Wildcat Dock Strike Threatens Shipping Tieup NEW YORK jB A widespread longshoremen's strike today threat ened to cripple shipping on the luxury liner piers. The wildcat walkout, sparked by the denial of a work permit to one man and fed by long-standing union resentment against the offi cial Waterfront Commission, be gan Monday at the Grace Line terminal and spread yesterday to other piers. At least 14 ships were affected. Patrick J. Connolly, executive vice president of the International Longshoremen's Assn., said last night the men would be ordered back to work this morning. "But there is no indication they will go back," he added. Thus far the strike has not spread to docks in Brooklyn or New Jersey. However, the ILA in Brooklyn called a meeting of its members for 1 p.m. today. The strike yesterday caught the Queen Mary midway through un loading operations. When dock workers walked off, leaving pas sengers stranded with their bag gage, the Cunard Line's office personnel pitched in to help, The big liner was set to sail on schedule today without unload ing much of the 150 tons of in coming cargo that she had brought here. Arrangements were made to have U.S. Navy men take off the mail. In addition to hampering pas senger operations, the strike stopped work on freighters tied up in Manhattan. The strike started ostensibly as a protest against the lifting of a temporary work permit for John (Mickey) McLoughlin, a loading boss for the Grace Line. The Waterfront Commission of New York harbor, an agency set up Jointly by the states of New York and New Jersey, took back the permit because of McLoughlin's long criminal record. However, after a meeting of the union's district council last night, Connolly said the McLoughlin in cident was not the real issue. In stead, he said, the strike was a protest against the "general oper ations" of the commission. Connolly called on the states of New York and New Jersey to In vestigate the commission and add ed: ' 'It's time the commission learns how to apply the law to longshore men in a human way." " The ILA was thrown out Of the APL about two years ago for fail ing to rid itself of racketeers and criminal elements. The Waterfront Commission was established short ly thereafter to police waterfront labor, and it has been in constant conflict with the union. Sudan Rebels inq Out CAIRO, Egypt ( British Gov Gen. Sir Alexander Knox hurried back to the Sudan today to strengthen government efforts to force the surrender of 200 army mutineers holding out in a south ern province of the upper Nile territory. Before leaving for Khartoum. Knox planned to confer with Pre mier Carnal Abdel Nasser and Maj. Salah Salem, Egyptian min ister of Sudanese affairs. Earlier this week Britain reject ed an Egyptian proposal that the two nations send a Joint military force to quell the mutiny. The British said the Sudanese were coping adequately with the rebellion. Britain and Egypt are winding up their 66-year Joint rule of the muuon-square-mile Sudan. They announced yesterday they would withdraw their 1,600 troops still in the territory by about Nov. 12, In preparation lor election of a Suda nese assembly which will choose between independence or 'union with Egypt. Sudanese Premier Ismail el Azhari told a news conference in Khartoum yesterday that the orig inal mutineers still holding out in Torit, in the south Sudan, had sent word by radio they would surren der only to British or Egyptian troops. He said they also demanded the withdrawal of north Sudanese troops sent south to combat the mutiny. The Premier said the mutiny appeared to have been caused by a misunderstanding rooted in the long-standing enmity between the more advanced Arabic north Suda nese and the primitive Negro Southerners. see what a difference C-"H makes ...IN CANNING AND COOKING 8UCCESS &m i & t f y cane t. 1) '?KJ SU9ar MTH ONIY CAHE SUGAR REFINED IN THE WEST!
