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

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

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."
