Lawrence, the city's new chief executive, proclaimed a municipal emergency and ordered reserves of police and firemen on duty. \ With a cup of coffee steaming on his desk, Mayor Lawrence talked long and hard during the night with Washington. It seemed that Washington couldn't get it through its head that the first all-out power strike was being pulled in Pittsburgh. - Federal Money Sought In his declaration of an emergency, the mayor asked for a $25,000 fund. s vd “What is he going to do with that $25,000 in the dark?®.gcracked an official ; But the citizens didn't see much

step was doubtful as the union steadfastly refused to say whether its members would work for the government. When the strike reaches its full effect it will cut off power to more than 330,000 homes and 36,000 business houses. Factories were closed and street car service of the Pittsburgh Railways Co. was halted. Pickets began filing out of, the union hall before midnight as Association President George Mueller stuck firmly to the workers’ demands for an immediate 20 per cent pay raise to cover increased cost of living with later negotiations for an additional 15 per cent to compénsate for loss of overtime since V-J day. Asked by Federal Conciliator Charles Kutz if the union would consider a counter-proposal, Mr. Mueller’s reply was a flat “no.” Began Last August The union made its demands on the company last August.

‘The workers walked out in the face of urgent pleas by Gov. Edward Martin and Mayor Lawrence * which climaxed 48 hours of almost ceaseless effort to avert the walkout. Governor Martin sent telegrams tp | ceach of the 51 members of the ~“union’s’ general’ committee gsking “utmost efforts in preventing a cessation of the utility services rendered the public by the Duquesne Light Co.” “This is vitally essential to the health and safety of a million and a half citizens, including you and your loved ones in Allegheny and Beaver counties,” he said. Effects Far-Reaching The effects of the strike were almost beyond comprehension. Pittsburgh street car service was halted completely by the lack of power. Bus operations were curtailed because busses of of Pittsburgh Motor Coach Co. are seryiced by Equitable Auto Co. a Duquesne Light affiliate. Public schools closed because heating systems are controlled by electric thermostats. An acute gasoline shortage threatened because virtually all service station pumps are electrical. Milk supplies will be exhausted within a day if thé strike continues because of lack of power

The disaster control board met at 8 a. m. to ferret out any unauthorized drain on fuel and'electrical power—from steam generators eating up coal stocks. It was backed by a city nance providing for a $500 fine and a year in jail for wilful violation of its

rulings on borderline cases. Laundries Closed Churches were allowed to remain open as places of worship but not as places of assembly. Laundries were allowed to remain open. Places serving food and liquor continued to feed their customers but were forced to close their bars. " State and federal offices were not affected. If the crisis continues the federal reserve bank will be the only financial house to open tomorrow. All banking houses were closed today because of Lincoln's birthday. Subway service was reduced 20 per cent. This was accomplished on two divisions by lengthening the interval between trains and on the third (independent) by reducing the number of cars per train. The emergency order was issued at 10 p. m. last night, only a few hours after the 91 operators of the 400 idle tugs rejected a unionapproved proposal to submit the dispute to Edward F.

But in some areas in the city where there are no playgrounds, school children are playing in vacant lots or om sidwalks. Conditions here are worse. Many of the vacant lots are hazardous with broken bottles and rubbish.

Need Repairs Badly Because of limited forces, Mr. Brown said that the park department will not be able to get around to all these impromptu playgrounds, even by summertime.

It said tugs operated by ODT hauled 4,295,000 gallons of fuel oil yesterday, making a total of nearly 13,000,000 gallons in three days.
