A U.S, Navy spokesman said that the Communist captors of the vessel were doing off the Brazilian island or why it stopped there remained a mys- tery. Two small boats visited the fugitive ship Sunday night but there has been no sign of movement since, the navy said. The United States defence de- partment said a tracking U.S. Plane saw the 3,127-ton fugitive ship stop "dead in the water" suddenly off the Brazilian island about .7 p.m. Sunday night. The island lies about 300 miles northwest of the Brazilian port of Belem, where the men who seized the freighter had indi- cated they might seek refuge. The report from the tracking plane gave no hint of the iden- tity of people in the boats that appeared alongside the freigh- ter, which stopped in about 26 feet of water.

They were reported to have been made the captain and most of his 35-man crew cap- tive. President Romulo Betan- court's anti-Communist govern- ment branded them mutineers and appealed to friendly nations with forces in the Caribbean to seize the freighter. Seizure of the vessel appeared to be part of a Communist at- tempt to force Betancourt to cancel a visit with President Kennedy in Washington this week. But Betancourt went ahead with plans to leave for Puerto Rico today and to fly on to Washington Tuesday. Although Fidel Castro's re- gime offered asylum in Cuba to the crew who seized the ship, she was located Saturday off the northeast coast of South Africa. The ship has appeared to be heading for Brazil, where Portuguese rebels who seized the liner Santa Maria in 1961 found asylum. Venezuelan destroyers sped along the South American coast, trying to intercept the Anzoa- tegui. The U.S. destroyers Wood and Leary sped out of Trinidad to join in the pursuit. They were expected to overtake the freigh- ter by late today. But Capt. John H. Dinneen, commander of the U.S. naval station at Chaguaramas, said no orders had been received to stop and board the freighter.

NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. (CP) Ontario's labor leaders were bombarded this weekend with advice on how to recruit sup- port from a growing number of workers who have never seen a union organizer. The occasion was a two-day annual education conference sponsored by the Ontario Fed- eration of Labor. The advance came from within labor's ranks outsiders aod ge familiar, William Dodge, executive vice-president of the Canadian Labor Congress, pressed for a broader role and greater au- thority for the CLC itself in shaping policy to meet both present and future challenges. Conceding the extent of some of labor's problems, Mr. Dodge WILLIAM DODGE K's Test-Ban Plans said Not Acceptable GENEVA--The chief United States disarmament negotiator said today Premier Khrush- chev's nuclear test-bam inspec- tion proposal has taken on the form of an ultimatum and is un- acceptable to the U.S. At the same time he said U.S. policy is firmly against the transfer of nuclear weapons to the independent control of states which do not possess them. William C. Foster said the United States welcomed Khrush- chev's offer to allow two or three on-site inspections a year as showing a genuine desire to CITY EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS POLICE 725-1133 FIRE DEPT. 725-6574 move toward a test-ban agree- ment. "We did not assume the num- ber mentioned by Chairman Khrushchev to be an ultimatum which the United States had no choice but to accept," Foster told the 17mation disarmament conference here. The United States and Brit- ain demand eight to 10 inspec- tions a year as a minimum for an adequately safeguarded treaty. Foster said the United States "evaluated the Soviet offer of two or three on-site inspections as evidence of a real willing- ness to open negotiations de- signed to reach an effective test ban agreement. "Tt was, there, a very real surprise when . . . we were told literally that the Soviet Union question of mumbers . . . above two or three," j HOSPITAL 723-2211 'thas shaken our belief that the Soviet Union really desires agreement," Foster said. Foster told Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily V. Kuz- netsov that on-site inspections would not interfere with normal activities in the inspected coun- try and would include complete safeguards against espionage. He called on Kuznetsov again to discuss details of the inspec- tion procedure. Kuznetsov has refused to negotiate on these de- tails unless the Western pow- ers first accept the two or three inspection quota. Kuznetsov said later that Fos- ter's speech 'contained nothing new that we do not know al- ready, and distorted some of the issues."' He repeated the Soviet assertion that the Western de- mand for eight or 10 inspections "created a new obstacle on the inspection issue" in reply to a The frozen Russian 6 major Soviet concession. Broader Role For CLC Suggested By Dodge said he feels the solution may depend .on transferring more authority to the central labor body from unions affiliated with the CLC. He. listed the fields of organization, jurisdicton and the structure of unions, with col- lective bargaining as a long- range possibility. HEAR OF PROBLEM From three different sources, the delegates heard of the prob- lems to be faced. -- Helstein of Chicago, president of the United Packing- house Workers (AFL-CIO), es- timated that 50,000 to 75,000 new jobs must be created every week in the United States to replace those disappearing through automation, He used the expression "sheer irresponsibility" to describe the , unionism idea that jobs will be found for all those displaced. '"'We are not getting anywhere near that number." Mr. Helstein said labor's de- mand for a shorter work week is a temporary solution, but he also urged greater political ac- tivity amd a slowdown in the in- troduction of automation. Prof. J. H. G. Crisp of the University of Toronto's School ef Business said labor must tailor its appeal to new types of employment which are rap- idly replacing the work from which trade unions have har- vested their greatest member- ship, IMAGE IS BAD | Another problem facing trade] is its own public image, said Henry Rhodes, the CI's assistamt director of or- ganization. Sensational headlines and lurid details flowing from dis- closures of racketeering and maladministration have given the public the impression that the questionable union boss is typical of labor leaders, Mr. Rhodes said. "The public can tolerate the idea of the plant boss driving a Cadillac," he said. 'In fact, this has always added to his pres- tige. "But they cannot take the same view of the labor leader. They do not. see that one is as bad as another because they are being conditioned to see corruption and greed only if it occurs in the trade union move- ment." He called for a new approach to public relations. Among other speakers was Harry. J. Waisglass, Canadian research director of the United Steelworkers of America (CLC), who said a 10-province '"com- mon market" would bring pol- itical and economic unity to Canada. Provincial. and federal gov- ernments should establish a new framework for integration which will enable the country to plan social and economic pro- gress, he said. Douglas Fisher, chairman of the New Democratic Party caucus in the last Parliament, proposed that the party offer to support a minority government for a guaramteed period if it agrees in broad terms to an ac- ceptable legislative program.

(CP)--RCAF laked and hilly area between North Bay and Killaloe for a light charter plane carrying a Drummondville, Que., doctor, J. B. Michaud, and his 12-year-old son Yves, The plane, piloted by Dr. Mi- chaud, took off from North Bay at 9:22 p.m. Sunday and was due at Montreal at 11.35 p.m. It was carrying enough fuel to last until 2.30 a.m. Dr. Michaud's last known ra- dio contact was with the North Bay tower 10 minutes after takeoff. He confirmed he was on course. An RCAF spokesman said a Dakota and an Albatross air- craft were searching the area. He said heavy snow was fall- ing and visibility was down to half a mile. He said 10 more search planes will fly into the area as soon as weather condit;pns im- prove. Jim Moar, a Kapuskasing pi- lot who. has flown the route of the missing plane, said there are "'lots of lakes to put down on but the area is very hilly and at night it would be tough to get down."

Brandt's anti - Communist So- cialists won 89 of the 140-seat House elected four years ago. West Berlin's Communist party, never represented in Parliament, lost a third of its popular vote. This was blamed largely on the wall. The Com- munist vote declined from 31,- 570 in 1959 to 20,887 ballots Sunday. In percentage of the to- tal votes, they decreased to 13 from 1.9 per cent. The Christian Democrats, 'ed by Franz Amrehn, deputy mayor in Brandt's coalition gov ernment of Socialists and Cheis- tian Democrats, won 41 seats, a drop of 14. They lost more than 160,000 votes.

An independ- ent who sat in the last House was not returned. Political observers said the city election gave no new key to the West German political situation. Berlin, like most big German cities, is a traditional Socialist stronghold. Chancel'or Konrad Adenauer's Christian Democratic party is strong in small towns and rural areas. The Christian Democrats are largely a Roman Catholic party. West Berlin is predominantly Protestant. The Socialists and Christian Democrats had formed a gov- ernment coalition to . demon- strate the unified opposition of the city's major political groups to the East German Commu- nists encircling West Gerlin.
