AT&T, An Example
Automution Striking AT
Nution;s Basic Concepts

Joseph A. Beirne, president of th'
Communications Workers of America
writing in IUD DIGEST, quarterly
publication of the AFL-CIO on The
Job Revolution in Telephones says one
of the important ramifications Of
mechanization and automation in
American industry is the effect OF
these changes on the job structure
Beirne relates the effects primarily
to his telephone company workers and
their union organization, however, as
automation and mechanization move
relentlessly forward automation is 60
ing to strike at many basic concepts
in this country and we are going to
have to accept changes wrought by
our own genius.
Labor feels first the impact of prog
ress and will be in the forefront
working for the sociological changes
necessary to protect income and liv-
ing standards, human life and dignity.
In nutshell, it seems, the better
business prospers the greater the
mechanization and automation and
in turn the greater are job displace-
ments if business does not continue
on what Bierne terms fabulous"
or tremendous" scales. Mere Sub
stantial increases in business are
not sufficient to maintain work
forces with automation established.
The article by the CWI president
points out:
''The shifts in job composition, for
the most part, have been accompanied
by overall increases in each and every
job classification lin the telephone
industry including the telephone op-
orator. At least this was the case as
long as telephone business increased
by fabulous proportions.
During 1866 automation hearings
before the Joint Committee on the
Economic Report of the 84th Con-
gress, | made some statements which
have since become prophetic. To quote
from that testimony:
"There are, however, some very i'm
portant lessons which we can learn
from history and which should serve
as the basis for planning the future
:. 1t appears that telephone employ
ment can be maintained during in
creasing mechanization periods only
by tremendous increases in telephone
business. We think it unlikely that the

of one per cent in interest. He opened
an envelope and I touched one of the

Casey must have become aware of
my larcenous intentions and said that
very little cash is kept in the office.
One corner of the vault has safe
where the Industrial Accident Board
keeps its loot. Nobody touches it but
them.
Casey said to come back and look
at the mess of warrants he would have
back from the banks about II 80.
What started me on this high
finance foray was a release from
Controller Bill Koch that the two
million in-the-red figure written
above meant something. In July
1858 the figure was $3,O27, ,O99.23.
The legislative experts had fore
cast that it would be around three
and a half million about now.
This would appear that things are
looking up for the State, however
some large depletions are due again
to the state public school equaliza-
ton fund. $8,094,469 the first year
and $8,955,554 for fiscal 1860.
But the appropriations are not the
concern of the Treasurer's office.
They just have red and black numbers
for reading material. I was reading
along with them pretty good until
they pulled out the account sheet
where the black numbers are what is
owed and the red are credits
There is a theory which contends
that the Controller should have differ
ent balances than the Auditor since
his operation is the control before the
claims hit the Board of Examiners.
But as the moneyn.en operate now
the Auditor and Controller through
the Examiners act much like your
own check book, your figures better
be pretty right. The bank balance
sheet will not show the checks or war
rants issued, only the ones cashed.

kind of increases which have taker
place in the last decade can continue
into the future. For this reason, we
think we are faced in the telephone
industry with constantly decreasing
job opportunities
SIN the four years since that testi-
mony, our forecasts have come true.
During the postwar period, telephone
industry employment steadily in
creased except for the years 1953-54,
1947-48, and 1957-58. Interestingly
enough, in each of these years of ex-
ception, the number of telephones in
creased by several million annually
and the number of telephone CONVEX
sations also increased appreciably.
The increase, however, was substan-
tial rather than tremendous. In the
face of mechanization and automa-
ton, it takes tremendous increases in
telephone business, rather than sub
stantial ones, to maintain employment
levels.
'For example, between 1857 and
1858, the number of Bell telephones
in the United States increased 2.5
million to new all time record high
of 54.7 million. During the same
period, there was an increase of A
per cent in local telephone calls and
5.3 per cent in long distance calls.
Even in the face of this increased
business, the Bell System was able
to provide the additional service
with an 8.5 per cent reduction in
the labor force. At the end of 1858,
employment totaled 724,921 in the
Bell System as a whole or 67,713
below year-end 1857 figures. This
was in the face of substantial in
crease in telephone business. Need
less to say, with a decrease in teIe-
phone business, employment reduc-
tions would be catastrophe in terms
of the telephone workers job secur-
ity.
"Back in 1866, and for that matter
n many years previous, we recon-
nended-and these recommendation |
ire equally applicable today-that in
lustry should be thinking in terms of |
job spreading procedures

eve have suggested, among other
hings, a reduced workweek, longer
'acation periods, inter-departmental
nd inter-company transfers including
ayment of transfer expenses. This
incidentally, is extremely
in view of the shifting ma
ure of jobs in the industry. While one
ob may become obsolete, and in fact
e dead-end job in terms of career
ervice, there may be other jobs open
lg up in other departments or other
'cations. 1t seems only logical that
le telephone worker be given the op-
ortunity, with company-paid train !
lg and transfers, to meet the chal-
nges of the new jobs. We have also

"The Federal Disaster Relief Man
uaI', compiled for the Senate Gov
ernment Operations Committee, will
soon be received by key officials and
other citizens in Montana. Extra
copies of this document, just off the
press, were printed at the request of
Senators Muarray and Mansfield, so
Montanans can see what kind of aid is
available under various programs, and
how to obtain it quickly.
In this connection it may be well to
recapitulate the highlights of Wash
ington developments in connection
with the Montana earthquake.
The big shake came on a Monday
night, August II. Early Tuesday
morning Senator Mansfield called
Montana's Governor, to offer the full
assistance of the Montana congress
sional delegation. Unable to reach
the Governor. Senator Mansfield then.
called the AP bureau chief in Helena
and asked him to pass the offer of all
possible assistance on to the Gov.
ernor. Later that same Tuesday morn
ing members of Senator Murray's
staff called the state director of civil
ian defense, repeated the offer on
behalf of the delegation, and received
from him full account of the earth
quake damage and resultant problems
as then visualized.

MURRAY ARRANGED
INSPECTION

On Thursday Senator Murray, ex
ercising his prerogative as a commit
tee chairman, asked the Defense De-
partment to make a plane available
for an on-site inspection by members
of Congress and key officials of the
Army Corps of Engineers, Forest
Service, National Park Service and
Fish and Wildlife Service. The re-
quest was Immediately granted. Rep
resentative Metcalf called the Gov
ernor to correlate schedules. The
party of 21 inspected the area Satur-
day afternoon and Sunday morning,
and attended briefing by state and
federal officials at West Yellowstone
Saturday night, at which the Gov
ernor pleaded for federal aid.
The Washington group, which in
cluded Senator Frank Moss of Utah
and Congressman Metcalf and Ander-
son, assured him prompt action. The
group returned to Washington Mon
day morning and later that same
morning this bipartisan group of mem
bers of Congress wired the Governor
urging him to request Immediately
that the President declare the af-
fected section disaster area, thus
to put into operation several types of
important federal assistance pro-
grams. The bipartisan group also
wired the President and the director
of Federal Civil Defense urging their
immediate, favorable consideration of
such a request from the Governor of
Montana.
AS of this writing, for undeter-
mined reasons, the request has not
been made. The reasons why the
Washington delegation suggested
prompt request of disaster designs-
tion were made available to the
Governor and the wire services, and
are as follows:
If a disaster proclamation is re-
quested and granted, the Presidents
emergency fund under Public Law

will be available to restore Forest
