Member, -Auoolated Pnm Member Audit Bureau , Circulation Today's Roundup ; By MALCOLM EPLEY XIRTUAIXY every settlement ot ; V labor dis pute is compromise. The two sides hold out for certain concessions, and finally, when the chips are down, both find it advisable to give a little and thus the middle ground of settlement is reached. That was what happened in the settlement of the AFL , lumber strike in the Klamath ; basin district. The original minimum wage was 87 cents. The union asked for $1.10. 1 Operators came .through with. . a proposal for $1.3 The union -then made a compromise, pYtr- ' posal of $1.02 tt) and. that Was -X EPLEY the figure finally agreed "upon. ' ' Inasmuch as $1.02H; was, the union's own pro posal, and that was vthe inal settlement, it looked on the surface that; the union had won the argument On i the other hand, the, settle-, mcnt retained'- "the'Warea differential between pine and fir,-as well as the intra-industry dif- ferential--between remanufacturing and saw ' milling jobs. Thus. . it appears that both sides ' were willing "to give a little and thus bring an ' end to a costly . stoppage.-. v ;';..; Stability ThQoal,- THE northwest council: of the AFL,-.strategy board for the regional strike, has-indicated ' j it is annoyed at the settlement here. It claims - the terms of the settlement preclude the union- : ' ists from raising the wage issue again in 1946.; We. do not find that specifically stated iff the text of the agreement, but it is true that the. ' negotiators on both sides stated it -was" their intention that this settlement.should take-care :; of wage problems in 1946. . -.yiyu' . V. : That appears to us to be the expression, of a (' -- -desire to establish stability in labor-management ' . -.; relations for -the coming calendar year," and J certainly stability is desirable from the .stand- ". ? point of both the working man and thC"opera- V J tor. Therefore, we do' not regard thedeclared "f inieDDon oi me negguatura, as expresaea m-.; ; their' agreement, as necessarily a "concession" won by the operators. All hands will probably - - be glad to go through the year without disputes ' t that reach the costly, stage of the strike just I ended. -- s . . k Unquestionably! if conditions became such . that the agreed-upon wage structure was ob- ltlniielv anH - MtHrtiielw Ant rxr lino 1r turn 1 1 rl risk possible to open wage discussions.

Byrnes avows the Christmas season peace he made at Moscow is an excellent compromise of difficult divergent views a 50-50 settlement. He is prejudiced. He made the agreement. To an objective analyst, . the agreement .-resembles the rabbit stew prepared by Old Trader Joe out in the Dakotas and sold to the Indians. One day an Indian complained about the rabbit stew. He said: - "It tastes like horsemeat." "Oh no," said Trader Joe in an Injured tone. "It has good rabbit in it." ' "But does it have any horsemeat?" asked the , Indian. "Only 50-50," conceded Joe. "Whattayamean fifty-fifty?" shouted the Indian. "This is horsemeat."' -- ' "Well, if you want to! know;" confessed Joe, "I always use in each. preparation one rabbit and one horse." ; , . . , ' For Japan, a nation we conquered and oc cupied alone, there is to be established a governing commission of the so-called United Nations, each with a veto power. We are to surrender our control to other nations, includ ing Russia. . But for the nations Russia conquered and oc - cupied alone, there are to be no governing com missions. We do hot have a veto power in any. Nor does any other nation. m w m Won "Concessions" IN Romania and Bulgaria, both enei.. I now in Russian hands.'Mr. Stalin pronuJnW.'d himself in favor of matters as they now stand, says our state secretary. But Mr. Byrnes thinks he won something he considers as "concessions' bv Russia in Bulgaria and Romania. As re- sards Bulgaria, the agreement says: "The Soviet government takes upon itself ' the responsibility of giving friendly advice to the Bulgarian government. . .' There it will insist upon some additional "leaders who "are really suitable" (?) and who will "work loyally" (!). As soon as Stalin finds men who are really suitable and who will work loyally, then, the United States and Great Britain will recognize that government but Mr. Byrnes says Stalin is already satisfied. ' The rabbit is somewhat larger for Romania "Free and unfettered elections," are advised there, - "as soon as possible," and the reorgan ized government "should" mark ydu, need not, but "should give assurances concerning the grant of freedom of the press, speech, religion and association" none of which basic Atlantic Charter -freedoms- are mentioned for Bulgaria. Mr.. Stalin' willatlet a threeiation committee in to see things,, "and allow one representative of two parties . set into the government some- -, where. These are the -hares of Mr. Byrnes' stew, the -'-concessions'? i. won for our way of life. "Even the remaining horsemeat is doubtful and vague. J Korea we splitTvith Russia 50-50. China, we will withdraw from, leaving Chiang to survive tommunist revolution if he can. The conquest of northern Iran by Russia not mentioned; nor is Yugoslavia, already under Russian controls. -.. Free Hand In Japan MR. BYRNES says General MacArthur will have a free hand in Japan, but the agree ment says otherwise. To the United Nations commission is specifically entrusted all matters of "politics, principles and standards" which seems to cover everything. ."" . : While Russia has but one vote (and Britain six against our two on the commission), any nation can veto any MacArthur act in practical effect, by demanding a "review.' - Mr. Byrnes forgot to mention that we can act in emergencies "only following consultation and the attainment of agreement in the com mission, even as to "fundamental changes in the regime of control.' As for the atomic bomb, Mr Byrnes says we are to give away no secrets, but the agreement says the United Nations commission which is to have charge is to proceed "with the utmost dispatch" to "exchange basic scientific infor mation" between all nations, and even provide methods of inspection inside nations to protect against violations in the use of the bomb, A seat for Russia is specifically provided on that commission, and the commission is to be set up by the assembly of the United Nation meeting, in London January 7. The wording of the agreement, therefore, naturally suggests Russia would have to get "basic scientific information" within a few weeks or a few months at most and a few days at least, if everyone acts "with utmost dispatch and inspect our bomb plants. The Byrnes recipe for peace thus certainly includes: The hair of one hare. ' The tail of another. One horse (with a secret ingredient of bear, nussian Dear;.: Absolutely no caviar or champagne.
