UNO:
Weather Storm
Fraught with danger to the
United Nations Organization and
world peace, the tense Russo-Iran
ian dispute melted under the prom
ise of diplomatic compromise, with
Moscow saving face and Tehran its
sovereignty.
Secretary of State James Byrnes,
chief U. S. delegate to the UNO se
curity council, started the happy
train of events, suggesting that both
countries state their position in the
dispute over Russian failure to with
draw from Iran before UNO consid
ered action in the case.
Russia had walked out of the se
curity council after its decision to
consider the question and Byrnes’
proposal offered an excellent oppor
tunity for the Reds to walk back
In without losing prestige. Making
the most of the chance, the Rus
sians wrote UNO that they were
pulling out of Iran without imposing
any conditions for their retirement
and their troops should be gone by
May 6.
Taking his cue, Iran’s representa
tive then told the security council
that if definite assurances could be
obtained that the Russians would ap
ply no pressure for oil concessions
or Red-backed provincial govern
ments as a condition for withdraw
al, Iran would consider the matter
closed.
And upon that happy note, UNO
appeared to have overcome its first
great hurdle.
RAIL PAY:
Balk at Findings
In protesting the 16-cent-an-hour
raise awarded by a labor-manage
ment arbitration board, railroad un
ion officials declared that the boost
granted failed to meet higher living
costs and adjust differences in pay
between railroad workers and em
ployees in other industries.
Declaring railroad workers were
entitled to a 46-cent-an-hour in
crease, B. M. Jewell, representing
15 non-operating unions, and E. E.
Milliman, president of the Brother
hood of Maintenance of Way Em
ployees, asserted that the minimum
award should have included 11%
cents an hour for higher living costs
plus the general industry-wide 18%
cent-an-hour postwar advance.
Meanwhile, railroad officials also
complained against the arbitration
board’s wage decisions, estimated
to add up to $4OO per year for
1,220,000 members of three operat
ing and 15 non-operating unions and
cost the carriers $584,000,000 an
nually.
Echoing the carriers’ warnings
that increased wages would require
rate boosts, President Fred G. Gur
ley of the Santa Fe announced that
the 16-cent-an-hour award was too
large and his road would immedi
ately appeal for higher freight tar
iffs. Stating that the wage increases
would add $25,000,000 yearly to
Santa Fe operating costs, Gurley
said the boost coupled with higher
material, supply and fuel costs
against reduced income made the
step necessary.
Because both the railroads and
unions had agreed to accept the
arbitration boards’ findings as final
in submitting their dispute for set
tlement, no work stoppage loomed
because of disagreement over terms.
The recommendations were hand
ed down even as a fact-finding pan
el conducted hearings on demands
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
