courage both Houses of Congress

gram as it is necessary in approach

'Coo|ing-0ff' Periods
Provided in Mediation
Plan, Dyksira Says
Board Head Declares
Presidents Order Has
Established Procedure
Earlier Story on Page AID
Bv LANES FREE,

Dr. Clarence A. DykStra, chairman
of the National Defense Mediation
Board, said this afternoon he be-
lieved one provision of the Presi-
dents order creating the board es-
tablishes, in effect. a cooling of"
that should prevent interference
with defense production because of
strikes. The statement was made
following the boards first meeting.
Comparatively little attention had
been devoted to the section of the
order referred to by Dr.. Dykstra
due to its mild wording. 1t specifies
that employers and employees
should give to the Cancellation
Service of the Department of Labor
and to the Office of Production
Management notice in writing
of any desired change in existing
agreements. wages or working con-
ditions and such sufficient ad-
vance notice of any threatened in
terruptions to continuous produc-
tion - ."
The word should in the order
does not mean that the parties
concerned must give the advance
notice, does it?' Dr.. Dykstra was
asked at a press conference when
the board adjourned for lunch.
Includes Giving Notice.
We'll" replied DR.. Dykstra.
earlier in that same provision it
is stated clearly that it is :. the
duty of employers and employees en-
gagged in production or transporta-
ton of materials essential to ma
tlonal defense to exert every possible
effort to settle all their disputes
without any interruption in produc-
ton or transportation That duty,
1t seems to me, certainly includes
giving sufficient advance notice"
The cooling off period. he eX-
planned, should give the Labor De-
partment Cancellation Service ample
time to try to settle labor troubles
before certifying the "unadjustable"
ones over to the mediation board.
DR.. Dykstra declared that the
board, after considerable discussion,
was convinced that it can consider
no cases except those certified to it
by the Labor Department.
There are no side or back doors
allowed in the Presidents executive
order" he said. Nothing can come
before the board except what is Ger
titled to it. That will protect the
board from those trying to get to it
by circuitous route. We will handle
cases only when something more
than conciliation is required"
These facts were made clear. DR..
