Detroit Steel Products conv pany, Detroit, manufacturing equipment for machine tool pra ducers, 730 men on strike since May 7.

Sivyer Steel Casting com pany, Chicago, manufacturing tank armor, 250 men on strike, The walkout at North Ameri can was the second rejection In 24 hours of proposals of the mediation board. "Stalling" Charged President Roosevelt said in his speech declaring an unlimited national emergency: "A nation wida machinery for the concilia tion and mediation of industrial disputes has been set up. That machinery must be used prompt ly and without stoppage of. work. The mediation board was charged by W. P. Goodman, head of the CIO United Automo bile workers local at North America, with "stalling the workers." Management and union representatives in Wash ington for the mediation confer ences met during the morning but recessed as no board repre sentatives could attend. The mediation board mem bers were in session to deter mine what action could be taken on the defiance of a west coast CIO lumber workers' un ion of the board's recommenda tions for settling a strike ham pering defense work in the northwest. Actios Demanded Meanwhile, congress heard new demands for presidential action to end strikes. Rep. Lambertson (R-Kas.) told the house that with the current strikes, "this nation is due to whip itself before it starts to whip anybody else," and called on President Roosevelt to take action to stop them. He also asked the. house democratic leadership to call up legislation to require a coollng-off period before a defense strike could be gin, i.

Rep. Voorhis (ID Calif.,) commenting on state ments by the lumber workers union leader, said it appeared "that you've got a condition of labor that's not going to do la bor any good." He said it was a type of leadership "winch in my judgment is directed from some other part of the world. Immediately after the CIO announced its strike call against North American, officials said the company would hold itself available for negotiations at the request of the board "in an ef fort to reach an amicable settle ment . . . without the stoppage of production in a unit so vital to national defense" but later the firm announced it would not at tempt to operate today. Offi cials said it was the first time since the firm was established in 1928 that it had halted opera tions because of a labor contro versy. The company has $198,000,000 worth of contracts for planes for the United States and British governments. It issued a state ment saying it was "surprised and shocked" at the strike call "while negotiations are still in progress before the national de fense mediation board." (Continued from Page One) present goal of 1,418,000 to pos sibly 2,800,000. At today's committee meeting, however, members said Somer vell had told them the bulk of the construction would be new powder plants, shell loading fac tories and similar facilities. The money for their construction al ready is available, legislators said. On another defense front. meanwhile, the maritime com mission moved closer to the 2,-000,000-ton goal President Roose velt set for it several weeks ago when, he directed the creation of a special shipping pool in the interest of the defense and Brit ish aid programs. The commission called upon Atlantic and gulf coastwise steamship operators to turn over half their tonnage to the pool. Approximately 125 ships with a total tonnage of 750,000 are now in the two coastwise services. The acquisition of 375.000 tons from this source would put the tonnage earmarked for the pool at about 1,875,000. Two weeks ago the commission was under stood to have approximately 1, 500,000 tons pined up, counting in almost 500,000 tons of refugee foreign shipping which the gov ernment would take over under terms of the bill now awaiting President Roosevelt's signature. A law in Fresno, Calif., for bids the manufacture of cream pies from June 16 to October 1 each year. a. JUDGE MNS PUBLIC ABOUT FIRE OFFENSES Justice of the Peace Joe Ma honey served notice Thursday that there will be no leniency in his court in cases involving carelessness with fire. The judge slapped a $50 fine on Howard Lloyd Taylor, wood cutter, charged with permitting a fire to spread. He suspended the fine and placed Taylor on six months' probation, but said: "The only reason I am sus pending this fine is the strait ened circumstances of the de fendant. If he commits another offense he will have to pay the fine or go to jail." Judge Mahoney after the hearing declared he is fully cognizant of the serious hazard that exists in this area this fire season, and its threat to the wel fare of labor, agriculture and industry. "I feel that this situation re quires the greatest vigilance of law enforcement officers and of the public," said Justice Ma honey. "Punishment in court should be In keeping with the seriousness of the offense at a time when fire is most inimical to the welfare of our commun ity and our country. "For these reasons, I am warn ing the public right now that fire law violators brought into my court can expect no leni ency." 25 Selectees Leave Klamath Wednesday Night (Continued from Page One) Falls; Thomas O.

Britain Nears Move Into Syria; Bombs Fall on Alexandria (Continued from Page One) and Lebanon to be "enemy occu pied territory" for the purpose of restricting British commerce with them. In axis hands, Syria could base a land drive toward Suez and Alexandria, via Palestine and Transjordan, and would bo a wedge between the British mid dle east and Turkey, Britain's non-belligerent ally. Bnei on Crete Bombing of Alexandria, Lon don's qualified commentators said, is the logical step follow ing German-Italian occupation of the Greek island of Crete. Cyprus, a British island base at the northeastern corner of the Cretc-Alexandria-Cyprus trian gle, was regarded as of lessened importance to the axis, now that German bombers have fields in Crete, Syria and Libya from which to blast at Suez. Alexandria is well within 500-mile or two-hour bomber j range of Cretan, Syrian, and Lib yan airfields. Amendment May Limit Draft to Ages 21 to 27 WASHINGTON. June 5 OF) Brig. Gen. Lewis B. Hershcy was quoted by senators today as saying that men inducted for military training would be limit ed to those 21 to 27 years old if congress approved requested amendments to the selective servico act. The director of selective serv ice, they said, testified this was the intent of proposals to grant the president power to defer in duction of men by age groups. Chairman Reynolds (D-N.C.) of the senate military committee before which General Hershey appeared in close session, said the group probably would act on the requested amendments to morrow. Senator Lodge (R-Mass) said General "Hershey suggested the 27 year age limit for trainees when he was asked what would be done under tho proposed amendments. Lodge then sug gested that this be written into the draft law. The general was said to have suggested that the deferment would apply to all men who were 27 or over on October 16, i 1940.

STRIKE BALLOT SET ON HOT ISSUE (Continued from Page One) two scales bo boosted 20 cents per day to $3.20 lnsteud of the $3.50 asked by the alliance, Two meetings of the alliance membership, one at 3 p. m. and another at 8 o'clock this eve ning, were slated for today. Most other wage demands mado by the union, involving 50-ccnt Increases for tho balance of restaurant and bar employe classifications, were acceptod in the compromise plan. A union request for an additional 50 cents 'per day for split shift workers was not accepted. While over 30 local employers have either acceded to or Indi cated their willingness to accept the union's month-old demands, eleven houses, including three of Main street's largest, have fought tho proposed 50-cent boost. In addition to the waitress and dishwasher increase, the al liance is asking a $7 per day wago for male cooks, $5.50 for bartenders, and $5 for women rooks. All call for a half-dollar increase over the 1040-41 con tract which expired May 31. Association spokesmen, in re leasing the compromise offer, pointed out that the $3.20 scale would involve a 6 2-3 per cent raise. New bartender and cook wngo levels would mean boosts of from eight to 11 per cent. An all-time American record was sot In 1940 when private pilots of 16.500 planes flew 220, 000.000 miles.
