By the Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, October 22— Rear Admiral Harry G. Hamlet, Fed- eral Maritime Commission representa- tive, issued a statement last night in- dicating attempts to bring about a one-year truce between shipowners and maritime unions on the basis of old working agreements had failed. The statement said shipowners agreed to & year's extension of old contracts, but that the unions asked certain changes, after which the em- ployers requested that the matter “go along to an investigation of the entire situation as originally promised by the Martime Commission.” Hamlet announced he would start hearings next Monday. | Union leaders did not comment on the announcement, and continued tak- ing ballots among their membership on whether to authorize a coastwide strike beginning next Wednesday, ‘The unions’ demands were unof- clally reported to include: | 1. That union deck officers, pilots and engineers be given preference over non-union men in the available jobs. This they do not now have, 2. No change in the present status of hiring halls. 3. Cash pay for overtime instead of time off for sailors and other un- licensed personnel on ships. 4. An eight-hour day for cooks and stewards; now work 10 hours or more. 5.,A continuance of the six-hour day and union control of the hiring halls for longshoremen and affiliated unions. 6. That the Maritime Commission | study and set up a system of minimum ‘wages. Mrs. Simpson (Continued From First Page.) over the “affaire Simpson,” but over a murder case. Few of the local populace have even heard of King Edward’s Ameri- can friend, nor are they aware their little town has been set as the scene for the dramatic denouement of her second marriage. But they do know that s murder trial, a rare event in this part of the country, is expected to be held—the accused of killing her 32-year-old son. Employes of the East Suffolk County | Council, whose offices adjoin the gray | stone court building, have been for-| bidden to attend the assizes for the first time in history. But they were not aware of the reason for the ban. Local police alone have been tipped | off that “something special is up” at | this assizes—and that visitors to the | court building will not be welcomed. | Justice Sir John Anthony Hawke| is expected to arrive early tomorrow | for his scheduled drive at 9 am. to/ the ancient Church of Mary le Tower, near the birthplace of Cardinal| Wolsey. He will officiate at the civic | |. service which always precedes the | opening of the assizes. Court Opening Ceremeny, Dressed in brilliant scarlet and ermine robes, topped by a white “full bottom” wig and carrying the dread black cap—donned when passing sen- tence of death—Justice Hawke will leave the church, accompanied by the | Lord Mayor of Ipswich, and drive to the county hall. trumpets, announcing to the public | that his majesty’s Court of Assize is about to begin session, will greet him. The dingy yellow-paneled court room, illuminated only by a skylight | in the roof, has a somber air. Squat towers flank the entrance, in grim | imitation of a baronial feudal castle, | with a spike-toothed portcullis sus- | pended over the doorway. Through this door Justice Hawke will proceed to the crimson-canopied chair where he renders judgment in the name of the King. Mrs. Simpson intends to be present in person when her case is heard,| probably Saturday. Police already | have drawn up a plan to smuggle her | into the court building by the back entrance.
