Hinges on Talk
Goldberg, Union
Discuss Late Offer

Negotiators met again at the
Labor Department today with
rising hope that they can
thwart a strike threatening OPP
erations of Trans World Air
lines.
Labor Secretary Goldberg
sounded the optimistic note
early today after the Flight
Engineers International Asso-
citation had taken a long look
at Government proposals for a
Settlement.
Although Mr.. Goldberg re-
fused to discuss terms of "a
complete set of recommends
tons" offered just before a
pm. strike deadline yesterday
there was evidence both sides
were studying it carefully.
Noting there had been prog
ress, Mr.. Goldberg expressed
hope I'VE can conclude by late
afternoon"
New Session Called
Union officials asked for a
recess at 1870 am. to sound
out local chapters on their
attitudes toward the proposals.
Mr.. Goldberg called the parties
back into session at 10 am.
Meanwhile, President Ken
nedy invoked the Railway
Labor Act to provide a 60-day
cooling off period and prevent
a strike of 10000 Transport
Union Workers against Ameri-
can Airlines. They had threat
ened to walk off the job at
midnight Friday.
The cooling off period pro-
vides time for a fact-finding
board to hold hearings and rec
ommend terms for a settlement.
The laSt-minute move by the
Labor Secretary and his team
did not entirely offset the eff
fects of the impending strike.
At airportS in several cities
pickets began marching when
word of the poStponement came
too late.
This delayed some flights for
as long as two hours. TWA
also reported hundreds of res
ervations were cancelled as the
scheduled strike time neared.
