PAGE EIGHT ™ STRIKE THREAT ON 3 RAILROADS TO MATERIALIZE Four Unions Involved in| Technical Interprefa- tion of Rules (By The Associated Press) Three of the nation's railroads | were threatened with strikes today, making possible the idling of more that 130,000 rail and steel workers. Some 30,000 workers are set to quit their jobs on the Missouri| Pacific at 1 p. m. (PDT) tomorrow. Union officials, who rejected ' an arbitration proposal yesterday, went ahead with strike plans in the dis- pute over some 282 unsettled claims involving about $5.000,000. In Pittsburgh, Rail Brotherhood officials have called strikes on two inter-plant connection carriers MENTAL HEALTH ' CLINICS, ALASKA, | Dr bue” with |and Interior Department officials. “There are absolutely no facil- |ities in the whole vast for caring for mental health cases,” he told newsmen. & which serve scores of plants, prin-| cipally in the steel industry. One| walkout is set for Saturday and the second for next Tuesday. The work stoppages on the lines would make idle some 100,000 steelworkers. Wages are not involved in any of the rail disputes. In Washington, Frank Douglas, | member of the mediation board, | said the board has “given up en- tirely” in its efforts to avert the strike against the Missouri Pacif.c| Line. The road reported in St. Louis that it had stopped accept- ing freight that cannot be deliver- ed before the strike deadline. Four Rail Unions Four rail unions are involved in; the dispute. They are the Locomo- tive Engineers, Enginemen and Firemen, Railroad Trainmen and Railway Conductors. In Cleveland yesterday brotherhood spokesmen | said they had decided to make “no change whatsoever” in their mke plans. The strike calls in Pittsburgh by | the Brotherhood of Railroad Train- | men stemmed from disputes involv- q ing technical interpretation of the various rules. Other major labor developmems\ across the nation included: In New York, Cyrus S. Cmng head of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, planned sep- arate conferences with negotiators in attempts to effect a settlement of the 131-day old Hawalian dock | strike, Harry Bridges, head of the o PAY CASH AND SA CIO Inteérnational Longshoremen’s| and Warehousemen's Union, de- manded that picketing and “black- listing” issues be settled before any general settlement is reached in the dispute. After yesterday’'s new violence in the 13-week old Bell Aircraft strike | at Buffalo, N. Y., Gov. Thomas E. Dewey called for a halt “to such lawlessness.” injuries. 20 Million Dollar Loan Is Sought by Yugoslavia; 0. K. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8—(®— Diplomatic officials said today they understood the Export-Import Bank has approved a multi-million dol- ‘ lar lodn to Yygoslavia. The'amount was reported to rl:e around $20,000,000. The money| would be used mainly to buy machinery and equipment needed | by Yugoslav copper, lead and zinc mines. The credit would be the first| direct American loan to the Yugo- slav government since Marshal Tito broke with Moscow about 15 months ago. Yugoslavia has been pressing an application for a loan for about three weeks. Secretary of State Acheson is known to have strongly supported !he application. He urged that it was a “calculated risk” necessary to bolster Yugoslavia’s economy and strengthen Tito as a symbol of in- dependence from Mosoowa orders. ~within easy reach by fast 4-engine Clipper Fly in swift comfort sboard the big, 4-mile-a-minute Clippers . . . serving on frequent schedules.
