Federal Mediator Holds Meeting in Newspaper Strike New York IUPD Federal mediator Frank H. Brown wa to meet today with represent atives of nine New York City newspapers and striking craft unionists with both sides fear ful that a prolonged walkout could cause the deatn of one or more newspapers. Brown, director of the Fed eral Mediation and Concilia tion service, scheduled the meeting in the hopes of steer ing negotiations toward an agreement between officials of the Publishers association of New York and Local 6 of the International Typographi cal union (ITU). Lengthy Strike Feued But prospects for an early settlement were slim and with all signs pointing toward a lengthy strike, one publisher feared that "one or two or more" of the city's newspa pers might be forced out of business. The strike by printers and deliverymen, now in its third day, cut off one-tenth of the nation's total dally newspaper circulation. The nine newspa pers involved have a total daily circulation of about 5, 700,000. They are the New York Times, Herald Tribune, Daily News, Mirror, World - Tele gram, Journal- American, Post, Long Island Star Jour nal and the Long Island Daily Press. New Yorkers adjusting to the strike, were turning to out of town newspapers and relying more heavily on mi jor radio and television net works for coverage of nation al and international events. The dispute revolve around the ITU's demand for a new two-year contract call ing for a $10 weekly pay in crease during the first year and $8.45 the second with reduction in the work week and fringe benefits. Publishers Offer $8 The publishers have offered an $8 weekly increase over a two-year period, a proposal similar to the one already ac ccptcd by editorial and com mercial employees of six of the seven newspapers ncgo tiating with the American Newspaper Guild. F, M. Flynn, president of the Daily News, expressed the fear that a long dispute might drive "one or two or more' of the newspapers out of busi ness. And Mrs. Dorothy Schiff, publisher of the Post said a prolonged walkout might" finish the Post. The strike was expected to cost the publishers at least $1.3 million a day. The city's 20,000 newspaper employees will lose about $260,000 in daily wages.

Soviet delegate Somyon K. Tsarapkin made the offer be fore today's session of the 17 nation Disarmament Confer ence. Tsarapkin proposed that Russia and the other nuclear powers allow the establish ment ot two or three un manned seismic stations on their territory to police a test ban. Asked later whether this meant the Russians were now prepared to let International inspectors onto their terri tory, Soviet spokesman Al- exci Rosen in said simply: Yes." Accompanied by Soviets Roschin quoted Tsarapkin as saying the international in spectors could be taken to the site of the black boxes in Soviet planes and accom panied by Soviet personnel. U. S. Ambassador Charles Stellc said he "welcomed" the Soviet proposal and hoped it would lead to Russian ac ceptance of the principle of on-site Inspection of suspected nderground nuclear blasts by the Russians. Isarapktn, as quoted by Roschin, did not link the Rus sian offer with a demand that the West drop the principle of on-site inspection. Bui an American spokes man said afterwards that this linking "has been made cr.ough times before by the Russians for us to know where they stand on the sub ject." Tsarapkin sairl his proposal lends "a now element" to the test ban talks here since it includes "a certain element" of international control. Opposition Unchanged American sources said the Soviet proposal did n o t change the basic Soviet oppo sition to the principle of on site inspection of suspected underground tests, a principle to which the West is firmly committed. Replying briefly to Tsarap kin, Stelle said the West would welcome Soviet will ingness to allow international control of the unmanned seismic stations. lie warned, however, the West cannot accept black boxes as the sole guarantee of a test ban. Stelle made no comment on the small number of un manned seismic stations of fered by Tsarapkin. Western delegation sources recalled that Western scientists believe thousands of such stations would be noccsary to police the Soviet Union alone. Foreign Briefs DUTCH FREIGHTER SINKS OFF SWEDEN Haernosand, Sweden - IIIPII - A Dutch coastal freighter, tha 200-ton Hendrik B, ran on the rocks off the northeast coast of Sweden today and sank in high teas.

Official Suspends Self Over Alleged Bribery Newburgh, N. Y. IUPD Joseph McD. Mitchell, ac cused 'of bribery, suspended himself Sunday from the post of city manager where he be came nationally known through his get-tough welfare policies. Mitchell was accused of de manding $20,000 from two realtors who wanted a zoning law change in this city on the Hudson river north of New York. He bowed out of local affairs until he is cleared of conspiracy, bribery and ac ceptance of unlawful fees. In a letter to the mayor and the city council, Mitchell said: "In view of the false charges against me, I have no alternative but to suspend my self as city manager until I am exonerated." The council is scheduled to pick a temporary replacement for Mitchell at Its meeting to night. Mitchell has held the $17,500-a-year city manager post since 1960. He held sim ilar municipal posts before at Culver City, Calif., and Mar ble Township, Pa. He was arrested last week by New York City detectives, and faces a hearing in a Man hattan court Friday on the bribe charges. Mitchell is accused of tak ing $20,000 from twin bro thers Stephen and Joseph Wahrhaftig, Montecello, N.Y. The Wahrhaftigs own 11 acres in Newburgh in a one-family home area, and are trying to get it rezoned for multidwell- The council deferred action : on the zoning case following a hearing Saturday, but sev eral councilmen indicated sup port for the realtors' request. Councilmen William Doulin, George McKneally and Irving Green said they were sure of Mitchell's integrity. Mitchell and his accused co conspirator, Lawrence J. De- masi Jr., 42, Lyndhurst, N.J., could be sentenced to 10-year jail terms and $5,000 fines on each of four felony counts if convicted. Demasl ia tne a-:eged go between who had the $20,000 in his possession when picked up at a Manhattan hotel, ac cording to Manhattan Dist. Atty. Frank Hogan. The ar- j rests were made after the j Wahrhaftigs reported the' bribe demand, Hogan said. Mitchell caused an uproar j that received national atter-i tion in 1961 by ordering a series of "crackdown" moves on welfare claimants. State welfare authorities opposed the measures, and many of his policies never took effect be cause of court ruling.
