(AP)-A Walkout of nearly 200.000 workers in the giant meat processing in dustry next month was threatened today on issues similar to those involved in the continuing steel strike. Union officials said the indus try's two major unions, the Amal gamated Meat ' Cutters and the Packinghouse Workers, have met much the same management waijc freeze and other proposals lor stockyard workers as were ex perienced in the steel dispute, AFL-CIO leaders, meeting in summer session here, expressed concern Mat the si eel strike is a symptom of what they consider a growing management refusal to give workers a share in expanding industry profits. The International Union of Elec tiical Workers, voting a $100,000 donation to the steel strikers, said big business generally has decided to "wro,ek the hard-won gains of workers" and reverse the system of sharing prolits with labor. the two meat industry, unions, alter nearly a month of bargain in;:, have met an almost solid front of packer proposals to freeze present wage rales, averaging about $2.50 an hour. In a further similarity to the steel bargaining picture, the pack ing unions say they also face com pany proposals to give employers freer hand in achieving man potter and other economies. Like the steel strikers, the meat processing workers seek wage boosts of about 15 cents per hour. Both packing unions are d.'iking strike votes. The workers in many plants were said to have already authorized a strike Sept. 1 when current three-year contracts ex pire. However, both unions said they hoped bargaining develop inpnts in the near future would avert any shutduwn. Members of Ihe AFL-CIO Execu tiye Council were expected to ap prove today a plan to mobilize all AFL-CIO unions behind the steel strike. The plan includes a rally of all union officers at San Francisco on Sept. IS, as part of the AFL-CIO's biennial convention, in behalf of the steel strikers. One proposal under considera tion would call for a penny a day allotment from every AFL-CIO member for the strikers a move that could yield up to four million dollars a month in strike aid, F'ederation chiefs also are ex peeled to appeal to President Eisenhower to call steel manage ment and labor into White House conferences in' an effort to end the stalemate.

Name Change Confirmed ANKARA, Turkey (AP) - The headquarters of the Baghdad Pad confirmed today that the Middle hast anti-Communist alliance has changed lis name lo the Central Treaty Organization. There was no indication how the alliance will now be known col loquially, but it probably won't he the obvious CET0.' That ould . sound Just like the working name ot Ihe Southeast Asia Trcaly Or ganizalion. The Baghdad alliance originally made up of Britain, Iran, Iraq Pakistan and Turkey. It took its name from the Iraqi capital, in which it was organized in 1IW3 and where it had its headquarters originally. The "Baghdad" lag became misnomer after the Iraqi revolu tion last year when the headquar ters moved to Ankara and Iraq withdrew from the alliance. The change of name was report ed Tuesday in Tehran. Wednesday British Foreign Olfice spokes man said the report was prema ture. Today Ankara headquarters made the change of name official. arrive In Washington Sept. IS for the start of a 12-day lour of (lie country. When he returns from his coast-to-coast travels, Eisen hower may take him to secluded Camp David in Maryland's Ca toctin Mountains for a final chat. This would afford Eisenhower a chance to speak to Khrushchev personally after the Soviet leader sees the United Stales first-hand. A major aim in inviting Khrush chev here has been to dispel what have been called his misconcep tions about the freedom and strength of America. ' An original estimate . that Khrushchev would spend two to three days in Washington has now been lengthened to three or four days. The two men's talks on East-West issues would pick up in pace only after initial cere monial functions due a visiting government head are out of the way. Exact details on where Khrush chev will go and when are still being worked out in U.S.-Soviet negotiations. But due to Soviet re strictions, he will get only a limited and hurried view of the country. ' The Soviets have set the time limit of 12 days on Khrushchev's visit. They have turned down U.S. sightseeing suggestions while sticking to their own, and the basic decision is up to them. As a result, Khrushchev now seems likely to cross the country by airplane, with only limited auto travel, taking in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Iowa farmland and perhaps Pittsburgh. He probably will not sightsee by light plane or detour to Texas and Florida or the Tennessee Valley area. The arrangements are being made on the basis of reciprocity lo be accorded Eisenhower when he pays his return visit lo the Soviet Union this fall. No date has been set (or the President's trip. So many newsmen have applied lo cover Khrushchev's tour that not all may be allowed to go in the official press parly. This is. on grounds that Khrushchev can't got to see the country if he is constantly surrounded by crowds ol reporters and photographers. It is likely that only one press plane will accompany the Khrush chev entourage. The Soviets are expected lo veto any proposal Ihat more than one press plane follow Eisenhower through the Soviet Union. WASHINGTON (AP) House backers of legislation to broaden Ihe civil rights laws were conced ing today their hopes of action this year bave almost vanished. They were blaming an unplanned combination of Soviet Premier Ni kita Khrushchev and Southern Democrats. Khrushchev s contribution was to build up. overwhelming senti ment for Congress to adjourn early in September merely by scheduling his visit' to this country lor Sept. 15. The Southerners as usual are fighting civil rights action with de Video Comic Helps Girl MOSCOW, Idaho (AP) Red Skelton, the television comic, has been telephoning a hospital here this week to chat with a 10-year oid girl suffering from leukemia, the blood disease which claimed the life of Skelton's 9-year-old son, Richard. Somebody notified Skelton that Mardella Kleer, of nearby Deary, enjoyed his television programs. The comic ordered a special set for Mardella's room because none was available at the hospital. The girl celebrated her tenth birthday Sunday and Skelton, who is off for the summer, promised a "special" show for her in the future. Doctors said Mardella, who eh tered the hospital two weeks ago when her condition worsened, has never been happier. laying tactics. If Congress speeds up its ad journment, there will almost cer tainly not be time for the civil rights forces to maneuver their way around the Southern road blocks. And there is a growing expecta tion that Congress without mak ing the action too obvious will adjourn long enough in advance of Khrushchev's arrival to make sure the legislators won't be faced with the embarrassment of a pos sible appearance of the Soviet chief at a joint session. The chances for enactment of a new civil rights bill at this session seemed today to rest on a pos sible change of mind by the South erners. Some of them are known to be arguing privately that 'it might be wise to permit an early vote on the watered-down version of Presi dent Eisenhower's civil rights pro posals which has been favorably reported by the House Judiciary Committee. The arguments are that inevit ably, some sort of civil rights law will be passed before next year's presidential election. The bill now snagged in the House has been stripped of the features the South erners opposed "most strenuously. In 1960, with both parties fighting for minority group voles, compe- tion might result in a far tougher civil rights bill. One backer of ciil rights legis lation, a veteran of the 1957 battle which put the present law on the books, said onty such a change of strategy could permit enactment of a new bill this year. Another, Rep. Emanuel Cellcr 'D-NY) contended in an interview that some Republicans on the House Rules Committee, which handles the bill next, were allied with Southern Democrats to delay it and that GOP Leader Charles A. Halleck of Indiana "is the grand architect" of this strategy. Halleck was not immediately available for comment. If Southern members of the Rules Committee pick up enough Republican help, the committee cculd sit out the rest of the ses sion without releasing the bill. In the Senate, Southerners have established a bottleneck in the Ju diciary Committee. Seeking a way around, Sen. Thomas C. Hennings Jr. ID-Mo) Jias laid the ground work for attaching civil rights leg islation to a bill already passed by the House and pending in the Senate. But even if he should succeed despite Southern Senators' talk ol filibuster, the resulting bill would still have to return to the House and the jurisdiction of tha House Rules Committee.
