East Coast
Scene of
Waterfront
Wary Truce
NEW YORK UB An uneasy
truce settled on the East Coast
waterfront Tuesday, as shipping
shook off the effects of a five day,
multi-million dollar dock strike.
A court order ended the walkout
Monday night.
Longshoremen began streaming
back to work in such big .ports
as New , York, Philadelphia and
Baltimore. j
In New York, world's largest
port, 52 vessels started inching
into piers after the strike isolated
them for days at anchor in the
harbor.
Tugmen were back on the job
and big liners were freed from
the ticklish task of maneuvering
themselves into berths. First to
arrive in New York after the
strike's end was : the Swedish
American "liner Gripsholm. The
Italian Line's Andrea Doria , was
first to sail.
At its height the strike tied up
more than 100 vessels in 12 har
bors from Portland, Me., to Hamp
ton Roads Va.
A Taft-Hartley law injunction
Monday the first of the Eisen
hower administration forced the
striking International Longshore
men s Association back to work.
A railroad embargo on freight
shipments into New York was lift
ed. It was placed in effect last
Thursday - to prevent a tieup of
freight cars during the strike, f
Warren Makes
'Final Break
With Polities'
NEW YORK m Earl Warren,
chief justice of the United States,
said Tuesday night that he "will
nut nersonal and nartv oolitics be
hind me for the remainder of my
life."
Warren, former governor of Cal
ifornia, made the statement in a
filmed TV interview on the CBS
network "See It Now."
Warren, who took the oath of
his new office Monday, said he
feels he is "a conservative liberal
-i one who will confine his lib
eralism to practical conservative
thinking."
President Eisenhower had
s termed Warren a middle-of-the-roader.
Said the chief justice:
"I think of, what Lincoln once
said. Someone asked him-how he
classified himself. He said: 'I am
a very slow walker, but I never
walk backwards. "
Warren recalled that his law
school dean at the University of
California predicted he would nev
er graduate.
He said it was "an honest dif
ference of opinion" stemming from
the fact that he, Warren, took a
job as a law clerk to "see how
the machinery of the practice of
law worked."
The dean, he explained, thought
this was not consistent with case
study methods then employed and
felt Warren would spend his time
better in the library.
"In due course I did graduate,"
WarreB said.

NEW YORK -i Henry Cabot!
Lodge Jr., said Tuesday that "it
wasn't the U. N. that 'sucked' the
U. S. into Korea; it was rather
the other , way around."-- -
Ambassador Lodge, chief United
States delegate to the United Na
tions, made a point-by-point de
fense of the U. N. against its
critics in an interview-to be pub
lished in the Oct 12 issue of News
week magazine.
Intervieweu by Newsweek Asso
ciate Editor Gordon C Hamilton,
Lodge also said that the U. N.
"is not a nest of Communist spies.
because there is nothing to spy
on in the U. N."
Although calling the U. N. "the
necessary foundation for any fu
ture world ' order," Lodge said
world government schemes now do
more harm than good. '.
"Cannot Digest"
They are. he said, like feeding
"fried potatoes- to a newborn
baby"r "trying to ram some
thing down the throat of the world
which it cannot digest.
Lodge s statement that the U. S.
got the U. N. into Korea came
after he was asked what this coun
try gained from its partnership
with the U. N. in Korea.
Wha. we gained, he said, was
two divisions from 15 nations
which, otherwise, we would have
had to supply ourselves at a
cost of 600 million dollars a year
and many, more lives. ;
Compares Costs I
This, he said, compared with
the 25 million a year it costs the
U. S. to participate in the U. N.
"That's not a bad deaL" he
added.
Lodge said there was some
ustigcation for the complaints
about subversive American em
ployes at U. N., but a joint screen

Daring
Snatches Two
From Water
FLORENCE (J) Lois Norman
and Ernest Fossek, who survived
1 Vi hours in a raging sea Monday,
were recovering here Tuesday
after a daring rescue by Fossek's
brother. .
The brother, Walter, became
worried about the pair, who had
gone out in Ernest's 23-foot fishing
boat '
Walter started to drive along the
coast, and saw the boat just as
big waves spun it about, then
capsized it '
. ' He raced to the dock here, got
his own 40-foot boat, and against
advice of other fishermen, headed
out into the ocean, which by then
was tossing 30-foot waves. .
Two airplanes guided him to the
scene, and he rescued the two
from the water just minutes before
fog rolled in to obscure the area.
Both had been able to stay afloat
with the aid of life jackets.

Eisenhower Tuesday ordered five
million dollars worth of farm pro
ducts sent to Bolivia to help avert
a famine. v j-

the stocks of the Commodity Credit

last year giving him limited au
thority to send surplus farm pro
ducts to overseas countries where
emergency needs exist . i
Industries to
Join in Picking
A-Plant Design
WASHINGTON If) Four big
electric utilities and an engineer
ing firm joined forces Tuesday to
pick a design for an atomic power
plant
The Atomic Energy Commission
(AEC) announced its approval of
the new study, which it said will
be financed entirely by the com
panies. They are to report all their
findings and recommendations to
the commission.
The Commission announcenent
said the group's initial objective
"is to select a design of a reactor
intended primarily for the produc
tion of electric power within the
near future, and to make a pre
liminary economic appraisal of
such a design." 1
A spokesman said, however, he
saw no significance in use of the
phrase within the near future.
He referred a questioner to testi
mony before a congressional com
mittee during the summer that at
least 10 years would be required
to bring the cost of producing atom
ic power down to that of more con
ventional methods..
Joining in the study are Ameri
can Gas and Electric Service Corp.,
New York City; Commonwealth
Edison Co., Chicago; Pacific Gas
and Electric Co., San Francisco:
Union Electric Co., St Louis; and
the Bechtel Corp., an engineering
and construction company with
headquarters in San Francisco.
Four of the five companies, the
AEC said, have participated in pre
vious nuclear power studies dur
ing the last two years. It noted
that the four utilities own electric
generating capacity of more than
10 million kilowatts, and have
combined annual sales exceeding
48 Vi billion kilowatt hours.

and the secretary- general should
soon end the problem "for all
time.
He said one evidence that there
was nothing to spy on at U. N.
was the fact "the Soviets haven't
even ruled their quota of em
ployes."
Nose Prosecated
No United States citizen em
ployed by the U. N. has ever, been
prosecuted for espionage," .' he
added. . .
Asked if the Communist nations
were happy with what they are
getting from U. N., Lodge replied:
The Soviets have a real head
ache in the U. N. They cannot
control the U. N. They cannot
break it . up. They do not dare
leave it
If war came' in spite of the
U. N., it would then .be the in

probably one reason why the Com
munists don t leave it '

Fire Prevention
Float Burns
SPOKANE M) The "Fire Pre
vention Week" float caught fire in
front of the fire station Tuesday.
It was one of the best things that
could have happened to it
The float depicting fire scenes
with toy trucks and model build
ings, was being photographed. To
add realistic smoke, a fire was
started in a can and some flash
powder dumped on. Then, poof.
The float started to burn. Fire
men quickly got it out but didn't
clean up the mess. They said more
people stopped to look at the
scorched sides than ever before.
New electric utility plants to
be built in the United States by
1958 will consume 46 million
tons of coal annually.
