PLAY-BY-PLAY ACCOUNT Here is the play-by-play account of what happened. When Fairless and Murray were first invited to the White House, they expected to see the President ) himself. However, Saturday morn- | ing, both received orders to report to John Snyder's office. When the; arrived, they found the three “S” men Sny: Steelman and Schwellenbach — waiting for them. | Snyder informed them that the President would not see them at once, but would be available if he were needed. (He had spent an hour that morning posing for a family photograph.) A short time later, the entire conference moved from Snyder's wing of the White House to the cabinet room. ! Snyder began by asking the two men if either had changed his sition since their conference brok up the day Both Mur there U. 8 could go by d out that he had frem 25 cents an He also pointed workers were the War La- -long argument over a five cent an hour increase still undecided, but certain to go to the union, He urged Fairless to throw that increase into the cur- rent negotiations to stave off the strike. Murray, said he was willing to yield two cents of the five due to the union in the War Labor Board litigation if Fairless were willing to yield on his present pro- posal of 15-cent increase. Pairless, however, did not yield He replied that his company had a rough time getting the other steel companies to go along with a 15- cent increase and that scveral had done so under consider: sure.

(Pop House Sam 8212) hours of argument, the three “S men trooped out of the cabinet room and into Truman’s office. Ten minutes later, they came back and escorted Fairless in to see the Pres- ident. Truman then gave Fairless a straight-from-the-shoulder lecture. He pointed out that the National interest was at stake, that the Ad- ministration was being generous to the steel corporations by offer- ing a four-dollar-a-ton price in- crease, and that the country couldn’t afford to let the strike start Fairless pleadea that he had no authorization from the industry to go any higher than 15 cents an hour. This, incidentally, is what Murray had warned Fairless would | say. Shaken by Truman's tough atti- tude, Fairless asked for time to talk the situation over further with his colleagues in New York. He said he needed until Wednesday to get this done. The three “S” men then entered and escorted Fairless back to the cabinet room. While Fairless had been talking to Truman alone, Steelman and Schwellenbach both talked to Mur- ray separately, trying to convince him that they were supporting his case. Then the three Truman aides es- corted Murray in to the President. Truman asked Murray if there was a chance of settlement. Murr: told him that the only chance re: ed in the steel company’s making a decent offer which would restore some of the lost take-home pay to the 700,000 members of the union. Murray had informed the White House before the meeting that if the steel strike was settled, then all CIO unions would de! their planned walk-outs until there could be further negotiations. Murray told the President that the Steel Corporation was the piper that played the tune for all big bu ; that if “Big Steel” made a agreement, the electri- cal appliance producers, the meat packers, glass makers, the auto manufacturers would follow suit UNION PATIE Truman repeated his plea the national interest was & and said he couldn’t let the start. Mur replied that he too was anxious ln avoid a strike but that after five months of fruitless pegotiations, the patience of his members was worn thin. The President then said that Fairless wanted a little more time to work out @ deal b bPli(\c we can settle in a wee Truman declared. “It would be a national ealamity if the steel mills clesed down now.” Murray was silent for Finally he said, “I can on WORN THIN that stake, trike fy selection hospitals, few days before the V. y, Acting It in Such as Neither Tupelo nor e -ninth made by that must be ry Ickes said, a status of The islanders elect their own President of the United a resident of the island heads of "the territorial government slands from Washington is not attempted they have virtually complete autonomy in We pointed out five years ago in discussing awaii complex of our Pacifio and the thoughtfully whether Statehood would afford Anv, it seems a very minor issue am tion in Cm\‘;rv.\\ at present privileges of democ: in customs, langus of Hawaii THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA of ‘these two towns for 1EW o ¢ @ 6 © ¢ © 6,6 6 86 o it doesn't seem far-fetched ‘to b . might have been just a little dash | == §0 84444 d | : annonced that new d Bonham, Gen surgeon General of the VA, t if politics forced the VA to take iy or Navy hospitals which cannot ed ith competent docto ounds interesting built at Tupelo or JANUARY 17 Ralph Randall Merion Cass Doris Kendall Alice Graham M.
