Mr.. Lie said last night hi
thinks progress toward a cease.
fire in Korea has been 'promis-
ing"
The secretary-general issued Q
statement to newsmen after two
days filled with conferences with
U. N. delegates, secretariate Of
ficials, and after noting reports
from Moscow and Washington.
In response to questions about
Developments. Mr.. Lie issued this
three-point statement:
II think the progress so far to-
ward a cease-f1re in Korea has
been promising. OF course. can
make no predictions at this stage,
I hope very much, however, that
lit will be possible to move for
ward. carefully, but as rapidly as
possible In the next few days.
II have long believed and
stated that the best chance of
bringing to an end the fighting in
Korea lay in the negotiation of
a purely military cease-f1re and
truce or armistice by the respec-
tive military commands.
Authority Seen for Truce.
Il am of the opinion that the
unified command is authorized
under the resolutions of the Sc
curity Council to conduct such
military negotiations on behalf
Of the United Nations, leaving po-
litical questions to be negotiated
later in or under the authority of
the appropriate organs of the
United Nations"
The Russians have suggested
that the commanders in the field
work out an armistice.
Sources familiar with Soviet
policy said here a cease-f1re could
be arranged easily, but that a
political settlement would take
longer, perhaps even years. They
expressed belief that the political
problems might be broadened to
include even such matters as the
Japanese peace treaty.

Union Fined $500,
7 Officials jailed in
Virginia Ferry Strike
By the Associossd Press

NORFOLK, Va, June 29.-The
union representing striking en-
ployes of the Virginia Ferry Corp.
has been fined $500 and two of
its local officers have been ordered
jailed for failing to obey a court
order banning the strike.
Judge j. Hume Taylor OF the
Norfolk Law and Chancery court
ordered Local 333-B, United Ma
rine Division. of the International
Longshoremen's Association, AFL,
to pay the fine. The locals presi-
dent, H. L. Eyerton, was fined
$1,000 and sentneced to 10 days
in jail. The locals secretary,
w. l.. Owens, was fined $750 and
sentenced to five days in jail.
The union told the court it
would appeal his decision.
Had Issued Injunction.
Judge Taylor had Issued an in
junction forbidding the union to
strike against the ferr. company
until all provisions of the Vir-.
giraia Public Utility Labor Act are
complied with-including the pro-
vision calling for a five-weekI
strike notice when negotiations
fail. The union notified the Cover
nor it would strike July 81, then
jumped the gun and walked out
a week ago today. The company's|
ferries link the Hampton Roads
area with Virginia's Eastern
Shore.
Company Attorney Barron F.
Black and Attorney General j.
Lindsay Almond, jr., asked for al
$4,000 fine and jail sentences for
Mr.. Everton and Mr.. Owens. Mr..
Almond suggested six-month Jail
sentences.
Mr.. Black contended the union
officers were not "penitent" and
made no effort to purge" them
selves of contempt. He said the
strikers showed no regard for thel
public welfare in tying up service
Challenges Constitutionality.
Union Attorney Sidney H. Kel-
sey argued that the labor law un-
der which the injunction was is
sued is unconstitutional because it
denied workers the right to strike.
"a special three-judge Federal
Court will hear arguments on the
legality of the law at a later date.) +
Mr.. Kelsey said the only issue is
whether the two union officials
inStigated the strike. He con-
tended the walkout was the re-
suit of "the free will" of the
strikers-and did not come on or
ders from their leaders.
MIR. Almond told the. court that
the law must be considered valid
until court holds it otherwise,
that it was the duty of the union
to obey the Injunction, and that
the concerted walkout of employees
with the knowledge and apparent
consent of their leaders amounted
to a strike.
The State of Virginia seized the
struck company Tuesday and is
operating one ship between Little
Creek and Kiptopeke on the East
ern Shore with State personnel. +
The vessel makes two round trips
daily.

School Jobs Halted

Carpenters failed to report fol
work at two Arlington school con.
struction projects this morning.
E. j. Braun, assistant svperin-
tendent in charge of construction
said the carpenters refuse to work
because the School Board is not
donating to a unions health ano
welfare fund.
Mr.. Braun said he was Informed
last night by the State Superin-
tendent Of public construction
Dowell j. Howard, that the board
cannot appropriate money to this
fund. The carpenters decision te
stay away from work apparently
was made before the State SUPER
intendent obtained a ruling on
the issue from the Virginia attor-
ney general, j. Lindsay Almond
jr., Mr.. Braun said.
The two projects affected are
the 100000 warehouse remodeling
job on North Quincy street to pro-
vide more classrooms for Wash
ington-Lee High School and re-
modelling of the old CherrydaIe
School at 300 Lee highway, which
would add four classrooms.

contributions was made by the

He is reported to have turned
down a suggestion approved by
President Truman to speak dur

that this might make him appear

Secretary of State Acheson said
today that it is "in a literal sense

Macarthur to attend the con-

This is not because the United

to issue such an invitation, but
because the General feels that
since he is not officially a member
of the United States delegation he
could not appropriately appear in
the absence of direct invitation
by the peace conference itself

munist charges border on the RI
diculous.
The broadcast asked:
why are the United Nations
delegates assigned to an armistice
mission constantly forced to divert
their attention to the question oi
armed personnel in the conference
area?"
The broadcast traced the history
OF incidents within the neutral
zone and answered it's own ques-
ton:
1T is now quite obvious that
Kaesong was picked (by the Com
munists as a negotiating site) in
order to intimidate the UNC

any quarter that progress hac

main issue.

Raise for D. {. Police,
Firemen, Teachers
Cut From Federal Bill
House Civil Service Group
Agrees on Separate Action
On Jurisdiction Grounds
By Joseph Young

The House Civil Service Com
mittee today eliminated the Dis
trict's police, f1remen and school
teachers from the provisions from
its $400 Federal pay raise bill.
Due to a question of jurisdic-
tion, the Civil Service group de-
cided it would be best to allow the
House District Committee to han
die the measure for the police,
firemen and school teachers.
Representative Miller, Demo-
crat. of California, acting chair
man of the Civil Service group,
said he had been assured by mem
berS of the House District Com
mittee that the committee would
take pay raise action of behalf of
these employees very soon.
Jurisdiction Challenged.
The House Civil Service Com
mittee had included police, fire.
men and school teachers in it's bill
because it felt that this would
expedite matters for these en-
ployes.
However, several members of
the House District Committee were
resentful of this, charging that
the civil service group had no
jurisdiction in this matter. These
members had planned to raise a
point of order when the bill came
up for action.
There are approximately. 5000
District police, firemen and school
teachers.
Final Approval for Report.
The committee at today's execu-
tive session gave final approval to
the report accompanying the $400
pay raise measure. This was only
a formality, because several weeks
ago the committee approved a $500
raise for Federal and District gov
classified employees. The
committees action regarding po-
lice. firemen and teachers does not
involve Federal and District gov
classified employees.
Committee members said they
hoped to get the approval Of the
House Rules Committee for House
action on the classified and postal
pay bills as soon as possible after
the House reconveneS September
IL, Senate action on pay legisla-
ton also is not scheduled until
after Labor Day at the earliest.
