 Talk Wlth Operator
 Representativos of ii packing companies conferred yesterday with Gayle e. Armstrong, New Mexico rancher named to operate the prop- critics, and agreed to cooperate with the government. Six other packers were expected to meet with him to- day.
 Armstrong deslgnated tho company presidents or other top officials as his agent during the seizure. In addition, the companies were ln- structed to fly the American flag above the seized plants, post noe tices of government seizure and ape point Q manager for each plant as a government representative.
 Conditions Of employment, inc cluding working hours and wages, in effect when the strike began Jan. IS were to be maintained under pro- visions of the seizure order.
 Students Join Tickets
 Tn Chicago, center of the industry, approximately 50 sympathetic Uni- Yersity of Chicago students joined the picket lines at midnight, carry- ing bannera calling for living wage" for Packinghouse Workers.
 U. g. District Attorney J. Albert woll said he would remain in his oflce today in case Armstrong re- quested legal aid to carry out the seizure.
 CTO strikers employed by Swift and Company in Kansas City, Kan, voted last ngiht to return to their jobs, but strike conditions were un- changed ct the city's three other main packing houses. Independents Operate
 Union officials in Chicago said the action was taken with the full consent of the parent union, because the CTO does not have contract with the Swift management in Kansas City. The plant has con tinued to operate, they said, with employees belonging to an independ- ent union.
 CTO union officials had no irnme- diate comment on Secretary Ander- sons telegram, which promised he would seek immediate approval of any wage increases recommended by a fact finding board, now meet ing in Chicago.
 In 0 telephone conversation earlier in the day with Lewis J. Clark, president of the CTO Clearinghouse Workers, Anderson said he would urge wage increases retroactive to the date of seizure if such recom- mendation were made by the fact finding board.
 PSI Local Vote Opposition
 The CTO unions decision to con- tinue the strike was voted yesterday by union leaders representing PSF locals. The delegates issued Q bit- terly-worded statement accusing President Truman of engaging in 'strike-breaking and union-bust- ing" activities.
 Later, at Q press conference, union officials said they had been assured 'by high government ofi- cials" in Washington that the Pres ident's order would provide wage relief to Clearinghouse Workers.
 we got complete double cross" Clark told reporters.
 Both company and union officials previously had received telegrams from Secretary Anderson, reminding them of penalties which could be imposed if there were any interfer- ence with production in a plant under Government operation.
 Under the Smith Connally Act, an individual is not compelled to return to work but is restrained from committing overt acts" against workers who try to resume their jobs.

Pending litigation against the City of Waterbury in connection with leyying of tax-rate and estah- lishment of a budget on a Grand IAst estimate short of actuality may have Q serious effect on the municipality's borrowing ability this spring. Steps have already been taken to sell Tax Anticipation notes but there may be complications, for buyers Of these notes usually re- quire a legal opinion as to the city s ability to pay before they bid. And a legal opinion right now would have to show pending litigation. It may not cause any prospective bidder to shy away or to offer to buy at a high rate of interest, but there are possibilities, which city finance oficers are watching for snxiously.
