THOMAS (CP)--The first strike by civic employees in the history of St. Thomas is uader Way. The strike was started Friday by 51 members of two locals of the National Union of Public Employees (CLC). Local 35, which represents 34 works and. parks employees, wants higher wages. Local 841, which represents 17 city hall office workers, wants recogni- tion from city council. City employees not involved in the strike who will be re- sponsible for keeping the city in running order are, as City Clerk E. C, Reid puts it, "play- ing it by ear." E. B .Parker of London, Ont., a national representative of the union who is acting as agent for the two locals, has given assurance, however, that if an emergency endangering public safety does occur, such as 2 serious snow storm, the strikers will pitch in with assistance un-/ til it ends. Mayor Vincent A. Barrie, who} rejected an offer to mediate the strike after it started, said: "We are taking all possibie steps to see that city hall oper- ates efficiently and that emer- gency services are offered." City Engineer Howard S. Gib- son, giving an example of an emergency service, said that if city streets need sanding it wili be done by the 13 supervisory (staff members. Mr. Reid said that despite the strike, all city offices will be open "as usual."

Pope Praises Council For Good Start' VATICAN CITY (AP) -- Pope John, showing the strain of ill- ness, today closed the first phase of the Roman Catholic ecumenical council. today with an optimistic look to the future. He said he hoped the council would conclude its work in a year, and that he anticipated it would bring benefits for Chris- tian unity. The 8l-year-old Roman Cath- olic ruler addressed the 2,200 council fathers in St. Peter's Basilica. It was their last gathering be- fore a nine-month recess that will end Sept. 8 Pope John told them they had made "a good 'beginning" in the council's work, and then he ventured something he had never done before--an expres. sion of a possible target date for the council's conclusion. Many prelates have said the council could last years at its present pace The pontiff made thought differently. "There is hope," he said, "that the conclusion awaited by all our faithful children may be reached in the glory of the in- carnate Son of God in the joy of Christmas in the centenary year of the Council of Trent." That centenary year would be 1963.

Officials theorize that a spark ignited a mixture of methane gas and coal dust, touching off the blast. Forty-four other miners were working in different tunnels leading from the shaft. All were unharmed. It was the second expuosion in the 16-year history of Robena, The first, just last October, killed two miners. This mine together. with Ro- bena Nos. 1 and 2 make up the world's largest soft coal com. plex. Operations are highly au- tomated. Robena coal is shipped to U.S. Steel's Clairton (Pa.)\ works, where it is converted into coke to hear the corporation's iron- making blast furnaces in the Pittsburgh area. When the explosion rocked the| mine, the men were in an area some two miles from the verti- cal entrance, which extends 525 feet from the surface. The rescue work has been slow and tedious, due mainly to the mine's ventilation system to force out methane gas and car- bon monoxide, and to bring in vital fresh air.
