TU 4-4752 Jlr Anil Tliore By BILL JENKINS There has been a good deal of talk recently about whcther'or not the climate is changing here in the Northwest. Ever since I can remember which is about from the days when people believed that cherries and milk at the same meal would prove fatal there has been specu lation about the Japanese Current swinging in closer to land and warming up the coastal areas of Washington, Oregon and California. Now I get word that a gal by the name of Margaret K. Robin son, who is with Scripps Institution of Oceanography, says that it just ain't so. Not out in deep water anyhow. She has gone hack over the last 120 years' worth of records of temperature and salinity and come up with the conclusion that If, as has been suggested, the climate ol the northern hemisphere is get ling progressively warmer, t h c change in Ihe deep water has been fo slight that our observations do not clearly show it. So there you are. Put back on those long johns and face up to it like a man, man. Economic note: The Department of the Interior will spend nearly SW.OOO.OOO in the Pacific North Vest during fiscal lUW). Biggest chunk of this cash will go toward Bonneville Power proj ects and Reclamation projects over the area. Outside the mere mundane mon ey making projects we will see an expenditure of KMn.OOO by the Bu reau of Sport Fisheries and Wild life for various things and the construction of more than 500 addi tional camp units by the National .Park Service. Sometime during this period, al though it is probably not of much Importance, I plan to lay out a small amount of cash for the pur ' chase of a new fly rod. But 1 don't suppose this will be included ', In the federal record. ' It has now been 23 days since I have seen a water skier on the I'pper Lake. '. Is this a sign that winter is coming?

Harry Borel. Dirlv Words By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON (AP) - The two dirtiest words for big unions and big management are "com pulsory arbitration." But that's what they may be headed for. In time, at least. The sleel strike shows why. Under a compulsory arbitration law the government would step in when union and management tailed to apree on wages and wot king conditions and dictate a settlement which both sides would have lo accept. The ideal in labor-management relations in a free society is for both sides to have complete free dom from government interfer ence in settling disputes. Freedom includes freedom to shut down a plant or strike it. This ideal Is shared by the Eisenhower administration and perhaps by most Americans Nevertheless, it is a limited ideal: It begins to lose its app-al when a labor dispute begins to cause broad damage. There wasn't much of a national problem when American society was more primitive and injury from a strike or shutdown was pretty much limited to the union or company or companies in volved. This is no longer the case In this present complex society .vith lis .various parts growing more interdependent, a prolonged strike in one vital industry can throw millions out of jobs in other industries and start an economic lailspin. And this nal ion's complexities and inlerdcpendencies of today arc only a shadow of what they will be in the years ahead as the population increases and indus tries interlock in their needs. It Is possible and this writer strongly believes it is likely that I lie time is coming when the gov ernment, for the sake of the na tion, will not permit strikes in vital industries. That, ot course, raises a nice question: What is a vital indus try? At this time and oflhand il is easy lo think of some which lit that category " because a strike in any of Ihein affects the national wcllarc: Railroads, Steel, Airlines, Com munications. Rut right there an argument begins. Many industries arc engaged in communications in some form, such as telephone, telegraph, newspapers, television, rwlin. Would all of them be considered vital? If the' time comes when Congress considers a ban on strikes in communications or any olher vital industry it will have the light of its life on its hands, and (or this reason: Each industry, like each in dividual, and each union would waul lo retain for itself the maxi mum amount of freedom. Bui if a ban on strikes comes, then the government will have to provide a settlement and that, in the end, could only he done by imposing compulsory arbitration. The steel strike is now in Its 15th week. At the start or it Presi dent Eisenhower relused lo per mit direct government interven tion. He wanted Ihe union and the steel industry to have the utmost freedom lo reach a settlement of SHORT RIBS REAfrY" 9 a their own through collective bar gaining. The union and management be tween them made the collective bargaining process a farce. And O'l Oct. 10, when Eisenhower de cided to seek an injunction to stop Ihe strike for 80 days, ho said: "In order to protect the in terests of all the American peo ple. Ibis leaves me with no alter native. American hopes for a vol untary responsible settlement hive not been fulfilled. It is a sad day for the nation." He acted only when the effect of the strike began to spread into other industries with the danger, unless something was done to stop it. that the country might go tumbling back into recession. Before Congress ever goes so far as lo ban strikes and impose compulsory arbitration, it almost surely will seek some less drastic measure but one sterner than any now available. That may work for a while. But in the end, in the years ahead, (his writer believes a strike in an essential industry alfecting the na tional welfare will not be per mitted. I'YlM SMMM'll By FRANK ELEAZER WASHINGTON UPI There may be a number of institutions more bound by tradition than the U.S. Senate, where the members are still presumed to dip snuff. One 1 can think r is the U. S. Supreme Court, where a circum spect lawyer' would be highly em barrassed to sneeze. Senators tend to be lawyers of course. But all concerned think it's just as well they practically never push Iheir right Co turn up in court across the street and ac tually argue a case. The other day. one did. And though the formal discus sion that day was all about tide lauds, and who owns the oil un derneath, the whispered conversa tion was about what happened when the irrcsistable force finally met up with the immovable body. Next to keeping Ircsh snuff in the boxes, free speech is the Sen ate's most, cherished tradition. Once on his feet and talking, a senator can't be stopped till he drops. Court tradition makes no provision (or snuff. And "except (or (lie justices' questions, it runs sharply to keeping things short. Court convenes at noon, quits at 2, reconvenes al 2:30, and two hours later is through for the day. The lawyer is lucky who gets 30 minutes to talk. He stands at a lectern on which is printed a warning lo start winning up when a while light shows under his nose. When a red light comes on live minutes later, Ihe law yer is told, he has just concluded his statement. There is nothing in the rec ord to show that Sen. Spcssard L. Holland (D-Fla.) is any windier timn the average of his Senate colleagues. It can be said at least that he doesn't speak olten. lie appeared in court lo lay claim lor Florida lo more of the tide lands than Ihe government wants to turn loose. The court kindly gave him an hour. Holland was called lo the lec tern al 4:20 p.m. He looked at Ihe clock and suggested that the court might want to wait till to morrow to hear him, so he wouldn't have lo quit just as he got into his case. Justice Hugo L. Black, who was presiding, said Ihe senator better take his 10 minutes now. Holland did, and hinted in closing that maybe the court wanted today to sit late, and let him continue HI nek said firmly the court would hear him further tomorrow. Tomorrow came and, with 50 minutes to go, Ihe senator spoke egretfully of his limited time. He said apologetically he would have to lorego some details. What with By Frank O'Neal OHE! 2.

"I see," the senator said, in an understatement that was, up td then, the day's record, "that I have very little time left." Black, in the interest of comity between the coordinate branches of government, deftly replied: "II yuur time is up, you go right ahead." Some lawyers present viewed this as a cue to wind up in a sentence or two. "Well, I'll make it as short as I can," was the perfectly natural way the senator viewed it. The clerk, in accordance with Black's invitation, turned off the red light. "I shall not belabor the point . . ." the senator was saying a few minutes later when the signals again turned to red. "t will have to proceed more rapidly than I had expected," the senator said. ' "I'm afraid, senator," said Black finally, easily topping Hoi land's earlier record for under- talement, "that .your time is about up." "May I trespass only in this egard," Holland went on, as law yers, justices, cicrKS ana uie more private spectators stirred, "if the court will indulge me. One more statement and I am through." He made -it and quit, 13 min utes late. You could loll the court must have been shaken. Anyway, it awarded an extra 13 minutes to the government, which in its wildest dreams wouldn't have asked it. So the irrcsistable tide of sena lorial oratory had collided with the immutable limitations of the high court. As I always figured il would, something gave.
