TWENTY-FOUR PAGES DETROIT (AP) -- Contract negotiations between Ford and the United Auto Workers Un- ion entered the crisis stage to- day with a strike deadline only one day away. Bargainers were prepared to go around the clock if neces- sary to avoid a walkout of some 125,000 UAW members at Ford plants. In announcing that a strike deadline had been set for 11 a.m, Friday, UAW - President Walter Reuther told reporters that the two sides still were far apart on the non-economic is- sues of relief time and produc- tion standards. There also was disagreement on the question of wage inequities, he said. Reuther indicated, however, that the union was ready to ac- cept most of Ford's economic offer, which paralleled the set- tlement reached at Chrysler last week. Potential strike U.K. Tories Favor Own Deterrent LONDON (Reuters)--The rul- ing Conservative party today said Britain must in the last resort have independently-con- trolled nuclear power to deter an aggressor, The party's election platform, issued today, said: "We possess this power today. Only under a Conservative government will we possess it in the future." The first and major empha- sis of the platform, underlined in a personal foreword by Prime Minister Sir Alec Doug- las-Home, was on defence and foreign policy.

There was still the possibility of a walkout at a few plants where local grievances had not been resolved. SET DEADLINE In addition, a strike deadline of 11-a.m. Friday has been se in contract negotiations for some 7,000 white collar workers in office, clerical and engineer- ing jobs. Last week's Chrysler settle- ment--which is expected to set the pattern for the entire auto industry -- included an early retirement incentive program, longer vacations, added _holi- days and assumption by the company of all medical and hospital insurance payments. The retirement program calls for a pension of up to $400 a month for workers retiring at age 60 after 30 years' service. When the worker reached 65, jpayments would drop off to a |lower rate, but some of the slack would be taken by social security. Both Reuther and Ford said they believed there was still time to reach a settlement be- fore the strike deadline. Ford was hit by a wildcat walkout Tuesday at its huge Rouge manufacturing complex. The strike angered Reuther be- cause it resulted in a five-hour breakoff of negotiations just as they were reaching a critical Stage. | | OTTAWA (CP) -- Unemploy- jment in Canada was estimated jat 247,000 in mid-August, down 118,000 from July and 23,000 lower than in mid-August last year. The latest jobless total equalled 3.4 per cent of the la- bor force, the lowest mid-Au- gust unemployment rate since the boom year of 1957. Regionally, the jobless rate ranged from a low of 1.9 per cent on the Prai:fes to five per cent in Quebec. It was 4.6 per cent in the Atlantic provinces, 2.6 per cent in Ontario and 3.9 per. cent in British Columbia. The figures were prepared jointly by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the labor de- partment, using results of a sample survey of 35,000 Cana- dian households in the week ended Aug. 22. The job picture in brief, with| estimates in thousands: | Aug.

But, when smoke began to fill the living room and the motor burst into flame, every- one thought it was hot enough. Firefighters were called to cool the flaming record player. There was no other damage to the home. The report said the drop in| unemployment between July and August was concentrated among teen-agers who left the labor market "in significant numbers" in August. Employment changed litt le from a month earlier, But over the year it was up 211,000, about 3.1 per cent. Non-farm employment rose by 271,000 or 4.5 per cent. The report said the largest gains in employment were in the service industries, manufac- turing, and trade. Construction lemployment was: some what lower than a year earlier. OTTAWA. (CP) -- The Com mons flag committee, 15 MPs charged with taking the. heat off an explosive national issue, meets 'today for the first time. One of the first actions of the seven Liberals, five Progres- sive Conservatives, one New | 'and one Creditiste is expected to be to call on Herman M. Batten, 55 - year ~ old former high school principal, to pre- side as chairman. Mr. Batten, Liberal MP for the Newfound- land constituency of Humber- St. George's, is the chairman of house committees whose ju- dicious rulings, delivered in im- peccable English, have won him respect on all sides in the Commons. He says he believes the com: mittee can come up with an ac- ceptable solution to the flag is- sue which deadlocked the House for weeks. Anyone who mentions the word "instructions" in the sense that the government has issued any to him gets fixed firmly with a steady eye as Mr. Batten says with emphasis: "If any attempt is made to Democrat, one Social Crediter| 15 MPs Sit On Hot Issue have anything iv do with it. No- body has tried to instruct me." | Several committee members |estimate it will take two or |three meetings before the com- |mittee gets into the real work \of finding an acceptable flag | design. Such preliminary steps as electing a chairman and vice- chairman come first. As a special committee it will have to decide what its rules of pro- cedure are -- these are pro- vided by the Commons for standing committees but not special committees. With more than 4,000 flag de- signs already available, and the expectation of hundreds more in receiving written rep- resentations, the committee will have to figure out how to nar- row them down to more man- jageable numbers . Another expected problem surrounds the fact that the committee is to hold most of its sessions behind closed doors. This was agreed on by the party leaders when they de- cided to get the flag issue out of the Commons and into a | igive me instructions, I won't! committee. Statistics Record Jobless Decrease t| Water, Mud Hit Farm employment in August was estimated at 714,000, down 60,000 from August, 1963. ESTIMATES DURATION Of the total unemployed, the report .estimated that 181,000 had been jobless for three months or less. The other 66,- 000 had been seeking work for four months or more. The jobless rate, as a propor- tion_of the labor force, fell to 3.4 per.cent in mid - August from 3.7 in July. In August last year it was 3.8. Ontario _ had _an__ estimated 2,578,000 employed in mid-Au- gust, up 102,000 from. August last year. Unemployment fell in the same period by 4,000 to 68,000. The unemployment rate edged down to 2.6 per cent from 2.8 in August last year. Logging Camps CAMPBELL RIVER, B.C. (CP)--Torrents of water and mud crashed through two coastal logging camps Wednes- day, carrying most of both camps into the sea. Four persons are presumed dead, Some survivors were evacu- ated by seaplane, boat and hel- icopter, and others walked to a nearby camp shortly before a bridge floated away. behind them. Several persons are in hospital at this. Vancouver Is- land town across the Strait of Georgia from the slide areas, The worst slide occurred at the Cattermole timber camp on Ramsay Arm, 150 miles north- west of Vancouver, where a churning wall of mud 50 feet thick in some places and 1,000 feet wide broke loose. One man was pulled alive from the mud, but timekeeper Harold Bell, about 45, cook's assistant Norman Cooper, 49, and Mrs. Ted Inkpen, 48, gfe of a camp mechanic, were miss- ing. On. the other side of the mountain, at Canadian Collier- ies' No, 3 camp on Bute Inlet, Tom Chipenoff was believed drowned when a wharf was washed away. Two inches of rain in 12 hours weakened a_ logged-off area overhanging the Ramsay Arm camp. The slide began at about the 1,500-foot level and gath- ered logs, trees and rocks as it went. Promises Divide Nation Says Dief CHARLOTTETOWN (CP) -- Opposition Leader Diefenbaker said Wednesday night the prom- ises made by Prime Minister Pearson during the last federal election campaign have divided Canada. Mr. Diefenbaker told the Prince Edward Island Progres- sive Conservative Association: "It's an awful thing that we should be discussing in Parlia- ment whether or not the Queen will be safe in Canada.

The Cypriot position was put before the Security Council Wednesday as it opened debate on Thant's request to extend the life of the force from Sept. 26 to Dec. 26. The council also heard Thant announce the name of the new UN mediator to seek a political settlement between Greek and Turkish communities on the is- land. He is Galo Plaza, 58-year- old former president of Ecua- dor who has been serving as Thant's personal representative in Cyprus. Plaza succeeds Finnish diplo- mat Sakari Tuomioja, who died in Geneva Sept. 9. The Security Council is ex- pected to approve continuation of the Cyprus force, possibly Friday or Monday. But there' is no indication that it will lay down rougher terms of refer- ence for the force or spell out how it is to be financed. Thant advised the council last week that there was a "'serious need" for clarification of the powers of the 6,160-man force. He indicated that if the force remains in Cyprus, he will is- sue new guidelines to its com- mander in three main areas: 1. °The force should have "such unrestricted freedom of movement as may considered essential 'by the force com- UN Convoy Brings Food NICOSIA (AP) -- A United Nations convoy delivered six tons of Turkish food to the de- fiant Turkish-Cypriots in the northwest village of Kokkina Wednesday.

Canada, largest contributor to the force with a contingent of 1,130 men, is known to have pressed Thant for stronger terms of reference.
