Military Budget Will Depend On Unified Savings

WASHINGTON, (PD -. Senator McKellar D.-Tenn0 advised the armed services yesterday their fi- nancial rating with the new Con- gress may rest on whether they can show a unification savings dividend.
 The veteran lawmaker is slated for a key role in settling the mounting dispute over how much this country will spend on defense next year. He is due to become chairman of the Senate appropria- tions committee, which must give clearance to federal spending re- quests.
 A staunch administration sup porter, McKellar indicated he is backing President Truman's plan to hold military outlays within a fifteen billion dollar limit in the fiscal year starting July 1. Secre- tary of defense Forrestal had pro- posed a budget allotment ranging up to twenty-three billion.

Ship Strike Ends; Jurisdiction Talks Still Hang Fire

SAN FRANCISCO, (P)-Agree. ment was reached today with the last of five striking maritime unions to end the west coast strike
 Omark Hoskins, federal concil- iator, said the CIO radio operators and the Pacific American Ship owners association came to terms after an all night conference. Both sides were to hold ratification meetings today.
 Earlier the other unions and em- ployers reached agreements to end the three-month strike.
 Even before the radio operators and shipowners reached terms, the unions had agreed to a limited | work schedule today, with four ships freed for work in this port so that Christmas cargo could start moving to Hawaii and the Philip pines.
 The radio operators new con- tract would run for three years, with annual wage reviews. It pro- vides for a 10 per cent pay in- crease, bringing the basic freighter wage from $295 a month to $325. Operators will receive pay for | shifting ships in port.
 Two unions, the CIO marine cooks and stewards and the inde- pendent marine firemen, made peace with the employers yester- day. The CIO longshoremen and | CIO marine engineers previously had agreed on terms. l
 There is an additional dispute to i be ironed out. The non-striking

(By The Associated PresS)

Chinese communists announced today the capture of SuchOW, big nationalist base 2l1 miles north west of Nanking.
 S garrison of 250,000 had been ordered southWard to rescue the trapped l2th Chinese army group earlier in the week. Pilots drop ping rice to the city reported the communists within mile of Su- chow, so there was no reason to doubt the report.
 The victory exposed the rear of three outnumbered government army groups to the advancing communists. The commun t S claimed the governments 10th di- vision, trapped with the 18th army group, had gone oyer to the Red side.
 In Berlin, Col. Frank HoWley, U. s. sector commandant, said the Russians have broken so many agreements he doubts whether it is wise to try and reach another ac- cord in the continuing German cri- sis. He said the communists who set up trump city government in the Russian sector to replace the elected Berlin regime are "crim- inalS."
 Howley said the communists acted with full Russian accord and this was ''just one more step in the long line of broken agreements" over the last two years
 Efforts were renewed today to mediate the East-WeSt Berlin blockage deadlock despite com munist strongarm efforts to seize the whole city.
 A high state department off cial in Washington said the cleo ton of a separate communist gov ernment in Berlin-by a show of hands rather than by ballots made a solution more difficurt, if not impossible.
 Neutral financial experts were instruct led by the six neutral" powers of the U. N. security coun- cil to draft Berlin currency regu- lations acceptable to all four occu- patton powers this month. A French official said, however, Something new" will be needed to end the crisis now that the communists, at Russian bidding, have divided the city entirely.
 The currency issue was raised by the Russians as an issue after they blockaded Berlin in June. Actually they are trying to chase the U. S., Britain and France from
