David Lawrence Cole was a graduate of Harvard University (BS., 1921) and Fairleigh
Dickinson University (LL.B., 1924, LL.D., 1964.) Although he practiced law in
Paterson, N.J. from 1926 until his death as senior partner in the law firm of Cole,
Berman & Belksy, David Cole will chiefly be remembered for a distinguished
career as a government arbitrator and mediator. In this field he served on numerous
state and federal boards and in various governmental agencies. Cole was chairman of
the New Jersey State Board of Mediation; a public member of Region 2, United States
War Labor Board; and chairman of the Presidential Boards of Inquiry in the
bituminous coal industry (1948) and in the longshore industry (1953, 1968). Cole was
also a member or chairman of numerous Presidential Emergency Boards which settled
disputes in the railroad and airline industries (1948-1958); the chairman of the
conciliation service for the New York City transit service (1961-1965); director of
the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (1952-1953); chairman of the New
Jersey Governor's Committee on Public Utility Strike Service (1952-1953); member of
the President's Labor-Management Advisory Committee (1961-1964); and member of the
New York Governor's Public Employee Relations Committee (1966-1968), which
established the New York State Public Employee Relations Board. Cole was also
appointed as chairman of the President's Commission on Industrial Peace in 1973.
Beyond his public service, Mr. Cole was active as a counsel for employer groups in
the textile industry (1926-1942) and as an impartial chairman for other
labor-management contract disputes. He was also impartial arbitrator for the AFL-CIO
Internal Disputes Plan (1954-1976), served as a visiting professor at the New York
State School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University (1954-1955) and
was Kestenbaum lecturer at Harvard in 1962. Mr. Cole was the author of INDUSTRIAL
PEACE (1963).
