-Shipowners today accepted a
proposal of Secretary of Labor
Goldberg for a 60-day truce in
the national maritime strike
but the striking unions did not
Immediately give their decision
on the matter.
Acceptance of the truce plan,
which included the appoint
ment of a committee to work
out a strike settlement, was
voiced by the shipping COM
panies shortly after Federal
mediators had met with rep
resentatives of three of the six
striking unions.
None of those involved in the
mediator-union parleys would
comment on the result OF the
talks.
without Qualification
In a statement, the operators
said they accepted without
qualification the proposal that
all issues in the dispute in the
maritime strike be submitted
to a fact-finding board ap-
pointed by the President" as
outlined in the Goldberg pro-
posal.
The mediators' discussions
were with leaders of the pow
erful National Maritime Union
the organization of Masters
Mates and Pilots, and the
American Radio Association
Three other unions also are in
volved.
The eight-day strike has had
a sweeping effect on American
vessels and commerce, anc
threatens even more drastic
results.
There was a general expec-
tation that if the truce pro-
posal is not accepted, the ad-
ministration of President Ken
nedy would seek Taft-Hartley
law injunction to halt the
three-coast tieup.
Mediator Holds Talks
The talks on the truce plan
here were set up by William E
Simkin, director of the Federal
Mediation and Councillation
Service.
President Kennedy is ready
if the striking unions and in
dustry agree, to name a three
man committee to weigh all
issues and produce a recon-
mended solution.

Deer Hunting
Doesn't PAY:
just Reverse

1t doesn't pay to hunt deer in
Montgomery County.
In fact, since the county
doesn't have an open season for
deer, it often works the other
way around. The hunter has to
pay.
That's what two Virginia men
found out this week in Rock
vile Peoples Court. They were
fined $500 each.
James w. Fisk of Arlington
and Vernon Cockrille of Hern-
don were arrested January 3
on Watkins Island, in the Poto-
mac River near Seneca, by
Game Wardens Henry Hough
and Richard w. Jacques.
They were sentenced by
Judge John B. Diamond, III,
either to pay the fines or to
serve 80 days in Jail and pay an
additional $50 each for hunting
without a nonresident license.
The two pleaded guilty to the
charges.

The camp also gives these
children the feeling that the

Council
Restores
Property

The County bought a nice
house and 1000 square feet for
S1056 in 1857 and just realized
it. The former owner just found
out too.
1t happened like this:
Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph p. Gil
bala, 7414 Arlington I'd, Be-
thesda, sold to the County what
they thought to be eight feet of
the front yard which extended
for 60 feet along Arlington I'd.
This much was needed by the
County for the widening of the
street.
Everything was routine. At
least, everyone come cite d
thought it was.
The option was signed and
the County picked it up. And
for some reason, the words got
mixed up and the County be-
came the owner of all the Gil
bala property and everything
on it.
The years went by. Then the
bulldoZers came. Mr.. Gibala
looked at the legal papers and
received a shock. Something
was wrong. His property was
gone. But it was soon straight
ened out in Rockville.
The County Attorney, Alfred
H. Carter, prepared a resolution
and Tuesday the County Coun-
Gil took a quick look at the mix
up and agreed to return Mr.. Gil
bala's property to him.
All is well that ends well.
