This reaction, appearing in a commentary by the Russian-con- trolled German news agency ADN, indicated the Russians will insist on holding four-power talks on the entire German problem before re-opening supply routes to Berlin. Britain, the United "States and France, in protest notes published Friday night, said they are willing to negotiate issues on the German criiss, but only after the Berlin blockade is lifted. They did not offer to resume talks on the future of all Germany. All three powers insisted they have the right to occupy their sec- tors of Berlin and warned they will not give way to "threats" or "pressure". They said they are rea- dy to negotiate the issues of Ber- lin but first the Russians must ]ift their food and fuel blockade. The notes from Washington and London were virtually indentical. The one from Paris was somewhat milder. . A specific reference to the Unit- ed Nations appeared in the Ameri- can note. State Secretary Marshall appealed to the Soviet Union to join in a peaceful settlement of the Berlin differences in line with Arti- cle 33 of the U.N. charter. This article not only calls for peaceful settlement methods among U.N. members but 'alsd "empowers the security council to. direct them to use such methods whenever it deems necessary. Moscow up to early today had not a word to say about the three- power notes. But shortly before the notes were made public, the Soviet-licen- sed news agency ADN announced in Berlin that the Russians would swimming by learning the fi tals from teacher Bill Simons, 111 pool.

Informed sources predicted the meetings, called by Labor Minister Mitchell after the breakdown of di- rect negotiations between the rail- ways and spokesmen for 150,000 union members, possibly would go on until Tuesday. Meanwhile, the companies and unions were still as far apart as they were when their negotiations broke off, with the unions still de- manding a 28-cent-an-hour in- crease and the railways offering 10 cents, Whether or not the Canadian economy was to be crippled by a countrywide rail transport stoppage July 15 depended on the govern- ments, getting the disputants to- gether. Frank H. Hall, chairman of the negotiating committee of 18 In. ternational unions representing 122,000 men, Friday said his group was still standing by its refusal to deal directly with the railways at this stage, A, R. Mosher, President of the 28,000-man Canadian Brotherhood of Railway Employees and other transport workers (C.C.L.), also de- clared his union was not dealing di- rectly with the companies. Mr. Hall also declared the In- ternational unions were standing by their latest demand of 28 cents an hour increases, and Mr. Mosher said his smaller organization was going along with the International unions in this respect. Both officers said that the July 15 general strike order of their unions was still in effect. Railway officials were silent on the outcome of the first day's pro- ceedings. Top officers of the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways appeared to be standing pat and waiting for the govern- ment or the unions to make the play. It was understood the: 10- cent, increase they had offered was the ultimate concession they were prepared to make, ' sary of the Battle of the Boyne. Taking part in the Orangemen's celebration which, this year for the | Eastern Ontario districts, is taking place in Cobourg, will be the Ladies | Orange Association, the True Blue Association and the Juvenile Lod- ges of the Orders. The lodges will be under the dir- ection of their Worshipful County Master Worshipful Bro. Robert J. Andrews and the parade will be marshalled by Worshipful Bro. GoGrdon Crawford, County Mar- | shall. Holding Memorial Service The program will start at 9 am. with a memorial service at Memor- ial Park in Oshawa conducted by | Rev. H. D. Cleverdon, rector of | Christ Memorial Anglican Church, | with the benediction by Rev. R. F. Wilson, minister of First Baptist Church. Prior to the service the | members of the various lodges will | assemble at the lodge rooms and parade to the cenotaph. | Following the service, which fis open to the general public, the As- sociations will re-assemble and par- ade to the C.P.R. static where they connection with the 258th anniver-| bourg have been released by the Cobourg committee. Lodges are ex- | pected from all over the district! and special trains will take Orange- | men from Oshawa and Lindsay. In- cluding the families of the lodge. | members, a total of 15,000 is expect- | ed to go to Cobourg and hotels, | restaurants and canteens are pre- | paring for a record day's business. | It is the first walk there since 1945. | Invitations have been sent to 235 individual lodges from the counties | of Peterborough, Northumberland and Durham, Victoria, Hastings and Ontario, and at Jeast 100 lod- ges are expected. Cobourg Kilties Band will head the big parade and it will be judged by Charles Gummow, Frank Park- inson and Colonel Stuart Craig. Mayor, Joseph Smith will extend the civic welcome to the visiting Orangemen and speakers will in- clude the Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, Earl Drope, M.P.; Right Worshipful Sister E. W. Moore, P.G.M. of Lind- say; Worshipful Brother H. Gib- son, CM. of Cobourg. John Er- skine is chairman. The Cobourg Lodge will be led by the bugle band of H.C.8.CS, Skeena. Hot, isn't it? It's not so bad to- day, though, for the members of Local 222, U.A.W.-C.I.0., who are having their annual. picnic .get- together in Lakeview Park. There, ice cream will drip on countless shirt-fronts and thousands of par- ched tongues will be relieved by an application of--soda pop. : On hand to satisfy the wants of the Union members and their fam- ilies are 7,000 coops of ice cream and 6,000 bottles of pop. In addi- tion to all this, there is a small supply of popcorn for the young- sters -- 3,000 boxes. The refresh- ments are to be handed out gratis, free and for nothing to all mem- bers of the union and their chil- dren. Of course, eating is not the only activity going on at Lakeview Park today. The family athlete will have lots of room to show off when he gets in on the races, horseshoe pit- ching, casting and softball, In the ball line, their will be a double- header played this afternoon--the first game, featuring the "Prince of Ice Cream, Popcorn And Soft Drinks Galore For Big U.A.W. Picnic Wales" team from Toronto vs. the UAWA team, will be played at 3.00 p.m. and the second game, at 6.00 pm. will pit the "United Stee!" team against the same UAWA team. Members of the UAWA team indignantly deny that' the rest be- tween games is to give them time to apply quantities of liniment. There will be facilities for all ages at the picnic, even the young- est. The Ladies' Auxiliary of the Union will operate a rest booth where mothers can leave tired chil- dren, while they enjoy the other U.AW. PICNIC .

Hays, United States Deputy Military Governor, sald today the Americans have "no in- tention of submitting" to new Rus- sian restrictions upon Allied motor traffic between Berlin and West Germany. British military authorities at the same time announced they would "completely ignore" the new Rus- sian move. A British spokesman said no official notification of the | new order had been received from | Soviet authorities early today. The Russians had announced | through their official news agency, ADN, that hehceforth no Western Allied highway traffic to or from | Berlin would be permitted except | on special Soviet travel permits. The Russians also ordered their | border patrols to search every Al- | lied vehicle to "prevent the trans- | port of forbidden goods." | Hays said the Russians had not | notified the United States Military Government officially of these new | regulations. The Russians have been issuing such notices through their controlled press with increas- ing frequency of late. When the Russian announce- ment was read to him over the | telephone Hays said: "There is no change in our atti- tude regarding free access to Ber- lin. We don't intend to submit to any new restrictions. We have the | right to free access and we intend to get it." Hays was not prepared to say what the United States action would be but referred to the Wash- ington protest note to Moscow. The note, issued jointly with Bri- | tish and French notes, demanded | that the Russians lift the ground | blockade of Berlin before there could be any negotiations of the issues involved in the East-West crisis.
