Reuther Proposes Fact-Finding Board Federal Aid Needed In Kohler Strike WASHINGTON (UP) — Walter P. Reuther picked up some congressional support today for his proposal that a presidential fact--finding board study the issues in > .

the 4-year-old Kohler strike. Sen. Irving M. Ives (R-N.Y.), vice chairman of the Senate Rackets Committee, told reporters he might introduce legislation authorizing President Eisenhower to appoint a board of inquiry. He said a state board plan in effect in New York since 1941 has had “tremendous results.” Although the President probably already has authority to set up such a board, Ives said, some legislative support might be useful Reuther, quick - thinking, fasttalking president of the United Auto Workers, made the proposal during his appearance before the Rackest Committee Thursday. Reuther said he ordinarily opposed government intervention in labor disputes but felt the UAW’s long strike against the Kohler Co. had reached the point where some federal assistance was required. “We’ve tried everything else/’ he said. He said the Kohler, Wis., firm has declined to arbitrate the issue and that public opinion could be brought into play through a factfinding panel. He suggested it be composed of “three outstanding Americans who have no ax to . grind.’’ The White House declined to comment on the proposal but administration officials said there is no law covering such a situation They said it could not be done without a request from both sides. A Labor Department spokesman said Labor Secretary James P. Mitchell already has offered to act as arbitrator if both sides i request it.
