Tear Gas Breaks Up
Strike Disorders at
Bell Aircraft Plant
BY the kssoeiotsd Press

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. o.
Tear gas bombs today broke up a
ock-throwing crowd of striking
union men at the Bell Aircraft
Corp. plant after non strikers had
attempted to cross an all-woman
picket line.
The strikers dispersed after dep
uty sheriffs hurled the bombs.
1t was the first use Of tear gas
in the 16-weeks-old strike which
has been marked by several out
breaks of violence.
The deputies, numbering over
100, had ranged themselves across
the highway in front of the plant
to stop crowd of nearly 200 DEM
onstrators seeking to halt the non
strikers.
The bombs were fired about 10
minutes after three strikers
attempted to cross the all-woman
picket line.
The non-strikers were set upon
by the women pickets. The wom-
en- brandished cardboard placards
fastened to light sticks.
As the deputies rushed to break
up the melee, many strikers and
union supporters entered the fight.
After 1t subsidized, several per-
sons were led away by deputies.
The new outbreak followed a
company announcement that it
had rejected an offer of a new
scheduled mediation meeting.
Until the union reverses its
arbitrary and unreasonable po-
sltion." a company official wired
State and Federal mediators yes
terday. further attempts at medi-
alton will be futile. until such
time. we deem it inadvisable to
attend any. further meetings"
State and Federal mediators
had invited Bell management and
leaders of the striking union, UAW
Local SOL, to a session Friday
for the purpose of bargaining out
the terms of a labor-management
contract" ..
Local sol said it would send
representatives. Negotiations with
the mediators collapsed last week.
The strike began June 13 over
wages and pensions. Bell refused
10-cent boost in wages it said
averaged $1.78 an hour.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, April
1.-Tanjug, official Yugoslav news
agency. reported today that Bull
garia has arrested about 100 per-
sons-some in high government
positions-in a breakdown on a
spy ring.
The dispatch denied that the
spy group was linked to Yugo-
slavia. The story connected the
spying to espionage activities of
"imperialistic" countries.
(There has been no report
from Bulgaria about the round
up referred to in this dispatch.
Yugoslavia is on poor terms

The story said Traiche Kostov
who has been first vice premier
sbf Bulgaria in charge of economic
affairs, was said to be involved"
in the case. 1t said Kostov has
been expelled from the Communist
Politburo in Bulgaria and is under
house arrest.
Economic Squeeze Charged.
Meanwhile, Yugoslavia accused
Russia of putting an economic
squeeze on her.
The charge yesterday was cou-
pied with a firm assertion that
Yugoslavia had as much right to
trade with the West as have other
Eastern European. countries.
The Soviet Union also was ac-
cused of using the economic
squeeze in an attempt to oust
Premier Marshal ,Tito's govern
ment, which was thrown out Of
the Cominform last year.
Yugoslavia has rallied at hel
Cominform neighbors often, but
this was the first time she has
made sNch a direct accusation
against Russia.
Both charges were made in the
newspaper Borba, mouthpiece of
the Communist government.
