Cancellation and Integrity
Mr.. Goldberg's role in the
merger of AFL and CIO dem
onstrated his talent for con-
ciliation and testified to his
integrity.
Many merger attempts had
failed. but George Meany of
the AFL and Walter Reuther
Of the CIO kept trying. Mr..
Goldberg. among others, seized
on the will to merge and found
the way. He helped to strip
the seemingly irreconcilable
conflicts down to bare essen
tials. and evolved ingenious
formulas to settle disputes over
raiding, structure, policy-even
the name Of the new organiza-
ton.
The merger did not solve
many basic disputes finally. but
the patchwork let the AFL and
CIO live together and estab-
lished a framework Of struc-
lures and procedures that make
gradual solutions possible. Mr..
Goldberg's faith in the utility
of sound structures and pro-
cedures to solve tough problems
will be reflected in his labor

His associates sometimes de-
scribe him as q "pragmatic
egghead," a man who can
translate complex theories into
understandable terms, and can
organize a mass Of facts into
broad concepts.
No. / Problem: Jobs
Despite Mr.. Goldberg's recent
affluence, a union colleague
comments, Arthur will never
forget the smell Of the slums;
his humanitarianism com e s
from firsthand knowledge.
Partly because Of humani-
tarianism but mostly because of
his economic philosophy, Mr..
Goldberg sees unemployment as
his No. / problem. He helped
draft organized labor's anti
recession program, which calls
for expansion of public works,
aid to depressed areas, liberal
ization Of unemployment COM
pensation and other pump
priming actions by the Federal
Government.
While emergency measures
are needed, Mr.. Goldberg en-
phasizes they are mo substi-
tute for work" To provide
steadily increasing job oppor-
tunities. he advocates the IA
miliar pattern Of Government
programs designed to accelerate
economic growth.
Arthur recognizes that busi-
ness has got to make money OF
else there won't be any pie
to cut up." an observer outside
the labor movement remarks
Another nonunion source ex-
presses confidence that Gold
berg is so intelligent he's bound
to understand the problem OF
keeping labor costs down so
the United States can COM
Ipete."
Mr.. Goldberg repulsed steel
management's demand in 1853
for q freer hand to change
wasteful work rules. but he
insists that labor must ac-
cept and even stimulate au-
tomation-the use Of labor
saving machines and tech
niques.
While labor should encourage
automation, he asserts, meth
DDS must be devised to make
sure that the tremendous bene-
fits do not result in tremen-
dous human burdens" He OBJ
serves that unions harbor "very
understandable fears" that
hasty and ill-planned automa-
tion will cause widespread un-
employment.
He intends to accord a high
priority to Labor Department
research on retraining displaced
workers and on other devices
for cushioning the blow of au-
tomation.

According to some accounts,
steel management felt that Mr..
Goldberg had outbargained in
dustry's negotiating team in
1856, and so kept its guard up
throughout the 1859 negotia-
tions. Every time Arthur put
a bird up." one source recalls,
management shot it down,
whether it was good or bad.
They were saying. Let's look for
the fish bones in that ice
cream.
Despite his Illustrations, Mr..
Goldberg kept looking for a
lever to crack the stalemate.
He always has had a seemingly
bottomless cache of ideas. In
1859, one of his strategic ideas
was to bring Government in
fluence to bear on the steel
negotiations.
He is against compulsory
arbitration and other methods
Of forcing settlements on labor
and management, but he does
maintain that the Government
should be helpful" by mediat-
ing and proposing solutions.
The steel strike, he believes,
would have been shortened II
Vice President Nixon and Labor
Secretary James Mitchell had
intervened sooner. and II the
Government had drawn con:
clusions publicly from the mass
OF facts and figures it compiled.
In major labor disputes Of
the future, Mr.. Goldberg al
most certainly will exert his
influence and call on that OF
the President to point the way
toward settlements-and will
count on public opinion to put
the pressure on negotiators for
voluntary agreements.
The settlements he advocates
will be favored by his basic
economic theory: High wages
increase purchasing power,
raise the standard Of living,
fuel a vigorous economy and
thus benefit the Nation.
Son Of Immigrants
These pro-labor views are the
natural consequence Of Mr..
Goldberg's hard-times back.
ground. He was born in Chi
cago SO years ago, one Of eight
children of immigrants who
fled Czarist Russia. His father,
who died when Arthur was 8
years old, drove q horse and
wagon delivering produce.
Arthur started working at
IL and had a job every day
from then until January 3,
1861. when he resigned from
his law firms to concentrate on
planning his administration of
the Labor Department.
He held all sorts Of Jobs,
from laborer to law clerk, but
his only union card was issued
by the Hod Carriers when he
worked on construction gangs.
Economic pressures pushed
him into taking two full under
graduate courses simultaneous
ly at two different colleges in
Chicago, so that he entered
law school at 18. He won his
law degree summa cum laude
at Northwestern University,
graduating first in his class,
shortly before he was 81.
| A sympathetic Chicago judge
waived the rules to let him take
the bar examination a month
before his 21st birthday. He
worked a few years for a law
firm specializing in foreclosins
mortgages. tired of that grim
career, and opened his own law
office.
Associated With Stevenson
He started representing labor
unions about 1887, early in the
era Of labor's growth under the
New Deal. He was active in
civic affairs, including associa.
