizations in 1948. Goldberg promptly laid the strategy for expelling a dozen Communist-dominated unions from the old CIO and played a vital role in the AFL-CIO merger in 1955. In addition, t h e trim, tweedy-looking Goldberg be came a Uacter in organized labor's legislative battles for improved minimum wage, jobless benefits and union re form laws. Helps Oust Teamttert He took a major role in ouster of the Teamsters Union from the AFL-CIO in 1957 after acting, in effect, as spe cial prosecutor of Teamsters officials Dave Beck and Jim my Hoffa. Born in near poverty on Aug. 8, 1908, on Chicago's West Side, Goldberg was the youngest of eight children. He was graduated from high school at the age of 15 and admitted to the bar before he was 21. He was graduated from Northwestern Law School, sum ma cum laude. For relaxation - when he finds time to relax - Goldberg likes legitimate theater, mod ern art and horse racing. The walls of his comfort able brick home are hung with canvases painted by his wife, the former Dorothy Kur gans, a professional artist. In line with his view that no irreconcilable gulf exists between management and labor, Goldberg said when he was appointed: "Virtually all Americans work for a living or seek to do so. In a very real sense, therefore, the Department of Labor is a department of and for all Americans." gard by Labor and Management City Firemen Are Called 62 Times BOOK PRESENTED Don Jackson, cenler, president of the Oregon State Junior Cham ber of Commerce, is shown above as lie pre sented a book, "Young Men Can Change the World," to Omar Bacon, librarian of the Public Library of Medtord and Jackson county.
