Boston Criers Win Competition JAKARTA (AP) -- The long dormant Indonesian parliament met today amid speculation that it would lay the groundwork for moves to curb President Su- karno's powers further.

He added that some firms were calling in the mechanics and maintenance men Sunday night in attempts to have the trucks moving today. The consensus at a meeting of trucking firm representatives Sunday night was that trucking rates will have to be increased | because of the new contracts, the spokesman said. | The strike, involving some 8,500 drivers and maintenance men, officially ended Sunday afternoon when maintenance men voted more than 80 per cent in favor of accepting a new contract. VOTE FOR RETURN | Drivers and warehousemen had voted Saturday to return to work, but the agreement on the new contract hinged on whether the maintenance men_ and mechanics would accept the Joe Contaret;chairman of the maint workers bargain- ing committee, said: "We are requesting all our members to be available for work today, or as required by employers." A spokesman for the Motor Transport Industrial Relations Bureau, representing the truck- ing companies, said 'All em- ployees will be called as re- quired but it will take one or two weeks before things are back to normal." Trucking firm representatives met Sunday night to discuss an early resumption of highway | transport. Marshall Davis, president of Inter - City Truck Lines Ltd., said he expects some trucks on the road today. The provincial department of labor announced Saturday that Teamsters had voted 4,369 to 885 to accept the trucking com- pany proposals for drivers and warehousemen. TAKE MAIL VOTE The voting was done by mail from the five Ontario locals-- Hamilton, Toronto, London, Windsor and Kingston -- after the union had reached a pre- liminary agreement with the trucking companies. Under the new contract Teamsters will get a 70-cent-an- hour wage increase and a 40- hour work week within three years. They will receive an ad- ditional 17. cents an, hour in fringe benefits. ; : City drivers 'were paid a 'basic $2 an hour before the strike | Terms of the maintenance) contract accepted Sunday call for wage increases of 96 cents an hour for skilled classifica- tions over the next 2% years, and 77 cents an hour for semi- skilled classifications. Present rate for skilled work- ers is about $2.30 an hour. CUTS WORK WEEK The contract also calls for re- duction of the work week to 40 from the previous 48 hours in a three-year period. The contract for maintenance men and mechanics expired last May. The drivers and warehousemens' contract ex- pired last September. The strike began Jan. 18 when workers at two Toronto firms walked off their jobs. The bu- reau retaliated by closing all 55 member firms. Several picket- ing incidents and bargaining sessions followed before the un- ion executive accepted a com- pany proposal, and the general union membership turned it down. The union finally agreed on a vote by mail supervised by the Ontario department of labor to settle the issue. The strike disrupted transport across the province and forced railways and airlines to place embargoes on freight.
