It called for a 39-cvnt pay increase similar to raises ob tained by other dock workers who had struck from Maine to Texas. A controversial issue in volving the size of work gangs the shipping firms have sought to reduce them because of automation was to be studied by the International Longshoremen's associa t i o n and the shipping interests with the Labor Department as a mediator. The strike, which came aft er an 80-day Taft-Hartley cool- ing-off period expired, began Dec. 23. More than 100,000 longshoremen and maritime workers were idled. Its cost was placed at nearly 5900 million. In New York, 12,060 long shoremen were called in Sun day on doublctimc pay rates to work 91 ships at 65 piers. In Houston, several hundred longshoremen worked Sunday loading and unloading 30 ships, some of which had been tied up since the start of the strike.

Lockheed rejected IAM de mands for a union shop or an agency shop clause, the con tract did not include provi sions for compulsory union membership and mandatory payment of union dues. IAM workers continued on the job at Boeing facilities across the nation. Federal Judge William J. Lindberg issued the 10-day restraining order Friday after instructions from President Kennedy, and a hearing was set for this Fri day. Some 40,000 production and maintenance workers are in the bargaining unit involved in the dispute between tne IAM and Boeing, maker of Minuteman missiles and KC- 135 jet tankers. Newspapers With Mayor Robert Wag ner nersonallv taking a hand, representatives of New York publishers and striking print ers met into the early hours today. Publishers have proposed a $10 weekly package increase, while the union wants a S34.2S package over a two- year contract period. The dis puted items also include use of automatic typesetting equipment, setting of unused material and contract expira tion dates. The 52-dav-old strike has idled 20.000 employees at a cost of more than $41 million. Others have estimated the loss to the city's economy at DOWNTOWN MONDAY AND TUESDAY $3 million daily than $150 million. Mayor Ralph Lochcr was to meet today with represen tatives of 11 unions and the Cleveland Press and Cleve land Plain Dealer in an ef fort to end their strike, which has been going on since Thanksgiving. The key issue was union security for the American Newspaper Guild. Railroads The 200 striking members of the Brotherhood of Rail road Trainmen returned to work at the Monon Railroad under court order. The strike began at mid night Saturday and more than 1,000 employees were af fected. The issue was the fir ing of several men in April, 1962, for refusing to ride in privately owned vehicles on public roads in the course of their duties. The line runs be tween Chicago and Louisville, Ky. Eleven non - operating unions continued their walk out against the Florida East Coast Railway, which serves, among other points, Cape Canaveral and Florida resort cities. The union is asking a 10.2(1 cent wage increase, The rail way says it was hurt by the Cuban crisis and cannot af ford the increase. Transit Union negotiators ques tioned the status of a court appointed receiver of the Philadelphia Transportation company in the 13-day transit strike. Michael J. Quill, interna tional president of the Trans port Workers Union, said former Chief Justice Horace Stern of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court was not a le gally appointed receiver and could not sign a "continuing contract."

Clock Radio 19.95 CommuniqueTells Alleged Plot To Kill Raul Castro Havana -- (IW - The Castro government claimed Sunday it had broken up two Amer ican spy rings plotting to kill Raul Castro and foment inter nal uprisings as distraction for a massive invasion. A government communique charged the espionage net works were operated by the U.S. Central Intelligence Ag ency from Miami and the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay. The CIA in Washington de clined to comment on the re port, and the Department of Defense said it knew of no CIA operations from Guan tanamo. A large number of persons were arrested and a cache of weapons and explosives bur ied near the naval base was confiscated, the government said. Those arrested appar ently were all Cubans except for four Jamaicans. List of Names Seized The communique said four "main links" with the CIA were among those captured. It gave the names of 12 per sons arrested, including two women. In addition it said the government seized a list with the names of 36 other persons involved in the plots. The total number of arrests was not specified. The government release said two of the prisoners were in on the "frustrated attempt to kill Raul Castro," armed forces minister and brother of Premier Fidel Cas tro. It did not make clear whether the assassination act ually had been attempted or was caught in the planning stage. The separate spy networks operated in Oriente Province at Cuba's eastern end, accord ing to the communique. It said the immediate objective of the groups was to "get all available information about military installations, troop movements, the arrival and departure of all ships and the promotion of the activities of the counterr evolutionary bands in the country." Milwaukee, Wis. -HIPP- The book, "How To Stop Pilferage in Business and Industry," was stolen from the public library Saturday and the cul prit was caught.

Washington - H'PH - Senate stockpile investigators said Saturday that Hanna Nickel Co. "improperly charged" al most S2 million to expenses under a government nickel contract. The General Services Ad ministration has mailed a bill lo the company for the amount, with a notation that "your prompt remittance will be appreciated." The bill totaled $1,816,958 and was sent to R. W. Whit ney, president of the Hanna Nickel Smelting Co., Cleve land. This was disclosed by Sen. Stuart Symington (D Mo ), chairman of the Special Senate Stockpile subcommit tee. Former Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey is board chairman emeritus of the par ent Hanna Mining Co. The Humphpy family still owns control? ng interest in the Hanna enterprises. Symington also announced a resumption of hearings to day into alleged excessive prices charged by government suppliers of metals and ma terials for the national stra tegic stockpiles. Summoned to testify again was Dr. Arthur S. Flemming, former director of the Office of Defense Mobilization in the Eisenhower Administration. The GSA contends that Hanna Smelting charged oil to expenses under a cost-plus contract many items which properly should have been capitalized. Last July, the GSA sent a preliminary bill to the firm asking for S252.147. The com pany has not paid it 'The latest bill is the result of a complete audit of the Hanna contract, and brings up to date all items which the GSA claims were "improperly charged to cost of production, expenditures which should have been capitalized." It in cludes the outstandng bill for $252,147.
