Dockers Meet Tonight "Halifax, Nov. 24 -- (CP) -- Hali- fax's 2,000 longshoremen tonight will decide whether they will re- sume handling ocean-going vessels diverted here by the United States ports strike. The Halifax Longshoremen's As- sociation (AF.L.) Tuesday reached | a decision not to work diverted ves- | sels until tonight's meettg. This | decision was a return to a stand | taken Nov. 17, rescinded two days! later after the Halifax union had considered its legal position. As things stood early today, only two diverted vessels were being worked on the Halifax waterfront-- the liner Media and the Wester- dam, Unlcading operations on both shigs had started before Tuesday's announcement. Harbor Master Dennis Moriarity said last night the longshoremen's decision would have "little effect for a week or so because there are no diverted ships due to arrive in that period." E. A. Saunders, secretary of the Halifax Board of Trade, Tuesday night was the first official to comn- firm that the longshoremen here had decided not to handle ships diverted here by the American strike. J. J. Campbell, head of Halifax's stevedore union, declined comment on the situation. When asked whe- ther officials were 'passing the buck," Mr. Campbell replied: "You get the idea." It was reported earlier that long- shoremen here are seeking a new contract agreement with shipping companies. contract--with a basic rate of $1.20 an hour--ex- pires Nov. 30. Workers were said to be asking increases of 25 cents an hour. Tuesday night Federal conciliator Pettigrove commented only: "Mr. Campbell knows he is liable to a personal fine of $100 every day the men are idle and his union will be taxed $1,000 a day should the men not work diverted ships --without first going through conciliation pro- | ceedings." Red Sweep MeansHigher Cost To U.S. Washington, Nov. 24--(AP)--The Communist sweep in China appears certain to cost the United States more billions in foreign aid over the next few years--whether or not she decides to givc grand scale help to Generalissimo 'Chiang Kai-Shek. As *policy planners here see the picture, two points stand out: 1. If President Truman and State Secretary Marshall deter- mine that China still can be saved from Communism--and decide to go ahead with an aid program-- they will have to ask the new-Con- gress for several hundred million dollars at least, And that would be Just a starter, since any new China program is regarded as a long-term undertaking. 2, If--in spite of American help or without it--all China falls to the Communists, the task of re- building Japan and providing it with a stable economy will be much more costly. That is because Japan would find trade relations with Communist China more difficult. In addition, if a Communist China should prove actively hostile to the w.st in a cold war, military leaders might consider it essential to strengtflen American defences in the Western Pacific. Thdt, howev- er, is no more than a speculative possibility at the moment. Marshall was scheduled to meet the president again today for their Their first talk took place Monday shortly after Marshall returned from the United {ations meeting at Paris. Marshall ar.anged to hold a press conference at 3.30 p.m. EST after his talk with the President. Meanwhile, it is understood that Chiang, in connection with his ap- peal to Truman for urgent assist- ance, proposed that a prominent American military leader--someone with great prestige--be sent to head the United Nations military mission | in China.

Reds Gaining In Struggle For Nanking Nanking, Nov, 24 (AP). -- The Chinese government today continued | to win the battle of Suchow on | paper, but neutral sources believed | it was steadily losing vital ground to hard-pressing Communists troops. Not even the pro-government newspaper reports agreed on what was happening. It was certain only that major fighting raged on the plains commanding the approach to this capital, less than 200 miles south of Suchow. The weather, a key factor, turned ! against the Suchow defenders. In- creasing cloudiness hampered air support such as helped Nationalist ground troops blunt the Commun- ists' opening offensive last week. Shanghai, 165 miles southeast of Nanking, showed its worry. Chinese officials discussed "total-war" plans, British authorities set up three safety zones for their women and children. United States Army planes evacuated American school children from Kulihg, China's summer capi- tal 460 miles west of Shanghai. Other aircraft evacuated 20 Ameri- cans from Hankow, 585 miles west. The main fighting appeared to have erupted on the eastern flank of the Suchow battle.

Night In Jail 'Held Sufficient Punishment Interlocking charges, one against !a youth who was driving a car {when he had no legal right to and | another . against - the youth's em- | ployer who sold him a car and | then failed.to report the sale were | beara in police court this morning 'before Magistrate Frank Ebbs. 1 The case wag more than a little | complicated. Keith VanVolkenburg, | 60 Wilson Road South, was the | employer of Charles E. Farley, T41 | | Rowena Street. He sold him a ear and failed to report the sale within | six days as required by law. Pur- | chaser of the car, Farley had had | kis licence to drive suspended a | year ago for a period of six months. While the six months had elapsed he had not given proof of financial responsibility, or in other word, had not received permission to take ou' insurance, as he was required by {law to do 'before he could again | operate a motor vehicle. Constable Charles Stainton testi- fied that he stopped Farley who was driving a car on Prospect Street on November 18. Farley ad- mitted he had no right to drive. Defence counsel Louis Hyman pointed out that Farley had been locked up in the "cooler" overnight One night in Osnawa's "famous black hole" was, he thought, pun- ishment enough for anybody. Un- der the section of the highway Traffic Act under, which Farley was charged, it would be impos- sible for the court to impound the car, inasmuch as the vehicle, right- | ly or wrongly, was still under Van Volkenburg's name, Mr. Hyman said. The Magistrate agreed.

Port Perry Youth Loses Licence For Six Months Giving judgment this morning, after hearing evidence at Whitby yesterday in two charges, one of failing to report an accident, the other of reckless driving against Joseph Andrew Luciano, 17, RR. 4, Port Perry, Magistrate' Frank S. Ebbs registered convictions in both charges. The first drew a fine of $25 and costs, the second one of $10 and costs. Luciano's license to drive was suspended for a period of six months. Luciano's story was greatly at variance with that told by the driv- er of the other car John L. Jarvis, 16 Birch Avenue, Long 'Branch. Said Jarvis: "On Saturday, Nov- ember 13, I was driving nosth on Highway No. 12, about three miles north of Whitby. Suddenly a car swung slightly over to my side of the road, striking both front and rear fenders. As it passed I could see it was an old red truck. I stop- ped and looked back but the truck went on. Apparently it had no lights after the impact." Jarvis had two passengers with him to corro- borate his story. Then Jarvis went to Whitby Po- lice 'office to report the accident. Whitby police turned the case over to Provincial Constable Jack Scott. Luciano gave his version of the accident, stating that the impact had occurred because Jarvis came right over on his side of the road, forcing him to the east shoulder. Provincial Constable Jack Scott told the court he had taken a state- ment from Luciano. It was largely the same as the evidence ziven in court. Later the same Saturday night, Whitby police Sergeant Ron- ald Love had seen an old red truck starting out on Highway No. 12 and had given chase. It proved to be the wanted vehicle but another driver was at the wheel who stated that Luciano had asked him to take the truck home while he. went to a dance. : Constable Scott was not in a po- sition to comment upon the di- vergent stories of the drivers since he had not taken up the investiga- tion until later and had not ex- amined the scene of the accident. "I will have to take the evidence of those in the Jarvis car in pre- ference to yours," Magistrate Ebbs told Luciano. "Also you failed to report this to the police." A counter-charge of careless driv- ing against Jarvis had been laid at the insistance of Luciano but this was dismissed. Judgment was reserved because Magistrate Ebbs felt Luciano's fath- er or relatives should be in court in his behalf. Germs Beware!

Steel Output Little Help To Consumer New York, Nov. 24 -- (AP) -- Steel is being: tumed out "at a rate which ought to go a long way mext year toward taking steel people off a perennial barbecue spit," the Iron Age, metalworking trade week- ly, said today. The publication conceded that probable 1949 output -- barring strikes -- of more than 92,000,000 tons of ingots "is not much help to steel consumers today." And it added: "One thing seems certain: If steel is as short by the end of 1949 as it is now there will be more fireworks over the capacity problem than the industry has seen yet." Capacity figures mean nothing, the Iron Age said, unless "what we have is used." Production in the last three years has been hampered, it related, by strikes, and by shortages of labor, iron, coal and scrap. Electric power also was cited as a major hurdle steel has faced in pushing output to current high levels. That power shortages have not yet cut seriously into steel fab- rication or output was attributed to "some outlandish gyrating in changing schedules, plants, pro- duct-mix and a few other things." "In Cleveland," the Iron Age re- ported, "a rationing program is in effect to cut industrial power con- sumption at peak hours. Parts of Pittsburgh will come under a simi- lar plan the first of December. "It has worked quite well in Cleveland * because industry there has been able to figure out ways of shifting power loans to off-peak hours. Steel mills, for instance, try to schedule their operations so that the big mills are down for roll changes during the top-demand hours." The trade weekly said that "be- cause of the difficulty of re- scheduling a few finishing mills now running a full three turns a day, it is likely that a little fine ished. steel may be lost in the Pittsburgh distri® because of next winter's power cuts."
