Assistant Secretary of Labor Ed
ward F. McGrady succeeded IN
aggranging the conference as
chances for peaceful settlement OF
the Pacific Coast Maritime strike
were endangered through the iSsu-
ancs OF statements by the dis
putants charging each other with
bad faith.
McGrady attached great import
ance to the meeting OF the Masters
and Thomas C. Plants coaStwiSe
shipownerS committee. He brought
the two sides together last week
the conference reaching a stale
mate when the shipownerS refused
the unions demand for prefer
entail employment.
Efforts Of Harry Lundeberg,
Sailors union secretary, for a
coastwiSe referendum on the ten
tative agreement he reached with
offShore and Alaska trade operat-
orS were blocked temporarily due
to pressure brought by the joint
strike and policy committee.
The vote will be held in abey-
ance until a tentative agreement
has been reached with steam schoo-
ner operators, Lundeberg said.
]. E. Ferguson, Marine Firemen,
Oilers, WatertenderS and Wipers'
association secretary, summoned his
organizations negotiating commit
tee TO San Francisco for consider
alton of the tentative agreement
he reached with offShore and
Alaska trade operators.
II the committee approves terms,
the members will will return TO
their home ports and explain the
PROVISIONS to the men, Ferguson
said. Following the recommenda-
tions OF the maritime federation
the Pacific coast, the leaders do
not contemplate voting on the
agreement until the remaining
unions have reached accord with

WAR DANGERS
Continued from Page u


these are the progenitors OK war.
IF peoples tolerated war in the
past, it has become impossible for
them TO do so any longer. For
the instruments of destruction
which have been invented are
now so devastating in their effects
that compromise with them is no
longer possible. To attempt to hu-
mamie war is no longer possible" :"
Hull declared the free peoples
of the world "are no longer thrill
ed by the panoply of the militar-
lists. Nor are they carried away
by the hysteria of propaganda for
war. They know that the love OF
power is a thing of evil. They
would cry halt to any who
through love of power, would break
the peace.
Those who sit in the masters
seats and shape the deStinies of
the men are under the most inn
perative of mandates to leave no
other course, which may avoid
war, unexplored.
II keenly feel that in our laborS
here we have done more than to
coordinate the machinery to pre-
serve the peace of our own repub-
lies. I cannot emphasize too
strongly that we are in no sense
moving toward a policy of conti-
mental isolation.
I'm recent years the entire in
ternational order has suffered Sc

East Getting Taste
For Silver Dollars

DENVER. Colo, Dec. o. UP-
The metropolitan east, which for
decades has liked TO crinkle its
caper dollars, has developed a
taste for clinking silver ones. For
the first time in years, the Denver
mint has been deluged with re-
quests for silver money from east
e-n cities. Nearly s75o,oo0 in silver
dollars has been shipped east since
Dec. !. No scarcity IS likely in
Denver. however. as the requests
have had little effect upon the $50

OPTIMISM OVER

Times Special
ECONOMY, Ind, Jan. l7-Dr. ].
r. King, who is 66 and has been
a general practitioner in Indiana
for the last 40 years, today said he
is optimistic about the feasibility of
the plan that he provide medical
care for the people of Economy on
contract basis.
The plan, for which contracts are
being printed today and on which a
campaign among laymen is to be-
gin as soon as possible. provides
that all persons wno sign con-
tracts are to receive ell but extraor-
binary medical services at total
cost per family unit of SIS a year.
Although he doesn't expect the
campaign to have advanced far
enough for so contracts to be signed
and the plan put into operation un-
til April /, DR.. King today dis
cussed with enthusiasm the prob
able benefits that will accrue to the
community.
It's the preventive medicine fea-
ture of the proposal that appeals
most strongly to DR.. King, and
about which he is most enthusiastic
He feels, he says, that the compul-
sorry annual physical examination
OF all members of families holding
contracts will be great factor in
controlling illness.
Plan May Check Illness
I'VE can find, believe" he said,
the beginnings of illnesses and
check them before they nave a
chance to seriously impair the health
OF the patients.
Then. too, rather think the
plan will be definite check on in
cipient epidemics.
DO you believe that the plan
after a reasonable operating time,
will have any definite beneficial eff
feet on the health of the community
as a whole?" he was asked.
I rather imagine it will" ne said.

died by this appointee. The physi-
clan himself will handle none.
If DR.. King should decide to take
a vacation, it will be his financial
responsibility to obtain a substi-
tute for the duration of the vaca-
ton, he said.
DR.. King said that the guiding
light of the entire plan was Paul
