retroactive to May 1 and insisted its present contract ‘froze wages until April, 1942. The NDMB opens hearings on the dispute Monday. The Bohn company produces nearly all bearings needed in bomber construction.
Another strike threat faded last night when representatives of the A. PF. of L. Machinists Union and the Consolidated Aircraft Corp. at San. Diego, -Cal.,, agreed on a contract while union. members were taking a strike vote. .The agreement will be submitted to a union vote tomorrow. The union claimed 7500- members among the 16,000 employees of the company, which holds warplane contracts totaling 700 .million dollars and manufactures huge, four-motor bombers for the United States and Britain. .The C. I. O. Steel Workers Organizing Committee today offered a union-management co-operation plan and arbitration of its contract demands in order to avoid a work stoppage at Pittsburgh propeller plants here of the Curtiss-Wright Corp The Mediation Board, bulwarked by strong Congressional sentiment for anti-strike legislation, began operating on a policy of demanding back-to-work agreements before negotiating issues in defense strikes. “Strikes in defense plants where the dispute is before the Board are
[clearly in’ ‘violation of President .| Roosevelt’s emergency orders for un-
interrupted production,” a Board official said. The Inglewood and Cleveland - strikes both were called while the disputes were before the NDMB. Senate to Act Today
The Senate was expected today to clarify the power of the President to take over plants where strikes or lockouts threaten to delay production by an amendment to the Selective Service law. . Harvey Brown, Machinists’ Union president, called the union’s executive council to meet in Washington tomorrow to consider ending the San Francisco strike, which has held up work on half a billion dollars worth of ships. President Roosevelt said that Mr. Brown had . promised to ask the council to authorize.termination of the strike in all 11 shipyards, although ‘only one yard's dispute is before the NDMB. Senator Tom Connally (D. Tex.), acting chairman of the Senate Committee ' Investigating National Defense, announced today that the names of striking San Francisco machinists have. been turned over to Selective Service officials to determine whether any of them had been granted drait deferment. Strike - leaders at the North American plant faced discipline not only by the Army managers of the plan but by the international union as. well. ‘Richard T. Frankensteen, U. A. W.-C. 1. O. national aircraft director, said that the local would
be completely reorganized and “irresponsible” officials purged. Members of the negotiating committee have already been suspended. At the same time, however, Mr. Frankensteen . described the wage demands of the Inglewood workers as “entirely fair and just” and said he would himself head the new union negotiating committee which will resume negotiations over demands for a 75-cent hourly minimum instead of 50 cents and a 10 per cent increase for other workers. The Alcoa and Bohn strikes had threatened to close plane factories all over the ‘nation. - Edward T. Cheyfitz, executive secretary of the Die Casting Workers, left Washington by plane to urge Cleveland workers to accept the peace formula. The union's regional director, Alex Balint, yesterday testified before the Dies Committee and denied he was a Communist, A WPA worker and a steel worker had told the Committee that Mr. Balint had asked them to join the Communist Party. - The Committee was to hear, further evidence today, in the face of union charges that it had rifled “personal effects” of union representatives sent to negotiate with the Mediation Board. The aluminum company strike at Cleveland was attended by a walkout- of some 480 workers of the Lamson. & Sessions Co. plant, in the same city, which makes airplane parts. and other defense materials. The strikers, members of the U. A. W.-C. I. O., demanded wage increases, vacations and safety devices in the plant, which virtually was paralyzed by the walk-out.
Wife Angered By Apings of Hitler
NEW YORK, June 11 (U.P.).— Supreme Court Justice Charles W. Froessel considered today whether a husband's imitations of Adolf Hitler gave a wife ground for separation. Mrs. Stella Peters of Astoria charged Herbert Peters, 36, a New York Athletic Club waiter, with cruelty. She said he would daub his upper lip with burnt cork, pull a lock of hair over his forehead, give stiff-arm salutes in the Nazi manner and remark that Hitler would “rule the world.” Mr. Peters, who counter-charged his wife with abandonment, said his imitations were intended to ridicule Hitler and had made his guests laugh. Mr. Peters, the court was told, is a native of Germany; his wife was born in France,

URGES SHRINE UNITS BUY DEFENSE BONDS
william C. Fitzgibbons of the U. S. Treasury Defense Saving staff pointed out advantages of the.new Defense Savings Bonds as investments for Shrine Temples, particularly for the Shrine Hospital funds, in an address at the Imperial Session yesterday. He asked the Shrine, as a national organization, to indorse the program and recommend that local Shrines follow suit. “Today throughout the length and breadth of Continental Europe, there are no meetings of Shriners,” he said. “Masonic fraternities have been disbanded and members have either been fined or put in jail; but your Government determines that those - conditions shall never come to America and that our rights to work together, meet together and play together shall not be destroyed.” Mr. Fitzgibbons praised the Shrine Hospitals as an example of democratic charity.

RULES ABC PERMITS GOVER DANGE RIGHTS
Taverns having State dancing permits do not have to buy additional City dance permits but are subject to some municipal regulations, Attorney General George N. Beamer has ruled. The opinion was given at the request of Hugh A. Barnhart, State Excise Administrator, who said tavern owners and City officials had raised the question all over. the state. Taverns selling alcoholic beverages are required to buy special State permits at $50 annually if they have dancing in their establishments under the 1941 Stout Liquor Law. Mr. Beamer’s opinion asserted that the State has exclusive licensing power over taverns but that City officials could enforce certain regulations provided in City ordinances.
