Little Hope Despite
Congressional Urging
WASHINGTON W - Congress
%.increased pressure yesterday for
a voluntary end to the airlines
strike and the government brought
the parties together and then
withdrew to let them seek a face-
to-face answer.
A few hours after the renewed
congressional appeal for voluntary
' settlement, Secretary of Labor W.
Willard Wirtz brought representa-
tives of the AFL-CIO International
Association of Machinists and air-
lines spokesmen into session with
Assistant Secretary James J.
Reynolds.
After about an hour, Reynolds
withdrew and told newsmen, "We
are leaving them alone without
the participation ofany outsiders"
to consider a union proposal which
Reynolds said the management
negotiators described in advance
as unrealistic.
The meeting was the first since
the striking mechanics on July 31
rejected an agreement negotiated
two days earlier under White
House guidance. And it was the
first session between the parties
without "the presence of outsiders
since the strike began July 8, shut-
ting down Eastern, National,
Northwest, Trans World and
United airlines.
The unique confrontation came
after both sides had been told by
a congressional. spokesman that
"you will regret it the rest of your
lives" if they force Congress to act.
In testimony yesterday before
the House Commerce Committee,
P. L. Siemiller, the union presi-
dent, reiterated his belief that the
companies are awaiting legislative
action to bail them out and will
make no new offer until Congress
has acted one way or another.
Last Saturday, the committee
chairman, Rep. Harley 0. Staggers
(D-WVa) made a strong appeal
for a negotiated settlement but
at that time the airlines' chief
negotiator, William J. Curtin, told
newsmen he knew of nothing to
justify resumption of negotiations.

U.S. Unit
Hits Troops!
From North
Rifle Company Acts
To Decoy Battalion;
Communists Flee
SAIGON (A)-Moving up a rifle
company as bait, the U.S. Cavalry,
Airmobile, Division tempted a
North Vietnamese battalion into
battle on the central plateau late
yesterday.
The Americans went into hot
pursuit of the enemy after pound-
ing them with 2,000 artillery
shells and tons of flaming naplam.
It was a new phase of Operation
Paul Revere, an effort of about
15,000 allied troops to sweep three
North Vietnamese regiments -
perhaps 5,000 men-from recently
acquired footholds in the high-
lands near the Cambodian fron-
tier.
The Communist battalion, per-
haps 500 strong, had hit hard and
all but surrounded the 150-man
rifle company in the Ia Drang Val-
ley, scene of a major American
victory last November, before it
was routed.
The battalion fled north with
cavalry units clawing at its flanks.
Amercian authorities believe the
North'Vietnamese moved three
regiments from Cambodia into the
highlands between the Ia Drang
Valley and Duc Co under cover of
bad weather in late July. What-
ever their offensive plans, the
Communists broke off contact
after some heavy action early last
week.

gunners shot down six U.S. planes
and captured "many pilots" Sun-
day, Hanoi's Viet Nam News
Agency claimed yesterday.
RACIAL TENSION:
House Adds Anti-Riot Clause
To Proposed Civil Rights Bil
By The Associated Press ]
Reacting to the long summer of'
racial violence, the House wrote a
federal anti-riot provision into the
1966 civil rights bill yesterday.
With only a few voices raised
in dissent, it shouted approval of'
an amendment that would make
it a federal crime for a person to
cross a state line to either lead
or take part in a riot.c
Rep. William C. Cramer (R-l
Fla), who offered it, said it would
not apply to a peaceful demonstra-
tion led by someone like the Rev.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, but is,
aimed at "professional agitators."
Northerners and Southerners
united on the need for such an
amendment, which was added to a'
section in the civil rights bill de-
signed to protect Negroes and civil
rights workers against violence.
Meanwhile, leaders of a Negro
drive for open housing in Chicago
planned their next moves in the
wake of mob-surrounded marches
into all-white residential sections.
A rally was organized for yes-

FARMER ABSOLVED:
Probe Increased Bread Cost
LONDON (P) - Prime Minister'
Harold Wilson announced yester-
day another attempt to come to
terms with Rhodesia. But he made
no concessions from his policy of
trying to bring down the break-
way colony's white government.
Shortly before Wilson announced
in the House of Commons that
British officials would go back to
Rhodesia this weekend, President
Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia
warned against any British con-
cession to Rhodesia's government.
Rumors of compromise with
Prime Minister Ian Smith's Rho-
desian regime had been spreading
in London for weeks. But Wilson
told Commons his government still
is applying economic sanctions to
force Rhodesia back under British
control and point it toward rule
by its African majority.
Talks between British and
Rhodesian civil servants went on
for two months and ended in July.
Nevertheless, he announced a
British team would travel to Sal-
isbury, the Rhodesian capital, this
weekend for another round of
talks-"exploratory and non-com-
mittal as before."
Wilson said he did not know how
long the new talks would last-
in particular whether they would
still be underway when Common-
wealth prime ministers meet in
London Sept. 6-15. He would only
say he did not expect a settlement
during the two-month parliamen-
tary summer recess, ending in
mid-October.
Zambia and Tanzania have
threatened to lead a walkout of
the Commonwealth unless Smith
is brought to heel by next month.
W A S H I N G T O N UP) - TheIand 3.9 cents now. The bulk of the
American farmer got a rousing
defense yesterday from everybody
at a congressional subcommittee
hearing probing the cost of
bread.
John Schnittker, undersecretary
of agriculture, agreed with con-
gressmen and a spokesman for the
Farmers Union that the man with
the plow can't be blamed for ris-
ing bread costs.
In fact, Rep. Graham Purcell
(D-Tex), chairman of House Ag-
riculture subcommittee on wheat,
made it clear his group doesn't
want to blame anybody.
But Purcell said the subcommit-
tee does want to get all the facts
in fair hearings-not "any witch
hunt"-as to what has caused
recent 2 and 3-cent-a-loaf hikes.
Schnittker said the farmer's
share of a pound loaf of white
bread was only 3.3 cents in 1965
cost, he said, goes to the baker.
But he testified that statistics
show the national baking industry
profits "are quite low. when com-
pared to other industry."
Reuben Johnson of the Farmers
Unon said everybody still blames
the farmer for the bread-price
hikes and he hopes these hearings,
plus two other investigations, will
set the record straight.
In a speech on the House floor,
Rep. Jamie L. Whitten (D-Miss)
declared farm population is down'
because return on investment is
small, the work and hours too
hard and long.
Schnittker said there is little
relationship between bread and
wheat prices, saying it "takes a
price change in wheat of almost
70 cents per bushel to make a dif-
ference of one cent in the cost of
the wheat in a 1-pound loaf."
Schnittker's figures s h o w e d
farmers, were getting 43 cents a
bushel more for wheat in mid-July
of this year over the same period
of 1965. He said this price in-
crease is thoroughly justified.
Johnson claimed one bushel of
wheat produces enough flour to
make 68.4 one-pound loaves and
said this would justify about six-
tenths of a cent increase in the
retail price of bread for the 1965-
1966 July periods.
I
I MPORTANT? NO ONE UNDER 18 WILL BE ADMITTED UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY HIS PARENT.
Schnittker said the price
bread varies greatly from city
city, depending on a variety
factors, including competition.
of
to
of
,x
He cited a range of froni 18.5
cents per loaf in Detroit to a high
of 28 cents in Los Angeles.
His charts depicted a pound loaf'
with an average price of 20.9 cents
slices out like this: 3.3 cents to the
farmer; 2.4 to the miller and
others, transportation, etc.; 11.4
to the baker and 3.8 cents to the
retailer.
He agreed in questioning that
baking industry labor costs have
gone up from $1.15 an hour to:
$2.50 on the average since 1947-49.
