S. at Seattle SEATTLE, June 7. — American shipping enterests, Maitland 8. Pennington declared today, will op- pose to the utmost a British reso- lution calling for establishment of an international shipping authority with power to designate the share of each nation in the tonnage of the world’s commerce. Pennington, U. S. Employers’ del- egate to the world maritime con- ference, asserted the proposal “has no place whatever in this confer- ence and is completely outside the ugenda, which has to do solely with seamen’s wages, working conditions and other collateral matters.” The resolution was dropped into the hopper just before the Thurs- day opening of the conference by Charles Jarman, British labor del- egate.

New Truce_May Be Last| Chance fo End 18 Years of Civil War HESE | NANKING, June 7.~Guns of| China's warring factions were ord- ered silenced at noon today for 15 days of last-chance peace negotia- tions, delaying the prospects for an all-out battle in Manchuria which had threatened to break out at any| moment. As the cease-fire deadline passed, there was no word here as to ef- fectiveness of the truce. It was probable that some fight- ing between Communist and gov- ernment forces would continue, particularly in such areas as the Anshan Steel district where the| rivals are wildly intermixed, but the threat cf full-scale civil war was gone at least for a fortnight. Negotiators raced to accomplish| a permanent peace during this brief | period of grace.

Senator Johnson (D-Colo) told re-| porters. Others echoed that fore- cast. The same word went out for the advancement of John L.

June 7-Edward Coe- ster, business agent of the Sallors Union of the Pacific (AFL) an- nounced members voted unani- mously at a stop-work meeting to- day to sign no more ship’s articles until contract negotiations are de- finitely scheduled by employer and union representatives. He said the Seattle branch of the SUP took this action on recom- mendation of Harry Lundeberg, San Francisco, head of the SUP and the Seafarers International Union, with which the SUP is al- lied. Coester, a vice-president of the Seafarers International, said articles already signed for ship de- partures would be honored “to pro- tect the men’s papers.” Four ships were posted to clear today and union spokesmen said union members employed on them would remain at their posts during the work-stoppage.

Scores of taxis sped down| the avenue, all too busy or too full to stop. The man stood, patient, digni- fied, apparently accustomed to this delay. His stately mien did not jibe with the job of standing on a street corner and signaling for a taxi, but he persisted. Several swank -limousines drove up to the apartment house to drop gr pick up passengers, but the dig- mified gentleman on the curb pa- tiently continued to wait for more plebeian transportation. He was Senator Alben Barkley of Kentucky, Majority leader of the Senate. And his difficult efforts to hail a taxi are perhaps symbolic of other things in Barkley’s current career. The Senator has no car of his own. McKellar of Tennessee, the Senate’s presiding officer, has tak- en over the vice-presidential car. Leslie Biffle, Secretary of the Sen- ate, has two cars though he uses them not for himself but for sena- torial errands. Every cabinet mem- ber and many sub-cabinet members have government cars and chauf- fers. But the majority leader of the Senate walks or tries to hail a taxi. Unlike one or two of his col- leagues, Barkley has not built up a lush law firm. He has no independ- ent income. Unlike one or two of his colleagues, also, he has not us- ed his inside knowledge to specu- lJate on the commodities market. Mrs. Barkley has been ill for [Continued on Page Four) {Hogben, Dr. R. M.

Navy Funds Given Terrific Slashing WASHINGTON, June 7.—The Senate appropriations committee to- jday cut $39,708,800 from Navy funds approved by the House. It recommended Senate approval of an annual supply bill contain- ing $4,100,009,100 for the fiscal year starting July 1. Senator Overton (D-La), chairman of the subcom- |mittee which conducted hearings on the legislation, told reporters that “this is the first time in history that the Senate committee has re- duced funds for the Navy.” Overton said the reductions will not impair the size or strength of sea and Naval air power, which is now . claimed to equal the com- bined navies of the rest of the world. ————tl o ———— FROM THE STATES Arrivals from the States yester- day registering at the Baranof Ho- tel were: Kenneth G.

Announcement of the termina- tien of the 29-year-old diplomatic rift between the powers was made here by President Juan Peron at his first press conference since taking office last Tuesday. Simultaneously, the Moscow ra- dio, heard in London, said the two governments, “inspired by the high principles of collaboration and un- Jerstanding between peoples, de- clare they have decided to estab- lish from today complete diplomat- ic, consular and trade relations.” The Moscow broadcast said am- hassadors would be exchanged “in the near future.” The official Soviet press said the diplomatic link between the na- tions would result in extensive trade.
