AGE I HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Monday, October 16, 1961 Move May Stall Ford Pact , DETROIT IAP-The Ford Mo I9r Co. aimed today at having its 120.000 production workers back at their jobs by Wednesday, the Uniled Auto Workers Sunday hav ing ordered local unions to call off strikes at ail but two of Ford's 85 plants'. There was doubt, however, just how far Ford could go without settlement at one of the two plants still struck the Walton Hilts stamping plant outside Cleveland. Ohio, which employs 3,300 and makes pressed metal parts for all of Ford's car divj. eions. A strike at Walton Hills a year ago began to take Ford assembly lines down in six days, and a un ion spokesman predicted today that If this plant were not back , working in nine days, all Ford as sembly lines would be affected Beside authorizing workmen at Walton Hills to continue their strike In support of local-level de mands, the UAW's International executive board told the 1,700 env ployes Sunday it represents in an engine factory at Wayne, Mich, they could continue their walkout for an at-the-plant settlement to supplement the national contract. Ford and the UAW reached agreement last Thursday on new three-year national contract that carried wage and fringe inr provements which the union ei- tlmated worth more than 12 cents hourly in take-home pay, Similar: benefits had been won earlier at American Motors Corp. and Gen eral Motors Corp. Chrysler Corp. Is the next tar. get for UAW bargainers. Chys- Ier negotiations, as had Ford's, have been allowed to slide whilel ' the union hammered away else, where, On the strength of its national contract and a series of local set tlements Ford summoned about a third of its 120,000 production workers back today. It said main tenance workers would be re. called to others, that most pro duction workers would be back onl tli6 job Tuesday and all by Wednesday, it hoped. While agreeing to a new nation. wide wage and fringe benefits package Thursday, the UAW au thorized workers at a score of Ford plants to continue' strikes in support of local-level demands. Seven units, representing 13,000 within Local 600 at Ford huge Rouge plant in suburban Dear born, were the only ones outside Wayne and Walton Hills which had not reached at-the-plant agreements when the UAW s ex. ecutive board met Sunday to re. view the situation. , The board ordered the Rouge, workers back to their jobs, say-1 ing continuance of a local-level strike there "over the few 're maining unresolved issues" was not justified. The board said, however, nego tiations would continue "in the ef fort to find satisfactory answers to the remaining legitimate prob lems." It added Ford had agreed to this course. There were indications from the board that the Walton Hills dis pute might be a thorny one. The UAW chiels said the company was attempting to cancel out established work rules there and they supported "the legitimate position of the local union in in sisting upon a continuance.'' The UAW authorized a com. pany-wide strike against Ford Oct. 3 to support its national con tract demands, then when agree ment was reached on a new over all economic package last .Thurs day, it authorized locals without aMhe-plant agreements to contin ue striking. At one plant where agreement was reached Sunday, however, a strike had been in progress since July 26. That strike was at Ford's St. Louis assembly plant, where 1,000 had walked out in a dispute over production standards and re. lief time accorded workers. Top Berlin Commander Is Veteran Of Two Yars WASHINGTON (AP) - Silver haired Maj. Gen: Albert Watson II, the U.S. commander in Berlin, has poise and humor and quotes poetry. He's also a rough and tough fighting man, a veteran of two wars. And he's very confident that West Berlin will continue to stand free and grow economically. "I'm not worried one cotton picking bit," he says. ' Watson accompanied Gen. Lu cius D. Clay, President Kennedy's personal representative In Berlin on a tour of the city's Communist controlled Eastern Sector Sunday night. This was an apparent dem onstratlon of Western rights to move freely in all parts of the divided city. Bora Jan. 5, 1909, the former Mount Vernon, 111., boy has packed a lot of action into his; 52 years. There were me curry bloody days of World. War II at Hollandia, New Guinea, Leyte and Okinawa. And then, less, than a decade ago, the bitterly cold win ters of war In Korea. Watson started soldiering as an artilleryman, but the many as signments that followed have qualified him, literally, as a gen eral officer. Midway In his career he was a student and later a member of the faculty at the Army War Col lege. Taught there are not only strategy and tactics but also geo politics the geographic, political and economic factors In military plans and doctrine. Nowhere more than in Berlin1 does a man need understanding of Iternationah perplexities as well. as Dame plans. Watson is no stranger to Ger many. Before he was given the Berlin command last May he had served as commander of two in fantry divisions stationed in West Germany. He had learned to speak some German. He has con tinued his studies and become reasonably fluent in the language. Watson started out with the artillery when horses were still hauling gun carriages. He liked horses, and It was natural that polo should come easily to the young West Pointer.. The. general also Is rated as a fair to good golfer and tennis player. But Berlin these days is a busy place, and the time for polo, golf, or tennis is almost non existent. Mrs. Watson is the former Annel Dunlap Bucher of Lewisburg, Pa, They have two sons, Albert III and John B. Watson. Black Bear Mauls Three Scout Rocket Shot Set To Explore Ionosphere WASHINGTON (AP)-A Scout rocket designed to climb 4.500 miles In one hour will be fired this week.

He said he didn't think the color of a per son's hair was very important. My first impulse was to go over to the girl's house and tear her blonde hair out by the black roots. Mv husband said to calm down and write to you for advice. What kind of an idiot girl would do such a thing? Please hurry your ronlv and tell us what to do. JUstf FURIOUS Dear Just: And what kind of an idiot boy would allow a girl to tint his hair? Relax folks, a henna rinse will wash out as you have probably discovered by now.

Just tell me what to do. Last week I sprained my ankle on my way home from work. This fellow I've been going with for five years asked me how it happened. When I told him I stepped off the curb wrong he said "You must have been loaded." He knows good and well that 1 never touch liquor, in fact his nickname for me is "Blue-Nose." The more 1 tried to explain the more he insisted I was drunk. I became very annoyed and told him not to call me again. The problem is he owes me $1100. I'm afraid he'll use this as an excuse, not to pay me. I've invested five good years in him and he promised to marry me when his boss retires. Wouldn't I be a fool to give him this perfect out?

Now we .have them every night and I'm ready to flip. These in-laws are in their early I 50 s, in good health and have win ed a church. There's no reason why they can t have friends their own age. My wife does not encourage them nor is she the dependent type. In fact she asked me to write for advice. TOM t Dear Tom: Your wife is there. I'm here. I can't tell her parents to leave you alone and make a social life of their own. Your wife can and she should. Now. . Are you going steady? Making marriage plans?

WASHINGTON (AP) - Encour aged by their private polls.aDem ocrats are putting new- punch into efforts to defeat Republican, nominee James P. Mitchell in the New Jersey governor's race. Mitchell, former secretary of labor in the Eisenhower Cabinet, generally is regarded as the fa vorite over Democrat Richard J. Hughes in one of the few contests that hold national significance in this year's elections. Democratic Gov. Robert B. Meyner has held the office since 1953 and was not eligible to run again this year. Democrats at national head quarters here are talking more and mo confidently about the possibility of a Nov. 7 victory which would be a blow to e publican revival hopes in 'Jie in dustrial East. They say their polls show Hughes making signi ficant gains. If Mitchell can win the New Jersey governorship, the Repub licans hope to go into the 1964 presidential election with New York and New Jersey state house control, which carries with it or ganizational benefits denied to the outs. The Republicans already have the Massachusetts governorship which they will seek to hold next year. Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller of New York also will be a can didate for reelection next year. There will be strong Republican bids in 1962 to turn the Democrats out in Pennsylvania and Con necticut. In I960 President Kennedy car ried Massachusetts by more lha a half million votes. But he won New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl vania and Connecticut, represent ing 101 electoral votes, by rela tively narrow margins. All had Democratic governors except New Pakistan Camel Cart Driver Given Gilt Edge Care By Vice President JOHNSON CITY, Tex. (AP) Vice President Lyndon B. John son plans today to give a Pakistan camel cart driver the same gilt edge treatment that has charmed heads of nations. Bashir Ahmad, 44, who sports a flowing black mustache, and! Johnson arrived at the latter central Texas ranch Sunday night. London fog and the ground ing of American civil flights in. Sky Shield II combined to cause a delay of almost 12 hours. "Two of my prayers have been answered,0 Bashir told Mrs. Johnson, who met him and the vice president at the air strip bacK ot the lbj Ranch house. "One prayer was that our family was in good health and the other was that I would come to Amer ica." . , The camel driver then was whisked to the ranch house in a jeep flying the Pakistan flag. "Ranchers and cattlemen here do not use camels, but we are familiar with the problems that face your country," Johnson told! Bashir. "When you return, I hope! you will feel much closer to the American people." The vice president planned to take Bashir on a tour similar to sightseeing trips given President Kennedy, German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, Pakistan Pres ident Ayub Khan, and Mexico's President Adolfo Lopez Mateos Bashir's trip originally was sched uled for July 4 but was delayed until after the visit of the Pakis tan President. ' , Today's schedule called for a visit to the Pedernales Electric Cooperative in Johnson City and a noon barbecue attended by some of Johnson 8 neighbors. Johnson will take his guest Tuesday on 'a tour of Six Flags Over Texas, an entertainment center near Dallas, and then to the Stat Fair in Dallas' where Bashir will be honored at a cere mony in front of the Hall of State. They will go to Washington by plane late Tuesday. The vice president first greeted the camel driver when Bashir ar rived in New York Sunday aboard a jet airliner from London. Johnson to whom Bashir re fers as "the deputy king" first met the camel driver while the! vice president was touring Pakis-! tan last spring. As he shook hands with Bashir, Johnson said, "Come over and see me." and Bashir accepted. American busi-, ness men made the trip pos sible under the People-to-People program. York, where Kennedy got 52.6 per cent of thjp popular vote. His total in New Jersey was only 50.4 per cent of the vote. It was 51.2 per cent in Pennsylvania and 53.7 pei cent in Connecticut. Republicans have made a lot of noise about Mitchell's race. His victory in the state primary was hailed as an indication that liber al members of the party have pulling power at the polls despite declarations by Sen. Barry Gold water, R-Ariz., that a wave of conservatism is sweeping the country. Former President Dwight D. Eisenhower contributed financial ly to Mitchell's primary campaign and will go into the state this month to give a personal boost to his former Cabinet member. Mitchell has shied away from other national campaigners with the feeling that their importation might cast doubt on his ability to stand on his own feet. However, Sen. Clifford P. Case, R-N.J., has lent his New Jersey political ace, Sam Zagoria, to Mitchell as campaign director. The senator personally has been campaigning hard for Mitchell. Republicans have pushed regis tration drives with the result that counties which usually support GOP nominees have shown steep increases, while registrations Democratic county strongholds F.iphtv fivp of the 105 coun ties in Kansas have been produc ers of oil or gas.

(UPI) -i A prop-jet Electra plane with stuck landing gear and 40 persons on board made an emergency landing on a cushion of foam at Carswell Air Force Base today. Nobody was hurt. The plane was slightly damaged. The plane was Braniff Interna tional Airways' Flight 562, bound from Dallas to Chicago, with in termediate stops at Oklahoma City, Wichita, Kan., and Kansas City, Mo. It flew in circles over Dallas, its home base, for five hours and 25 minutes before setting down at Carswell, a Strategic A I r Force Base west of Dallas. 'It was a beautiful landing," said an Air Force man who! watched fhii pilot, Capt. Fred Mills, bring the plane in. Mills had the passengers there were 44 of them and five crew men sit with their heads in pil lows placed across their knees. He made them empty their pock ets of everything sharp. I tie plane skidded down the long runway in shower of sparks. It listed slightly as It stopped then the passengers were rushed through the exits. "There was no sign of panic," the Rev. J. E. Barwell. 37, pastor of the Venus. Tex. Baptist Church said. "I doubt If there was any one praying, but I was." He said that iiller the pilot P told them what was going on there was nothing to do but wait He said there was considerable joking; some passengers even slept while the plane circled. Part of the plane's landing gear was stuck in the "up" position. Before the pilot landed, he re tracted the part of the gear that still worked, except for a few In ches. The plane landed at Carswell, rather than civilian Love Field at Dallas, because Carswcll's run ways are longer and its firefight ing facilities better.
