Anti-Missile Weapon Tested Pacific Blast Considered First Step in Development of ICBM Defense WASHINGTON () - An American atomic weapon mounted in a sile was detonated miles above the Pacific Ocean yesterday. It was a first step toward creation of a defense against intercon- ental ballistic missiles. The spectacular blast over Johnston Island was witnessed by usands of people in Hawaii, some of them as much as 700 miles to the scene. An Army Redstone missile was believed to have been used for the eriment conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission and Defense partment weaponeers. Redstone Normally Ground to Ground The Redstone's normally intended use is for bombardment of Lind targets up to a distance of 200 miles.

Allies Ask August 12 Conference To Be Held in UN; Predict Soviet Okay UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. A)- The United States and Britain yesterday drove for an Aug. 12 Middle East summit conference in the United Nations. France would not say yes, but diplomats in Moscow, predicted Soviet, acceptance. Britain put in a formal request for a high-level Security Council meeting in just 11 days, and sug- gested Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold aid in consulta- tions among Council members on arrangements. Acts Immediately He acted immediately, calling in representatives of the big powers on the 11-nation Council for indi- vidual consultations. He said he would see the other Council mem- bers today. But despite the speed at which the diplomatic wheels were turn- ing here, considerable doubt ex- isted that the meeting could actu- ally open on the target date Bri- tain proposed. United Nations diplomats said Aug. 15 seemed more likely, and a delay until Aug. 18 was not ruled out. Ike Suggests Aug. 12 President Dwight D. Eisenhower suggested on or about Aug. 12 in his letter sent yesterday to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. Eisen- hower lined up with Britain and committed himself definitely for the first time to attend a high- level Council meeting. , The Council members talked with Hammarskjold about the site for the summit meeting, the nations outside the Council to be invited, and how broad a range Middle East discussion will cover.. UN diplomats expected that a meeting of the Council attended by the representatives now here will be held by the middle of next week to formalize the preliminary arrangements. Predict Soviet Acceptance In Moscow, diplomats from Western and neutral nations pre- dicted Khrushchev would accept United States and British insis- tence that the summit meeting be held under Council procedure. They saw Geneva as the most probable site. Hammarskjold favors New York,' but informed sources said political pressures might result in selecting Geneva despite admittedly better physical facilities existing at UN+ headquarters in New York.+ Rises; Troops Haiti Clais U.S. Harbors 'Brigands' PORT-AU-Prince (-) - Haiti's President Francois Duvalier yes- terday accused the United States of permitting Haitian exiles to plot on United States soil against the Haitian government. He also announced at a news conference in the presidential pal- ace that Haiti is demanding extra- diction from New York of ex- President Paul E. Magloire and ex- Sen.

Rules by Decree Duvalier Thursday won from the National Assembly the right to rule Haiti by decree for six months in an effort to protect the Carib- bean Negro republic from plotters. Duvalier said the latest coup attempt - crushed Tuesday with the killing of three Haitian ex- army officers and five Americans- was international brigandage.

LOUIS OP)-Crank mail is pouring in on the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, which will hear an appeal in the Little Rock school integration case Monday. Every day brings more letters, mainly from the South. Robert C. Tucker, clerk of the appellate court, says they are bitter and frequently vicious. The judges are reluctant to dis- cuss the crank mail. Some won't even admit they read it. INSTITUTE SPEAKER REMARKS: Law Said Important in Bargaining Laws of the ship can no longer be considered separate from laws of the land, Prof. Archibald Cox of Harvard University law school said yesterday. Addressing a University law school institute on collective bar- gaining, Prof. Cox indicated that "The time has passed when we could simply erect a 'no-trespass- ing' sign and separate industrial relations from the law." "The law has moved into the- sphere of grievance adjustment and contract administration," he said. "The law of contracts often embodies these ideals. It may also embody lessons of experience en- tirely aplicable to collective bar- gaining agreements." "Conversely," he continued, "the law can satisfy the needs of the industrial world only if there is a strong infusion of many of the ideas and convictions .,..which have gained acceptance in the world of labor relations." Collective bargaining, Prof. Cox Enforce Agreements ByArbitrion-.hGrgod' Arbitration should be the principal means of enforcing collective bargaining agreements, Prof. Charles 0. Gregory, of the University of Virginia Law School told the University Law Institute yesterday. He suggested that Congress amend existing laws to make arbitra- tion an essential part of all collective bargaining agreements. His proposal indicated that labor and management would have to agree to submit all disputes arising under their contracts to a mutually chosen, impartial "um- pire,." dustrial Laundry Co. A blonde i a summery white dress, she said she had been threatened with dis- figurement or worse if she testi- fled. Before she talked with com- mittee investigators this summer, she said, Lehr invited her to a restaurant for a cup of coffee, accused her of squealing, and in response to her denials warned her: "Soonor or later I'll find out, and when I do you'll get a letter." Mafia Symbol Mrs. Dawson said she took this as childish talk until she was told the expression "getting a letter" refers to the fact "it was quitea common to send a picture of a hand in an envelope-that's sup- posed to indicate that's it."a There have been previous refer- ences to the Mafia, the Sicilian Black Hand society, in the Senate probe, Consent Decree Ends Wolfson Stock Probe Anti- hamoun Sentiment Reinforced No Report Submitted By Gold fine WASHINGTON (R') - An official of the Securities and Exchange Commission said yesterday Ber- nard Goldfine's East Boston Co. failed to file an annual report due last Tuesday. He said East Boston has been notified the commission will act against it. The official said failure of the company to file & report on its operations in the 12 months ended March 31 violates, federal law and also a federal court- order issued when the SEC acted three, years aoagainst East Boston for failure to file regular reports. During the earlier proceedings against East Boston, presidential assistant Sherman Adams made inquiries to the SEC about the case. SEC officials denied in testimony during the House investigation of relations between Goldfine and Adams that the commission had gone easy on East Boston. Arbitrators Should Decide Maintaining that courts should give arbitrators a free hand in settling disputes, Prof. Gregory said that "by leaving virtually all decisions to the arbitrators them- selves, contract interpretation and application will be left to develop freely and properly." "At present, the Supreme Court has enabled federal judges to do exactly that, he reported. Can Be Trusted "Arbitrators . . . can be trusted to make sense in applying fairly broad principles to a host of de- tailed situations which could neither be explicitly anticipated nor covered in the agreement," Prof. Gregory continued. "I would not trust a busy federal judge with handling, this sort of thing, any more than I would trust even skilled arbitrators with a district judge's job," he said. Prohibit Legal Actions He indicated that where collec- tive bargaining agreements are in force, individual employees should not be allowed to start legal ac- tions against their employee about the terms and conditions of their employment. "Where there is no arbitration clause, the union should be allowed to decide whether or not (legal) action should be brought on behalf of one or more employees," he in- sisted. "If so, the union should be left to maintain and finance the ac- tion, with complete control of litigation," Prof. Gregory added. DOOR OPENED: Steel Price Rise Seen PITTSBURGH W) - Republic Steel Corp. yesterday opened the door for the steel industry to in- crease prices on another big seg- ment of its products. Several other firms quickly en- dorsed the action. Earlier this week, the industry increased the prices on flat rolled products. That action caused the Senate Antitrust subcommittee to vote yesterday to hold hearings on the steel price raises. 30 Per Cent Increase Republic, the nation's third largest producer, announced it would increase by approximately three per cent prices on its prin- cipal carbon and alloy steel prod- ucts. Republic and the other com- panies said they would put the price increase into effect Monday on such items as bars, rods, wire and pipe. Becomes Prices Leader In making the announcement, Republic stepped into the role of price leader very much like Armco Steel Corp., did last Tuesday when it increased prices on flat rolledl products.I noted; does not give management and labor the same "freedom to disagree" which characterizes typical contracts between business firms or individuals. Need Creative Interpretation "This means that interpretation of collective bargaining agree- ments must assume a more cre- ative role than in most commer- cial or property litigation," he said. Prof. Cox cited changes in union representation as an area where traditional contract theory is not well suited to industrial relations. Once employees decide to change the union which serves as their bargaining representative, termination of their contract with management becomes a "practi- cal necessity," no matter how long the contract may still have to run, Prof. Cox declared. Gives Reasons "Employees frequently change representatives because they are dissatisfied with existing condi- tions of employment, and not merely with the manner in which their previous representative ad- ministered the agreement," he said. "As a matter of practical poli- tics, the new union must show that it can render better service," Prof. Cox maintained. "This re- quires making some changes, re- gardless of whether they benefit or merely seem to benefit the em- ployees." Principles Applied On the other hand, he con- tinued, there are areas in which contract principles may be fruit- fully applied in industrial rela- tions. As an example, they can be used in deciding whether or not strikes under a "no strike" clause are justified. Similarly, the concept of "good faith and fair dealing" developed in contract law can help deter- mine whether or not employers are justified in subcontracting work outside their plants, Prof. Cox said. "In collective bargaining, the contract can hardly be the exclu- sive source of rights, remedies and duties. Conference Can t Resolve Differences WASHINGTON (A') - Senate- House efforts failed for the time being yesterday to resolve differ- ences over extension of the recip- rocal trade program. After an all -day session, con- ferees suspended their negotia- tions until next Monday. "A lot of little things,' was the description given by Rep. Aime J. Forand (D-R.I.) of the stumbling blocks in the way of a compromise. The House version, patterned after President Eisenhower's re- quests, would extend the Trade Act five years and give the presi- dent authority to cut tariffs 25 per cent in negotiating mutual trade concessions. The Senate version would limit the time to three years and hold down the amount of the presiden- tial tariff-cutting authority to 15 per cent with not more than five per cent to be used in any one year.

(M)-What he called his last "eyedropper full of gas" carried veteran flier Marion (Pat) Boling to a safe landing here yesterday, a new nonstop record for light planes. Boling brought in his brilliant orange Beechcraft Bonanza at 2:52 p.m., after warning the airport control tower his tanks were dry and he could not circle for an approach. He said afterward he used the overflow from the main tank in landing. This was the happy ending to an epic endurance flight which - began in Manila 45 hours 42 min- NEW YORK ()-Louis E. Wolf- son, multimillionaire industrialist, consented yesterday to a perman- ent injunction enjoining him from alleged manipulation of American Motors Corp. common stock. The consent decree, applying also to anyone acting in concert with Wolfson, was filed in United State District Court and signed by Dist. Judge John M. Cashin. The court last month issued a temporary . restraining order against Wolfson on complaint of the Securities & Exchange Com- mission that he "or his agents" had engaged in stock manipula- tion. Wolfson denied the charges. Filing of the decree terminated action on the complaint. Atty. Leo Gottlieb, representing Wolfson, said Wolfson consented to the decree, despite his denial of the charges, on the ground that it simply restates the law and pro- hibits Wolfson from doingthings "he has not intention or desire of doing."

BARBOUR Associated Press Science Reporter NEW YORK (A') - Can the United States, safely and effective- ly, fight nuclear fire with nuclear fire? That seems to be the question that erupted yesterday high in the Pacific sky, 700 miles southwest of Hawaii. Why fire off an atomic weapon at that height? The answer lies in the original AEC announcement that certain defensive missiles with nuclear warheads would be tested in ,the Johnston Island area. Missiles with nuclear warheads - How might such dangerous missiles protect against enemy nuclear attack? Perhaps 15 Minutes Warning The United States stands Just across the Arctic Circle from Rus- sia. A Russian missile carrying a nuclear warhead that could smash half a city could cover the distance in about half an hour. - The longest advance warning would be perhaps 15 minutes. That is 15 minutes to stop a missile approaching at about 15,000 miles an hour. Perhaps the nuclear explosion over Johnston Island is one answer. The AEC's experiment could be aimed at determining if the fire- ball and shock waves of a nuclear blast might destroy or otherwise block an enemy missile from imve , i+ .r ,, f ,,,,a, a ir utes, 6,979 miles and 401 gallons of gasoline earlier.

Boling was wrapped in his wife's tight embrace the moment his feet touched the ground. His proud son, Kevin, 9 years old, stood by, waiting his turn. The other two Boling children re- mained at their Palo Alto, Calif., home. Boling's pretty wife, Joyce, said all she wanted was for Pat to get plenty of rest then return home. She said she had never been con- cerned for his safety, and Kevin felt the same way "because daddy has never crashed yet." Segregationist Weins Release TALLAHASSEE, Fla.

Persuasion .Tried Ministers loyal to President Chamoun worked to persuade Pre- mier Sami Solh to remain in office until Chamoun's term expires, Solh was said to be embittered by the election of Shehab, a long- time political foe, and there have been rumors that Solh's resigna- tion is imminent. Reliable informants said Edde, a member of the midroad National Bloc, resigned because he felt She- hab should be given some authori- ty immediately although he is not scheduled to take office until Sept. 24. The Cabinet, at a meeting yes- terday, refused to take such a step. Resignation Postponed Informants said pro-Chamoun Cabinet ministers had talked Solh into postponing any resignation and perhaps staying in office un- til Chamoun's term ends. If Solh should resign, it would leave Chamoun in an increasingly difficult spot. He would find it almost impossible to get anyone else to form a Cabinet for the few weeks remaining until Sept. 23. And if Chamoun should be left without a Cabinet, the pressure would be increased for him to re- sign before his term ends.
