Six hundred members of the Flight Engineers International As- sociation left their jobs at Eastern in a protest against taking pilot training courses, and 7,500 members of the International Association of Machinists joined them in a sympathy walkout. Trans World Airlines was immobilized in the fourth day of a strike by IAM employes after a breakdown of contract negotiations. American Threatened A third major carrier, American Airlines, was threatened with a strike by 1,491 pilots, members of the Air Line Pilots Association in a 'Western Experts Study Plans To Force Armed Transports Through Blockade of Berlin OUTLOOK IN FRANCE: Tus.,CBrst ITU~loses It Lfl . ,'Momentary S es Slow Travel Plans "Keep your fingers crossed or take a train.' This is the way that an official of one local travel bureau summed up the situation for holders of reservations on six airlines. The lines which she referred to were Trans-World Airlines and East- ern Airlines which are now on strike and North Central, Lake Central, American and North- western Airlines which she said may go on strike "momentarily." Officials of Northwestern and North Central said that they have no strike and that there is no like- lihood of a strike at their lines. American Airlines officials said that there "was no way of telling what will happen at American," therefore they cannot advise tick- etholders on what course they should pursue. However, one American pilot expressed the opinion that "there will be no strike at American," Eastern officials stated that they were "definitely planning to resume flights on Wednesday morning." ,Lake Central officials stated that only their stewardesses were on strike and that their planes were still running on full schedule. Officials of airlines concerned and several local travel bureaus expressed the hope that the situ- ation would be under control by Sunday, but these people were un- willing to definitely predict that this will ha'ppen. Junior Year Abroad Plan Report Given By RUTHANN RECHT "A junior year abroad program of our own would benefit the 'Uni- versity," Benjamin W. Wheeler, faculty counselor for special pro- grans said yesterday at the liter- ary college steering committee meeting. Wheeler, who has returned from the Conference on Student Travel, held at New York in October, re- ported his findings of programs at other colleges to the committee. "The programs are broad, em- phasizing foreign language study and study in other related areas," Wheeler said. These include hu- manities, courses In the cultures of the different countries and so- cial sciences. Many students study the natural sciences in universi- ties such as Munich and Vienna. One Major Difficulty The schools which have sent students to study abroad have found one major area of difficul- ty, he said; relations with the citi- iens of diferent communities. The groups of students are sometimes looked upon as alienated foreign- ers. , "To remedy this situation, a preparatory program was suggest- ed," Wheeler continued. In this program the students would have an orientation program on the culture and customs of the coun- try they are to visit. "Many stu- dents know little about our own culture," he added, This knowl- edge by an orientation program and special training would be a prerequisite for learning about the culture of other countries. Problem of Finance ispute involving pay, rules and working conditions. The airlines labor picture also included a new strike yesterday by 33 members of the Airline Stew- ards and Stewardesses Association against Lake Central Airlines, an employe-owned m i d w e s t firm whichecontinued flight operations with executives and administra- tive personnel replacing the strik- ers. Capital Airlines, a major op- erator, was busy re-establishing service after settling a strike by IAM machinists Friday with a three-year agreement which would bring pay up 41 cents an hour in the third year, to $2.95 an hour. West Coast Strike A strike by 86 mechanics at West Coast Airlines, serving 411 cities in Washington, Oregon and Idaho was ended yesterday by a new contract agreement. The strikes at Trans World and Eastern brought into play a re- cent mutual aid agreement among six major airlines - American, Capital, Eastern, Trans World, Pan American and United Air Lines. Some equipment of the struck lines was taken over by other members of the compact to meet' increased passenger, mail and cargo loads. Union Blas,-ts Study Policy WASHINGTON (AI)-A striking union accused Eastern Air Lines yesterday of trying to force un- needed pilot training on flight engineers in order to push them out of jet age jobs. George R. Petty Jr., president of the Flight Engineers' International Assn., said both the company and the pilots are trying to make job vacancies for pilots at the expense of aircraft and engine mechanics. Petty said in a statement: "In addition to wages and working conditions the principal issue is whether the mechanical specialist flight engineer on Eastern Air Lines should be forced to learn to fly a Piper Cub in order to keep his place on 600 m.p.l. jet air- craft." The "third seat" behind the controls of an airliner now is held by a flight engineer who some- times is, but need not be, a li- censed flier. -Daily-Allan Winder "AURA" APPEARS-The bronze and silver modernistic sculpture given to the University by the Class of 1958 and designed by Prof. McClure has finally been erected in the Undergraduate Library's exhibition room. The only addition yet to be made is the name- date. Library Erects Sculpture' Designed by Prof. McClure' "Aura," the $1,500 bronze and silver gift of the Class of 1958, is up in the Undergraduate Library. The modernistic sculpture designed by Prof. Thomas McClure of the architecture and design school. was put up in the exhibition room on the first floor of the library at 10 a.m. Sunday. "It. only took a couple of hours," Prof. McClure said, explaining that he had no particular trouble in erecting the art object. "We Exp los ions Ruin Plants RANDOLPH, Mass. W)-Three explosions, each followed by huge sheets of flame, yesterday de- stroyed the main plants of two adjacent fireworks companies, killing one man and injuring seven other persons. The victim, John Vizziello, 64 years old, of Boston, was so badly burned that the body was un- identified for more than three hours. Authorities at first believed the body was that of a woman. Iden- tification was made, largely, through a large belt buckle which Vizziello was known to have been wearing. The deafening blasts turned the production centers of the Rock- land Fireworks Co. and the Bay State Fireworks Co. into piles of rubble. Damage was estimated at more than $100,000. Vizziello and about three others were at work in the Rockland Plant at the time. No one was in the Bay State Plant. Two of the injured were in serious condition. They are Lewis Massere, 32 years old, one of nine brothers who own Rockland, and a woman identified as Emily Mag- nussen, about 22 years old, of Randolph. fastened it on a wooden frame and carried it over from my stu- dio." At the library the statue was fastened to the back panel de- signed especially to support it. Prof. McClure also had to add a few sections to the eight-foot structure that were removed to enable it to fit in his studio where it has been stored. "The only thing left to be done is the name plate which is at the foundry now. It will probably be ready in a week or so," Prof. Mc-. Clure said. The modernistic sculpture is' fastened above a special 1,700-lb. slate slab that was shipped to the Unviersity from Vermont. Chief Backs Department In a statement issued yesterday, Ann Arbor Fire Chief Ernest Hel- ler criticized "those well-inten- tioned but misinformed persons who are attempting to defend the Fire Department" in its handling of the Nov. 10 fire fatal to Dr. Aaron R. Edwards of the Univer-' sity Hospital staff and his two daughters. Following the fire at the Ed- wards home at 916 .Church St., charges and counter-charges have appeared, both verbally and in letters to The Daily and The Ann Arbor News, about action taken by firemen and city police officers at the scene. Chief Heller said it wis his be- ilef that the fire was fought "with the best equipment available" and that "no time was lost in receiv- ing the request for help." "Every effort was made to en- ter the house and rescue the oc- cupants," he said. "How the blaze gained such a terrific headway before it was discovered may never be known. I feel that further let- ter-writing or charges against any department or individual can be of little help." Ann Arbor, State Papers Striking members of the Inter- national Typographical Union are expected to force The Ann Arbor News to suspend publication of today's edition. The News will follow the Grand Rapids Herald as the second of the nine members of Booth News- papers, Inc., to be hit by the walk- out. Other papers in the chainaare in Bay City, Jackson, Saginaw, Flint, Kalamazoo and Muskegon. In a prepared statement, News manager George P. McCallum said, "Union printers employed by the News have indicated they will not report for work this morning. First Closure "For the first time since this newspaper and its predecessors were established 124 years ago," the statement read, "we are forced to miss publication because of a strike." The statement continued, "Our relations with ITU, extending over a period of nearly 40 years in Ann Arbor, heretofore have been friendly and cooperative." It ex- pressed "deep regret" over the strike, "which now interrupts the service of news and advertising in The Ann Arbor News. "We have offered the union wages which are in excess of the national average for comparable newspapers," the statement said. "Our welfare policies have been models for the trade. Fail to Talk "The present break," it de- clared, "follows a period in which the Union has failed to negotiate in accordance with honored cus- tom. They have persisted in de- mands which are far in excess of any settlement in the newspaper business." The statement concluded, "We hope that publication may be re- sumed in the near future." News editor Arthur Gallagher said that, although there are "no plans to publish," the editorial staff will report as usual. Negotiations between the Booth chain and the union had been continuing in Lansing, although the ITU contract had expired Oct. 1. Ask Wage Hike The dispute reportedly has the union asking either a 13 cents an hour increase on a new one-year contract, or 13 and 10 cents on another two-year pact. The ITU has said the present journeyman salary is $3.12 an hour. There was no immediate state- ment from the ITU. TP men at the Grand Rapids Press, afternoon paper, also walked out, stopping publication of the Press' "Bulldog" edition. Pickets appeared at both the Her- ald and the Press and also the Jackson Citizen-Patriot. Other daily newspapers in the Booth group, all of which are afternoon publications, are in Bay City, Ann Arbor, Jackson, Sagi- naw, Flint, Kalamazoo and Mus- kegon.

At the same time it was con- firmed that the Army's first space probe, tentatively set for launch- ing from Cape Canaveral, Fla., next week, will be much lighter and simpler than the Air Force Pioneer Lunar probe. The Army probe will be' launched with a new rocket com- bination called Juno. This is a modified Jupiter Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile topped by three solid propellant rocket stages much like the upper stages of the Jupiter-C combination that launched the Explorer satellites. The Army probe will be set to pass the moon at a distance of 10,000 to 50,000 miles and travel on into the gravitational field of the sun, possibly to become a baby planet. ,Ike Order Evaluations Augusta, Ga. (A) - President Dwight D. Eisenhower today or- dered a penetrating evaluation of the United States military aid pro- gram with the goal of bolstering free world defenses. Republican William H. Draper, Jr., Undersecretary of the Army in the Truman administration and a former ambassador to NATO under President Eisenhower was named chairman of a nine-mem- ber committee with wide experi- ence in key government jobs. Draper, 64, directed the Berlin airlift from Washington during the Communist blockade nearly 10 years ago. He now makes his home in Mexico City. The appointment of Draper was to lead what President Eisenhower termed "a completely independent, objective, non-partisan analysis" of the military assistance program. PARIS (A-A compact rightist group called de Gaullists will be riding high in France's new National Assembly. Paradoxically, they may cause Premier Charles de Gaulle a pack e urauutists LdCaltlg In Assembly Elections pears clear; de Gaulle will be lead- ing with a hard core of deputies with less liberal thinking than himself on that North African territory. A solid chunk of per- haps even more conservative dep- uties is expected to be sent to Paris from Algeria in Algerian balloting next weekend. Last month de Gaulle took the unprecedented step of proposing safe passagerfor top rebel leaders to discuss ac cease-fire in the four-year-old rebellion. A lively discussion developed over wheth- er this might not amount to quas-official recognition of the rebel organization. De Gaulle earlier had proposed a sweeipng five-year plan for boosting the economic and xph tical status of Algeria's depressed nine million North Africans, a plan with a high price tag for France. While trumpeting allegiance to de Gaulle, a number of the candi- dates who scored well Sunday'find his Algerian thinking hard to stomach. De Gaulle would have preferred a substantial moderate bloc to second him on Algeria and act as a counterweight to the die-hards. However, the vote all but si- lenced the serious minded moder- ate opposition. India Asks S pace Peace UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (A)~- India and two other nations pro- posed yesterday that the United States and the Soviet Union get together in order to break the East-West deadlock on outer space. Burma and the United Arab Republic joined India in putting a formal resolution before the United Nations political committee as it approached a vote on crea- tion of a study group to lay the groundwork for a permanent United Nations outer space body. The resolution would have the United Nations call on the United States and the Soviet Union to form a two-nation committee to consider peaceful and constructive uses of outer space. It would instruct the two powers to report to the General Assembly "on an urgent basis" on an agreed and practical approach to the problem. India and other neutral nations had 'expressed belief that East- West approval is vital to any United Nations proposal dealing with outer space. liritish Party Asks Neutral Peace Policy LONDON (- - Britain's Labor Party says it will seek to neutralize Central Europe, Formosa and the Middle East if it wins power in national elections expected to be held next year. These foreign policy goals were a main plank in a 6,000-word elec- tion platform issued yesterday. Along with a detailed disarma- ment program, they were offered as the basis of a British peace initiative to end the cold war. The election manifesto declared a Labor-ruled Britain could break through fear and suspicion threat- ening to destroy the world in nu- clear war.I Broadly the Laborites pledged to slow down on Socialist measures at home but to adopt a more leftist line abroad.

Lord Mayor Brandt Terms Submission Impossible Idea' BERLIN () - Western experts last night studied - many with grave doubts - proposals to ram armed convoys through any Com- , munist blockade of West Berlin, Talk of tank led convoys and. armored trains is heard1 from somex Western officials in the event of an East German blockade of this isolated city. It is on propoed answe if- Iisoepooeanwras expected shortly-the Russians transfer to East Germany their controls over Western lifelines to West Berlin. The West Germans are balking at an alternative plan under study by the United States, Britain and France for accepting East Germauz controls on a nonrecognition basis. "I think it is an impossible idea. that the Western powers .. .place themselves under the control of the regime in East Germany," said West Berlin's Lord Mayor Willy Brandt in a radio interview yes- terday. In Bonn, West German Foreign Office sources said the get-tough idea is gaining ground among the Western allies. But the prospect that the Coin-" munists might start shooting, makes many shudder. To understand why, It is only necessary to look at the practical military problems of r ~nng a gauntlet to West Berlin, 110 miles behind the Iron Curtain. The bulk of supplies for'Western garrisons come in on a railroad from West Germany. The military train - under four - power accords - are pulled into West Berlin from th' West German border by Corn- munist engines. Armored trains would not have much chance of breaking through if the East Germans decided to leave strings of freight cars park- ed on the rail. Dulles.Lays, Firm Policy Agaminst Reds J' . WASHINGTON (A-Secretary of State John Foster Dulles as- serted yesterday the Western powers will act with "unity ind firmness" to defend West Beln against Communist threats. yHe emphasized this united an4' to dispel reports that the n States, Britain, France and West..

He left the way open for ;a future such meeting with these words: "The Sovlets could always makez one necessary, but we don't know yet what their plans are.
