Airline Strikes
Annoy Gov’t.
Mediation Officers
Old strikes continued to plague '
two of the nation’s major airlines
or the eve of the New Year.
Government officials showed
signs Tuesday of increasing an
noyance with the prolonged dis
TMifpc at Eastern and American
Airlines.
The National Mediation Board
sent a strongly worded recommen
dation to Eastern and its striking
flight engineers to take immediate
steps to settle the strike, which
began November 24. The board
urged arbitration, if necessary.
Senator Barry Goldwater (R
Ariz) suggested the strike of pi
< lots 'at American could lead to
federal legislation outlawing
strikes in transportation' indus
tries.
The threat of a walkout against
a third major line — National
Air Lines — diminished somewhat
when the Airlines Ticket Agents
Association formally accepted an
offer from the national board to
mediate the association’s dispute
with the company.
The national board told both
Eastern and the engineers in a
telegram that “your economic tug
of-war must come to an end. . . .
You must now yield to the right
of the public to have adequate air
transportation by agreeing on a
peaceful method to settle this
dispute.”
Eastern accepted the recommen
dations promptly on condition the
striking union did likewise.
