ADDITIONAL VOICES NEEDED FOR MINSTREL SHOW CHORUS GROUP

There are still few openings for women's voices and several for men in the recently formed Kwanis Minstrel Show chorus group, Hugh Johnson, production manager announced this week.
 Rehearsals are being held each Tuesday night at 8 pm. in the music room at the Palmer School. Anyone interested in joining the chorus is invited to attend, John- son said.
 Change Date

Ship Union Members
Told 10 Prepare for
FuI|-FIedged Strike
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, June 18.-East
and Gulf Coast seamen today
were advised to prepare for a
full -fiedged strike and picketing
of waterfront docks.
Joseph Curran. president of
the CIO National Maritime
Union, said the present mo con-
tract-no work" walkout proba-
bly, would be made IAN actual
strike with picketing" this aft
ernoon.
So far, Mr.. Curran had avoided
calling an actual strike in the
deadlocked negotiations with
shipowners, but the growing
walkout threatens to tie up so
per cent of American shipping
on East and Gulf Coasts.
Mr.. Curran said today the
unions national council proba-
bly, would declare an official
strike.
Plan Rejected, He Says.
He claimed the union offered
employers a proposal last night
which could have been the
basis for settlement of the whole
dispute" but pressure from one
employer faction caused its re-
lection.
Mr.. Curran gave no details of
the offer.
THE situation is tightening
up" Mr.. Curran said. "Ships
are being tied up in all ports
as they arrive"
AS many as 750 vessels and
1000 crewmen may become in
volved.
The union and management
committee-representing 80 ma
jor operators-remained dead
locked over new contract terms
mainly concerning higher wages.
Military CargOes Move.
Mr.. Curran said yesterday that
nothing, but nothing, is moving,
and nothing will move until a
contract is signed"
However, the union has been
working NMU-manned ships
carrying military cargoes. Also,
unaffected are foreign-flag ships
and American vessels operated
by seamen belonging to other
unions.

Parcel Post Limits,
Not Higher Rates,
Worry Retailers

The 36 per cent increase in
parcel post rates, approved yes
terday by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, does not
worry Washington retailers, but
the fact that they are still barred
from using parcel post for many
| packages. does.
Through trade organizations,
the retailers have long contended
that parcel post should be self
sustaining and therefore have
not opposed an increase in rates.
But they have been strongly
opposed to Public Law 1879, which
in 1851 reduced the limits on
shipments between first-class
post Offices to 20 pounds from
the previous 70 pounds. The
higher limitations were not
changed for post Offices other
than first class.
AS result city stores could
no longer ship or receive any
package of more than 20 pounds
by parcel post unless it came
from or was bound for a second,
third or fourth class post Office.
Many shipments had to be ex-
pressed at much higher rates.
Retailers have contended that
this puts them at an unfair COM
petitive disadvantage with stores
in smaller communities and have
urged a return to uniform pack
age limitations. This could be
done by repeal of Public Law
1879.
Postmaster General Summer
field as yet has made no move
toward repeal of the law, nor has

Office Committee of which Rep
reSentative Reese, Republican, of
Kansas, is chairman.
Trade association executives
today said they believed Mr.. ices

Federal mediators were hoping
to get both sides together today,
but thus far have reported no
progress in ironing out the dis
pute.
More Than go Ships Idle.
Meanwhile, more than go
ships-including the liner United
States-remained at dockside.
The union was reported seek
ing a 5-to-7 per cent wage in
crease for seamen working pas
senger and dry cargo vessels, and
a 25 per cent increase for tanker
crewmen.
The present base pay for
able bodied seamen is $302.32
monthly. A company spokesman
has said the average seaman. in
cluding overtime pay, now earns
a total of $465 a month.
The union also has demanded
a boost in the hourly overtime
rate, currently $1.87.
