Detroit (AP)-- Picket lines ring- ed the Dodge main plant today in a dispute that threatened to shut down all other Chrysler Corpora- tion pl in the Detroit area. The dispute has centred around union charges of speed-ups at Chrysler plants. It finally led to the placing of the picket lines early today, around the big Dodge plant which employs 29,000 work- ers. Ward's automotive reports said that Dodge Local No. 3, United Auto Workers Union (CIO), voted last night to go on strike at the big plant, which employs 29,000 workers.

Cairo's reply to British protests also condemned the attitude of the master of freighter, the Empire Roach, and reiterated Egypt's so- vereignty in territorial waters and her right to blockade Israel. The reply was said to describe the boarding as a "regrettable in- cident."

Determined opponents 'who claim to have a majority of the 26 members of the committee lined up on their side, were expected to exert every effort to defeat the bill at their fifth closed-door ses- sion in nine days. One proponent, who asked that he not be identified, said it was his feeling that 14 members of 'the committee -- a majority -- are prepared to vote against the bill. His side's main hope, he said, is to try to delay a vote until. 27th member is appointed who will be favorable to the seaway and then pick up another supporter from the' opposition side. A successor to Representative Henderson Lanham (Dem. Ga.), one of the two members who re- signed yesterday, will be named to the committee in the near future. Lanham had been a supporter of the bill. The other resigned member, Re- presentative Robert Secrest (Dem. Ohio) -- opposed to the bill -- has been succeeded by Representative T. M., Machrowicz (Dem. Mich), who is for the legislation. he committee yesterday voted to write into the bill a provision to prohibit New York state from taking over ownership of the pro- posed power project. This means that if congress ap- proves that proviso in legislation to authorize the power project and seaway development, the power phase would be under federal con- trol and ownership. Proposals had been made for New York to control the power project and eventually to own it. Ford Dispute On Trim Line Deadlocked Windsor (CP) -- TI -- The "trim line" dispute between the Ford Motor Company of Canada and United Automobile Workers (CIO) contin- ued in a dead heat Wednesday. Zhe differences arose following lay-offs of several thousand em- ployees in the last few days. The company said the exact number was "not available." The union accused the company of speeding up- production. The company in turn accused the work- ers of slowing up. The union then formally approved ¢he employees' move, After Wednesday's company union meeting, George Burt, reg- ional director of the union, said the dispute narrowed to the trim de- tpartment of the company. He added that nothing was accomplish- ed to solve the problem. Tuesday, some 200 hourly-rated employees in the Chrysler Corpora- tion's truck plant here also were laid off, but Chrysler officials said they would return to work Friday.

"No progress" was .made, the United 'Nations said. ; Tomorrow's meeting will tell the story, an official spokesman pre- dicted. : '"We"ll-.come to an agreement or there will. be an air of finality about the disagreement," said Lt.- Col. W. J. Preston. Neither the Communist nor the United Nations delegation would budge from its previous position on the one basic issue under de- bate, said Preston. He attended the sessions at Kaesong. The issue is believed to be the Communist demand that foreign troops withdraw from Korea al- though no one has said so officially 'Bach side was very emphatic in its stand," said Preston. "Never have I heard the same thing stated in. so. many different ways than today. bi Each statement was just as em- phatic -- or even more so -- than the previous one."

Britain May Sign Oil Pact With Canada \ -- Calgary (CP) -- 'The Albertan says today in a newspage story that an Anglo - Canadian trade agreement involving Alberta oil may develop should the British government make huge investment in provincial oil fields as a result of the Iranian oil crisis. The paper says this opinion was voiced by Clifford B. Powell, mem- ber of the dollar - sterling trade board, in a telephone interview from Montreal. The story said Mr. Powell, who announced the contemplated invest- ments in Alberta oil on his arrival Monday in Canada said such an agreement would be more advant- ageous to Britain than paying the full bill in hard-to-get dollars for U. 8. oil.

On the contrary, the positions of the two sides are so sharply opposed that it is difficult to foresee how a compromise can be arranged or how either side may back down, The possibility remains that at the present stage of the talks the main Communist concern may be to discover exactly how great a price they must pay for peace in Korea, If that is true, they may be willing in the final showdown to withdraw" materially from their stand as reported in a Moscow ra- dio broadcast last night. This broadcast, quoting a Tass dispatch from the .Korean Com- munist capital, Pyongyang and thus not a government announcement, said the Red Korean General Nam II had told UN. negotiators he would "Insist on the 38th parallel as the demarcation line between the opposing forces during an armistice and on the withdrawal of foreign troops from Korea as a guarantee against the resumption of hostili- A little edoler, ties in Korea." r i, Of the two points, that of foreign ° troops is considered here to be of far more importance now. The talks are still technically concerned with working out an agenda. It is understood here on the basis of official reports that the: Commu= nists had at least tentatively ac- cepted the U.S. proposal for listing one agenda subject simply as dise cussion of a demarcation line, with out specifying the 38th parallel. The Moscow broadcast made clear, however, that the real argu- ment over w ere the buffer zone between the troops should run still is to be made. But the issue of foreign troops raises this different question: Should it. be discussed at all dur- ing the present. negotiations? The Reds have declared it is essential not only that it be discussed but also that it be agreed to by the U.N. negotiators. Gen, Ridgway's instructions, however, are reported to specify that since this is a political mat= ter and outsidg the scope of purely armistice problems, it is. not suite. able for distussion at Kaesong. In the American view it must not be permitted to come up until after an armistice has actually been- made effective.
