A local union president ordered his dockers not to report for work. Leaders of the, wildcat walkout owed to tie up every pier in the world's greatest port by nightfall. The Staten Island stoppage im- mediately - threatened 'delay in- the movement of military cargoes and personnel abroad. The spreading walkout threaten- ed to halt all defence shipments for Korea and other military out- posts passing through this two state harbor. While a federal mediation: panel prepared to take up the contract dispute today, New York City's po- lice force made special arrange- ments to cope with any violence that might break out. Leaders of the International Longshoremen's Association (AFL), defeated in week-long ef- forts to break the strike by dis- sident members, said the city and federal governments now must try to settle the contract dispute. It was estimated that almost 100 piers and 60 ships were hit byt the srtike up to last night. The idle docks include army installations in Brooklyn and Jersey City, N.J. Yesterday longshoremen suc- ceeded in hampering unloading operations when the giant Cunard liner, Queen Mary, arrived here. Then they 'went to New Jersey and stopped work on several piers in Jersey City and Hoboken. The strikers are protesting a new pact with shipping and stevedoring operators, ratified recently by a majority of the 65,000 ILA mem- bers from Maine to Virginia. The strikers want a 25-cent-an- hour pay increase and a revision of several other clauses in the con- tract. The employers granted a 10- cent boost, bringing the average hourly wage to $2.10.

The two five-man negotiating commiftees will meet in a faded yellow tent at Panmunjom} midway between opposing front lines. They will take up right where they left off at Kaesong--on the question of where to create a demilitarized zone for the armistice. The Reds suspended the Kaesong talks on Aug. 23. They charged the allies bombed Kaesong neutral zone the day before but the allies denied the charge. U.N. and Communist liaison of- ficers completed their arrange- ments for renewal of negotiations by signing an eight-point security pact at 10:45 a.m. Monday. Three hours and 20 minutes later the U.N. ratification was de- livered to the Reds at Panmun- jom. It called on the Communists to {renew truce talks without further dealy."

Winding Up Campaign London (AP) -- Election cam-, paigning moved into the closing | stages today, and political fore- casts were almost unanimous in predicting victory for the Conser- vative party led by Winston Churchill. Latest reports today from politi- cal soundings-all over the United Kingdom, as reported by London newspapers, told the same ry with varying details--a forecast the Conservatives will defeat the La- "bor party in Thursday's voting. | Estimates of tlie expecied Tory majority in the House of a ranged from 43 to 100 .eats. ¥ It is a notable fact that, through- out this campaign the heavy weight of opinion -- as reported in public opinion tests of various types and shapes -- has favored the Conserv- atives. : . Not every political observer in London, by any means, is con- vinced of the accuracy of the polls. Since the great majority of Brit~ ish newspapers are Conservative, 'the feeling exists that these uni- form results. may he part of dwagon®' technique. Even the Conservative = Daily Mail reported that the voiers "aie i |not only silent, but secretive." It i said that, despite the polls, the re- sult of the. election may well de- pend on last-minute decisions. Conservative candidates did not campaign Sunday, in conformity with tradition.

Fear that -strikes would blossom under a Conservative. government is frequently expressed by people of differe! political * affiliations here. Industrial strife at this time thus would be doubly serious. The Daily Mail called Robens' statement a "threat."' It comment- "We hesitate to believe that Mr. Attlee has so little trust in the good sense or good faith of the orkers.

Clark Named Protestants Protest Truman's Appointing Ambassador to Vatican Washington (AP) -- A wave of protest against President Truman's decision to enter regular diplomatic | relations with the Vatican promised today to touch off a heated battle when congress reconvenes. There was little if any criticism of the president's selection of Gen. Mark Clark as ambassador to the Roman Catholic Church state. The protests, some of them from the pulpit, were from Protestants who argued the establishment of diplo- matic relations violates the consti- tutional injunction that church and state shall be separate. The United States has never had a full ambassador at the Vatican, although Myron C. Taylor served there as personal representative of Presidents Roosevelt and Truman from 1950 wiiiil iast Jan. 18, when he resigned.
