boost productivity - in coming peace talks.

The shipyard strike. which ea- tered its ninth day Sunday. in- volves 200,000 men in 70 yards and affects construction and repair work on about 600 vessels.

DISPUTED PRODUCTION

The factory stoppage. involving 1.000.000 men who launched their strike Saturday. has disrupted pro- duction of dozens of products ranging from sewing machines ta the "whispering giant." Britain's lstest turbo-prop airliner.

A series of selected strikes in factories throughout the country was scheduled to last until April 6, when the mass strike was to begin.

Representatives of the shipyard employers and the union confed- eration are expected to meet to- ill? at the ministry of labor here.

Negotiations will be based on a formula reached at government sponsored talks Friday night.

The formula is understood to be on the same lines as I railroad workers' pay settlement reached earlier on Friday when the British transport commission. which runs

the state rail system. agreed to a

five-per-cent pay riase for 400.000

workers.

CONSIDER PROBLEMS

In return for this award. lead- ers of the National Union of Bali- waymen. who had been talking of

- strike action. agreed to give ur-

gent considerstion to problems of greater modernization.

Fears that the giant Cunard Liner Queen Ezliabeth might not be able to dock in Southampton to

Dockside workers forecast thu there would be no difficulty in her berthing because tug crews. dock- ers and crane-divers all returned to work Saturday.

The men walked out in protest against the use of naval tugs to help the 81.000 - ton Queen Mary sail after she had been "black- listed" by the shipyard workers.

Trey claimed the Cunard Liner had not completed her winter over- haul when the shipyard strtlne be

Unique Bigamy Case At Halifax

HALIFAX (CP) - A young mother who passed herself off to her husband as an "identical cou- sin" after going through a form of marriage with his friend, has had her sentence on I bigsmy con- viction deferred.

Mrs. Margaret Veronica Fob well. 20. mother of three children and expecting another, sppcsred briefly in city police court befon Magistrate J. F. MacManus Fri- day.

Crown counsel Peter O'Hearn told the court Mrs. Forwell mar- ried another seilor last fall while her husband was at sea. Both are able in the C "' navy. He said she married the second sailor to double her navy allot- ment for wives. She had married Forwell when she was '16.

Apparently she convinced both Forwell. formerly of Welland. Ont. and Garnet Bass, of Barrie. Ont., that she was her own cousin and I double of herself.

STAYED AT APARTMENT Bass. a friend and shlpmsbe of Forwcli. stayed at their apartment between voyages. Then last fall Forwell was drafted to IMIJIC ship and went to sea. Bass con- tinued to stay at the apartment. One day Mrs. Forwell told him she was not actually Mrs. For- well but a cousin who had come to the children. Mrs. Forwell had! gone to Ontario to work.'IIe

Goose Bay Has Worst Winter Storm

GOOSE BAY. Labrador (CPL- The most serious storm of the winter hit this Labrador air base Friday night and by Sunday morn- ing bad plastered the area with 2.1 inches of snow.

The storm showed no signs of letting up and weather observers fllured it was lflod for another 24 hours from 8 a.m. Sunday. Snow fell at the rate of half an inch an. hour and 40-mile an hour winds piled it in drifts that covered automobiles and small buildings. However. snow removal crews working around the clock and using land-moving bulldozers kept the runways open and air traffic was not affected.

There was little chance of hit- ting last year's winter record snowfall of 222 12221 inch;-5, how. ever. Snowfall this year up to sun. day morning was about 153 inches. The storm may set a record for March- 41.8 inches has fallen so far this month and the record is 50.7 inches.

No Trace of Two Aircraft

HALIFAX (CPI .. The Search for a single-engine civilian air- craft missing since Friday in the K005 1-like. Que-. area was ham- pered by bad weather Sunday and I second search for a missing naval Avenger continued without success.

An RCAF search and rescue Spokesman said little searching was done for the civilian aircraft. carrying an unidentified pilot and passenger. because of II low ceil- ing and poor visibility in the Knob Lake area.

The aircraft was en route from Knob Lake to a fishing spot with the passenger.

Earlier. the two-sealer aircraft took another man to the spot. be- lieved to be southwest of Knob Lake. He was picked up Saturday by I civilian Beaver aircraft frorri Knob Lake and will aid in the search.

Sunny weather blanketed the Maritimes Sunday but ground partial. planes and two naval hel- icopters were unsble to find I trace of Sub-Lt. Morris Komarin-

23, of Ethelbert, Man., mis- si' in his naval avenger since Monday.

'LONDON (Reuters)-Sir Pat- rick Abercrombie. international authority on town planning who reshaped Britain's war - scarred cities. died here Saturday after a brief illness. He was 77. Known as "the modern Wren." Abercrombie had as great an in-

as Sir Christopher Wren did upon the city three centuries ago.

In 1941. even while German bombs were falling. Iibcrcromble devised his 50-year plan for re- building Loiidon. Thc metropolis has adopted two of his main themes - satellite towns in the country to ccommodaie Lon- don's overflow populaiion and I green belt of parks and woods around the suburbs.

The lean planner, notcd for his prodigious energy. also designed the rebuilding of war-blitzed Ply- mouth. Hull. Warwick and many other cities. He drew up new town plans for fast-growing post- war centres such as Edinburgh and Bourncmoiith

CAIRO Ilieutersl - The Egyp- tian government and United Na- tions Secretary - General Dag Hammarskjold h s v e "reached agreement" on I solution to the Suez Canal issue. the government- sponsored Middle East News Agency reported Sunday night. A spokesman for Hammarskjold would not comment on the re- port.

A reliable foreign diplomatic source said later the talks be- tween Egyptian officials and Hammarskjold on the canal issue were "heading towards I reason- able solution."

"The solution remains to be accepted by the interested parties

so that agreement may be reached." he added. The agency report came as

preparations were being made for Hammarsklold to meet Egyptian President Nasser today. It will be their third conference since the secretary - general arrived here Thursday.

Several member countries of UNEF have said they will not keep up their troop contributions unless U'NEF's position in Egypt is clarified, a reliable foreign source said Sunday.
