British Industrial Plants Beginning to Feel Pinch of Suez-Spawned Oil Shortage

LONDON, v. 29 Wl-Britaln
Wt more fully tonight the crip
pling effect! or the closing of the
Suet Canal and the stoppage of
oil from Middle East pipelines on
the Mediterranean. Oil and its by
products the life blood of industry
and transport became harder to
get, and there are hints a gallon
of gasoline might cost over 70
cents by Christmas against today's
quotation of 56-58 cents.
First industry to feel the pinch
was the automobile makers. Ford
Motor Co. put J.000 employes on
a four-day week beginning next
Monday, explaining rationing is
- the reason It has brought adrop
in the demand for cars.
The makers of Rolls-Royces cut
out overtime because of the gaso
line scarcity, The manufacturers
of Jaguars announcd
some of their workers would have
to go on an abbreviated work
week. Other car makers intimated
they will have to cut down pro
duction. ,, ' . .
Although official gasoline ration-
earlier ! filling stations are limiting cus
tomers to one or two gallons each.
There have been long lines be
fore pumps that were operating.
Police had to be called out at one
filling station,
The driver of a big gasoline
ing does not begia.nnlil DecJTj truck reported a line of nearly
100 cars followed him, hoping by
keeping on his tail to spot a fill
ing station with plenty of gas.
Many garages and stations shut
down for a few days, or stayed
open only a few hours. They took
these measures to make sure they
could honor ration coupons when
become effective.
ist will allow him 200 miles of
travel a month.
Sir Norman Kipping, director
general of -the Federation of Brit
ish Industries, told manufacturers
today there may have to be big
ger" cuts In oil consumption.' '
"If foreign competitors take ad
vantage of our plight things may
be hard for British industry," he
said.
The first tankers to sail to Brit
ain around the Cape of Good Hope
since the closing of the canal are
i
now unloading oil from Kuwait.
More are expected over the week
end. But even this will not halt
expected price increases. A
spokesman for the oil companies
said:
"It must be expected that prices
will go up 1 substantially. The
freight charges alone would necet- "crush hours" on bust and sub
sitata an increase.'' ; ways. He said gasoline rationing'
The route around Africa takes would twitch about SO.OOO to pub
several days more than the Suet lie transport in the London area.
The government expects u ioe
about 1? million dollars a month
way.
Minister of Transportation I. G.
Watkinson appealed to employers
to stagger working hours to avoid
in tax
starts.

Slavs Add
Soldiers to
U.N. Force
By DAVID MASON
PORT SAID. Egypt. Nov. 29 tfl
Three Red-starred ships carry
ing 721 solemn-faced Yugoslav sol
diers for the U.N. police force.tied
up in this British- and French
held port today. This strong addi
tion to the tl.N.'s peace-enforcing
establishment arrived as both i
sides complained of truce viola
tions. .
Egyptian Brig. Gen. Amin Hel
my charged two British made
Venom jet fighters strafed admin
istrative trucks and antiaircraft
nuns east of Ismailia in the Suet
(anal rone, and that two French
made Mystere jeta flew over the
area later. He demanded and got
an immediate investigation by
U.N. observenr No -mention was
made of casualties.
Relmy told reporters at Abu Su
weir, U.N.-Asesmbly base west of
Ismailia, that regardless of wheth
er the planes were manned by Is
raelis, British or French "all are
enemies of ours."
A British-French headquarters
spokesman here taid a protest
n mxle to the U.N, when tn4
Egyptian patrol one officer and
two or three men wandered
around the British right flank at
El Cap and then withdrew. No
shots were fired.
Buffer PmHImi
Scandinavia troop of the U.N.
command, which were scheduled
to take up buffer positions on the
cease-fire line today, postponed
their occupation of the area tt
least until tomorrow.
The three small Yugoslav ships
flying the U.N. flag which put in
with troops, trucks and scout cars,
ran into an immediate unloading
snag. Only a handful of Egyptian
dockers turned up to unload the
ships. The British, who. had turned
the job over to a civilian con
tractor, said they .would put sol
diers to work if oo more Egyp
tians showed up. At least 300 dock
ers were needed.
Dragging Feet
There was no explanation of why
the Egyptians refused to work the
Yugoslav ships. But Egyptian civi
lians have been dragging their
fret when it eame to working for
the British and French. The Yugo
slav soldiers are to remain aboard
their ships until the unloading is
done. Then they are to proceed
through the cease-fire line to the
Egyptian side at El Ballah, U.N.
administrative headquarters.
British soldiers on the pier
greeted the Yugoslavs with
friendly waves but the new arri
vals peered from their ships with
out waving back.
Ex-Partlsaa Fighter
Col. Nikola Radosevic, a former
Partisan fighter, who commanded
the Yugoslav contingent, received
Lt. Gen. Sir Hugh StockweB, the
British commander, and Maj.
Gen, E.L.M. Burns, the U.N. com
mander, aboard ship.
This was the first U N. force to
arrive m, Egypt 'by A smaller
Yugoslav unit which arrived by
air is already at El Ballah on the
Egyptian side.
The only U.N. troops on the
British-French tide to far are
shout 400 Norwegians and Danes
who are camped in a park on the
beach at Port Said. They have not
taken up patrol duties.
U.N. Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold has said he ex
pects to have1 more than 4,000
troopt In Egypt withm two weeks.
