Britain Gains Support Over Common Market BRUSSELS (UPI) — Britain gained support today from Common Market nations in its attempt to enter the European community over French opposition. There were definite signs of cracks in the front which the French have managed to maintain so far in the 15-month-old negotiations on Britain's application for Common Market membership. The split was centered on the feeling that Europe will survive French President Charles de Gaulle. Many European diplomats made it clear they felt De Gaulle was out of step in stating at a news conference Monday . that Britain must enter the trade group without any special considerations. Newspapers in Britain and on the Continent also disagreed with De Gaulle's objections. Talks Continue Negotiators from the six mar-

ket countries and Britain continued talks on tariffs for specific products today, while behind-the-scenes efforts were made to get France to ease its stand on Britain's application. The negotiators agreed to tackle the tariff problem and defer until Thursday talks on the controversial question of British agricultural subsidies. Representatives of West Germany. Belgium. The Netherlands and Italy expressed support for the British position. Luxembourg also was believed to take the same view against De Gaulle’s ’ stand. Seeks Special Conditions Britain hafe been seeking means to protect its farmers and Commonwealth trade in the event it . should join the European market. The British attempt to arrange special conditions was rejected by De Gaulle. Informed sources said Britain Tuesday it might be willing to compromise on the ag--1 riculture problem. They said Lord Privy Seal Edward Heath, Britain’s chief negotiator, told the . market council .Britain, was willing to reduce the transitional period for bringing its farm prices in line with those of the European community. The six market members have agreed to bring their agriculture prices in line by Dec. 21, 1969.

130,000 Workers Idled By Strikes

By United Press International More than 130,000 workers were idled across the land today by transit, waterfront, newspaper and other strikes. Millions of persons were affected. A million Philadelphia commuters had to find other means of transportation. In Kansas City, Mo., 100,000 bus riders faced a possible strike. Hundreds of thousands of persons still were without a local newspaper to read —in New York, after 40 days, and in Cleveland, after 47 days. An administration official hinted at possible White House intervention in the waterfront strike which paralyzed shipping from Maine to Texas. The 5,600 members of the Transport Workers Union AFL-CIO, struck against the Philadelphia Transportation Co. over management’s insistence on eliminating a “no-layoff” clause which permits dismissal only for incompetence. The strikers operate bus, trolley and subway-elevated lines. A factfinding committee of three federal circuit judges bowed out of the dispute and said it believed it could serve “no useful purpose.” Leaders of the Transit Workers Union were to meet today in Kansas City to decide whether to call a strike. Gov. John Dalton seized the transit company when workers struck 14 months ago, but the Missouri Supreme Court freed the firm Tuesday. The union has rejected a company offer of a wage increase of 15-cents an hour. Warns Port Negotiators Asst. Secretary of Labor James Reynolds told negotiators for striking longshoremen and the New York Shipping Association that he will ask President Kennedy to take action unless there is “sub-

Refleclorized Auto Plates Are Favored INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Local law enforcement officials, who complained that the small size of county identification number prefixes on the 1963 auto license plates are difficult to see. will get a chance to support new legislation increasing visibility. Commissioner Allen Nutting of the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles said he conducted his own experiment and found that not only the county number but the entire plate is hard to see at night at any distance that would benefit in law enforcement. “I think it is important to reflectorize the plates,” Nutting said. “We hope the 1963 Legislature will take steps to do this.” Nutting said he used a license plate which had been treated to reflect light and found it could be seen when the unreflectorized plates were invisible. Such plates are in use this year in St. Joseph, Madison, Hendricks, Bartholomew, Greene and Crawford Counties on an experimental basis. Nutting estimated it would cost an extra 10 cents if the background of a plate is reflectorized, and 2 cents if only the numbers are manufactured with the special paint. He said his department was able to make about $66,000 savings on plates this year as a result of shifting to a lighter metal and using plastic instead of paper envelopes. Despite these savings, Nutting said, the cost of plates has continued to mount The 1960 plates cost $357,365; 1961, $374,464; 1962, $406,500; 1963, $406,500. He said the department’s budget calls for 2,740,000 plates in 1964 costing $428,000 and in 1965, 2,877,000 plates, costing $450,000. These estimates do not include reflectorizing. Nutting said he felt it would require legislative approval to shift to reflectorized plates. At 10 cents a plate extra, the cost would be an additional $56,170 for the next two years. Former State Fair Board Head Dies PRINCETON, Ind. (UPI) — Lowell G. Taylor, 62, Owensville, president of the Indiana State Fair Board in 1957 and a member for eight years from 1952 to 1959, died today in Gibson General Hospital here. Taylor had been ill several months. A native of Marengo, he operated a farm west of Owensville, was a director of the Indiana Farm Bureau, assistant Knox County agricultural agent from 1929 to 1942 and before that a school teacher. 47 Workmen Killed When Lock Bursts NEW DELHI (UPI) — The air lock on a bridge construction pier burst today at Niraj in the state of Orissa, killing 47 workmen and jnjuring 62 others. Reports said the victims were working 60 feet underground unde 30-pound air pressure when the lock burst. They were scooping earth for a railway bridge at Niraj, about 200 miles southwest of Calcutta.

stantial progress” in negotiations today. The longshoremen walked off the job 24 days ago the moment an 80-day' Taft-Hartley "cooling off” period ended. Most of the 100,000 out of work are longshoremen, but others are truckers and seamen who refuse to cross picket lines. Shippers estimate the strike already has cost S6OO million. In New Orleans, La., the New Orleans Steamship Association filed charges against six International Longshoremen’s Association locals. The shippers accused the locals of refusing to bargain in good faith. A local president denied the charge. City officials said 75 cents of every New Orleans dollar comes from port operations and an extended strike would mean economic disaster. The longshoremen have demanded a 55-cent hourly package increase. They have been offered a 23-cent hourly package. Newspapers Shutdown Eight newspapers have shut down and a ninth has suspended publication in New York. Bertram A. Powers, head of an International Typographical Union local, led newspaper strikers and sympathizers in picketing New York Times offices. Cleveland Mayor Ralph Locher said “significant results” came from talks between the Newspaper Guild and the publishers of the morning Plain Dealer and afternoon Press. Progress also was reported in talks Tuesday involving the Teamsters, who went on strike Nov. 29, one day before the Guild. Members of nine unions made plans to start publishing a newspaper five times weekly starting Monday. The unions estimated a press run of at least 120,000 the first day.

Expert Asserts No Martians On Mars LOS ANGELES (UPD—A leading expert on Mars said today that interplanetary studies indicate that Martians, as imagined in science fiction, do not exist on the red planet. If there is any life there, Dr. Rodney W. Johnson said, “it is probably a low form of animal life or plant life that lives and then goes dormant in seasonal cycles. “The atmosphere and climate of Mars is not compatible with life as we know it,’’ said Johnson, head of General Electric’s interplanetary systems development at Valley Forge, Pa. “All information we have now does not support the belief that higher types of life exist on Mars,” he said. Johnson spoke on “The Terrain and Soil of Mars” to the nation’s foremost space scientists at the American Astronautical Society meeting here. He said he did not believe the famed canals of Mars were the ingenious work of Martian beings, as some scientists believe, but either an optical illusion or some form of geological process — probably the latter. “The quantity of water on Mars (there are no oceans) is not sufficient enough to supply canals of this size,” he said. Aspirin Is Aspirin Despite The Price WASHINGTON (UPI) — The American Medical Association confirmed today that aspirin is aspirin, despite the price. Sen. Pat McNamara, D-Mich., asked AMA spokesmen about aspirin during a hearing Tuesday by a special committee on aging. He said the committee had investigated aspirin prices and found that name brands sell for as much as 3% times the price of unknown brands. Oliver Field, director of the" AMA’s Department of Investigation said all aspirin must meet the same requirements in order to be sold, and people might as well buy the cheaper product. REPUBLICAN (Continued from Page One) reported out of committee. Rep. W. Wayne Townsend, DUpland, member of the State Budget Committee as well 'Bis the Ways and Means Committee, said he would “be happy to cooperate in writing a budget bill.” "I’m glad to see that we are going to have something to work with," he said.
