Douglas MacArthur address a joint session of the Philippine Congress during his visit here has been canceled. An official in the office of Pres ident Carlos P. Garcia said today a message bad been sent to Mac Arthur in New York advising him of the change in plans. The general will be a special guest at the celebration July 4 of the 15th anniversary of Philippine in dependence. There was no official explana tion for the cancellation of the speech, but questions have been raised because the privilege of addressing a joint congressional session is usually reserved for chiefs of state. headed by GOP Gov. John H. Reed of Maine was ready to rec ommend the election of Gov. Wes ley Powell of New Hampshire as new chairman of the conference. Powell would succeed Democra tic Gov. Stephen L. R. McNichols of Colorado under a conference tradition of rotating the chairman ship yearly between members of the two major parties. Some Republicans complained Powell was being forced upon them by Democrats who didn't want the conference honor to go to Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York, President Kennedy's possible opponent in ' the 1964 presidential contest. Powell was rebuked by former Vice President Richard M. Nixon during the 1960 presidential cam paign for suggesting that Kennedy was soft on communism. The New Hampshire governor has made it duce action by the American peo ple toward the end that all dis crimination based on race, creed or color will be terminated in housing, in education, in trans portation, in employment, in pub lic places of assembly and in per sonal services." Approval of two-thirds of those voting is necessary for adoption of any conference resolution.

LOUIS (AP) Forecasts on the U.S. Weather Bureau wire resemble a racing form. Tuesday, the weather bureau began giving odds on thunder- showers explaining that summer showers don't always fall over the entire area for which they are forecast. From now on, all forecasts of showers will be followed by a let of odds, intended to give people an idea of their chances of getting wet. Gen. Aguinaldo Unable To Attend Celebration MANILA (AP) - Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, 92 and ailing, proba bly will not be able to attend the 15th anniversary celebration of Philippine independence July 4.

That bargaining broke down in a stalemate. Today Reuther leads the UAW bargaining team against the giant of the auto industry. Gen eral Motors Corp. Thursday he'll I take on Ford Motor Co., and on Friday, Chrysler Corp. He'll get around to American Motors Corp. July 6. Current three-vear contracts with the Big Three GM, Ford and Chrysler end Aug. 31. For the first time the UAW is entering negotiations without a specific all-out goal. In 1958 it was profit-sharing and in 1955 it was a guaranteed annual wage. It got neither, but it both aimed and fought for them. This time the union is going in with a flexihle program aimed primarily at making more jobs and making those of its members more secure. The industry, too, has announced a flexible position but has emphasized it will fight to avoid any costs that could in crease car prices. Neither side knows just where it stands in Washington A shorter work week is a goal among many for the union. But President Kennedy has insisted a 40-hour work week currently necessary to promote economic growth. Labor Secretary Arthur Gold berg has said a strike in the auto industry, with the nation recover ing from economic tolerable. Some sources took this as an invitation to the union to seek Washington intervention if it can't get what it wants otherwise. Oth ers saw it as undercutting the union's bargaining power.

While it holds its fact-finding session today, un ion and management will be hold ing private mediation talks spon sored by the board only a few blocks away. The talks are a continuation of several off-the-record" sessions held Tuesday night from which the press was barred. Some of the talks continued into the early morning. The board has only until Friday to come up with a solution to the strike. On Friday, it will re port to President Kennedy. This report could clear the way for an injunction. In all, 85,000 men are out on strike, affecting over 200 Ameri can vessels in 30 port cities.
