The COPE screening committee

Additional endorsements included

Freebourn and John G. Harrison.
The only Republican to appear be-

Labor market activity appeared
slower last week than a year ago in
the construction and lumber indus.
tries, according to Chadwick Smith
UCC chairman. Construction hiring
leveled off in most major work areas
with few new hires. The lumber in
dustry was still in the grip of hard
economic forces. Two Kalispell saw
mills laid off their night shifts. The
major mill at Libby may be forced
to a four-day work week if market
conditions do not improve. A large
Livingston mill idIed for many weeks
has postponed recalling former en-
ployees for the time being. The 'tight
money policy of the Eisenhower Adj
ministration is principal cause of
the industry's depressed condition.
Some brighter aspects included the
start of five million dollar addition
to a Billings shopping center and a
$4,000 expansion at the Bohemian
telephone building. A reported IL
million dollars in industrial construc-
ton was in progress at Missoula. The
reopening of Glacier Park and Vir-
ginia City provided hundreds of job
openings for seasonal service work
ers. Ten workers idled at gypsum
plant at Lewistown
a week before were back on the job.
A drop of 473 unemployment
claims last week brought claims be-
low the 5000 mark for the first
time in the past 40 weeks, Smith re-
ported. This left a total of 1897
Montanans still filing for

WOULD HANG LABOR, FARMERS
UNION FROM YARD ARM
The tone of the gong coming from
the Republican convention had a
familiar ring. Governor Aronson made
his attack on labor and Farmers
Union. Republican State Chairman
Mel Engles spoke of ultra liberal
factions who have captured the other
party.
Aronson made special reference to
labor's Committee on Political Edu-
cation (COPE) saying that top can
didates on the Democratic ticket are
the "hand picked candidates of the
Farmers Union and COPE".
Governor Harold Handley of In
diana, featured speaker at the
Wednesday night banquet, said ''pow-
erful pressure groups" and "appease-
ment of the radicals have brought
America to the brink of an even
more ominous situation than we faced
a century ago. The "ominous situa-
tom, Handley said, has been brought
about because, except for short
time, Democrats have had control
of Congress for % years.
The Indiana Governor said Eisen-
hower's $50 vetoes have been for
the purpose of keeping us from spend

Handley stressed Nixon's priceless
experience as the "co-pilot of the
Ship of State" of the present admin
istration as against youthful impul-
siveness or academic theory" in the |
presidency. ''This is no time for ex-
periments," he said.

adjectives characterized Republicans

Hints were let out today
that West Germany might fol-

Mayor Willy Brandt of West
Berlin dropped the hints at a
Socialist rally in Berlin. He
said moves were afoot in the
economic area (which would
not be without effect on the

The West German Foreign
Office declined comment on Mr..
Brandt's remarks but noted
that a delegation is due here
from Moscow this month to
negotiate a renewal of the
West German-Soviet trade
agreement that expires at the
end of this year.
InformantS said yesterday
when West Germany served
notice it was cancelling its
trade agreement with. East
Germany that more counter
measures can be expected I'M
less the Communists break
their squeeze on Berlin.
A refusal to renew the Bonn
Moscow trade agreement might
be one of these measures. Re-
liable informants said, however,
such an act had not figured in
the Western countermoves de-
bated earlier this week.
The Soviet delegation is due
here October II. 1t will seek to

In Icy Truck

DALLAS, Tex, Oct. l (AP).
-Milkman John Baker was
thawing out today. thankful
that two housewives heard him
yelling, had tools and knew
how to use them.
Mr.. Baker, 80, on a sunny
morning locked himself in his
refrigerated milk truck.

trapped man was dressed for
summer weather. And his
truck was almost sound-proof.
Nearby, Mrs. w. M. MiearS
was playing host to a neighbor.
Mrs. William Green. Their
sons were playing outside.
The mothers adjourned to
see about the youngsters.
1--WE heard a faint noise, sort
of like a clanking. And then
it seemed like we heard some
body yelling, very family" Mrs.
MiearS said.
Well, of course, the yelling
and clanking was coming from
Mr.. Baker. He used a bottle to
hit the side of the truck as he
yelled.
After he had cooled off in the
truck for about 20 minutes, the
two mothers discovered his
plight. With a screvdriver and
a couple of wrenches they took
the lock off the truck, since
the key was inside with Mr..
Baker.
The grin of the liberated
milkman was enough reward
for Mrs. Miears and Mrs,
Green, who patronize another

A final negotiation session
opened in bitter fashion at
midmorning today. Within
minutes, reporters could hear
loud, angry voices within the

made plain this afternoon that
nothing had occurred to ease
the situation.
The union and company are
seeking to write a contract to
replace a five-year agreement.
Under this, the union said,
production workers received
average pay of $3.50 to $40
an hour. The union demanded
31a per cent pay boosts during

leader if the party commits it

Mr.. Gaitskell is seeking a

The resignation threat is Mr..
GaitSkell's trump card. The
battered party appears to have

Even Mr.. Gaitskell's enemies

to dictate to him from the
wings until they can agree on
