Henry Ford
Strike Nears
Agreement
Disputes in Riverview,
Traverse City Still
Block Starr of School
The faculty and administration
of Henry Ford Community Col-
lege in Dearborn reached an
agreement in principle yesterday
to end the four-day old teacher
strike at the schools but details
of the new contract remain to be
resolved.
The agreement between Henry
Ford College Federation of Teach-
ers and the Dearborn Board of
Education, which administers the
school, essentially accepted the
fact-finding report issued by How-
ard Cole of Ann Arbor Thursday.
A meeting of the college's 150
teachers was planned last night
to consider acceptance of the
agreement. James Tobin, attorney
for the Dearborn school board
said he hoped that the board
would also consider the agree-
ment Friday night.
This tentative pact brought hope
for a quick end to one of the three
teachers' walkouts affecting Michi-
gan schools.
Riverview Strike
The Riverview Education Asso-
ciation. charging a violation of
teachers' constitutional rights,
filed suit against the Riverview
Board of Education.
Meanwhile. efforts were under
way to solve a "no contract-no
work" teacher walkout that has
caused officials to place 3,000
children on half days at Traverse
City.
The Riverview association, bar-
gaining agent for the 150 teach-
ers in the Detroit suburb, accused
the board of refusing to bargain
in good faith and imposing "ar-
bitrary and unreasonable condi-
tions" on teachers' return to work.
The Riverview board announced
Thursday it would not negotiate
further with the teachers until
they return to work. The district's
3.000 pupils were to have started
classes Thursday but stayed home
because of the strike.
Arrogant Refusal
The association also charged
the board with "arrogantly refus-
4 ing" to continue negotiations as
requested by the Michigan Labor
Mediation Board, refusing to em-
power its bargaining team to en-
gage in "meaningful negotiations"
and attempting to deprive teachers
of "vested property rights," in-
cluding accumulated leave days
l under previous contracts.
A hearing date on the suit was
not immediately set.
After a marathon series of sep-
arate bargaininig sessions that
ended early yesterday in Traverse
City. the Traverse City Education
Association, bargaining agent for
the teachers, turned down a school
board proposal asking the teach-
ers to return to work.
The board asked the teachers
Thursday night to return to work
The board asked the teachers
Thursday night to return to work
and accept the recommendations
of a state Labor Mediation Board
fact-finder. who suggested tax
money once allocated for a com-
munity college be devoted to tea-
cher salaries.
In a counter-proposal. a spokes-
man for the education association
said the teachers accepted most of
the board's offer. The spokesman
said, however, the association still
sought "the readjustment of cur-
rent budget money" for teacher
salaries.

USSR-Viet Leaders
Meet, Hint Peace Bid

MOSCOW Y)-A high-ranking
North Vietnamese delegation met
here yesterday with Soviet Com-
munist party chief Leonid I. Brez-
hnev amid unsupported specula-
tion of Moscow - Hanoi peace
moves in Viet Nam.
Diplomatic sources noted that
the Soviet press had described the
Hanoi delegation earlier as an eco-
nomic mission. And in addition,
North Viet Nam's Foreign Minis-
try issued a sharp formal state-
ment terming Communist troop
infiltration into South Viet Nam
a "myth" created by the United
States.
It also rejected as a hoax Presi-
dent Johnson's statement that he
will schedule withdrawal of U.S.
forces from Viet Nam if anyone
shows him a schedule when infil-
tration from the North is halted.
Communist sources said the del-
egation was here to discuss Soviet
economic aid and possibly political
matters, including relations with
Red China.
An official Soviet announcement
said Brezhnev met in "an atmos-
phere of friendship and cordial-
ity" with North Vietnamese Depu-
ty Premier Le Thanh Nghi. Le is
a member of Hanoi's ruling Com-
munist politburo. The brief an-
nouncement did not disclose what
was discussed.
The Soviet delegation included
two key officials in charge of re-
lations with foreign Communist
parties, strongly suggesting that
the talks may have touched on
China's role in Hanoi.
The two were party Secretaries
Mikhail A. Suslov and Yuri A.
Andropov, both ranking Soviet ex-
perts on ideological problems and
relations with other Communist
parties.
Reports of the visit touched off

speculation from Yugoslav sources
that Hanoi was moving away from
Chinese influence and closer ot
Moscow, possibly making Hanoi
more receptive to peace proposals.
In other diplomatic activity yes-
terday North Viet Nam termed
Communist troop infiltration into
South Viet Nam a myth created
by the United States.
It rejected as a hoax President
Johnson's statement that he will
schedule withdrawal of all U.S.
forces from Viet Nam if anyone
shows him a schedule when infil-
tration from the North will be
halted.

men were being posted at the 5,-
238 polling places to combat rising
Communist terrorism which, in
incidents Friday, claimed five
more lives.
Revise Casualties
The U.S. Command finally made
public its revised figures on cas-
ualties from the accidental na-
palm bombing of a 1st Infantry
Division unit in a jungle battle
north of Saigon Aug. 26. Maj. Gen.
William E. DePuy told newsmen
confidentially at the time 22 sol-
diers were killed and 26 wounded.
A spokesman said Wednesday
investigation showed the flaming
canisters killed very few and that
some of the casualties originally
attributed to the napalm were due
to enemy action. The revised fig-
ures, as released officially Friday:
three killed, 19 wounded.
The radical Buddhist leadership,
splintered by Ky's alternate tough-
ness and adroit political maneuv-
ering, mustered a dozen monks for
a protest march on the U.S. Em-
bassy.
Although the demonstration was
a pale shadow of past efforts, it
brought an immediate police
crackdown. Eight monks were ar-
rested.
Several hundred monks in Sai-
gon and-Hue were on a three-day
hunger strike to focus attention
on Thich Tri Quang, the leader of
the militant Buddhist movement
who entered the 94th day of his
fast. He has said he will fast until
Ky's military regime is out. He
subsists on dextrose solution.

World News Roundup

By The Associated Press
W A S H I N G T O N-President
Johnson signed the landmark au-
to-highway safety package into
law yesterday and told the na-
ion's carmakers they should "build
in more safety without building
on more costs."
The President's message to the
auto manufacturers, many of
whom were at the ceremony in
the White House rose garden, ap-
parently was prompted by some
predictions that car prices are
going up because of increased steel
costs and because some safety fea-
ures are becoming standard equip-
ment.

WASHINGTON - The admini
stration's civil rights bill flound
ered in a sea of Senate aputhy
yesterday.
Efforts to round up a quorum
of 51 senators to discuss a motion
were abandoned after about three

hours and a recess was taken un-
til next week.
WASHINGTON - The United
States in effect turned down yes-
terday a North Korean proposal
for a conference of the powers
involved in the Korean War to
settle the 'Korean question.
The North Korean proposal, by
passing the United Nations, drew
from State Department press offi
cer Robert J. McCloskey a Strong
endorsement of the U.N. formula
for the unification of Korea.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia - Con
troversial Yugoslav author Mihajlo
Mihajlov was released provision-

charges of spreading "false in-
formation about socio-political"
conditions in Yugoslavia.

- At the 22-nation Commonwealth
conference broke up for the week-
end last night with delegates split
broadly on racial lines over Rho-
desia. Some, however, held hope
for a compromise to end the Afri-
can colony's 10-month-old rebel-
lion.
No Detail Yet
This compromise plan, still to
be spelled out in detail, will be
heavily pressed on the more mili-
tant African - Asian delegations
during informal meetings over the
weekend.
Its essence emerbed from a 30-
minute Conference address by Ca-
nada's prime minister, Lester B.
Pearson. He appealed in effect for
time to allow a stiffened version
of existing sanctions to take ef-
fect.
If they failed, he suggested the
full weight of a United Nations
embargo on trade with Rhodesia
could be considered, starting per-
haps with oil.
