This concession raised hopes of some government officials that a way would be found to reach an agreement that would end the ticup.

The flight engineers report ed that 30 of 575 strikers re turned to their Jobs at East ern's demand. The airline had threatened to deprive engi neers who failed to return by midnight Tuesday of Job rights on Jet planes. Eastern did not make any report on the number of en gineers who returned.

A spokesman for Joint Task Force 8 here said there was no nuclear detonation nor danger of radiation. No one was injured. The rocket and nuclear de vice were deliberately de stroyed at 1:14 a.m. (PST) as a result of an undisclosed mal function. A white-hot fire burst out over the launch area and raged out of control for at least 15 minutes. It was final ly put out. No Hazard A task force statement said: "A check of Johnston Island discloses no injuries to per sonnel and no hazard from radioactivity as a result of the deliberate destruction, and burning, of a Thor booster and nuclear device on the launch pad. All missile fires have been extinguished." It was the second unsuccess ful attempt to detonate a nu clear device of less than a mil lion tons of TNT 30 to 60 miles over Johnston Island. It was not immediately known what effect today's failure would have on any fu ture U.S. test series. President Kennedy said Monday follow ing a Russian announcement it would cond,uct new tests that the United Slates "will not test again unless we are forced to." He indicated the decision would be made after a study of the Soviet tests. Time for Preparation The failure meant at least a two - week delay before the test can be tried again. That's bow long it takes to prepare the island site for a new blast. It was the latest in a frus trating line of failures in the attempt to detonate a sub megaton blast some 30-IO-60 miles over Johnston Island. A Joint Task Force 8 mem ber who monitored the radio communication in the test area described the confusion that surrounded the final seconds before the rocket was to be launched. He heard the unofficial countdown and then a voice crackle: "Missile destroyed, take cover . . . take cover . . . negative . . . negative . . , negative." 27 Other Blasts It was to be the 28th and perhaps final blast in the cur rent U.S. Pacific series. One was made out to sea, 25 at Christmas Island, and one at Johnston Island. That was a mammoth blast 200-400 miles high which lit up the Pacific skies from New Zealand to Hawaii. It was expected that the United Stales would make one more extremely high sub-megaton blast before call ing a halt to its current test scries. But it was not known whether repealed postpone ments would force cancella tion of the final experiment. Surgery Finished as Firemen Fight Brooklyn Hospital Fire New York -J1OT- In an oper ating room on the fifth floor of one of New York's oldest hospitals, a 54-year-old pa tient was having his stomach removed.

One hundred firemen bat tled the blaze which was brought under control within 45 minutes after it broke out Wednesday in the air space between the fifth floor ceil ing and the roof of the hos pintal. No one was injured and fire officials today praised the ex pert rescue operation which averted what could have been a major disaster. "It was potentially a very serious fire," said George Da vid, chief of the New York City Fire Department. "We had a great life hazard here." About 200 patients were guided to a lawn area on the hospital grounds out of reach of the smoke. Many were brought out on stretchers and in wheelchairs and infants were carried by nurses. James Watson was having his stomach removed and the operation was considered loo serious to interrupt. So while attendants kept firemen with hoses in the hall outside the operating room, the surgery was calmly completed. L2 For fail, Efficient Service' '$ LASiYtE to or from Oakland.
