Rubber Union
Gets Pay Rise

CLEVELAND. Sept. Q tAP).-
The $4,000 production workers
OF the rubber industry's big
four producers will receive 10
cents an hour more under new
agreements reached between the
companies and the United Rub
Der Workers.
Unlike the pickering involved
in costly strikes last spring,
both sides agreed to terms in
unusually quick fashion this
time.
Goodyear Tire g. Rubber Co.
SET the pattern last night,
agreeing to the 0-cent hourly
wage increase after two weeks
of bargaining with the union.
The United States Rubber Co.,
meeting with the union in Gin
cinnati, granted the same In
crease yesterday. Within hours,
B. F. Goodrich Co. and Fire
stone Tire g. Rubber Co. an
nounced similar agreements.
Goodrich. meeting in Canton,
Ohio. and Firestone, which met
here. negotiated with the union
just one day.
The wage pacts, effective i'm
mediately. must be ratified by
locals.
Increases were bargaine d
under q wage reopening clause
In three-year master contracts
signed last spring. The union
has the right to reopen negotia-
tons on wages at any time on
SO days notice. However, a
union spokesman said it is ira
dition that wages remain in ef-
feet for at least a year.
Agreement on the master con-
tracts came only after the big
geSt strike in the history of the
rubber workers - the walkout
lasted two months at Firestone.
Goodyear was the only one of
the big four which did not ex-
perience a strike.
Average hourly wages, before
the new wage agreements, were
s2.7l at Firestone. $3.50 at
Goodrich. $2.61 at Goodyear
and $2.48 at United States
Rubber.

Cancer Society study indicates,
The smoking behavior Of high

also showed:
In families where one or both
parents have quit smoking. the
percentage Of high school stu

families where parents con-

There is a higher percent

The one-year survey began
in May. 1858. One aim of the

their attitudes on smoking.

Jews in the USSR

At the National Press Club the other
day Premier Khrushchev denied, in eff
feet, that the Kremlin discriminates in
any way against the 3 million Jews
of the USSR. In the Western world,
however, leading coreligionists Of these
people have long had in their hands
abundant documentary evidence show
ing that Soviet policy has had large
measure of domestic anti-Semitism in
it ever since the late 1940s.
This policy, according to the evil
dence, has consisted of numerous re-
strictions debarring Russia's Jews from
many facilities and activities, including
particularly activities involving their
culture and faith. Perhaps Mr.. Khru-
shchev's statement on the subject pre-
sages an end to such discrimination.
That is the hope, at any rate, Of world
Jewry, and it is hope shared by all peo-
Piles who believe in religious freedom.

Why Stall 1t Off?

Virginia's Governor Almond, faced
with a whopping total of budget esti-
mates for the next biennium, reluc-
family is bordering proposals for a State
sales tax. He has refused, however, to
commit himself on the politically touchy
sales tax issue, pending further study
of the $482 million in departmental
requests received by the State budget
office. This record sum, incidentally,
is for maintenance and operation Of
facilities and services only-it does not
include any funds for capital improve
mentS. Why the Governor should hest
tate to call for sales tax in the face
of the revenue shortage posed by the
estimates is hard to understand. For a
sales tax is inevitable In Virginia.
The $482 million asked by State
departments, agencies and institutions
represents an increase Of SIP million
over appropriations for the current two
year period. The total of the estimates
undoubtedly will be sliced down by
the budget parerS. But there is not a
great deal of slashing that can be done
to budget composed solely Of items
for maintaining current levels Of serv-
ice. Yet to come are the requests for
new public works. Somehow additional

revenue must be obtained to meet the
minimum maintenance and operational
needs, to say nothing of capital improve
mentS.
In the past Governor Almond has
said that he will ask for sales tax
when the need for one is apparent. II
the estimates Of administrative require
ments for the next fiscal period are rea-
sonably reliable-as they generally are
the time has come in Virginia to forget
politics and face the fact that sales
tax offers the best-and most painless
method Of solving the fiscal crisis.

Juvenile Court Overflow

Testifying last July on the need for
more Juvenile Court judges, Juvenile
Court Judge Orm w. Ketcham said that
as of June 80, last, he had waived 1O3
cases involving 308 felonies to District
Court in the past year; there remained
a backlog of 235 juvenile cases in his
court and some $40 adult cases awaiting
hearing.
Last week one of the waived cases
came before Judge Youngdahl, in Dis
trict Court. After preliminary inveSti-
CATION, Judge Youngdahl invoked a Sec
ton of the juvenile court law under
which he transformed his criminal court
into juvenile court. He dealt with the
young offender in accordance with the
principle of juvenile court proceedings
and prescribed measures he thought ap-
plicable in the circumstances.
Judge Ketcham might have done
the same thing. But there is disgrace
full congestion in his court, which lacks
the manpower to keep up with the de-
mandS. There is an interval Of as much
as six months between juveniles arrest
and hearing. Judge Ketcham has de-
cided on a deliberate policy Of waving
cases to the criminal courts, when the
circumstances of the offense justify it.
And it is only question of time before
this overflow from Juvenile Court really
hits the judges of District Court. Judge
Ketcham is overburdened now to an
extent that even the waived cases bring
him slight relief, and the waived cases
alone may require the addition Of an
other District Court Judge.

Make 1t Easier to Give

With Federal departments and
agencies assigned the task Of raising
nearly half of the United Givers Fund
goal for 1859, the special study Of a
payroll deduction plan for collecting
donations from Government employees
is most timely. The voluntary withhold
ing plan has proved boon both to
workers and the UGF in private indus
try. Why not use the same system
throughout the Federal establishment?
There has been objection to the
plan in the past from Federal ofacials
concerned with payroll operations. I'm
doubtedly 1t would mean extra work and
perhaps some extra expense for the
Government, Just as it has meant extra
work and extra expense for business
firms. But the results are so impressive
that the additional bother and cost
would be JUSTIFIED.
The study is being made by the
Presidents Committee on Fund Raising
Within the Federal Service in response
to a resolution adopted at conference
of Federal officials called to discuss
Embarrassing difflcultieS in the Govern
ment departments. The resolution was
approved Overwhelmingly despite an ex-
ecutive order requiring Federal of1cials
to see that "the record-keeping relating
to and the administration of fund-rais-
ing programs" are held to minimum"
1t was pointed out at the conference
that without the availability Of pay
roll-deduction plan Federal employees are
at a disadvantage in trying to match
the donations of private employees en-
rolled in the plan. The Presidents COM
mittee is right, therefore, in exploring
the possibilities of such a program in
the Federal establishment, and a way
will be found to set one up.
