7 Georgia Papers Resume
As Printers End WaIkouf
BY the Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ga, Nov. 4.-The
two Columbus newspapers - the
morning Enquirer and the afternoon
Ledger-resumed publication today
after settlement of wage differences
which resulted in walkout OF
printers last Thursday.
Pressmen and stereotypers left
their jobs in sympathy with the
printers, who failed to report for
work at the end of 30-day grace
period following expiration of the
old contract.
Under that contract the printers,
members of the International Typo
graphical Union, AFL, had 40
hour week provision with $1.35 per
hour for day work and s1.42 for
night work. This was equivalent to
s54 and $500, respectively, per
week.
The new contract, retroactive to
October for time worked, calls for
s1.67 and $1.74, respectively, for day
and night shifts, s62.63 and $65.25
for a 37k-hour week. The third
shift-between the night and day
shifts-gets seven cents more than
the night shift.
The union had asked $1.74 per
hour for day work and $1.S1 at
night.

Ito the theme selected for this year S

The Presidents statement, re-

Atomic energy can contribute
immeasurably to mans welfare, or
it can destroy civilization as we
know it. Whether its powers shall
be harnessed for good or for evil,
the adult citizens of the United
States will in large measure decide
1t is the task of education to bring
about a realization of the issues
at stake and to develop the prac-
tices of human brotherhood that
alone will enable us to achieve in

Canterbury Asks Exchange
Between Enq|ish Churches
BY the Associuted Press

LONDON, Nov. "A proposal by
the Archbishop of Canterbury, DR..
Geoffrey Fisher, that full COM
munion" be established between the
Church of England and other Prot
estant bodies in the United King
dom provoked wide discussion today.
DR.. Fisher said in a Cambridge
sermon yesterday that he believed
the time had arrived for an unhin-
dered exchange of ministers among
the churches and for members of
each denomination to take COM
munion in the churches of the
others.
The Times of London said there
would be general agreement with
the archbishop's statement that his
proposal avoided "the fearful COM
plexities of a premature constitu-
tional union," and approved the
lowering of church barriers 80
damaging to the moral
Of the world"
DR.. Fisher said the non Episcopal
churches could guard most effec-
lively against the abuses of epis-
copacy' by taking it into their
own system"-that is, by instituting
bishops Of their own in preparation
for the time which each Christian
communion should contribute the
whole of its separate ministry" to
all other ministers willing to recog-
nize 1t. -

Businessmen in China
Assoii Treaty Secrecy

SHANGHAI. Nov. 4 P).-Foreign
quarters appeared to be distinctly
doubtful today as to whether the
new Chinese-American treaty would
open the way to more extensive
trade between the two countries.
Most American businessmen COM
planned that unnecessary secrecy"
shrouded treaty negotiations Some
said the negotiations presumably
were conducted without adequate
advice from businessmen operating
in China.
Ii Ming, prominent Chinese bank
er who recently returned from the
United States, welcomed the pact
as a boost to Chinas morale. He
said it should go long way toward
stabilizing China's economic struc-
ture and furthering trade between
China and the United States.
Bruce Smith, acting president OF
the Shanghai American Chamber
of Commerce, said the treaty should
make trade relations between the
two countries easier.
