Meeting Friday On Gas Company Act Pact With Union Runs Out Nov. 6. HAMMOND, Ind. W — Officials of the Northern Indiana Public ServjrtsQt. and the United Mine Workers union’s catch-all District 50 today planned a meeting Friday over differences which could . lead to a strike when a unioncompany contract runs out Nov. 6. About 2,000 employes, representing about 90 percent of the company’s service and maintenance workers, would be involved in the walkout. The utility covers the northern third of the state. A full-scale walkout could tie up power and gas service in the area. Both union and company officials said they were “optimistic" over the possibility of a settlement. They refused to reveal the exact nature of the contract dispute. A company spokesman said he thinks there is a good chance the union will accept “a substantial offer made by the company.” But he said if there is a strike "we will do everything possible to maintain gas and electric service to our customers.” No Cooperation OLYMPIA, Wash. —(Wl) — An annual picnic here was spoiled by the first rainstorm in 31 days.
