Double Explosion
- At Queens Plant
NEW YORK (—An atomic re-

rocked by a double explosion to-
day. The Atomic Energy Com-
mission swiftly investigated and
said there was “no radiation haz-
ard” outside the building.
Nine persons were injured in the
blasts at the Sylvania Electric
Products Co.
The company said the explosion
was not of nuclear origin. Reports
that it might have been nuclear
spread swiftly through the city.
The AEC office switchboard was
swamped with inquiries.
The blasts, coming within sec-
onds of each other, damaged the
second floor of the metallurgy lab-

Finnegan talked by phone with
Arthur J. Goldberg, union gener-
al counsel, in New York and said
he expected to have another talk
with Goldberg today in Washing-

Goldberg said he and Finnegan
discusssed no concrete plans for
resumption of negotiations. The
union attorney said he doubts if
any negotiations would start until
after Independence Day.
Spokesmen for U.S. Steel, tra-
ditional leader of the industry,
said the company had not been
contacted by Finnegan. One said:
“Naturally, we will do every-
thing we can to get this situa-
tion corrected. But as yet we
have not been approached.”
The federal government had
kept "hands oil" during the long
period of negotiations which broke
off Saturday evening in New York.
McDonald declined to guess how
long the strike might last. He said
upon his return to Pittsburgh:
"It may be short or it may be
long. but the men are determined
to win a good agreement.”

Both the union and the basic
steel industry have indicated will-
ingness to return to the bargain-

made any move in that direction,
each apparently waiting for the
other to make the first overture.

Steel inventories, except in the

picture radically, hitting at the

Among the first to feel the ef-
fects were the railroads, which
derive a big part of their freight

Deliveries of finished steel and
raw materials have been halted.
However, no layoffs were re-

An ordinance prohibiting
all outside irrigation two
days a week was passed at
11:45 a.m. today in an emer-
gency session of City Com-
missioners, called by Chair-
man Bill Brooks at the re-
quest of Mayor Jack Bryson.
The ordinance carries a
penalty of a fine of “not
less than $10, and not more
than $200” to offenders.
The ordinance goes into ef-
fect Wednesday.
Citizens are now prohibited by
law from watering lawns, flowers
and shrubs from 8 a.m. Tuesday
until 8 a.m. Wednesday, and from
8 a.m. Friday until 8 a.m. Satur-
day.
The ordinance also gives water
production officials the right to
cut off water at any place in the
city where it is being wastefully
used, and gives the city the right
to disconnect the water from the
house of any repeating offender.
Swimming pool owners will also
have to secure permits from the
city before the pools can be ‘re-
filled.
City attorney Rogers Teel, who
drew up the ordinance after sev-
eral meetings with water produc-
tion officials, said he did not be.
lieve the disconnection clause
would have to be put into effect.
COOPERATION SHOWN
"The people of Denton showed
splendid cooperation during the
voluntary water rationing,” he
said. “I don’t believe things will

The ordinance states:
That the sprinkling of trees,
shrubs, grass, gardens or flowers,
shrubs, grass, gardens or flowers
is specifically prohibited.
That in order to permit a limi-
ted use of water, residents are
rationed only from 8 a.m. Tues-
day to 8 a.m. Wednesday, and
from 8 a.m. Friday to 8 a.m. sat
That no swimming pools—either
the college pools, or private resi-
dential pools—may be filled with-
out a permit from Bryson.
That any "person, firm or cor-
poration” within the city limits
who wastes water by allowing it
to run into the streets or alleys
is breaking the law.
That police officers and City
Water Department officials have
free access to all premises using
water for prohibited purposes to
check on whether the ordinance
is being violated.
FINES ARRANGED
That any person or firm who
breaks any provision of the ord-
inance will be guilty of a mis-
demeanor, and is liable to a fine
of 819 to 8200, and that each day
the ordinance is violated will
mean separate offence.

With that epitaph, two modern
airliners plunged to earth less
than a mile apart in the Grand
Canyon of Arizona Saturday.
Wrapped up in the unfinished
phrase, urgently spoken before
death by an unidentified crew
member of United Air Lines
Flight 718, was the fate of 128
lives lost in the scattered wreck-
age.
Denton County commissioners
this morning took under advise-
ment a proposal by the welfare
council to participate in a surplus
food distribution program for
needy families.
"We’re helping pay for this sur-
plus (federal) food with our taxes,
and we should be getting what we
can for our old people and other
needy families," said Joe Free-
man, council chairman.
The program is the same that
has been available to schools for
several months, but which ‘re-
cently was extended to include
towns and counties. -
The program provides flour,
meal. hooey, peanut butter, ham,
butter, cheese and other foods from
the federal government's stock of
surplus foods.

ty would be required to stand only

The two liners were next heard
from over the Arizona-California
