WEST ORANGE COWGIRL TO COMPETE IN WYOMING
Ann Dormán Among Eight Texons Picked To Appear
One of Eight Texans Picked
WASHINGTON (AP)—President
Kennedy initiated steps Saturday
toward invoking the Taft-Hartley
law to halt the crippling maritime
strike. A decision is expected
Monday.
Kennedy assigned Secretary of
Labor Arthur J. Goldberg to sur-
vey strike effects over the week-
end to determine whether the
nation's health is in peril.
That is a judgment which the
law said the president must reach
before invoking Taft-Harley emer-
gency provisions allowing an 80-
day . court injunction against con-
tinuation of the strike, now in
its .ninth day. It would be late
next week, in any case, before an
injunction could he obtained.
Goldberg, in charge of the strik-
ing situation for Kennedy, told
reporters he was naturally disap-
pointed that the maritime unions
had rejected his earlier plan for
a 60-day'strike truce during which
a White House panel would rec-
ommend a solution. But he said
he was not criticizing anybody.
The secretary said the admin-
istration would have no hesitancy
in Invoking the Taft-Hartley law
now.
Making it clear he isn't sympa-
thetic with the law's provisions,
Goldberg said that it was the law
and would be enforced. Kennedy
voted against the law in Congress.
Kennedy acted to initiate the
strike-effects survey after confer-
ring with his' Labor secretory «t
the White House and later by tele-
hone. They had the benefit of a
report from Director William E.
Simkin of the Federal Mediation
Service, who had been in New.
York presiding over the stale-
mated maritime negotiations.
The strike, although taking a
toll of millions In lost revenues
daily, has not hit yet with full lm-
ipact. Over 150 transport and
passenger vessels are tied up at
1 docks, but the remaining 800 ships
of the U.S. merchant marine are
lying the high setrs. This is the

WASHINGTON (AP)-U.S for-
_ policy makers from Presi-
dent Kennedy down were more
deeply concerned Saturday about
the potentially explosive Berlin
crisis than any other cold war
problem that has been faced by
the new administration.
The Berlin threat overshadowed
Kennedy's two other major for-
eign policy tests so far—Cuba and
Laos—where U.S. strategists niil
saw room for maneuver and less
immediate menace to U.S. eecu-
talks at least should have 1 ?s.t-_
ened chances of a dangerous mis-
judgment by Khrushchev on the as simple as callin
Wests determination to hold on street," hé explains
simply by dialing an area code in
addition to the telephone number

Bailey said the company antici-
pated no difficulty in getting Or-
ange customers accustomed to thé
new service. "Dialing sjation-to-
sfation long distance calls is now

The military situation, further-
more, is such that any small
fight over Berlin could quickly be-
come a big one. Germany is in
