Labor:
Rail Trouble

At 1901 a m. on Thursday the
vast Pennsylvania Railroad line
was closed down by strike, its
first in ia years.
For more than three years the
Pennsylvania, the country's larg-
est railroad-10.000 miles in l3
States-has been fighting one OF
the most ticklish labor situations
in recent history.
Involved are two unions: Trans
port Workers Union, representing
$4,000 car cleaners. oilers, me-
chanics, repairmen and other nom
operating employees in the 46 To-
Gals of the Pennsylvania System
Railroad Division, and System
Federation 152, representing 5000
sheetmetal workers, blacksmithS
and mechanics of the Interna-
tional Association of Machinists,
Sheet Metal Workers Union and
Blacksmiths Union.
The issues involved are not
wages or hours, but more nebulous
ones. In the beginning there were
27 of them. Agreement was
reached on seven. That left 20
and of these only the following
remained last week:
. A demand by System Federation
that it perform all work on steam
and water pipes and airlines.
o A TWU demand that would de-
fine job classifications and prevent
the assignment of the same men
to different kinds of jobs, a ban
on the roads letting contracts to
outside concerns for maintenance
and construction work and other
changes in company rules.
Every provision of the Railroad
Labor Act designed to head of
a strike was called into play. The
National Mediation Board ap-
pointed third party" labor law
yer to make a report. President
Eisenhower appointed an emer-
gency fact-finding board. -Four
times a strike call was issued.
Then on Thursday the 10000
maintenance workers in the two
unions walked off the job.
At the one minute past mid
night hour the lines 722 passenger
trains and its 870 freight trains
came to halt. The freight serv-
ices had been moving lib million
tons day.
The effect on the economy Of
the Pennsylvania l3-State area
from New York westward to st.
LouiS-was an unknown quantity.
Buses and trucks were absorbing a
great part of the passenger and
freight loads but only time would
tell how much genuine inconven-
fence and real economic loss
would be entailed.
The railroad has said it had
already made concessions which
would cost 81 million year. II 1t
it made more it would cost UP to
So million a year, it said. And
furthermore, giving in would yield
managerial rights" which it
couldn't afford to yield.
There the matter stood with
both sides pessimistic over even
the resumption Of negotiations.

of our nuclear retaliatory systems
be at sea, but the relative surviva-
bility of sea-based systems is sos
high that a substantial portion
should be-" the Navy spokesman
asserted.
"They could well be the deter
mining deterrent factor that we
seek. They would most likely pro-
vide the major portion of those
residual nuclear delivery forces
that we would have remaining
after the initial exchange"
In his statement to the House
committee, Gen White also at
tackled the city-destruction theory
which the Navy says is an Air
Force "strawman"-with this hy-
pothetical situation:
Suppose we concentrated on
development of forces with a spe-
cific eapability for city destruc-
ton instead of forces designed to
destroy enemy nuclear delivery
power. Then suppose the enemy
decided to attack one of our allies
to whom we have basic security
obligations.
"Under these circumstances, we
would be forced to recognize that
our decision to support the ally
under attack could mean direct
attack on our country by unirn-
paired Soviet striking power"
These two questions arise:
/. Does the General believe the
Russians would open the door for
us to strike the first all-out nu-
clear blow?
They would be issuing the in
Vitation if they attacked one OF
our allies and did not hit us
simultaneously. Only an exceed
ingly weak President would lack
the courage to remain loyal to
our solemn obligations to our
allies.
2. We already have forces that
can destroy Soviet military tar
gets-ICBMs, IRBMs, SAC bomb
ers, Navy carrier planes. sea and
land-based airbreathing missiles
and tactical aviation. Wouldn't
they be able to impair" Russian
striking power?
Both the Navy and the Air
Force subscribe to the policy Of
a mix" of strategic weapons. The
question is: whose weapons
should have what share of the
mix? The Air Force wants a
concentration of long-range mis-
siles in what many observers have
called a Fortress America" The
Navy wants more of our strength
at sea and warns of relying on
a deeper underground edition OF
the Maginot Line. featuring i'm
mobile missiles, as our defense
key for the 1960s.

TheCompoign:
.nE arrest

Both the Democratic and Re-
publican presidential nominees
spent an active week with cam
paign plans despite Vice PreSi-
dent NixOn's enforced stay in
Walter Reed Hospital and Sem
ator Kennedy's duties on the
Senate floor.
The tradition that presidential
campaigns begin in earnest after
Labor Day received only lip service
this year.
In its way, the congressional ses-
sion was a bit of campaigning and
in a lot of other ways, the candi-
dates and their supporters decided
not to wait.
Senator Kennedy, the Demo-
cratic nominee, decided. for in
stance, that blame for failure of
the session to pass major social
legislation was too good to pass
up. He laid responsibility squarely
at the door Of President Eisen-
hover and the Republicans.
In a speech to the New York
American Federation of Labor and
Congress of Industrial Organiza-
tions, he said: 1--WE have just be-
gun to fight. I think that this
country can begin to move If we
get President who will give lead
ership in this field, who will not
threaten us with a big veto on
every single piece Of progressive
legislation :" Everywhere he
turned, said he, 1--WE ran into Re-
publican opposition.
He followed up his idea that
things could be better by an
nouncing later appointment of a
committee to prepare a compre-
hensive civil rights bill embodying
Democratic platform commit
ments. The members are two
congressional stalwarts in the
rights fights fields of recent years,

and Representative Celler of New

plicated by troubled relations with
neighboring Cambodia and an ap-
parent shift to "neutralism" in
Laos, the economic problem
brought by nine years of war. the.
social problem Of uprooting peas
ants from their own villages and
their own land and "persuading"
them to move to the "aggrovilles."
To go back bit:
War ravaged o-China from
1945 to 1854. It ended shortly
after the Communists crushed the
French stronghold at Dien Bien
Phu. In the Geneva agreements
of 1854, the country was vivisected
at the 18th parallel in Communist
North Wet Nam and anti-Com-
munist South Wet Nam. Cam
bodia and Laos became independ-
ent states.
The Mojor Points
In interviews President Diem
emphasizes four major points:
!. He says that whole provinces
Of Wet Nam were controlled by
the Communists during the nine
year period. They had the OPP
portunity to organize the peasants
and to set up their apparatus.
Neither in Malaga nor in Korea
both scenes Of savage war with
the Reds-waS this true to the
same degree.
2. After the division Of the
country, as they pulled out to the
north, the Communists left hidden
caches Of arms and ammunition,
and trained officers disguised as
peasants to continue the guerrilla
warfare.
3. With keen foresight they also
scooped up thousands of young
men and took them to North Wet
Nam. There are thousands of split
families in the country today
hostages used to force the peasants
in the South to help the Wet
Cong.
4. Physical damage was enor-
nous in battered cities. shattered
bridges, lacerated roads and raw
aged plantations. An American
observer says today: 1--WE were
amazed that the country was alive
at ALL" He says that the re-
covery was often called "the
miracle of Wet Nam"
5. Some 100000 of refugees
poured southwark, escaping the
Communist regime in the north.
They had to be resettled, fed and
given employment.
American dollars poured in. too,
along with military instructors
and technicians Of many kinds.
South Wet Nam has been, and still
