Laos:
Fighting

The army of Laos, a tiny pro-
Western kingdom in old Indo-
China, late last week had appar-
emily driven out invading tribes
men from Communist North Wet
Nam and restored the integrity
of its borders. But there were
two disturbing rumors which
could bring new grief to Laos and
a threat to peace in Asia.
First, it was reported without
confirmation that the invaders
were masSing five battalions just
across the frontier. Second, and
potentially more ominous, Presi-
dent Ho Chi Mimi of North Wet
Nam was travelling in China, pos
sibly to a meeting with Mao Tse-
tung, Chinese Communist boss,
to discuss increased pressure
against Laos.
The State Department already
has implied that Red China was
aiding and abetting the attacks
on Laos and Laotian Foreign
Minister Panya announced that
if the situation got worse his
country might ask the United
Nations to intervene. Meanwhile,
the Soviet news agency Tass
doused oil on the fire by attack
ing Laos action against the tribes
men and warning that the fight
ing could spread beyond Laos,
"engulflng whole line of South
east Asian countries"

Heaviest layoffs thus far have
been among coal and iron miners,
railroad workers. truckers and
other transportation employees
who handle steel.
In Congress several Democrats
sounded renewed demands for
White House action to end the
strike. Senator Kefauver, of Ten
nessee, said the mid-September
visit of Soviet Premier Khrush-
chew to the United States makes
it imperative to settle the dispute
before that date. Senator Syming-
ton. of Missouri, introduced a
resolution calling on President
Eisenhower to summon industry
and union leaders to the White
House to try to effect a settlement.
Secretary of Labor Mitchell said
he did not expect the President
to use his power to halt the strike
through a Taft-Hartley injunc-
ton lin the forSeeable future"
The Presidents position has been
that his Taft-Hartley powers
should not be invoked until the
strike effects constitute national
emergency.

Congress-:
End in Sight

Whatever it's effect on interna-
tional relations, the September
visit of Nikita Khrushchev may
help prod Congress toward ad-
journment.
Senate Democratic Leader
johnson has let it be known
privately that he feels it would
be a mistake for Congress to be
in session when the Kremlin boss
arrives. The customary pre-
adjournment spate of political
haggling could give Mr.. Khru-
Shchev the wrong impression of
how Congress operates, he feels.
Before the seth Congress adj
journs for the year it must dis
pose of four major measures still
clogging the legislative calendar:
labor reform, civil rights, housing
and highway construction bill.
AS the House prepared to open
debate on labor reform, the task
of writing civil rights legislation
and a new housing bill also made
significant progress last week.

dreamers.
Under no circumstances" he
declared, would he accept the Vice
presidential nomination.
No candidate for the top spot
increases his chances by indicating
a willingness to accept the No. 2
position on the ticket, and the
vice presidential nomination has
often gone in the past to a man
who has declared he would not
accept it. But Gov. Rockefeller's
firm and uncompromising tone
convinced most of those who heard
his words that he was completely
serious.
He made the statement in San
Juan, Puerto Rico, where he was
the star of the 51st annual Gov
errors Conference.
During q week of Socializing
with his fellow Governors, Mr..
Rockefeller also let it be known
that he plans to decide by Novem-
Der l whether he will seek the
G. o. p. presidential nomination.
He will make his decision on the
basis of public opinion polls COM
pairing his strength with that Of
Mr.. Nixon.
Recent polls have shown Mr..
Nixon's popularity to be nearly
twice that of Mr.. Rockefeller. If
he holds this lead through the
fall the impression left by the
New York Governor in Puerto Rico
is that he would publicly withdraw
from the race.

detente which almost certainly
will accompany it, will open up
new possibilities for negotiation,
U. N. diplomats believe-will, as
the President put it, melt little
bit of the ice that seems to freeze
our relationships"
Without going overheard in this
direction, U. N. people feel that
friendly gestures build up kind
of momentum; that confidence
breeds confidence, and that as a
result, steps such as the opening
of the Soviet Union to adequate
inspection for the purpose of arms
control might well follow as a
natural consequence without even
seeming surprising.
Benefits to the West
A detente at this particular mo-
ment obviously benefits the West
vis-a-vis Berlin. The invitation to
Mr.. Khrushchev purchases for the
West at least temporary extern
sion of its lease on the Western
sector. The whole crisis may be
allowed to slip out of the public
eye and "wither away; or, in
order to promote still further the
detente he seeks, Mr.. KhruShchev
may choose an appropriate plat
form-such as the U. N. General
Assembly-to modify his stand
and thus ease the path for future
negotiations.
Had the Geneva conference of
foreign ministers been allowed to
end in deadlock without any
overriding distraction, there would
have been an extremely danger
GUS crisis, with most of the teeth
cal advantages in Mr.. Khru-
shchev's hands. The exchange of
visits has spared the West this
testing time, or at least postponed
it.
Add the very real probability
that a trip to the United States
will be educational to the Soviet
Premier, dissipating many of his
theological illusions; the likeli-
hood that President Eisenhower
will make an immense impression
on the Soviet Union; the fact that

Money Misuse Charged

In a separate report two days
later the committee accused Mr..
Hoffa of having used SO million
Of the Transfers money to pay
off gangster friends in Chicago.
The money, it said, was paid in
commissions and fees to the son
and daughter of Paul Dorfman,
who was described as the corrupt

The Dorfmans were brokers for

trayal of union members and their

in the 26-day-old steel strike.
After another angry exchange
of publicity broadsides on Mon
day, company and union bargain
erS settled down to a week of
serious and relatively amicable dis
cussions. The resumption of har-
monious talks brought a mid-week
statement from Joseph F. Finne-
gan, chief Federal mediator in the
dispute, that he was encouraged"
by the developments.
BY the end of the week, how
ever, there was no sign of any
progress toward settlement of the
major strike issues and Mr.. Fin
negan, this time showing no sign
of optimism, said he hadn't meant
to indicate the end of the strike
was in sight.

Mr.. Nixon has made it clear that

possibility of pairing the two top
Republicans would be with Mr..

AS an example of featherbedding
management cited the case of the
overhead crane men at Republic
Steel: Because of the intense heat,
they were given a relief man.
Later the cranes were air condi-
toned but the union Still insisted
on the relief man.
THE only trouble with that
story is that it isn't true" says
Mr.. Fischer. THE reason for the

the heat but the awkward crouch

Mr.. CapleS was asked for other
examples of wasteful work prac-

along with Mr.. Fischer's reactions:

Why Contract Still Stonds

Freeport's stand is that re-
negotiation is out Of the question
because it has borrowed S75 mil
lion from banks and $25 million
from four steel companies and
two auto companies on the basis
of the contract. Besides, the Gu
ban plant is now completed and
ready to go into production.
1t remains to be seen whether
Mr.. Brooks can generate enough
pressure on Capitol Hill to bring
about renegotiation of the con-
tract. 1t appears to be a little
late for that.
Mr.. Brooks not only feels it
was a mistake to sign the Free
port contract but believes also
that GSA did a poor job Of exc
cutting it. An urgent need for
nickel was given as the reason
for the contract. The GAO found
the nickel supply situation ap-

Il axe
before they got of their success
full Lunik shot last January.
The reason, or at least part of
1t, for the Pentagon's knowledge
of Soviet missile and space work
came to light late last week. The
Navy announced on Friday that
1t had successfully tested a new
type radar system capable of de-
tecting missile firings and above
ground nuclear explosions almost
instantaneously at any point in
the world.
Known as High Frequency
Back Scatter Radar," the Navy
system has since late 1857 de-
tected missile 11rings at Cape
Canaveral from great distances.
1t also detected the Project Argus
high-altitude atomic explosions
over the South Atlantic and the
Johnston Island nuclear tests.
Navy officials would only say mo
comment" when asked about the
detection of Soviet rocket shots
and atomic tests.
Put simply, the system involves
bouncing high frequency radio
signals off the hot exhaust gases
from rising missiles and off the
clouds created by exploding nu-
clear bombs.
While more experimental work
is needed before the system is to
become a defense fixture, it al
ready is being hailed as one of
the most important developments
to date in the early warning field.
1t promises to double the warning
time the United States will have
OF any incoming enemy ballistic
missiles. Fifteen minutes has
been the goal under the BalliStic
Missile Early Warning System
(BMEWS) still under develop
ment by the Air Force, a system
which uses brute-force radars as

A MAJOR ISSUE IN STRIKE
BY SAUL PETIT
Associated Press stan Writer

Z" NAeANNaeNNN .
NEW YORK.-Most years in
most industries, labor contract
fights follow q simple primitive
pattern:
The union asks for more money.
Management says no. And away
they go.
This year the steel industry.
which some think is the bell
wether of a stiffening manage
ment attitude to come in other
fields, brought to the contract
table a relative novelty: A de-
mand Of its own.
1t demanded an end to feather
bedding. to inefflciency, to inten-
tional loafing and the spreading
out Of work, to the practice Of
insisting that four men do the
work Of three.
Give us IS cents more an hour,
said the union.
End featherbedding and we'll
begin to talk money, said manage
ment in effect. A phony issue,
said the union.
And the strike Of 100000 steel
workers goes on.
How real is the issue Of feath-
EMBEDDING in steel? How extern
siye is the problem? What forms
does it take?
Problem coIIed Big One
While being coy about the use
Of the phrase-it prefers waste
full work practices" to feather
bedding-management insists the
problem is big. costly and severe
enough to limit its ability to COM
pete in foreign markets.
ITS difficult to tell you ex-
actly how big the problem is
because these wasteful practices
vary from plant to plant" says
William Caples, vice president in
charge of industrial relations for
Inland Steel and chairman Of an
industry wide committee studying
the problem.
But" adds Mr.. Caples, "there
is some of it in every plant. The
cost every year to the industry
as a whole is considerable. We
know the total cost but for pur-
poses of later negotiation we'd
rather not make it public now"
IF there is so much feather
bedding" says Ben Fischer, inter-
national representative of the
United Steelworkers Union, chow
do, they explain the fact that
since 1887, when steel was organ
lied. the industry has been able
to double its production while re-
ducing its work force?"
Relatively Smaller
Mr.. Caples agrees with the fact
and admits that the featherbed-
ding problem in steel is much
smaller than it is in railroading,
for example. But that" he in
sists, sis only because steel man.
agement has fought wasteful work
practices harder than other in
dustries while getting no Corpora
ton from the union"
ITS strictly a phony public re-

you might find some loaferS. But

Just what effect the Navy sys-
tenn, developed under the code
name Project Tepee, would have
on the BMEWS program and the
Air Forces futuristic Project
Midas, a satellite which would
detect missile firings by infra-red
devices, is not clear. But with the
rising costs of defense procure
ment, the simpler, less expensive

downward revision of the other

the union thinks the result is
overwork for the remaining en-
ployes, we file a grievance and the
arbitrator decides. Where the
reason for a particular work
practice or crew size no longer
exists, the arbitrator usually finds
the company is justified in remov-
ing that practice or reducing that
crew.
Caples-In one plant, employees
have been taking excessive time
for coffee breaks. This slows pro-
duction and costs, in a year, thou
sands of dollars. But somewhere
along the line it became a past
practice and management was
stuck with it.
FiScher-He happens to be re-
ferring to a very efficient mill,
but we never heard the coffee
break complaint before. Why have
they been hiding it?
Leoving Work EorIy
Caples-In another plant, en-
ployes have been leaving their jobs
10 minutes before quitting time
before getting properly relieved.
Again. perhaps it was manage
ment's fault originally but this is
inefficiency and waste and why
won't the union cooperate with us
IN trying to remove it?
Fischer-I don't know what
he's talking about. If any employee
walked out before his relief ar
rived, he'd be fired. Maybe he's
referring to the 10-minute wash
up time, Why shouldn't a steel
