College Dean Laid To Rest

Providence, R. l., July g. Hun dreds of Providence College alumni and scores of Rhode Islands edu- cators and civic leaders paid trib- ute yesterday morning to the late Rev. Dr. Arthur H. Chandler, O. F., dean of Providence College since 1880, at a Pontifical Mass of re- quiem, celebrated by the Most Rev. Francis P. Keough, D. D., Bishop of Providence, in the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul. Dean Chandler died at the College early Friday morning following an illness of several weeks.
 The Rev. Charles H. McKenna, o. F., chaplain of Providence Col lege, delivered the eulogy from the text of the Book of Wisdom: For his soul pleased God; therefore he hastened to bring him out of the midst of iniquities." Recalling that Father Chandler had stood six months ago in the same pulpit to eulogize the late president of Prov idence College, the Very Rev. John J. Dillon, O. P. Father McKenna reviewed the late deans religious and sckalarly life. The eulogy stressed Dean Chandler's part in the founding of two colleges. as Providence Colleges first professor of English when it opened in 1919, and as first profession of philo- sophy at Albertus Magnus College, New Haven, Conn.,, in 1925.
 His whole life was lived for God" Father McKenna said. He struggled daily to live with God, and his mission, whether in the classroom or the pulpit, whether in the administrative office or in the sanctuary, was primarily to bring others closer to God. In the realm of public life, his aim was to pre- pare men and women to take their rightful place in society as leaders and as citizens and to share with others the benefits of their cultural and religious training"
 Dean Chandler was born in New Haven, Conn, February 27, 1893 He entered the Dominican Order in 1910 and was ordained a priest in 1917. An alumnus of the Catholic University of America, Washington D. C., he held the M. A., IL. D., and Sc. D. degrees. From 1919 he was professor of English and Philo- sophy at Providence College. He returned to Providence College in 1930 to become dean of studies, a post he held at his death. Burial was in St. Francis cemetery, Paw tucket, and the bearers were off, cers of the Providence College Alumni Association.

looked discouraging. Contract nego- tiations between the third big pro- ducer, the B. F. Goodrich Company, and its local, are in much better shape, but union spokesmen would not concede the probability that the few remaining differnces can be adjusted amicably.
 GREATER LOSS THREATENED
 Firestone and Goodrich each en- ploys almost as many factory work CTS as Goodyear does in its tire and rubber division. The loss to the arm- ed forces, if either should close down, would be only little less than that from the Goodyear strike.
 The critical importance of air. planes, both bombers and fighters, in both current and impending phases of the war against Japan, makes almost inevitable the ques- tion raised by nearly every person with whom I have discussed this strike, except representatives of the rubber workers locals (CIO) that are conducting the strike and threat ened strikes:
 How can they do 1t? Their own boys are fighting in the Pacific"
 The best answer can find is that

tubes in reserve = somewhere ito meet all immediate needs.
 George R. Bass, executive secre- tarY of the Akron Industrial Union Council, told me that he knew de- finitely there is no such shortage because:
 CD. The B. F. Goodrich Com- pany had been shut down for 10 days on 19.00-23 size airplane tires.
 CD. Goodrich production on 56-inch tires used for B-17, B-24 and B-29 tires has been cut down, and the company tried to persuade workers to take their full vacations while the plant is shut down for equipment repairs.
 6. Half the Goodrich capacity for making hand-huilt (larger sized) plane tires is lying idle.
 If the Goodyear strike really were threatening a shortage, Bass said, then Goodrich would be pushed into full production on these tires. And, for another proof:
 (40 The Army or the Navy would have seized the Goodyear plant if the alleged shortage were real Their failure to do so, Bass contends, is evidence that the Army-Navy statements are anti union and false.
 T. G. Graham, vice-president of the B. F. Goodrich Company in charge of production, brought out detailed production and schedule records when I asked about the unions evidence" and showed me

Army And Navy Charge Strikers Hurt Pacific War Effort By Shutting Off Tire Production

for July is as high ss we have ev been able to produce under pressure. For longer than 10 days we did not make 19.00-2S's. This size formerly was used, on Fort resses and Liberators, but was re- placed by the 56-inchers, 80 we stopped making the 19.00-23as. Then they were specified for q Curtiss cargo plane, and we have started up on them again. Both are critical sizes. We are running to capacity on both. If we could squeeze out another few day we would. During vacation period WE are giving these sizes priority and assuring that they are made 70 capacity.
 CUTBACK SMALL TIRES
 Because of the nature of the war in the Pacific there are sub- stantial cutbacks on the smaller sizes of plane tires, which we have been making on passenger tire machines that have been modified for the purpose. As such machines are released, we are re converting these machines at top speed to their original purpose so as to make passenger-car tires aS soon and as fast as we can"
 The evidence available in Akron appears to support the Army-Navy contention that the Goodyear strike is shutting of from the Pacific front tires that are badly needed for blasting Japan out of the war with a minimum loss of American lives.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-07-03


 AS of tonight, July 3, Allied bombers and fighters in the Pacific war zones, will have been deprived by the 16,700 striking Goodyear workers fl 500 tires and 25,2o0 tubes.
 The Navy warned publicly, when the strike was only one week old, that even then it had been forced to send retreaded and damaged tires, including some with bad side walls, to fliers in the Pacific.
 Six days later the Army and Navy, in a joint statement, said that otherwise completed Corsairs and Avengers wre being held back from the Pacific front for lack of tires, brake material and self-seal- ing gasoline tanks that the Good year plant was to have manufactur- ed, but couldn't with all production workers on strike.
 Both statements said flatly that the strike is costing the lives of American soldiers, sailors and Mar ines.
 Meanwhile workers at Firestone, another of the big three in Akron, have voted to strike. When I talked with union and company spokesmen and with informed observers, the chances of a peaceful settlement

Narsarssuak, Greenland, July 3-- (UP) - Eleven American soldiers have been trapped since Jan. 8 at remote weather and radio outpost in Skjoldungen on the bleak east coast of Greenland, it was revealed today by Col. Eugene H. Rice, conl- manding officer of the Greenland base command.
 The command still is awaiting the late Arctic spring to bring the II out by boat or plane. Early attempts at rescue by boat failed. n
 The II, members of the 7th army airways communications system group and the 9th weather squadron were comfortably seconded in their barracks beneath 8 mountainside on Jan. 8 when an avalanche buried their camp beneath 20 feet of snow. Col. Rice revealed. After days of digging the soldiers salvaged food enough for three months and a generator. The housing for the lat- ter, however, had been destroyed and only high walls of snow pro- tected it from the bowling Arctic gales. When the men got the ma- chine working weather reports were made on reduced scale until more equipment was landed by parachute.
 As there was constant danger Of more snowslides, base headquarters ordered the II to move from their barracks to a weather-radio station on arocky summit safe from the threatening snow.
 An attempt to rescue the men by coast guard cutter failed. The Skjoldungen Fjord was impossible because of ice, so the men were iri- formed that they would have to re- main until Spring
 Supplies and equipment were par- achuted to them and their daily re- ports to this base say that they are reasonably happy but anxious for the weather to break up.
 The II, who have been commend- ed for outstanding performance un" der stress.
