Rotary Has Talk
On
Braden Gives History
And Cites Cases In
Which It Has Worked
J. Noble Braden, vice-presi-dent
of t^c American Arbitration
Association, gave an interesting
talk on "Arbitration," to the
members of the Freeport Rotary
Club Thursday night at their
weekly dinner in the Elks club
house. He cited numerous cases
settled by the association within
a few days, or even hours, that
would have dragged on for
weeks had they been tried in
court.
Mr, Bradcn said arbitration of
disputes was legalized by the
'New York'legislature in 1920,
and that shortly thereafter the
A.A.A., was incorporated to put
the plan into ^operation. He
added that throughout the coun-try
6,000 business and profession-al
men are listed aa arbitrators.
All are experts in one line or
another and arc called in to set-tle
disputes among parties en-gaged
in the businesses in which
The speaker said the Inter-
American* Arbitration Commis-sion
Arbitrated disputes among
Latin-American countries. He
said also that arbitration clauses
were contained in contracts of
theatrical and motion picture
owners and actors, and in vari-ous
labor unions not to mention
a long list of industries.
Mr. Braden said contracts of
the War Labor Board contained
arbitration clauses, which If taken
advantage of would go a long
way toward eliminating beauro-cracy
in Washington. At the
conclusion o( the war, he added
much time would be saved tn
setting disputes that are sure t
arise by the canceling of con
tracts, if the matter is arbitratec
instead of being carried through
the courts. Mr. Bradcn also said
that arbitration developed a
friendly atmosphere even between
litigants. He cited one case in
which a new order was issued
while the arbitrators were reach-ing
their decision, in the case at
