DOckers Begin
Return 10 Jobs
Only Two Locals
Still Holding Out

NEW YORK. Jan. 26 (AP)
Some $4,000 longshoremen
from Maine to Texas began re-
turning to their jobs today,
ending the longest and cost
liest dock strike in Atlantic
maritime history.
Their leaders had received
a report that President Ken
nedy was fed up" with local
quibbling that threatened 10
prolong the walkout, which had
lasted "a days.
But there were at least two
areas along the coastline
where longshoremen refused to
go along with their unions or
der to return to work. Both
cases involved local disputes.
In one, 1000 longshoremen
at Mobile, Ala, want a con-
tract clause whereby they
would be paid a set amount in
case it rains and work is
stopped. A union spokesman
said ship owners rejected a
longshoremen proposal to re-
turn to work while a presiden-
tial board studies and nepoti-
ates the rain clause.
The other holdout area was
at Norfolk, Va.
WarehOusemen Involved
A dispute brewed there be-
tween warehousemen members
OF the AFL-CIO International
Longshoremen's Association and
terminal operators.
David Aston, an ILA inter-
national vice president, was re-
ported as saying his Norfolk
dockworkers would remain on
strike to back up the ware
housemen in the local dis
agreement.
Another holdout area fell in
line, however, when Texas
longshoremen agreed last night
to put aside a local contract
issue over size of work gangs
and return to the docks to-
morrow.
They acceded several hours
after President Kennedy's as
sistant secretary of labor James
j. Reynolds told a Galveston
meeting of Texas longshoremen
and shippers:
"The President has tried to
keep his hands off this thing
as long as he could. Now he's
pretty fed up"
Mr.. Reynolds then stalked
out OF the meeting.
Action Quickly Follows
A few hours later, lila presi-
dent William v. Bradley, who
was in Texas trying to
straighten out the situation
there, gave the order for a
complete return TO work on the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Capt.
Bradley said local issues would
be negotiated later.
The union had held at the
start Of the strike, December
%, that the walkout would
continue until all local issues
were settled.
lila negotiators last Sunday
accepted a master contract COW
ering dockworkers from Maine
to Virginia. This usually sets
the contract pattern for South

award be held up pending an
inquiry.
This was reported today as
two Senate subcommittee
pressed an investigation into
the award which has engen-
dered growing controversy.
The contract for the fighter
type aircraft for use both by
the Air Force and Navy is ex-
pected eventually to total about
SOS billion.
1t was awarded to General
Dynamics Corp. and the Cru
man Co. after civilian defense
officials overruled recommen-
dationS of at least two military
evaluation boards favoring the
Boeing Aircraft Co. of Seattle.

use its faciliaes at Fort Worth,

est aircraft program of this
kind since World War II. Boe-
ing had planned to use its

Investigations Subcommittee.
made his request, it was
learned, in a letter to Defense
Secretary Mcnamara on De-
cember 81 following the De-
fense Departments November
"a announcement of the award.
You are strongly urged to
withdraw this commitment and
withhold any further action on
this contract until the subcom-
mittee has had time and OPP
portunity to consider informa-
ton now available to it and to
decide whether a full-scale
inquiry and public hearings are
required" the Mcclellan letter
said.
The substance of the Sena-
tors letter, it was learned, was
telephoned to Secretary Nc
Namara's office around noon
on the day it was written. The
letter itself, it was understood,
arrived there about 2 pm. and
the contract signing, already
scheduled, was carried out
about 2:30 pm.
The Pentagon had no imme-
diate comment pending a check
of the time of the actual con-
tract signing.
In his letter, Senator Nc
Clellan noted that the sub
committee already had under
taken a preliminary investiga-
tion into the matter and added:
"On the basis of information
thus far developed, the facts
warrant consideration by the
subcommittee with the view of

Mr.. Kennedy was reported to
have told Mr.. Knappstein that
the United States expects West
Germany to avoid entering into
an exclusive arrangement with
France within the North At
lantic Alliance at the expense
of broader European unifica-

Presidents Reminder
According to reports circulat-
ing among diplomats here, the
President reminded the Ger
man Ambassador that the
United States had turned down,
several years ago, French sug-
gestions for a United States
British-French directorate of
western Alliance.
He repeatedly said that, in
taking that action, the United
States had avoided forming a
special association within the
alliance which would have been
contrary to West Germany's
interests.
Diplomatic officials said Mr..
Adenauer's report to the Pres
ident was a normal procedure
growing out of close personal
relationships among the lead
ers Of the Western alliance.
Adenauer Yields
They said the President. for
example, had kept Mr.. Ade-

sions with British Prime Min
lister Macmillan at the Nassau
conference last month.

Cheney mentioned that in
yesterdays game he had sew

going to his mouth with his

EDITORIAL
MORE ON THE SPOILS SYSTEM
AS WAS introduced in these columns earlier, the spois
system, while perfectly appropriate in some parts, does not
necessarily suit these Islands, if carried out to its extreme.
THESE ISLANDS, because of their small size, and
limited population, may not be able to follow through the
spoils system, all the way. Another point to be considered
is the skill and ability of citizens which may be pressed into
government service. Unfortunate as it may seem, we do not
have an endless supply OF highly trained and fully skilled
citizens from which the Government may select freely and
at will. What does it all mean? 1t means that if we dispace
certain officials because they do not happen belong
to the right party, then we may not be able to replace
them with equally skilled persons, and the Government, and
the public in general will suffer.
BUT ANY DISCUSSION of the spoils system must of
necessity include a true and proper meaning of the term. 1t
came about because Of the need to reward those who had
worked. 1t also gave the victors an opportunity to select the
type of team which would make the operation of the govern
ment free and effective. It would be tragic, indeed, if a Pre-
Sident could not pick his team, and had to be Saddled with
those who were his political enemies just a few hours before
the election results became known.
A Presidents team, or any party's team, for that
matter, goes beyond the immediate cabinet 1t includes all
who are appointed, in whatever capacity. Of course, the
trickIe-down system also comes into play here, for the po-
ltlcal system as is known on the mainland, leads all the way
down from the President to the ward or neighborhood leader,
each having power to help bring his system into play. And
SO we find influence moving in all directions. A street sweep
e, for example, may have to belong to the right party, or he
may not get the job.
sPoILS system is a fine thing, but it needs to be
carried out in accordance with local needs, circumstances, and
conditions. A citizen should be able to feel that he will not
have to suffer merely because he did not identify himself
with the proper party. Should that day ever arrive, these
Islands will find themselves in the most tragic state Of af-
fairs, and the democratic system will be on its way out.
