2 8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Me,for4, Or. Thursday, Aug. 27. 1939 Production Men At Reynolds Plant Return Troutdale- (CFD -Production workers returned to their jobi at the big Reynolds Metals company aluminum plant late Wednesday, ending a one-day stoppage. Lee Caldwell, international representative of the Steel workers Union, said the men stopped work because of post ing by the company of warn ing notices calling for' dis ciplinary action for absentee ism. A company spokesman said the notices referred to were merely a supervisor's written notification to a work er that he had failed in prop erly performing his duties as required by the labor agree ment. Not Tied to Big Strike About 500 production work ers were involved. Caldwell said the stoppage was not con nected with national negotia tions between the firm and the union. The stoppage resulted when officers of the union failed in attempts to get members to return to work and company officials ordered a shutdown. Production workers returned to their jobs after the com pany advised the union's na tional headquarters that if they returned within 30 or 40 minutes the firm would try to start up three potlines -one at a time, but would not start up a fourth line sched uled for shut-down Sept. 1. Explorer VI Not Cluttering Radio Signals Washington (Science Serv ice) The successful orbiting of Explorer VI marks the first time the U.S. has used the 20 megacycle radio band to transmit scientific informa tion from space. The three Soviet Sputniks, none of which are now in orbit, used both 20 and 40 megacycles. The success also marks the first time any earth satellite has been equipped with an automatic cutoff for its broad cast signals. In accordance with an unwritten interna tional agreement reached through the United Nations and International Geophysical Year cooperation, the solar powered radio signals from Explorer VI will be auto matically stopped about a year after firing. This will prevent the clut tering of space with radio waves. The one -year cut-off re leases the 20 megacycles fre quency for other purposes, probably future satellites. All of the scientific experi ment measurements, except the detection of micrometeor ites, are fed to the 20 mega cycles system on Explorer VI. These signals can be much more easily heard both by amateurs and others owning radio sets than can be tuned to short wave than are those on 108 megacycles, the band used for tracking Explorer VI. AH previous U.S. satel lites have transmitted both tracking and scientific in formation on 108 megacycles.
