Sudbury May Join CLC OTTAWA (CP) -- When the left-wing national leadership of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers (Ind.) took a licking in Northern On- tario this week it created ques- tions as to the future of this stormy labor body. A major one is whether the vote among 16,000 hard . rock miners around Sudbury points to some upheaval of the top leader- ship of Mine-Mill in this country. The answer would appear to be|S0 no. Another is what does the vote do towards getting the 26,000 Local cating factor would be the work- ing out of an arrangement with Mine-Mill that would be satis- factory to arch-rival Steel, which swings much weight in the CLC.

Steel would be highly unlikely to consent to moving out of this jurisdiction. would Mine-Mill, The problem may not be in- soluble, but no one is known to Mom Whyte Will Meet 15 Children PENTICTON, B.C.

He got 7,221 votes against 5,963 for Nels Thibault, who quit the national presidency in an attempt to knock out Gillis in the key area. ALL OR NOTHING It is pretty certain that mo break-away vote would be as 'big as what Gillis got. In a referen- dum earlier, the union as a whole voted 4 to 1 for affiliation with the CLC, but as an intact union. Sudbury's vote probably was somewhat on this scale, so a vote for a splinter affiliation would be mounted--and there is no inkling that it will--another and compli- unlikely.

TEST RATS DIE U.S. Lipstick Furor Ahead WASHINGTON (AP) -- Lip-| sticks may follow cranberries as the subject of the United States Food and Drug Administration's next battle with industry. Last month FDA banned the; use in lipsticks of certain coal- tar colors it said had caused death and illness in test rats. The ban, if uncontested, would have gone into effect Jan. 6, 1960. But lipstick makers, in vigor- ous protests just filed with FDA, are contending that most lip sticks on the American market would be affected. The 17 shades of red, yellow and orange the FDA cited are key ingredients and have been used for many years without harm, they say. The industry contends there has been no substantial proof that hu- mans may 'be harmed by what they claim 'is an infinitesimal CITY EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS POLICE RA 5-1133 FIRE DEPT.

Ford announced Thurday the Edsel line was being dropped be- cause of poor sales. Production figures show that only three 'make are selling at a slower pace than the DeSoto. These are Chrysler's Imperial, Ford's Lincoln and the Edsel, in that order. DeSoto production for the 1959 calendar year so far totals only slightly more than 30,000 units. Sales have slumped generally in the medium-priced field since the 1955-model year. Packard, Nash and Hudson, both in the me- dium-price range, have been cas- ualties of falling sales in recent years. The FRdsel was discontinued after only 28 months of produc- tion. Introduced at the end of August, 1957, Ford enthusiasti- cally predicted that 200,000 would be sold in the first year.

(AP) A Chicago art appraiser today hailed a set of paintings dug out from under an immigrant's bed and a closet as "the greatest art find of the century." He said .|they're worth $8,000,000 to $10, 000,000 But some art authorities were not so sure. They said they'd like to see the works for themselves. Alexander Zlatoff - Mirsky, art appraiser and restorer who has his own studio, declared 10 of the dozen paintings are masterpieces from the Italian Renaissance. One of them he identified as the Madallena by Michelangelo de Caravaggio and valued at more than $1,000,000. DISPUTE DEVELOPS Even as ment of the Immigrant's Bed Cache For Art repair man, and his sister, Mrs. Maria Follo Hataburda, said they were greatly disappointed that Charles di Renzo, a friend who developed into their agent, had made the matter public. Zlatoff-Mirsky said the master- pieces were authenticated by Amadore Porcella, catalogist for the Vatican and an expert on Renaissance art. Porcella spent four months in Pasadena exam- ining the works, Follo and Mrs. Hataburda said. IN FAMILY FOR YEARS The paintings have been handed down in the Italian family for generations.

However, FDA pharmacologists say cancer would not show up in such short-term tests and it is generally agreed that tests of at least two years are required to disclose cancer effécts. Such long- term tests now are being con- ducted with some of the lipstick colors, The FDA has conceded that the amounts of the color 'which may get into the human digestive sys- tem from lipsticks are much smaller than the amounts: the test rats.

R. Conrad Cooper, chief indus- try negotiator, disclosed the new offer Thursday. He said it was a "fair offer to do what can be done and still keep within non-inflation- ary bounds in the cost of steel production." USW President David J. Me- Donald said the offer was just a rearrangement of "the same od package offered by the industry on Oct, 17." The new offer was submitted to the union Nov, 15 during secret negotiations between both sides. Had the proposal been accepted, said Cooper, it would have meant a 30-cepts-an-hour package over a three-year period. He added that the new offer also tempered industry demands for more say over working conditions. Firemen stand by as welders use acetylene torches to cut through this steel hopper to rescue.
