Board Recommends
Firemen’s Union Accept
R.R. Offer Of Pay Raise
9
WASHINGTON, (JF)— A presi
dential board recommended Sat
urday that the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men accept a railroad offer of
a pay raise of 23Vz cents an hour
for road service and 38 cents for
road work.
On the immediate pay issue and
other questions in dispute, the
recommendations from the special
emergency panel followed an
offer made by the carriers over
a year ago.
The board refused to go along
with a union demand for an extra
10 cents an hour for yard men
when a forty-hour week replaces
die present 48-hour work webk.
The board said the additional
boost should only be four cents.
The dispute between the rail
lines and the firemen and engine
men is two years old. The board’s
recommendations are based on a
settlement made last year with
the Trainmen’s Union.
Protection from
Alcohol Asked for
UMT Draftees
WASHINGTON, (JP)— Spokes
men for organized beer sellers
and for the Women’s Christian
Temperance Union agreed Satur
day that youths inducted under
universal military training tfUMT)
should be protected from the evils
of drink.
One beverage representative
urged that the trainees be re
quired to wear a distinctive non
detachable insignia so bartenders
could tell at a glance they are
minors.
In statements prepared for the
House Armed Services Commit
tee both groups urged that Con
gress write into the proposed
UMT law’ adequate safeguards
to protect the trainees from hard
liquor and strong beer.
The committee is considering
a modified UMT bill under which
60,000 volunteers would be taken
for six months’ training plus 18
months active duty.
Military officials have asked
BARREL OVER HEAD
SAVES SAND DIGGER'S LIFE
LOS ANGELES, </P) — They
saved Ted Wiebers from being
buried alive in a cavein by low
ering a barrel over his head.
Wiebers, 50, of Orange, was
working in a 15-foot sand pit of
an asphalt plant when the walls
suddenly collapsed, burying him
up to his chin.
The barrel, dropped over him
by alert fellow workers, protected
him and enabled him to get air.
Firemen brought him out through
a tube lowered over the barrel.
He refused medical aid.
That big gold watch outside old
man Jensen’s watch repair em

should be like a good watch . . .
open face, busy hands, pure gold,
well regulated and full of good
works.
\!
this as a starter to gain experi
ence for any full-fledged UMT
program. They told the commit
tee that the 60,000 volunteers
would be drafted next year if
they are not adsorbed in UMT.
Anti - British Mobs
Riot In Cairo
By Fred J. Zusy
CAIRO, Egypt, (JP)— Riotous
mobs roamed Cairo’s streets to
day, burning and crying for “re
venge” against the British. Police
said at least eight rioters perished
and that scores were wounded as
the mobs set fire to more than 25
buildings in the center of Cairo.
The Egyptian cabinet reported
ly has decided to sever diplomatic
relations with Britain and Britain
announced 11 British warships
have been dispatched to the Suez
Canal to help keep order.
Police fought the angry mobs
in Cairo with tear gas and shots
fired overhead. The mobs cut
hoses of firemen trying to extin
guish the many blazes. Chased
out by police, the mobs merely
moved to other spots and set
other fires. The police said most
of the dead and injured were
casualties of fires and 'splintered
glass from store front windows.
Three Britons were reported
killed in an attack on the exclu
sive British turf club in the cen
ter of Cairo.
