The colleges and universities will have ten years of reduced pressure to get ready for the extra war babies of 1942 onward. How many will register in the 1960’s will depend partly upon how plentiful dollars are then, oand that will depend upon too many factors we cannot now predict.

It is the local means of effecting a compromise which the parties cannot bring themselves to accept through negotiations. In this nection we note with much interest that the utility strike in Pittsburgh has at last been settled, after incredible losses to the entire city had been piled up, by an agreement to arbitrate. In this instance a handful of power workers arbitrarily chose chaos and stagnation for four weeks in prefe ence to the common sense of arbitration. In the case of Washington’s hotel strike it is the employers who have reckles declined to let the arbitration process operate To be sure, the hotels are giving lip service to the principle of arbitration. They are quite willing to arbitrate if most of the real issues are excluded | ~ — — — = NOVEMBER 27 Loise Standafer James Smith Roberta A, Messerschmidt Louise Hildre Neill Gallagher NOVEMBER 28 Dan anworth Edwin Stewart Grace Berg Sante Degan Oscar Jenson Frank G.

Following are the basic issues of the dispute, they are not entitled under lists of passengers carried from any rule of semantics or sportsmanship to claim that Juneau to Kechikan: Bob Martin, they favor arbitration. | Mrs. Berteson and Ray Lingley: to The Post has suggested that arbitration in this ' Petersburg: Mrs. Clemmons, Mrs. T. case should cover all wage issues, including the question ' Wilder, Mrs. J. Metcalf and William of vacations and pay for extra help, as well as the | Wilson split-shift issue a the distribution of tips paid in lump sums at banquets. That proposal has met with widespread approval, except from the camp of the hctel managements. Their representative, Joseph C McGarraghy, has vigorously denounced the plan, there- by strengthening the conclusion that wueir lip service to arbitration is only a sham. Apparently if any states: manship is to be shown in breaking the present de: lock, the unions will have to show it. | We continue to think that this proposal offers fair and equitable means of settling the strike But since the hotels disagree, let them and the unior join in asking Federal Conciliator Clyde Mills for hi recommendations for a formula on which arbitration can go forward. Any real devotion to the principle of arbitration would thus be manifested by getting im- partial and disinterested advice as to what shall be arbitrated. Refu to follow this reasonable cours or some similar course, will count heavily in th public mind against the obstructionists. Indeed, we surmise that the public conscience will compel a settle= | ment according to the principles of arbitration and that delay in accepting that inevitable outcome can only pile up the losses to everyone without changing the result. The experience of Pittsburgh should be sufficient to show the tragic cost of resisting a means | of settlement which, in the end, will doubtless have to | be accepted anyway clerical hire. | In this connection one impor.ant battle is aimed at pre venting motherly GOP Congres woman Edith Nourse Rogers Massachusetts from Chairman of the mittee.
