Says Holtzoff
Unions Will Settle
If Officials Promise
To Meet Conditions
WASHINGTON (M--A two-day
railroad firemen s strike, which
disrupted segments of the nation's
economy, appeared to be nearing
an end last night under the gun
of a judge's back-to-work order.
H. E. Gilbert, firemen's presi-
dent, said he would call off the
walkout if certain conditions were
met by the railroads. They in-
cluded: no reprisals against the
strikers, 'no damage suits against
the union.
J. E. Wolfe, chief negotiator for
the railroads, pledged there would
be no reprisals against individual
workers.
Misled
"We feel that these men were
' misled by the union officers," he
told newsmen in Chicago.
He added that the question of'
filing damage suits, or of seeking
contempt action against union
leaders, would be up to each rail-
road, president.
Earlier in the day, a federal
appeals court declined, 2 to 1, to
stay a restraining order issued
against the strike by U.S. Dist.
Judge: Alexander Holtzoff in
Washington.
Results of Disruption
The strike, conducted by 8,000'
S'firemen against eight railroads in
38 states, disrupted service on
43,000 miles of line, with these
results:
-Layoffs or shortened worktime
for some 100,000 workers including
65,000 auto workers, highway traf-
fic jams, tie-ups in freight move-
* ments, stranded passengers, de-
lays in the mails.
-The Interstate Commerce
Commission acted to give truckers
and bus operators emergency
authority to help fill the gap. ICC
field offices were empowered to
grant temporary permits for move-
ment of passengers and property
beyond present authority.
Eight Railroads Affected
The strike is against eight rail-
roads in 38 states: the Union
Pacific, the country's longest; the
Missouri Pacific, Illinois Central,
Seaboard Air Line, Central of
Georgia, Grand Trunk .Western,
Boston & Maine, and thePennsyl-
vania Railroad west of Harrisburg,
Pa.

Wilson Gets
British Vote
Landslide
Predicts Immirediate
Changes in Cabinet
And Increased Budget
LONDON (RP) -Prime Minister
Harold Wilson won a sweeping
victory yesterday over Conservative
candidate Edward Heath. Compu-
ter analysis of the general election
returns predicted Wilson's Labor
Warty would have a majority of ic
least 95 seats in the House of
Commons.
The formal concession of Ed-
ward Heath and his shocked party
came early yesterday.
"The British people," said
Heath, "have given their verdict.
It is clear that the Labor party
will form the next government."
Things To Come
From Wilson's own entourage
came word that the shape of!
things to come will begin to un-
fold almost immediately:
First, a major shakeup of the
Labor Cabinet seems imminent.
Second, Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer James Callaghan already
is preparing an annual budget ex-
pected to be the toughest since
World War II, with the prospect
of higher taxes and a variety of
measures to galvanize industry.
Crackdown on Rhodesia
Wilson also hinted at a tougher!
crackdown on the breakaway white
minority regime of Rhodesian
prime minister Ian Smith, saying
he now knows the governmentI
he has to deal with for the next
five years."
Laborite left wingers sounded a.
warning for Wilson that they will
step up attacks on Britain's sup-
port for U.S. action in the Viet
Nam war.
"Due to Wilson's slender major-
ity in the last Parliament, we had
to hold our punches a bit on issues
like Viet Nam," said Ian Mikaroo.
SAIGON-The political crisis in
South Viet Nam appeared to be
growing by the hour last night as
Premier Nguyen Cao Ky issued
another stern warning against
demonstrators, United Press In-
ternational reported.
U.S. officials acknowledged for
the first time there was some
danger for American citizens. Civ-
ilians and soldiers were warned
to stay off the streets because
demonstrations had taken an anti-
American tone.
"Manifestations and other civil
disturbances have taken on an
anti-American tone," U.S. Consul
Samuel Thomsen said in Da Nang.
"This situation provides the oppor-
tunity for Communists or other
dissident forces to attempt to act
against Americans."
Predict Ky Downfall
Many knowledgeable Vietnamese
were predicting the Ky govern-
ment would fall, but there were
no predictions as to when this
might take place.
Buddhist and Roman Catholic
leaders who have demanded an
end to Ky's ruling junta and a re-
turn to civilian government were
joined yesterday by the powerful
Cao Dai religious sect which has
a 50,000-man army of its own in
the Mekong Delta.
In Hue, anti-government dem-
onstrators detained Lt. Gen. Pham
Xuan Chieu, the third most pow-
erful government leader, and held
him as hostage under virtual house
arrest in another attempt to top-
ple the Saigon regime.
The current political crisis was
set off when the military junta
dismissed Gen. Nguyen Chanh Thi.
a popular Buddhist leader.
Ouster Damaging
Meanwhile, officials in Washing-
ton would regard the ouster of Ky
and his colleagues as far more
damaging than any of the suc-
cession of government changes would be strengthened and anti-

VIOLENCE FEARED:
Ky Issues New Warning
To Viet Nam Protestors
Overthrow of Ky and his col-
leagues would be considered a
stunning South Vietnamese repu-
diation of the United States, since
the Johnson administration pub-
licly embraced the junta at the
Honolulu conference in February
proclaimed its leaders as partners
in winning the war and rebuild-
ing South Viet Nam, and gave
strong endorsement to its plans
for pacification and other reform
programs.,
Reform Programs
Furthermore, the administration
is said to believe that the reform
programs of the Ky government
are sound, that the major figures
in the military junta are strongly
committed to them and political
stability is vital if these efforts
are to: have any chance of suc-
cess.
The administration is thus des-
perately anxious for the Ky gov-
ernment to survive its troubles.
the Washington officials say.
If the situation reaches an acute
stage, the administration would
have to answer the hard question
whether to move openly to keep
the Saigon regime in power.
Labeled Puppet
But if the U.S. moves overtly
to sustain' Ky, it is felt the Saigon
government, would be labeled a
"puppet" of the U.S., and the U.S.
position on the world scene as the
defender of an invaded country,
would be eroded. Furthermore.
congressional critics of U.S. policy
elements that, whatever their
problems are now, they are likely
to become worse if a change of
government is forced at what the
administration believes is a criti-
cal stage of the war.
A major question that no one
in Washington seems able to an-
swer at this point is the nature
of any government that might suc-
ceed the military junta. In all
likelihood, it is believed, such a
government could be "lived with"
and would prosecute the war, de-
spite the setback to social and
economic programs that might be
caused by the upheaval.
Reports from the central high-
lands said that elementary and
secondary schools were closed yes-
terday as students in Kontum,
Pleiku, and Ban Me Thuo boy-
cotted classes, protesting the mili-
tary government. Some students
barricaded themselves inside their
compounds, ready to defend them-
selves "if necessary."
Students in Dalat managed to
take over the radio station in that
town, while another group in Ban
Me Thuot failed in a similar at-
tempt. Nha Trang students were
reported to have stolen Vietnamese
army trucks and jeeps to patrol
the area around their school. Most
student demonstrations were mild,
but at Qui Nhon, students com-
plaining about the presence of
American troops wired a motor-
cycle for sound to air their com-
plaints.

BULLETIN
CHICAGO (MP-The chief ne-
gotiators for eight struck rail-
roads turned down a union re-
quest last night that any pend-
ing lawsuits be discontinued as
one of the terins for calling off
a crippling railroad strike.
to strike a selected list of rail-
roads, rather than all, in order
to weaken the arguments for fed-
eral action. Most other rail union-
ists are reported respecting picket
lines.
Essentially, the walkout involves
the question of the future of fire-
men in the era of the diesel. The
walkout was called for 12:01 a.m.
Thursday on the expiration of a
1963 ruling by an arbitration board
that the carriers could eliminate
up to 90 per cent of their yard and
freight firemen. Since the ruling,
approximately 18,000 firemen's
jobs have been wiped out.
Reason in Dispute
The exact reason for the strike
is in dispute. Gilbert said it is
because the carriers declined to
negotiate on a union demand for
a program of apprentice training
to fit firemen for engineers' and
other jobs.
Industry officials contend the
real reason is to compel the car-
riers to bargain to restore the jobs
lost by the arbitration award.
Judge Holtzoff granted the tem-
porary restraining order Thurs-
day against the strike, saying:
"We have a war, and also the
entire public is affected, aside from
the war."
Stay the Order
Yesterday, the firemen asked a
U.S. Court of Appeals here to stay
the order. Attoiney Joseph L.
Rauh said the order would "bust
the strike." He contends the walk-
out is legal and that Holtzoff's
order amounts to a finding of con-
tempt without trial.
