DOCK STRIKE. ON HAWAIIAN ISLES ENDING
Work Order Awaits SetIe- ment of Non- -Stevedo-
 ing Issues Involved
By DOUGLAS LOvELACE

HONOLULU, Oct. 7-tRAHawaii's docks, struck since May 1, may be humming again at a normal rate next week
 An agreement to settle the long and bitter dispute with a 14-cent hourly wage increase was reached only yesterday-159th day of the strike. The dock workers immedi- ately ratified it without a dissent ing vote.
 The only hitch to an immediate Eack-to- work order was the settle ment of non-stevedoring issues in ports other than Honolulu. That will delay the work order two or three days.
 Two negotiating teams of the parent union, the CIO International Longshoremen's and Warehouse mems Union, set out today to but ten up these issues.
 The settlement worked out by the union and representatives of the seven struck stevedoring firms was this:
 An immediate Accent hourly wage boost to the current s1.40. Eight cents of this to be retro active from March l through June 28.
 Another ' cents increase next March 1, the contract to run through June 15, 1851. Employers demanded the longer contract.
 The unions 2.000 dock workers struck for an increase of 32 cents The 14-celt figure was recom- mended June 28 by a special Hawaii factfinding committee. Employers reluctantly accepted it then. The union rejected it.

'5H0REM'EN HERE HELD
 GU|LTY,N NLRB
Board Holds Pitketing Ju- nedu Spruce Unfair
 Labor Practice

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-tR- An NLRB trial examiner held yes terday that Harry Bridges CIO- Longshoremen's Union was guilty of an unfair labor practice for de- flying a National Labor Relations Board order
 The Board had directed the un- ion to stop picketing the Juneau Spruce Corporation, at Juneau, AL aska, in jurisdictional dispute with the O-Woodworkers Union
 But the picketing continued, Ex aminer William R. Ringer found, and he said that was an unfair labor practice under the Taft Hart ley Act. General counsel Robert N. Denham of the NLRB obtain ed an injunction against the Bridg- es union to stop the picketing last May A.
 The two unions were contesting the assignment of longshore work by the Juneau corporation. The NLRB ruled last April l that the Woodworkers' union was entitled to the work.
 The unfair labor practice which Ringer said Bridges group com mitted arose from two sections of the Taft Hartley Act. One specifi- cally makes jurisdictional dispute an unfair labor practice and the other forbids a union from causing or attempting to cause" an em- ployer to discriminate against em- ployes on the basis of their union membership or lack of it, Ringer Said
 The examiners ruling becomes a board order unless contested with in 20 days.

10 YEAR FOR TOKYO ROSE;
 FACES FINE
Takes Sentence in Silence -"CouIdn't Believe If"
 -S10, 900 Fine

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 7.-tR- Tokyo Rose, who couldn't believe they would sent me to jail," today faced ten years in prison and a S10,000 fine in addition to the stig- ma of being a traitor.
 The diminutive former UCLA CO., ed whose real name is Mrs. Iva D'Aquino stood in abject silence as Federal Judge Michael J. Roche pronounced sentence.
 Shortly before the court pronoun- ced judgement yesterday Mrs. D'Aquino said:
 T couldn't believe they would send me to jail. I did everything I could for the Americans"
 The sentence appeared to stun the 33-year-old woman who stood with downcast eyes, body stiffly tensed and hands clasped behind her.
 Defense Attorney Wayne Collins said he would appeal and ask for bail for his client next week.
 Her husband, Felipe, sails for Japan today aboard the Pacific Far East Line ship Trade Winds
 Iva was convicted Sept. 29 of one count of treason: Broadcasting af- ter the battle of Leyte something like this
 Now you fellows have lost all your ships, you are really orphans of the Pacific. How are you going to get home?"
 The jury acquitted her of seven other counts of. treason.

NEW MOVE BY SOVIET
 (0MMIE5
Government for East Ger : many 10 Rival 3-Nation
 Sponsored Govt.
(By The Associated Press)

German Communists today pro- claimed a new government for East Germany to rival the West German Republic sponsored by the United States, Britain and France.
 The Soviet controlled German Peoples Council in Berlin voted un- animously to become the lower house of the German Democratic Republic" Previously this council was only a forum without legal powers.
 Although the Communists repre- sent their latest action as a step toward united Germany, Western observers said it's effect will be just the opposite. Creation of the Ger man Democratic Republic' of East Germany sharply divides Germany into two nations and provides an- other satellite for Russia.
 Diplomatic officials in Washing ton said the United States, Britain and France are considering adding their zones of Berlin to the West German Republic to counter the creation of the new Communist state.
 West German politicians at Bonn, their capital, have long wanted to incorporate the western part of Berlin, but the Western allies so far have refused permission fear ing such a move would antagonize Russia
 There has been intense political activity in the past week in the Russian zone preparatory to the announcement today by the Soviet controlled German Peoples Council that an East German government now exists. No elections were held.
 Washington observers said that because of this latest Russian poli- tical move, the Western allies have embarked on new tough-talking tough-acting policy that may make Berlin the center of their next &C., tion.
 U. s. Undersecretary of State Webb issued sharply -worded statement charging that the Soviet Union, having already reduced Eastern Germany to "an oppressive police state is now trying to set up "dictorial unrepresentative" government there.

Young Bishop Used 10 Mush;
 Too Expensive 5o Now Flies
 Own Plane 10 5000 A|askans

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 7-Rf- The youngest Bishop in the Pro- testant Episcopal church, who pilots his own plane over his vast dio- cese in Alaska, talks enthusiast ically about a job he finds both active and exciting.
 The Rt. Rev. William T. Cor don, Bishop of Alaska, is 3l and built like football player. He had to wait three months, after he was adjudged prepared, to be conse- crated as Bishop, because church cannons fix 30 as the minimum age.
 His work covers 5000 Indian, Eskimo and white communicants, two hospitals, l3 priests, numerous schools and lay workers. His ene- mics are tuberculosis, the demon rum, and the unsettled state of Alaskas postwar population. < Families of 10 and 12 keep house in one-room igloos," he said With the crowding, the TB. rate is fan tastic.
 Last summer one of our doc tors and I flew all over the diocese, trying out new T.B. vaccine that |may save thousands of lives" He said there is nothing unusual in his piloting his super Piper Cub plane.
 ALASKANS FLY MORE
 "Alaskans do more flying per capita than anybody else" he ex- plained. Besides, the dog team is expensive and outmoded. I used to travel 5000 miles in dog sled when I was priest at Pt. Hope, 400 miles north of Nome. But dogs eat 5 pounds of meat day.
 Winter flying is fine, but it's not good to venture out when the tenn perature gets under thirty below" Fp."The Alaskan frontier needs the church's settling influence Bishop Gordon declared.
 One of our hardest problems is the influx of Army and civilian workers he said. Away from home, they tend to let down. There's so little for them to do. No wonder every other building in Fairbanks. where my wife and I live, is bar" !"
 Liquor is the greatest single trouble-maker among Alaskas set tied Indians, in the Bishops opinion.
 TRIBES DRINK UP WAGES
 "Unscrupulous traders peddle it to the tribes, who can't resist, drink up their wages, and become easy victims to tuberculosis" said he. "As for the Eskimos, they live horderline existence, bound to the sea, in a struggle for survival" ]"
 Bishop Gordon went to Alaska from Virginia Seminary as a priest in 1943. He met his wife-to-be on the boat from Seattle. He feels definitely settled in his post.
 "Alaskans are real people-happy, free and easy" he declared. Its hard to get them into church the first time, but once they're in they're 100 percenters. No swank Easter Sunday Christians there.
 T really love Alaska-it repre- sents a tremendous challenge for our church. But we need volun- teers badly-footloose and fancy free young men who aren't afraid of hard work"

SCORE BY INNINGS
By JACK HAND

EBBETS FIELD, Brooklyn, Oct. 7-tR-Big John Mixes two-run single topped New York Yankee ninth inning explosion that barely survived a dying gasp double homer blast by Brooklyn today for 4-3 victory in the third World Series game.
 As result of the triumph, the Tanks now hold a 2-l edge in the best of seven series.
 Mize's blast off the screen atop the right field wall broke 1-i tie battle between Ralph France and Fireman Joe Page. As it turned out it wasn't enough to win. Jerry Coleman's single to center, back to back with Mize's blow, drove in the run that was to be the clincher on this murky day.
 ? HOMERS IN NINTH
 Taking 4-l lead into the last of the ninth, Fireman Joe was rid ing easy. but two homers ny Luis Olmo and Roy Campanella suddenly erupted the calm.
 Needing only one run to tie, Bruce Edwards came up to pinch hit but took a third called strike from Page.
 Manager Casey Stengel had just been out to the mound. talking with his relief ace after Cam panella's homer but he decided to stick with Joe and he never made better move.
 Clmo's clout came unexpectedly with one out and nobody on. Then Page, who replaced starter Tommy Byrne in the fourth. whiffed Duke Snider. Cauoanella's blast, that just made the grade out the rail atop the left field wall, followed.
 The strikeout of Edwards wrap ped it up.
 Branca, pitching magnificently, had retired 13 men in succession from the fourth to the ninth when he hit rocky going.
 Jackie Robinson had just saved hit on a great glcyed hand play of Tommy Henrich's grounder. far to his left. There was one out and nobody on with the score tied.
 TROUBLE IS STARTED A base on balls to Yogi Berra on a 3-2 count started the trouble. When Branca retired Joe DiMag- gio on foul pop, it looked as though he was in the clear for thero were two gone.
 Rcf1by Brown sliced single to left and the bases were damned when Gene Woodling drew a pass, also on 3-2.
 Up came Mize, the 36-year-old ex-St. Louis Cardinal and New York Giant who was acquired by the Tanks in late season, from the Giants. Mize batted for hitless Cliff Mapes.
 Big lawn took ball, strike and then another ball. Branca's next pitch was clouted high into the screen.
 It was true-to-form perform ance by the Dodgers who hit 153 homers enroute to the National League flag but it seemed odd for the Ranks to be winning on singles while the losers hit three out of the lot.
 Page, of course. was the winning pitcher and Branca the loser.
