General Motors Corp.
And UAW Reach Terms
. . . Walkout Is Over
DETROIT UR — The issue that
triggered a snowballing plant-by
plant strike against General
Motors Corp. by the United Auto
Workers Union was settled over
night.
When agreement came, 91 GM
plants were shut across the na
tion and 253,199 men were idle
with indications that the remain
der of GM’s 129 plants and 350,
000 production workers would be
idled in a matter of days, if not
hours.
The No. 1 issue on which local
level strikes started erupting
Monday was the amount of relief
time afforded assembly and pro
duction line workers.
An all-night bargaining ses
sion Sunday failed to resolve the
dispute and carried new contract
negotiations past Monday’s 10
a. m. strike deadline.
But within four hours after a
fresh start Monday night agree
ment was reached on a fasmula
reportedly suggested by Secretary
of Labor Arthur Goldberg.
UAW President Walter Reuther
predicted settlement of the relief
time issue would materially speed
wrapping up of a new three-year
contract between his union and
the world’s largest auto maker.
They have agreed on an econo
mic package which the union es
timates is worth 12.04 cents hour
ly in take-home pay.

a serious effect on fishing acti
vities.”

serves the right to compensation

Soviets Set Off
7th Nuclear Blast
In 12 Davs
WASHINGTON Uft — The So
viet Union set off another nuclear
explosion in the air early Tues
day, the Atomic Energy Com
mission announced. This one was
in the Arctic region in the vicinity
of Novaya Zemlya Island.
It was on the order of several
megatons — an explosive force
equal to several million tons of
TNT, the ABC said.
It was the seventh explosion
set off by the Soviets since they
resumed nuclear testing.
The latest blasts before were
set off Sunday, also near the same
Arctic island. One of Sunday’s
tests also was of several mega
tons size —> a far bigger punch
than other explosions of the
series.
Aside from the two big ones,
the Soviet explosions have ranged
from the 20,000-ton equivalent of
the bomb the United States used
at Hiroshima.
All of the devices set off so
far have been far smaller than
the 100-megaton monster which
Premier Khrushchev has pro
claimed the Russians will reach.
All have been set off in the at
mosphere.
Norway Plant Evacuation
If Radioactive Falleut Increases
OSLO iJFi — Authorities plan to

active fallout, a Civil Defense

Sverre Servan, Civil Defense
"Adjutant, said that 60 observation
stations are operating in the north
of Norway to warn the popula
tion if any of the Soviet test ex
plosions create dangerous condi
tions.
