Strikes
CLC won Y be scapegoat
By United Press International
The Cost of Living Council
has tentatively agreed to hear
New York City’s urgent request
that it allow striking hospital
workers the 7.5 per cent pay
raise they won in collective
bargaining two years ago,
Mayor John V. Lindsay said
Wednesday.
But John T. Dunlop, chair
man of the council, insisted
that “we have no intention of
being the scapegoat in the
dispute.” Union officials were
not available to comment on
whether they would go along
with the arrangement, which
called for the strike to be ended
in exchange for immediate
consideration of the wage hike.
The council, which has
insisted that the increases be
limited to 5.5 per cent, has been
blamed for the four-day strike
that forced the city’s 48 private
hospitals to discharge thou
sands of patients. One hospital
had its linen delivered by
helicopter to avoid hostile
picketers. There were 33
arrests for strike-related violen
ce.
In another New York strike,
advertising and editorial work
ers at the Daily News accepted
an offer of a $13.85 a week
wage increase in each year of a
two-year contract, ending a
strike that stopped the nation’s
largest circulation newspaper
from publishing for two days.
The current top scale for
editorial employes is $330 a
week. The contract also provid
ed for improving the pension
plan.
The agreement after an
argument-filled two-hour meet
ing forestalled the possibility
that The New York Times
would lend its plant for the
production of the News as it
had offered, a situation that
might have prompted picketing
at the Times and prevented
both papers from publishing.
In other strikes across the
country:
—MilwaukeeMayor Henry W.
Maier, at a press conference,
held aloft a picture of a
fireman carrying a baby from
a burning building and said,
“The question is, where is he
now? This is the job he has
been doing. This is the guy
that’s been doing the job that
we have been so proud of.”
About half the city’s daily
complement of 300 firemen
have been calling in sick since

Congress wins war
with Nixon on curbs
By KIM WILLENSON
WASHINGTON (UPI) - Con
gress has opened a new
constitutional debate with
President Nixon, overriding his
veto and restricting his war
making powers.
By votes of 284 to 135 in the
House and 75 to 18 in the
Senate, the legislators rejected
Nixon’s contention the War
Powers Resolution’s 90-day
limit on unauthorized war
making abroad was both
unconstitutional and dangerous.
It was the first time, after
eight tries on other bills,
Congress has overridden a
presidential veto this year.
The measure’s main sponsor
in the House, Rep. Clement
Zablocki, D-Wis., said immedi
ately that Congress had “sent a
message up Pennsylvania Ave.
loud and clear,” and added he
thought Nixon would be more
cautious in using the veto
hereafter.
Both he and Sen. Jacob
Javits, R-N.Y., the Senate
sponsor, said Nixon’s troubles
over the Watergate tapes and
congressional doubts about his
handling of the Middle East
crisis contributed to the Repub
lican defections making the
override possible.
Sunday morning, when their
contract with the city expired.
A City Council spokesman said
the union has turned down an
offer of a $1,900 yearly wage
increase. Two hundred National
Guardsmen have been national
ized to staff undermanned fire
stations.
—Trans World Airlines was
grounded for the fourth day by
a walkout of stewards and
stewardesses. Management said
no date has been set for
contract talks to start again.
— Negotiations were to
resume in Los Angeles between
representatives of striking
stagehands and the three
television networks.
—The New York firemen’s
dispute with the city, which
broke down into a five-hour
walkout Monday, went to
binding arbitration.

There was no immediate
reaction from the White House,
where Nixon in his veto
message had intimated he
would not abide by the measure
even if he was overridden,
saying any attempt to impose
such restrictions “by legislation
alone is clearly without force.”
Two powerful Senate conser
vatives, Barry Goldwater, R-
Ariz., and John Tower, R-Tex.,
denounced the action and called
for an immediate court test of
its constitutionality.
Tower said the action “sent a
very dangerous message to
Moscow,” and Goldwater called
it “the greatest step toward
constitutional defeat that has
ever been taken by the United
States.”
Administration objections to
the bill rested mainly on two
provisions: !

—The President would au
tomatically be forced to stop a
war after 90 days if Congress
took no action to approve it.
Nixon demanded an up-or-down
vote on the war issue.
—Congress could force an end
to fighting before 90 days with
a concurrent resolution needing
only a majority of each house
and not subject to veto.
The White House did not
object strongly to provisions
requiring an immediate report
when hostilities break out. "ITie
report triggers a process of
congressional consideration
under the bill.
Applause and cheering erupt
ed on the House floor when the
vote was announced there at
1:40 p.m. In the more decorous
Senate, the galleries burst into
applause but members on the
floor did not.
