live firemen out of work and
overhaul pay and seniority
systems for train crews.
Leaders of five unions
have threatened to strike if
the changes are made.
Board Secretary Eugene C.
Thompson said letters were
sent to the unions and the na
tion's leading railroads con
cerning an NMB proposal to
arbitrate the i.Kucs in dispute.
The railroads accepted ar
bitration. The labor organiza
tions turned down the offer.
Under the Railway Labor
act, neither side can make
any changes in rules or work
ing conditions for 30 days.
It appeared that only ap
pointment of a presidential
emergency board to investi
gate the dispute and make
settlement recommendations
could st-ve off a transporta
tion crisis in mid-August.
Both sides expect that
President Kennedy will Inter
vene. This would delay any
changes or resulting walkout
for at least 60 days after he
names such a special board.
The iraues In dispute wore
studied for more than a year,
however, by a presidential
railroad commission consist
ing of five public, five union
and five managemert repre
sentatives. The railroads accepted the
recommendations but the un
ions rejected them. Negotia
tions began April 2 in an ef
fort to resolve the differ
ences.
M a n a g ement negotiators
walked out twice, claiming
that the rail brotherhoods
were stalling. The unions re
plied that the companies did
not seem interested in di.s
cussing the issues . raised by
the unions.
The unions involved are
t h e locomotive engineers
firemen, conductors, train,
men and switchmen.
The carriers have indicated
(hey want to institute the
changes recommended by the
commission as soon as possi
ble whether the unions agree
or not.
At the outset of the three.
year-old dispute, the rail
roads contended that obsolete
work rules they called "fcath
erbedding" were costing $500
million a year. The unions
said the rules were necessary
for efficiency and safely.

Failure of
Life Support
System Blamed
Sunnyvale, Calif - lUPIl
Two Rhesus monkeys and
four hamsters which were
sent aloft in a high altitude
balloon as part of a radiation
experiment died from natural
causes in the capsules in
which they were parachuted
to earth, the Ames Research
Center announced here today.
Dr. Webb Haymaker, head
of the Life Sciences Division
of the center, reported from
the scene of the landing in
northern Saskatchewan that
the animals had died due to
failure of the life support
system in the capsules. This
includes air conditioning, tem
perature and oxygen.
Haymaker, who first flew
over the rugged scene of the
capsule's landing in a helicop
ter, reported he could detect
"no sign of life." The heli
copter was unable to land at
first, but Haymaker returned
later and made his determin
ation. The helicopter was un
able to pick up the three cap
sules, and Haymaker has re
turned again to tha scene in
a float plane to get them.
The capsules will be flown
to Edmonton, Alberta. Two
of them with the monkeys,
hamsters and recording equip
ment will be forwarded to
Goose Bay, Labrador, from
where the balloon was orig
inally launched. The other,
containing flower beetles,
will be sent to the Ames Re
search Center here for study.
The beetles and several
flower beetles were parachu
ted into the heavily forested
area after a 39-hour, 25-mile-high
ride across Canada to
test how radiation might af
fect space travelers. They
were contained in two of three
capsules attached to a balloon
300 feet In diameter and 384
feet high.
The capsules were released
electronically by a tracking
plane at 2:30 p.m. (PST) Sun
day. Haymaker was guided
to the site of the landing, 43
miles north of Prince Albert,
by a radio beacon which al
lowed scientists to track the
balloon on its 1,920-mile trip.
The balloon was launched
early Saturday in Goose Bay,
Labrador.
Stock Prices Drop

New York - Wll - Slocks

during moderate first hour
trading today.
Motors, chemicals and in

small fractions at worst but
steels reacted fractions to
more than 2 points in Youngs

service report that sleel com

Rails, tobaccos, utilities, air

Growth issues were mostly

Graham Criticizes Modern
Living in Fresno Crusade
Fresno, Calif. - OIPD - Evan
gelist Billy Graham, suffer
ing from a slight sore throat,
planned to preach on the prob
lems of youth, security and
sex tonight in the second ser
mon of his eight-day crusade
in Fresno.
Graham opened his crusade
Sunday nighl wlfh a ringing
criticism of modern living
and a call to return to God.
He addressed a capacity
crowd of 23.000 in Ratcliffe
Sladium, a collcce football
stadium convened into an
open-air church for his ap
pearance here.
"We are a people filled
with fear, frustration, disap
pointment and sin,'' Graham
said. "We are in danger of be
coming Jaded, empty and
hsnal."
The evangelist said it is
"doubtful that a country with
no highly developed sense of
national purpose, with an
overwhelming accent on
personal comfort and with in
sufficient social discipline can
compete with a purposeful,
serious and disciplined society
such as that of the Soviet Un
ion." The crowd of shirtsleeved
men and women wearing light
summer dresses dresses swelt
ered in 90-degree heat as Gra
ham called for a rededication
to God.
"God has become only an
extension of our own dc-ires
and imaginations," he said.
"We have .n.u e a pygmy Gud.
h miniaf.i.o deity, iVluoned
in our own image. We need
to accept the Biblical concept
of God."

Experts Study Fragments
In Basilica Bomb Blast
Vatican CIty-IUPD - Italian
army ballistics experts today
examined fragments of a
bomb that exploded Saturday
night in St. Peter's Basilica.
Vatican officials and police
leaned to the theory that a
crank set off the bomb in
Christendom's largest basilica.
The bomb was set on the
ledge of a monument of Pope
Clement X to the right of the
apse behind the main altar.
The blast only slightly damag
ed the base of the statue and
the frame of the nearby organ.
No one was injured.
Security measures were im
mediately taken at St. Peter's,
in the Vatican palaces, and at
Pope John's summer home at
the nearby town of Castel
gandolfo where the Pope went
Sunday.
