Two stages will be used to avoid
waits because of the long program
of distinguished entertainers which

New York Truckers
Strike, but Observers
Disagree on Effect
Police Soy Only 694 Men
Are Involved, but Union
Claims ), 500 Are Out
By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK. Nov. 22.-AFL
2amsters struck today in a pay
dispute, but union and police
spokesmen disagreed as to the
extent and effects of the Walkout.
These developments were certain;
The strike Immediately hit the
movement of freight from the New
York Central and Pennsylvania
Railroad yards.
1t led the Pennsylvania Railroad
to clamp an embargo on New York
bound freight of less than carload
lots.
1t also further threatened metro
politan area industry, already ham,
pered by the East Coast longshore-
mems strike.
Police Say 694 Strike.
Police headquarters placed the
number of men on strike at 694
truck drivers and said the walkodt
was called against seven trucking
firms.
But leaders of the union, Local
2S2 of the AFL Brotherhood OF
Teamsters, said $500 men were in
volved and $50 companies affected
Police headquarters also reported
that two large food chains had
come to terms with the local several
hours after the strike began.
There has been no picketing, thus
far, police said. They said they
understood that If Local 2S2 threw
up picket line members of Local
s07. one of the largest locals in the
city, would refuse to cross the line.
Headed September Strike.
1t was Local 807 which headed a
trucking strike last September, Grip
pling a large segment of the city's
trucking industry at the time.
Spokesman for the two carriers
handling the movement of freight
from the two railroad yards said
their truck fleets were strike bound
The dispute is based on Local 1925

The source, who asked that he not

He added that the major break
was the possibility that the unior

Suchow Flank
Again Menaced
By Red Forces
Chinese NutionuIists
Insist, However,
They Hold initiative
BY the Assoeiated Press

NANKING, Nov. 22.-Inde-
pendent military dispatches to-
day indicated Communists are
threatening the east flank of
Suchow.
Pro-government reporters, how
ever, insisted national troops still
held the initiative in the resurgence
of fighting mostly centered around
Nienchuang, 80 miles east of
Suchow.
Government armored cars, reports
said, spearheaded national forces
in a battle in the outskirts of Men,
chuang. Many Reds were reported
killed.
Chinese military observers said to-
day that apparently government
forces did not follow up an advan-
tage gained last week when air raids
forced the main Red forces to hunt
cover.
Martial Law Declared.
South of Suchow fighting was re-
ported centered around Suhsien,
midway between Pengpu and
Suchow. Government troops re-
portedly had cleared the area.
Suchow, 1S0 miles northwest of
Nanking guards the approach to the
national capital.
Northward in Peiping, Gen. Flu
Tso-yi, nationalist commander, de-
clared marital law in the five prov
inces he commands. Parades and
other demonstrations were banned
Light fighting between Red and
government troops took place out
side of Peiping.
CThe Chinese Communists an
nounced by radio they captured
Paoting today. The city, 80 miles
southwest of Peiping, is the cap
ital OF Hopeh Province. Only
yesterday government headquar-
ters in Peiping reported the be-
sieging Communists had been
driven from a 10-mile radius
around Paoting, and that the Sit
uation was quiet.)
A band of some 200 Communists
raided government passenger
train bound from Kalgan to Peiping
on Saturday. Five passengers were
killed by the wildly firing Reds,
who detonated a mine under the
train
A government force arrived on
the scene and killed so of the at
tacking Reds before they Withdrew
after robbing the passengers and
taking hostages. Some 100 passen-
gers were reported captives, but a
few were released later.
