President Kennedy would have to invoke the act, which requires a 80-day cooling off period. Members of the Interna tional Association of Machi nists struck Lockheed facili ties in Florida, California and Hawaii early today. A Defense Department spokesman said one of the things that is being consld. cred" is whether the Taft Hartley Act should be in voked. Largs Contractor Lockheed is one of the na tion's largest defense con tractors, producing Polaris missiles, Agena spacecraft. air transports, and numerous other items. The Pcntegon spokesman said that the department was "studying the impact" the strike could have, surveying alternate means of produc. lion" and requiring that any new contracts given Lockheed must have specia' scrutiny and specific approval of Army, Navy and Air Force secretaries. He said Lockheed had an "enormous number of de fense contracts" but he was unable to name any product that was under consideration to be shifted to any other producer. The department announced Nov. 17 that it was consider ing whether alternate produc tion sources could be used in event of a work stoppage at Lockheed. Plants Picketed Meanwhile, union machi nists were picketing Lock heed's production plants and missile bases in a widespread strike affecting some 55.000 employees from Cape Cana veral, Fla., to Hawaii. The strike was called at midnight by the machinists when negotiators said they were hopelessly deadlocked on the crucial union shop is sue which had stalled media tion attempts. Federal Mediator William Simkins said he would return to Washington to make a re port to Kennedy on the status of the deadlock. The Lockheed installation at Cape Canaveral was struck first at midnight (EST) and West Coast members walked off thei r jobs three hours later. Several hundred spectators milled with 40 or 50 pickets at the main gate of the major in stallation here of the Cali fornia division that produces the F104 StarfiRhter and P3A Orion antisubmarine patrol planes. Plants Remain Open Lockheed Vice President John Canaday said all plants are open and the firm was de termined to "make an effort to minimize the effects of the strike and continue operations." The California division em ploys 24,000 workers and at Palmdalc, Calif. The Missiles and Space Di vision employs some 31.000 persons at Sunnyvale, Van Nuys, Santa Cruz, Rye Canyon and Vandeiilierg Air Force liase, Calif., and at Honolulu and Cape Canaveral. Another 20.000 employees of Lockheed divisions at oilier locations, including Marielta. da., were not affected by the I walkout. Hatfield Approves Budget For Agriculture Department Corvallis - (TO - Gov. Mark Hatfield has approved a So' 6 million budget for the State Agriculture Department in 19(13-65, the State Board of Agriculture was told here Tuesday. This would be an increase of about $200,000 over the current budget. The agricul ture department was budgeted for $6 8 million this biennium, but figures it will spend under that - about $6 4 million. J. W. Southworth, assistant state agriculture director, said about 60 per cent of the $6.6 million would come from fees and licenses. The agriculture board gave final approval to plans for a new state agriculture building, estimated to cost $900,000. The Governor hasn't ap proved the proposal so far, and it isn't included in the $6.6 million. The board has indicated it will ask the 1963 legislature to authorize immediate con struction of the new building, to replace an older building in Salem.
