Inquiries for tickets have sharply declined because of the strike and officials of the Klam ath Falls bus depot said today that there was no indication as to how long the strike would last. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 5 M) Thousands of travelers and com muters, stranded in seven west ern and southwestern states by the midnight strike of Pacific Greyhound bus drivers, sought other means of transportation today as union and management officials indicated six hours later there had bqen no change in the situation. Taxi drivers reported a bo nanza on short-haul trips, rail' ' roads noted an immediate in crease in the demand for train travel, and bus lines not affect ed by the walkout were be sieged with requests lor accom modations. ... .' Strike Ordered The 2700 Pacific Greyhound drivers and station employes in California. Oregon. Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas were ordered on strike at midnight by the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway and Motor Coach Employes of America (AFL). Greyhound company officials here 'estimated the shutdown would affect 140.000 passengers daily, half of them military per sonnel. Wage Demands The walkout was called short ly before the deadline by Rob ert . Hasselman, the union's business agent, when last min ute negotiations with the bus company and U. S. conciliation service representatives failed to bring agreement. Wage increases ranging from 121 to 30 per cent are being asked by the union lor its members. The stoppage went into effect without incident Drivers were under instruction to continue their runs until midnight and then proceed to the nearest com pany depot end "drop the bus." " On many of the shorter 'inter city runs, commuters were left part way home with few other means of transportation avail able. Passengers , on longer routes and transcontinental trips were put off at the nearest ter minal. . Changes Made Hasselman charged that in fi lial conferences the company de manded wage cuts rather than increases. This was denied by F. W. Ackerman of San Francisco, company vice president, who as serted his firm was wiling to al low 15 per cent wage boosts and arbitrate the additional amount asked.

Suddenly, out of the thin fog, tho famed skyline of New York emerges, its skyscrap ers, topped by the Empire State Building, towering unbelievably. All over Europe, an eight-story building is high. We round a point and the Lady with the Torch comes into view. In the distance and in the early morning haze she is barely visible. So it isn't the inherent beauty of the world-famous fig ure that inspires the queer feel ing that brings a catch in your throat and, no matter how hard boiled and practical you may be, a trace of salty moisture to your eyes.

That's what brings the catch in your throat and the salty moisture at the back of your eyes. JUST as you're thrilled to the point of exaltation, a voice on the loud speaker instructs everybody to go at once to the dining saloon.
