2 The Newt-Review, Roieburg, Pfhinninn To He-Throne 'King LONDON (AP) A broadcast over the Addis Ababa radio claimed today the rebel govern ment set up in opposition to Em peror Haile Selassie has been overthrown. The broadcast, heard in Nairobi, Kenya, said the announcement was made on orders of Maj. Gen. Merid Mengesha, who had been described as a traitor Thursday by a rebel-controlled station. The exact situation in Addis Ababa still was obscure. Resident correspondents had been unable to get news out. But Haile Selassie himself, ready to fight for his throne and blaming "irresponsible persons" for the rebellion, apparently was in or near Addis Ababa, his cap ital. A loyalist "Voice of Kthiopia broadcast reported him back. A similar broadcast earlier from ilengesha, then transmitting over a clandestine station, had reported the "Lion of Judah ' back in fclhi onia. Jn nearby French Somaliland Phone Workers Strike Ordered EVERETT, Wash. (AP) A West Coast Telephone Co. official said a strike scheduled for noon toady - shows that "the union wants to have its cake and eat it loo." V "To put it bluntly," said L. Gray Beck, "the union's idea of cake is too rich for our blood." Gray is vice president and gen eral manager of West Coast, which operates 73 exchanges in Western Washington, Oregon and Northern California. He said telephone service would continue, with supervisors man ning equipment. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, represent ing 1,600 plant, operator and cleri cal employes of the company, ordered the strike Thursday. The union is seeking a 5 per cent wage increase and other benefits. The strike action was taken after negotiations arranged by a federal mediator broke down for a second time. Beck said the company had made two proposals. One offered raises of 1(1 cents an hour in top brackets, with the same fringe benefits as in the present contract. The other offered wages parallel ing those paid by Pacific Telephone-Northwest, with other pro visions also following those in the union's contract with Pacific. "Since neither of these offers was accepted," said Beck, "wc can only conclude that the union wants to have its cake and eat it too." "Throughout the negotiations," he said, "the union has consistent ly compared our wages unfavor ably with those paid by (he Paeific company. Our offer to duplicate that firm's wages is precisely what the union has been appeal ing for." Adventist Speaker Scheduled Saturday Elder George E.

The Ethiopian consul general in Nairobi, Ken"a, said he had a re port from Addis Ababa that sol diers loyal to the emperor sur rounded the city and called on the rebels to surrender to avoid blood shed. Violent gun battles raged Thurs day in the narrow streets of Addis Ababa, the capital, and the Ethi opian radio said several civilians had been killed or wounded in an "inhuman massacre." Keporls trickling through broad casts and from foreign diplomats in Kthiopia said there also had been hand-to-hand fighting in As mara, capital of Eritrea, and liarar, capital of the country's largest province.

Service Order Eased A Little WASHINGTON fAP)-The gov crnment has eased its controver sial order limiting the number of military dependents overseas. Now there are loopholes for some families to squeeze through. Originally President Eisenhow er ordered lhat American service men abroad could have no more than a total of 200.000 dependents living with them. He listed no ex emptions. Thursday night the De partment of Defense listed exemp tions. Eisenhower's order last Nov. 17 stemmed from this country's ef forts to stop the flow of gold from the United States to foreign coun tries. American servicemen and their families spend American dollars while overseas, and these dollars sometimes are redeemed for American gold by foreign banks. The new Defense Department memorandum could mean that at least 60,000 more than the origi nal 200,000 dependents will be al lowed to stay abroad. In all, there are 484,000 military dependents aoroau. - In addition, the memorandum slows down the effect of the pres idential order by canceling a sys tem of strict monthly quotas of reductions supposed to begin next month. Under the new setup, each serv ice determines its own monthly quotas, in an probability few servicemen ordered abroad in the beginning of 1961 will travel with out their famines, The memorandum was issued by Deputy Secretary of Defense James II. Douglas in the absence of Secretary of Defense Thomas a. Gales.
