CONFERENCES TO DECIDE

Closed Talks Will Settle Issue of
War or Peace in Major Industries

WASHINGTON (UP)—Whether
the nation will be spared a round
of major strikes this year will be
negotiations during the 16 weeks
decided in collective bargaining
. starting Feb. 29.
| During that period, the terms
i on which employers will hire the
j workers—and conditions under
i which unions will offer their lab
1 or—will be worked out in the au
tomobile, steel, coal, telephone,
shipping and builo’ing industries.
Almost all of the contracts were
negotiated in 1947 without major
J work interruptions. Government
; officials hope for a repetition
' when employers and union spokes
men gather around tables in
meeting rooms closed to the pub
| lie to work out 1948 terms by
June 30. |
James Caesar Petrillo, president

NLRB Wants To Know
The National Labor Relations
Board is trying to find out what J
kind of bargaining has been done
in the publishing and printing in
dustries in its suit against the In
ternational Typographical Union
(AFL). The Union has been
charged with a refusal to bargain
and other labor practices.
Only occasionally do negotiat
ors reveal ineia'ents like the one
when John L. Lewis, president *of
the United Mine Workers, and
Edward R. Burke, former presi
de nt of the Southern Coal Pro
ducers Association, stood toe-to
toe threatening to slug each oth
erer to settle their disagreemet.
As a general ride the sharp per
sonal exchanges by the negotiat
ors on both sides, the reasoning
debate, the statistical arguments
remain secret.
New techniques will be de
manded of the negotiators this
year as most of them for the first
time will be working out a con
tract to conform to the legal re
quirements of the Taft-Hartley
labor law. On their skill rides the
nation's chances for industrial
peace and uninterrupted produe
t ion.
