Morse Demands Action
By Government To End
Soft Coal Controversy
WASHINGTON. May 8 (P
Senator Morse (R-Ore.) called
today for the government to
"use uch means as are at its
disposal to bring about t fair
Snd just settlement" of the soft
coal strike.
He told a reporter he believed
the failure of governmental,
labor and business leaders to
settle their disputes by volun
tary arbitration was a "sad re
flection" upon them.
"As I have said before," he
said, "if a labor dispute in any
field starts to endanger the pub
lic welfare and the parties
thereto refuse to use voluntary
procedures for the settlement of
their differences, any govern
ment that deserves to bear the
name of representing the public
interests of its people, must take
a hand and use such means as
are at its disposal for bringing
about a fair and just settlement
of the controversy.

Mayor Faces
Angry Council
(Continued from Page One)
terrupted to say that the reason
the meeting had been called was
to work out a more harmonious
feeling and sense of cooperation
between the council and the
mayor. "If that's possible," add
ed Landry, bitterly.
"It's the same old story, we
aren't getting anyplace,"
shrugged Cantrall.
Hard Work
"I've worked harder as mayor
than when I was in my own busi
ness," said Ostendorf, "and this
is the thanks I get."
"And you're running it as if
it were your own business," Lan
dry declared.
Trying to inject a note of har
mony into the heated discussion.
Cantrall asserted that the council
wants to help the mayor. "We
have to put aside disunity," he
stated. Ostendorf answered that
the council started the argument,
that he was perfectly willing to
cooperate.
Cantrall pointed out the severe
criticism to which the council
had been subjected on matters
he claimed were the mayor's re
sponsibility for not keeping the
council informed. As, recent ex
amples, he gave the -parking
meter question, the airport, and
the ball park.
The mayor ended the discus
sion with the councilmen, who
were little more satisfied than
before the meeting, by saying
that they would be invited to
every committee meeting held,
and minutes of every meeting
would be sent to them. As a
parting comment he added,
"Then if you don't come and
don't know what's going on,
don't blame me."

About Swimming Site
Mayor Ed Ostendorf at yes
terday afternoon's special coun

city recreation committee in
recommending purchase of the
win Humphrey site on . Main
street, near the Soule property,
as a location lor a swimming
pool and recreation center.
No action was taken by the

set by the city appraisal com
mittee. An artesian hot water
well on the property enhances
its value as location for a swim
ming pool, the mayor explained.
