Mitchell Is Confident
OfAverting Rail Strike

objective Of a forward, vigorous
union movement will not be
achieved by seeing in a status
quo the answer to every chal-
lenge Of change"
Mr.. Mitchell and Vice Presi-
dent Nixon last January con-
vinced steel labor and manage
ment that their dispute over
work rules should be submitted
to study committees.
While in Iowa City, Mr.
Mitchell held the latest in a
series of discussions with rail
union leaders. He also has met
recently with key men in rail
management. He intends to
keep in close touch with the
situation.
Arbiters now are weighing
arguments on wages and fringe
benefits in the dispute between
the railroads and the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers
The arbitration award may set
a pattern for wages and fringe
benefits for the four other
operating" unions and the IL
incorporating" unions.
Negotiations on work rules
have not yet reached the ma
tional level-at least not for
mally. The issue of work rules
involves only the five "operat-
ing" unions, not the II mon
operating" unions.
President May Get Plea
The Associated Press re-
ports, meanwhile, that Presi-
dent Eisenhower may be asked
this week by the National Me-
diation Board to use his emerg-
ency powers under the Railway
Labor Act to forestall a strike
by incorporating" employees
over wages.
Unless Mr.. Eisenhower acts,
$4,000 railroad workers have
the legal right to strike on May
5. The workers, represented by
II unions, have asked for a
wage boost and other benefits
The railroads, however, have
proposed a wage cut, and, le-
gally, they could put that into
effect on May S unless Mr..
Eisenhower acts to name an
emergency board. 1t would
listen to the arguments of both
sides and recommend a solu-
ton.
Appointment of such a board
would put of a strike or a
wage-cut for at least so days.
Under the Railway Labor
Act, the board would have 80
days for hearings and making
recommendations. Then, the
act provides 80 days for nego-
tiations on the recommends
tions. During this period
neither the unions nor the rail-
roads may make a public move.
The workers. in the dispute
are the incorporating en-
ployes - those who maintain
and service the trains. They
now average $240 an hour.
Their unions ask an increase
of Is cents an hour. plus better
vacation, holiday and welfare
provisions.
The railroads have proposed
a wage cut Of Is cents an hour.

on the wounds or to remove

parts and can do no further
damage. They can be removed

Management publicly has in

not indicated any willingness
to put of a final solution by re-

Both sides apparently have
taken a softer line in their
private talks with Mr.. Mitchell
than in their public attacks on
each other.
The Secretary has not said
specifically that he has received
assurances of agreement or

has told associates both sides
are receptive to the idea and

after continuing their public

duck factories were highly con-
centrated.
Water in Saskatchewan is up
167 per cent and pot holes that
were dry in 1859, contained water
and ducks. There is still one

Fishing Without
License High On
Arrest Record

Too many fishermen still think
they can get by without a license,
according to Orville Lewis, law
enforcement chief of the Montana
Fish and Game Department. Dur
ing May and June, 85 persons
were apprehended for attractions
of fishing laws. Many did not have
the proper license. A license is
required for all persons who fish
except children under Is and per-
sons 20 and over who are legal
state residents.
Also high on the arrest records
are anglers who take over the
legal limit of fish. Lewis advised
all fishermen to check the fishing
regulations as to daily limits and
possession limits on state water.
A number of arrests also have
been made for noncompliance
with Montana's boating and water
safety laws. Sixty persons were
cited during the last two months
for not having the proper num-
Der of life p~reServerS in their boats
failing to comply with the fire
extinguisher section of the boating
laws or not having boats properly
licensed.
Lewis report also showed mis-
cellaneous arrests made for shoot
ing big game, trapping out OF
season and using firearms in a
game preserve.
The Sidney herald., 1960-07-13

Other facts noted in the recent
report showed there was a $40
increase Of resident anglers in the
eleven western states and an in
crease of 1870 of non-reSidentS
anglers.
Listigs of fishing license holders
derived from state statistics ON
sales of fishing licenses, have been
issued annually by the u. S. Fish
and Wildlife Service since 1882.
During the decade recently closed,
resident fishing license holders
increased in numbers about 300.
In the 49 states there were TO-
1872 O2 licensed fishermen for the
period of July 1, 1858 to June
80, 1859. Pal dfiShing license
holders in the Treasure State for
this period totalled 2S2,731. Total
license sales amounted to $4933,-
1880.
In general the ranks of anglers
continued to swell through 1883
1859 except in the north central
states. In any event, according to
the report, a gradual long-term up
ward trend in angling participa-
ton is evident since mid-1949.

Montana High On
List For Rehab
Of Trout lakes

Montana is listed as one of the
five most active states in the rec
lamation of trout lakes, according
to national statistics recently COM
piled and reported by the Sport
Fishing Institute in Washington,
d. c. The report covered the
period 1857 through 1859. Montana
was listed as having rehabilitated
1882 acres of trout lakes during
this period.
Major projects included Ackley
Lake-Judith River in Judith Basin
county; Deadmans' Basin in
Wheatland county, Upper Clear
water drainage in MiSSoula coun-
ty, COOney reservoir in Carbon
county and the Tongue River res
ervOir in Big Horn county. Nu-
merOuS smaller lakes also were
rehabilitated.
Other states in this category
were Idaho, Washington, Utah and
Oregon. One of the outstanding
dividends of research has been
the development of several chemi-
cal compounds now in use to Grad
icate undesirable fish and permit
starting over. Both the chemicals
employed and the techniqueS for
treating unbalanced" fishing
waters have been improved since
1856 rehabilitation is one of the
most effective means of improv-
ing fishing and 48 states have
reported that they use chemical
treatment to restore good fishing
to unbalanced waters.
