PITTSBURGH POWER
UNION VOTE FIXED.
Tuesday Election May Have
Bearing On Gripping
19-Day Strike

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 12.@PEThe
independent Power Workers unior
whose wage demands have en-
meshed this steel capital in a 49,
day power strike today faced Z
fight for existence in a collective
bargaining election, tentatively sci
for Tuesday.
The election date was fixed by
the National Labor Relations Boarc
after a meeting of officials of the
struck Duquesne Light Co. anc
representatives of four unions.
The election, called for by dis.
trict so of the AFL-United Mine
Workers, will involve 1,700 main
tenance and production workers.
a majority of the 5000 members
of the striking Independent associa'
ton of employees of the Duquesne
light and associated companies.
A spokesman for district so said
the other members of the indie
pendent union, largely clerical ano
technical workers, were not taking
part in the balloting because men,
bers of that union were not among
the original group requesting a
bargaining rights petition.
The spokesman said the UNIV
claimed to represent only the 1,70(
maintainence and production work
ers and that clerical employees,
meter readers and other workers
were not involved in the petition tc
the NLRB and, therefore, would
not take part in the balloting.
In addition to district so, other
unions to be represented on the
ballot are the independent union;
the AFL-international Brotherhood
Of Electrical workers and the Go
utility workers of America.
At the same time, 2,7Oo idle ALL
streetcar motormen, who twice
voted against crossing picket lines
set up by the power strikers, were
again balloting-this time by mail
ON whether to return to work.
The 16-day stoppage by street
car and bus operators, depriving
l, 1000, 900 daily riders of transpor-
tation, has been the most pro-
nounced effect of the drawn-out
poWer Walkout.
A civic-community group, claim
ing 300, 900 members, today threat
ened the union with court action
unless it acts on petitions calling
for a new general membership
vote on arbitration.
The petitions had been circula-
ted by some of the striking mem
bers who emphasized that it was
not a back-to-work movement,
but a demand, under the union
constitution, for a meeting.
George L.. Mueller, the unions
balding president, said he planned
to ignore the petitions.
"Just because a few company
dominated employees want to hold
ar election, they can't inconveni.
ence the rest of the membership"
Meller declared.

Thorp was one of the final speak

Gusev admitted the Hungarian

Hungarian r 1r o a d and other

Throp retorted that the So, 000,-

FRENCH TO VOTE
ON CONSTITUTION


CONTINUED from rage One)
garnered Is, O0O, 900 votes in last
Jure's elections, compared with o.
900, 900 for the radical socialists and
rightist groups who opposed the
constitution.
Chief worry Of the leaders of the
major parties is that many French
men will vote against the charter
as an expression of dissatisfaction
over side issues, much as the cleo
ton law or the number of scandals
exposed in the food rationing sys-
tenn in the last week.
Approximately 20 1000, 900 voters
are expected to go to the polls
to answer the single question: edo
you approve the constitution adopt
ed by the national constituent as
sembly?"
No one shrugs off the Importance
of De Gaulle's opposition, which
may influence a large majority of
independent voters and a sizeable
fraction of Bidault's MRP which
considers De Gaulle its unofficial
leader. 8
Bidault and De Gaulle have
squared off in a battle over the
constitution, which is also a silent
tug-of-war over MRP leadership.
The mo- vote will be interpreted
as a fair measure of De Gaulle's
popularity.
De Gaulle has condemned the
constitution on the grounds that it
fails to separate the executive,
legislative and judiciary branches
of the governmental situation he
says will lead to anarchy, tyranny
and dictatorship and in the event
of war to a repetition of the 1910
catastrophe.
Bidault has defended the docu-
ment as setting up a safe parlia-
mentary scheme of government
and has stated that its acceptance
is necessary to give France q
stable government. Failure to ap-
prove it would threaten civil peace
and on the international plane "the
independence of the nation" he
adds.

SLAV OFFICIAL
HAYSACHESON
Decries Criticism Of Stepi-
mac Trial By State De-
partment Officer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12-R-
Ambassador Sava Il. Kosanovic O.
Yugoslavia dashed back at Under
secretary of State Dean Achesor
today for criticizing the Stepinat
trial 'although admitting he hae
only superficial press reports"
The ENJOYS statement insisted
that Catholic Archbishop Alojzije
Stepinac had a fair trial on charges
of Axis collaboration and that "ev-
cry one of his acts would be pun
ishable under American law"
Moreover, Kosanovic specifically
denied Acheson's remark that the
United States had been compelled
to take up with the Yugoslavs a
very considerable number" OF
trials of American citizens which
were unfairly conducted"
The ambassador said only one
American citizen had been tried
in Yugoslavia, hat Ambassador
Richard C. Patterson publicly
stated that the trial vas fair, and
that the only dispute between Bel
grade and Washington was whether
the man had diplomatic immunity.
In that case an American EN-
bassy chauffeur named Wedge wa:
condemned to eight years impris-
onment on the charge that he
killed M person and seriously
wounded another, Kosanovic ex-
planned.
With respect to this, a state
department spokesman told report
ers there actually had been many
cases although no information as
to what they involved had been
given out here.
Acheson spoke out at a news
conference yesterday in response
to what he said were requests for
comment on Stepinac's trial and
sentence to 1e years hard labor.
He said the main question was one
of civil liberties in Yugoslavia and
that the American government
wondered whether there was any
thing in the Stepinac trial tending
toward impairment Of religious
freedom. Moreover, he expressed
concern over whether the trial
was unfairly conducted.
Kosanovic replied:
l. That those who attack Yugo-
slavia in the Stepinac case take
the position that because DR.. Step
mac is Archbishop of the Catholic
church he has a privileged posi-
ton before the law"
2. That it is not ''in the interest
Of the Catholic church to defend
such crimes as those Of which
Stepinac is guilty and in effect to
identify itself with these crimes"
3. That the Yugoslav constitu-
ton like the American" guaran-
tees the Equality Of citizens and
that any act granting privileges
to persons or limiting their rights
because Of differences Of ma
tonality, race, or creed" is un-
constitutional.
