One man died. a. a , Orman shouted 'fdr the 400 other employes to get out of the plant. “It was a stampede” he said. “One whiff of that knocks you down.” Orman himself didn’t make it out under his own power. Firemen with gas masks dropped him and four other men overcome by the fumes from the plant. Francis Maben, 53, died. The others were hospitalized, Orman and Loyd Watkins, 31, in fair condition and Everett Murray, 19, and Ray Fisher, 43, in critical condition. Plant Manager D. G. Koenig said the three-inch round ammonia pipe probably was broken when a workman accidentally pushed a small fork-lift against it. Rolvaag Winner In Minnesota Recount ST. PAUL, Minn. (UPD—Democrat Karl Rolvaag said today he is ready to “pick up my cardboard filing cabinet” and move upstairs into the Minnesota governor’s suite. But the short, baldish former lieutenant governor will have to wait until a three-judge tribunal formally declares him winner in the long-disputed election Thursday or Friday. And he might have to wait another month if GOP incumbent Elmer L. Anderson appeals to the state Supreme Court. The state canvass report after the Nov. 6 election declared Anderson the winner of the state's first four-year governor term by 142 votes. But Rolvaag demanded a recount. He led in the recount by 91 votes. He sweated out the recount in a capital basement “broom closet” office. The recount tribunal all but declared Rolvaag the winner late Tuesday when it: —Denied a Republican motion to . dismiss the recount on the grounds that it was no more accurate than the canvass. —Asked Rolvaag’s attorney to prepare a tentative draft of an order for judgment to declare Rolvaag the winner. Judge Sidney Kaner of Duluth, a member of the panel, said “It would seem apparent from the evidence that Rolvaag would be entitled to a certificate of election.”

Striking Printers Near To Deadline NEW YORK (UPI) — Striking printers moved closer today to a deadline of “several days" set by their international union leaders to end the stalemate in the city’s 103-day newspaper shutdown. Elmer Brown, International Typographical Union (ITU) president, was expected to return to the scene soon if striking Local 6 fails to reconsider its rejection of the compromise $12.63 package approved by the publishers. While no printer - publisher meetings were held Tuesday, negotiations continued with two other striking unions — the mailers and photoengravers. While agreement on these two contracts was considered important, the key to the over-all settlement was the next move of the printers. Brown earlier threatened the possibility of withdrawing ITU strike benefits and suggested that other unions involved in the strike might withdraw their support. Brown said he and other printer union leaders believed the compromise offer which was rejected by a 64-vote margin on Sunday and the best that couW be obtained at this time. Local 6 President Bertram A. Powers said Tuesday that while any member of the union could get up at next Sunday’s regular monthly membership meeting to demand a new vote on the settlement offer, he would not ask for a reversal of last Sunday’s balloting. “And I have no intention of moving for a referendum,” Powers said. 3 Pilot Uninjured As Small Plane Crashes DANVILLE, Ind.

Kennedy Winds Up Tour Today

SAN JOSE, Costa Rica (UPD— President Kennedy climaxed his historic visit to Costa Rica today with presidential meetings on how best to sped Central America’s economic progress and strengthen the area against Communist subversion from Cuba. The heads of state of six Central American countries who signed a declaration with Kennedy Tuesday night, were unanimous in their delight at a U.S. pledge of stepped up aid under the Alliance for Progress, but some were disappointed at the failure to obtain a promise for stiffer action against Fidel Castro's Cuba. Kennedy scheduled a series of meetings with each of the “decdents to put in motion the “declaration of Central America” pledging increased U.S. aid and new measures to halt the flow of men, money and propaganda from Cuba. The President planned to hop by helicopter from the meeting to the University of Costa Rica for a speech in late afternoon. From the university the chief executive will take a helicopter directly to El Coco Airport for the return to the United States. Three Objective* The official United States attitude was that the three-day conference of Kennedy and the presidents of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras and Panama had been a success. U.S. officials said the United States had three objectives, and | all of them had been accomplished; —To focus attention on the increased importance of the Central American nations. —To encourage increased economic integration of the region. —To study steps which might be taken to interrupt the flow of money, people and propaganda from Cuba into Central America. The visit, the first to Costa Rica by a U.S. president, was a personal triumph for Kennedy. He was acclaimed by Costa Ricans wherever he went and his car was nearly mobbed at times. In signing the declaration, the presidents agreed to hold a highlevel conference among the Central American states in April to “develop and put into immediate effect common measures to restrict the movement erf their nations to and from Cuba and the flow of material, propaganda and funds from 4hat country.” Stricter Controls Specifically the declaration mentioned stricter controls on travel to and from Cuba as a means of curtailing “Soviet imperialism” in Latin America. “Additional sea and air surveillance and interception within the territorial waters will be worked out with special cooperation from the United States,” the declaration said. ....
