Ching Issues Warning
As UAW Hands Ford
Offer Of Settlement
By the Assoeiofsd Press

DETROIT, May 14.-Negotia-
tons In the lo-day-old Ford strike
which has put at least 100000
men out Of work gave some indica-
lions Of progress today.
It wasn't enough. however. to
bring forth any talk of early set
tlement and at the same time the
Federal Government was interest
ing itself in the strikes grave
consequences"
Mediation Director Cyrus 8.
Ching said he would step in unless
the strike were settled within
reasonable period"
Mr.. Ching. acting from Wash
ington, sent identical kilograms to
President Walter Reuther of the
striking CIO United Auto Workers
and Henry Ford II. company
president.
CfteS "PuOilc interest,".
: In the light Of vital public in
terest." Mr.. Ching said the gov
ernment's mediation service would
enter the case unless there were
significant progress within
q reasonable period of time"
He did not specify what he
meant by reasonable"
The Federal mediation service
usually enters cases at the request
of one or both parties. This time
no request has been made.
Mr.. Ching commended both
sides for recognizing that they
have the primary responsibility
for peaceful relations and not the
government.
But he said the stoppage has
had such widespread effect upon
the delicate balance Of our Ma
tional economy that the parties
should recognize their public as
well as their private obligation to
settle the dispute with dispatch"
Can't Force Terms.
Mr.. Ching said:
Il should be failing in my duties
II did not state that unless signif-
icant progress is reported in pres
ent negotiations within a reason
able period of time, I shall be
obliged to request the parties to
meet with representatives Of the
service"
The agency has no power to
force either side to accept any par
ticular terms. It only mediates.
The Federal mediation chiefs
message arrived yesterday as the
UAW-CIO made a settlement pro-
posal In writing in the dispute over
production speeds.
Proposal Given TO Bugas.
The unions $4,000 workers at
Ford Rouge and Lincoln Mercury
went on strike on May 5 on a
charge of an unfair speedup in
the plants. The company denies
this.
Mr.. Reuther turned the JAWS
proposal over to John 8. Bugas,
head negotiator for the company.
Afterward Mr.. Bugas said 1t was
the unions first concrete pro-
posal." He asked time to study it.
It's contents were not disclosed.
The union, however, was said to
have worked 1t out with the aid
of Job time-study experts.
Mr.. Reuther described it as
realistic and down to earth"
Negotiations were scheduled to
resume at 2:30 pm. today.

Gated there Is no intention Of lift
ing the censorship. <
He said she has to do 1t TO
combat ''the slander which some
correspondents stationed in the
Soviet Union endeavor to supply
by order Of their employers.
Article 7 Of the draft prohibits
censorship in peace time except
for reasons OF national defense
and lays down strict regulations
to be followed when 1t is found
necessary.
Article IL. listing the limitations
governments may place on guar
antees Of freedom for correspon-
dents to seek and transmit news.
contains q paragraph reiterating
that no State may impose censor
ship in peace time on news leav-
ing its territory and then only In
accordance with article 7.
News Material Defined.
The draft defines news material
- information or opinion" trans
mitted IN writing or by telecom-
munications by information agen-
cies. which are defined as includ-
ing press. broadcasting. Aim.
television or facsimile organiza-
tions.
Correspondents" are employees
of such agencies regularly en-
gagged In the collection and re-
porting OF news material and
carrying valid passports or similar
documents.
Provisions Of articles Z through
6 pledge signatory countries to
expedite entry. residence and cir
culation of such correspondents.
In accordance with their laws:
guarantee admitted correspon-
dents against expulsion while en-
gagged In lawful exercise" Of their
duties. and pledge them equal
access to news and transmitting
facilities, at equal rates.
Article 7 bans peacetime censor
ship except for national defense.
Discriminat ation Banned.
Article 3 Is . most favored
agency" clause. outlawing discrim-
ination between news organiza-
tions serving any member country
and also bans "monopolistic prac-
tees" in relation to news reels.
Articles 8. 10 and IL lay down
the duty OF q contracting country
to accept "communiQues" from
other member states. correcting
news items they consider harmful
to their foreign relations or ma
tional prestige or dignity"
Members contract to deliver
such communioues TO the Of
Tending and other information
agencies In their territories. II
they don't. the aggrieved country
may ask the u. N. secretary gen.
eral to make delivery through his
information channels.
There is no compulsion. how
ever. for an agency itself TO dis
tribute the communioue and
thereby run the risk--as the
United States emphasized In COM
Imittee--of becoming . ''propa-
ganda medium" for q government
seeking to redress real or inagin-
airy injustices."

but there have been no signs thus
far that Congress is ready to take
that remedy.
An economy drive got under
way about 10 days ago when the
Senate sent the Labor and Federal
Security supply bill back to its
committee for a S per cent cut.
Drive Slows.
A few days ago, however. this
drive was slowed when q similar
move failed against the Treasury
Post ONCE bill. Some observers
point out that efforts to cut each
bill separately will continue to
bring varying results, because the
functions Of some departments
throw more political fear into
lawmakers than others.
One new approach may be to
try to apply q uniform cut to the
budget as q whole after all Of the
money bills have gone through.

Atom Partner Talks
Violate Agreement,
Hicken|ooper Says
BY the Associated Press

Senator Hickenlooper, Re-
publican, of Iowa, today accused
the Truman administration of
violating an agreement with the
Senate House Atomic Energy Com
mittee.
The Iowa lawmaker fired the
charge in commenting on Under
secretary Of State Webbs an
nouncement that the United States
may revive its wartime partner
ship with Great Britain and
Canada in atomic research.
Mr.. Webb's statement was the
first official use Of the word
partnership" in outlining the
goals of the three-poWer talks on
atomic energy. He said at a news
conference that good progress
is being made toward that end.
The Undersecretary also said
that any such cooperative ar
rangement for research would
require congressional approval.
Discussion Called Violation.
Senator Hickenlooper, a men,
ber of the Joint Atomic Commit
tee, told a reporter that he
considers even discussion of the
partnership idea at the American
Britain Canada conferences "a
direct violation of the understand
ing the committee had with the
State Department and the admin
istration.'
Senator Hickenlooper said there
had been a complete understand
ing that the partnership issue
would not be discussed with the
British and Canadian representa-
tives until there was clearance
first by the congressional COM
mittee. He added there has been
no such clearance.
Mr.. Webb made 1t clear at his
news conference that the State
Department intends to keep the
committee informed regarding the
A-B-C discussions. He said fur
ther talks among the three gov
ernments will be held more or
less intermittently."
Senator Hickenlooper cut loose
at the administration as the joint
committee arranged to consider a

charges against the Atomic Ener-
gy Commission.
Decision Expected Today.
The three Republican lawmakers
voiced the demand when the
committee met yesterday to re-
view a proposed report which
would clear Chairman David E.
Lilienthal and the other Acc
members of the mismanagement
accusation by Senator Hicken-
looper.
The intended report was draft

Senator Hickenlooper has insisted
the investigation has not been

REA Works For Chueiok Power

H. G. Bryan, Alaskan repre- sentative of the Rural Electrifi- cation Administration, and members of the board of direc- tors of the Matanuska Electric Association, met at Chugiak last Friday evening to discuss the eX- tension of MEA lines to Chugiak.
 REA is asking permission for a budget adjustment to permit use of funds already allocated to construct the necessary lines, Mir. Bryan said. If approval is granted, IF miles of line will be built to add 55 new consumers to the Valleys electrical coop.
 Asked when work would start, MT. Bryan replied that We will do everything possible to electri- fly Chugiak this summer" The headquarters approval and se- curing of scarce materials are two hurdles which must be cleared before work is started.

Athletes Will
 Relocate Reno

Transplanting Reno north to the Matanuska Valley will be the final athletic endeavor of the year for the men and women of Palmer's Shamrocks and Rock cts, local basketball squads. The geographic upheaval is tenta- lively planned for May 28, when Valley residents will enjoy a Night in Reno" in their own Palmer Gym.
 A Reno of the widest days of the wild, wild west will appear that night. Roulette, fan-tan, craps, wheel of fortune and sim liar games of skill will appear in gymnasium booths, where house men will labor nightly to sep arate gamesters from their dol lars Gall phoney.
 A taxi dance will be an added attraction. Dance hall girls, re- cruited from Rocket ranks, may be claimed as partner by anyone who purchases his ticket
 A marriage mill and divorce court will operate side by side all evening long. For a price, any tWoSonle can become singles, or any lonely heart can acquire a partner-if the price is high enough, more than one. A sher- if will be on hand, to see that fun seekers conduct their rois- tering in an orderly manner. Anyone who doesn't will be then be haled before a court and sep arated from still more of his dollars.
 To add final fillip to the eve ming, scarce food items will be auctioned hourly. Prices are eX- pected to range upward into the thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars (all phoney) when sides of bacon and hams go on the block.
 As planned at present, the Night in Reno" will complete the Valleys Colony Day cele- bration, with a percentage of the evenings proceeds going to the Colony Day Fund. The rest of the profits will go to keep the Shamrocks and Rockets solvent, and it is hoped will serve as treasury neStegg for the athletic association that is expected to be organized soon.
