The strike, which affects about 170 ships belonging to 18] Pe companies in the Lake Car- riers' Association, began one hour after adjournment of a meeting between represen- tatives of both sides in the of- fice of C. E. Poirier, a medi- ator for the federal labor department. Robert 'Cook, the guild spokes- man, said picket lines will be! set up as soon as possible. "We don't think the compa- nies made a serious effort," he said. "We put forth all sorts of formulas but none were ac- ceptable." Both sides are to meet again today at 10 a.m. Mr. Poirier, who was ap- pointed Tuesday by Labor Min- ister MacEachen to serve as mediator in the seven-month dispute, was chairman of a con- guild has with Upper Lakes) Shipping. The Upper Lakes provides for a wage increase of 17 per cent over three years. The associa- tion has offered the guild five per cent a year over the same riod.

(AP) Death From Sky, Death On Ground By RICHARD MYERSCOUGH SAIGON (Reuters)--Some 140 American aircraft today com- pleted the most savage U.S. air onslaught on North Viet Nam in a 24-hour period, a military spokesman said today. The air force and navy planes bombed military buildings, highways and bridges with 500- pound to 3,000-pound bombs and cut communications routes in at least 117'places, he said. The attacks were concen- trated on areas to the north and west of Hanoi and around the former French battlefield of Dien Bien Phu, near the Lao- tian border. In South Viet Nam, govern- ment troops today fought a vio- lent close-range battle with a full regiment of 4ome 2,000 well- equipped Viet Cong guerrillas. The fighting was in terrain apparently chosen by the guer- rillas--near the coust 355 miles U.K. Suggests Appeal To Ho LONDON (AP) -- Britain to- day proposed a i2-nation ap- peal to North Viet Nam to quit fighting and negotiate a peace.

The Viet Cong have long dominated the area, which is believed to be one of their main staging posts. Much of the fighting was at such close quarters that U.S. planes had difficulty dis- tinguishing Viet Cong targets. FLY SUPPORT ; But by late today they had flown 115 support raids in the greatest concentration of air power in South Viet Nam since last month's battles in the Ia Drang valley near the Cambo- dian border. A U.S. spokesman said the clash began before dawn and continued to rage at noon. No casualty reports had been re- ceived but it was feared losses were heavy among some Ele- ments of the government force. Government ranger units were reported badly mauled Wednesday in close-range fight- ing when they began their sixth attempt to clear the Viet Cong from the hills. Military spokesmen said two- thirds of a Ranger battalion was .lost, including six of the U.S. advisers with it. Two were killed and. four missing. The heavy fighting was tak- ing place in the area east of the government-held post of Viet An, a post which has been un- der almost continuous attack for the last two weeks.

He said Canada's ban on im- ports of Rhodesian goods will be extended to cover 90 per cent of these commodities with em- bargos on imports of ferro- chrome, chrome ores and. con- centrates, asbestos and meat. Imports from Rhodesia were valued at $4,300,000 in 1964. "Effective economic action should be taken to bring to an early end the illegal situation in Rhodesia," the external affairs minister said. "The Rhodesian situation has created a serious threat to Com- monwealth unity and. African stability."
