New Union Dispute Threatens All West Coast Shipping

SAN FRANCISCO, (Ro = Rep reesentatives of the AFL Masters, Mates and Pilots Union and Ship owners will meet today in an eff fort to settle dispute that threat ems to affect east coast and foreign flag ships touching strike bound Pacific Coast ports.
 The IMP threatened to walk out after shipowners discharged all but the captain and the first mate on ships tied up by the 16- day-old AFL Sailors strike. The union contends its contract calls for the master and four mates to remain aboard, regardless of the strike.
 If the compromise fails, all ships, except tankers and lumber freighters, will be affected.
 At least 54 ships on the West Coast are tied up by the AFL Sail ors and no settlement of that walkout appears to be in' the making. The shipowners' Pacific Maritime Association refuses to discuss wage demands with union officials unless guaranteed one year contract with a no strike clause.
 Meanwhile the Navy announced at Pearl Harbor that tranSpOrta- ton of limited amount of food supplies, cattle and poultry feed on Navy ships has been author ized for Hawaii.
 Hawaii Gov. Oren E. Long had appealed to the Navy to author ize the shipments because of a "criticaI' food shortage existing in the islands.

By ROBERT B. TUcKMAN

KOJE ISLAND, Korea, (P) - Communist prisoners of war in compound " murdered IS fellow POWS in night of terror, then meekly surrendered to United Nations troops Wednesday for dispersal to smaller stockades.
 A leader of tough prison pen 66-holding 2,7OO North Korean officers and $50 enlisted men was shown the shambles of com pound 76 where the Reds resisted dispersal. But American guards said throughout the day they heard considerable hammering in 66, an indication the POWs were shaping crude weapons.

Taft Backers Named to Key Convention Posts
By JACK BELL

CHICAGO, (P)-Sen. Robert A. Taft has frightened control over Republican convention machinery with the apparent intention of fighting vigorously for the seating of southern delegates favorable to him.
 The top arrangement commit tees choice Tuesday of Gen. Mac Arthur as keynoter, and the selec- ton of Taft packers to fill other major convention posts, was die tated down the line by the Ohio ans camp.
 The action served notice on SUD- porters of Gen. Eisenhower, that there will be no quarter in the battle over disputed southern votes which may go long way toward determining the winner.
 The keynoter assignment for Macarthur, who has publicly backed Taft and has criticized Eisenhower, emphasized the no- compromise mood of the Ohioan's packers.
 While Macarthur is expected to make a party rallying speech without reference to any parti- cular candidate, some other con- vention officers selected by the arrangements group are in a posi- ton to make vital rulings.
 Walter Hallanan of West Vir- ginia, a T fit supporter, was chosen as temporary chairman of the convention until the perman- ent chairman, Rep. Joseph Martin of Mass, takes over. Martin is a rooter for MacArthur, although the general has said he isn't run ming.
 Sen. Eugene Millikin of Colo rado, a Taft delegate, was named to head the convention platform drafting committee.

Developments In Shipping Strike
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

New protests came from Alaska cities today over the shipping strike that has cut off Alaska Steamship Go. operations, while another shipping line reported if had available space on ships going to ports for the Anchorage-Fair- banks sector.
 Nome businessmen fired back at Harry Lundeberg, Sailors Union of the Pacific, for his questioning Tuesday of their sincerity in ask ing release of ship for Nome cargoes.
 Anchorage businessmen appeal ed to government officials to take action to cut short the strike. They contended it threatens the entire construction season in Al aSka.
 Meanwhile, E. A. Gardner, Seattle manager for Coastwise Lines, said his firms Liberty ships can carry more cargo to it's ports of call-Seward, Whittier, Valdez, Anchorage and Kodiak. Coastwise is not affected by the strike.
 Its ships do not call, however, at southeastern Alaska ports or at Nome.
 Gov. Gruening said in tele- phone report to Seattle from Ju- neau that the situation is rapidly becoming serious"
 Meanwhile, there were two other ship possibilities:
 l. The Berger Transportation Go. reported it is trying to charter a ship to operate to southeastern Alaska. It has operated small vessels to the territory in past years.
 2. Max Weisbarth, Seattle agent of the striking AFL Sailors Union, said he believes the union high command will grant permission for the freighter Coastal Monarch to call at Wrangell to pick up fro zen fish cargoes to avoid the dan ger of spoilage in that fire-dam- aged town.

Steel Strike:
 Senate Requests Truman Invoke Taft-Hartley Act

WASHINGTON, (P)-Top gov ernment officials said today Presi- dent Truman probably will turn now to the Taft-Hartley Law, which he loathes, in an effort to get the steel mills back into pro- duction.
 The Senate, unmoved by Tru- mans personal appeal for special seizure powers, held firmly against any alternative other than Taft-Hartley.
 After hearing him, irate Re- publican and Southern Democrat senators joined forces to write into the anti imitation Defense Production Act an official Gre quest" that Truman invoke at once the labor relations law he had just denounced as "unfair, harmful and futile"
 To use the Taft-Hartley Acts 9O-day anti-strike injunction pro- visions, Trum n contended, "Would be to take sides with the companies and against the work CTS"
 He hinted broadly there was no assurance the 65O,O0O striking steelworkers would obey an in junction-a statement which drew sparks from Taft and others as an ''invitation" to defy the law.
 The President told the lawmak- CTS the better way would be a plant seizure law under which the owners would "face the possibility of receiving something less than their normal profits and the workers will face the prospect of getting less than they think they are entitled to-"
 Within hours the Senate boWled over three plant seizure propos- als, two of which had tacit White House blessing, and spiked into the controls bill the request to use the Taft-Hartley law.
 The margins were decisive, but administration forces planned one last major effort today to put across a new seizure amendment. They conceded in advance they probably will take another beat ing.

 Re: Your statement to San Francisco press that Nome busi- nessmen are merely tools of Alas ka Steamship Co.,. frying to sway public opinion.
