Arab League nations were reported gravely concerned over the Iraqi claim and Kuwait's future. Iraq denounced a British pledge to defend Kuwait and re- asserted its claim of sovereignty over the Persian gulf territory. Postpone Departure A dispatch from Kuwait said Iraq's move had prompted British warships and soldiers to postpone their departure from the former British protectorate.

Pears (R-Buchanan) said that "as it turned out, the special session was a waste of time." He said it was valuable in that legislators had an opportunity to get additional information on the two new bills. "However, many leg- islators believe that the call for a special session was poorly timed.

Members of the AFL-CIO execu- tive council adopted a statement at a meeting in Unity, Pa. saying the maritime unions' offer to lift the strike for movements of food, fuel and other essential supplies would safeguard the nation's health and safety and remove the need for an 80-day injunction.

House Minority Leader Jo- seph J. Kowalski (D-Detrolt) said the lack of action on the ADC bill "is the most stupid thing the Republicans have ever done." Swainson Comments Swainson said the Republicans have "demonstrated beyond doubt that they are unresponsive to the needs of the citizens of Michi- gan." "After depriving thousands of our youth of a college education, after shutting the doors of hos- pitals to the mentally ill and re- tarded, after short-changing loyal state employes through inadequate appropriations, the Republicans came back to tell the citizens of Michigan they cannot have re- turned to them more than $25 million in federal taxes they have sent to Washington," he said. ran, president of the National Maritime Union said he had reach- ed a tentative settlement with major shipping lines last Tuesday only to have them back down. Curran blamed Goldberg for having played an unwitting part in failure of the deal. Curran said it collapsed after Goldberg last Thursday proposed a 60-day strike truce while a government board recommended settlement terms-- a plan accepted by shipowners but rejected by the Union. "I'm not saying that Goldberg torpedoed the settlement," Curran said, "but he made it possible for it to be torpedoed. "Someone in the government left the impression with the shipown- ers they would be bailed out. The oil companies told the shipping negotiators to stand pat because the foreign flag issue was so hot the government would bail them out."
