Tlhe vote-pa-slsed by 49 to 4— will be put to mass meetings at the dock gtatexs today.

Prospects of an end to the mouth-old strike now are at their briigvhltest. The only condition is that non-union dock labor be wltlidmaiwrn.

3 Shots At Moon

Planned

lVll1LW\AUKlEEE (AP)-—-The US. Air Force will shoot at the moon three times this year, its chief of research and development said Tuesday. But a disagreement de- veloped promptly between him and the defence deplartmenfs over-all space boss on the timing of the project-and the aim.

Attempts to hit the moon will be made in August, September and October with a modified mis- sile designed to “grlve some in- dication of its arrival,” Lt.-Gen. S. E. Anderson told a press con- ference here.

“We have talked about a lot of dates,” said Roy W. Johnson, director of the defence depart- ment’s Advanced Research Pro- jects Agency (AtR;P.A). “Rt - now it’s touch and go whether we can do it that early. No final de- clsion has been made.” '

“But,” Johnson told the Mll- wauikee Journal by telephone, “you can categorically deny that there will be an attempt to hit the moon." .

“There will be no attempt to make a direct impact. They will try to orbit the moon at best.”

“At worst, they hope to get around the moon once. They may find out what the back of the moon looks like.” '

sEcREcY IS WATCHWORD

HALIFAX (CP)—With secrecy her trade mark, a little, 1,000- ton ship sailed from here Tues- day to mine one of the world’s few remaining Klondikes — the ocean floor.

Owned by Risdon Bcazlcy Lim- ited of England, world’s largest deep-sea salvage firm, the Drox- ford and her 32-man crew will spend the summer anchored in an area 17 miles off. Gaspe in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

An informed source said she will work three dlerelrlcts, all victims of German torpedoes in the Second World War. The holds of the sunken ships ca-uried rich cargoes of copper ingots and oneton copper bars.

Last summer, working from the Twytford, the same crew salv- aged a cargo of copper from the sunken Greek freighter Mount Pindos in the same area. By working at 800 feet below the sur- face Brltish driver Frank Higgins set a world’s record for deep-sea salvage.

DOUBLES RECORD ,

The crew spent the winter -ln the Mediterreanea-n. It was both successful and u n s u c c e ssrful. They found a ship, but not the one they were seeking. At the same time Higgins almost dou- bled his previous diving mark by working at 1,450 feet.

The crew and gruff English skupper J-ilm Hunter have nothing but admiration forllinggins and the other diver alboard, Freddie Smith of the Shetland Islands.

Smith, with handle-bar mous- tache and pointed red heard, is the Hollywood dream of a diver.

Higgins, on the other hand is the living portrait of a success- ful banked‘. He walks with a limp, a reminder of an accident sev- eral -years ago when an air com- pressor stopped while he was be- low the surface. An ernengeucy a-scent gave him a severe case of the bendls—-nitrogen bubblesin

DEFENCIE PLANS OUTLINED

Arrow Output Assured .

OTTAWA (CP)~*Defence ‘Min- ister Plearkels left little doubt Tuesday that the government this fall will order the supersonic CF-1.05 jet interceptor into full production.

The builder, Avro Aircraft Limited, Malton, On-t., already has an order for 37 “l>I‘9-D=I“0d1lC- tion” Arrows required for full testing of the plane.

Mr. Pearkes told the Commons estimates c-ommitrtee that the Ar- row program will cost the gov- ernment $175,000,000 this fiscal year, bringing the total since de- velopment began to nearly $400,- 000,000.

He said the manned bomber will be used “for a long time to come” and that the CF-100 jet interceptor, now in RCAF serv- ice, will have to give way to a more modern type of ilitcrceplor.

other points made by the min- ister in his two-hour defence re-

view before the committee:

1. The navy will get six more new destroyers, bringing the to- tal to 20 instead of the previously announced 18. The keel would be laid for the first of these six this fall but the shipyard had not yet been seetllcted.

2. The army’s three brigades in Cwanada have been “down- graded” to a. strategic reserve but would be maintained to rotate the brigade in Ellrolpe every three years. Reason for this was the unlnikelih-ood that It would be pos>si‘b-le to reinforce the‘ bwri-gede in Europe from Canada in the early days of a nuclear war involving submarines.

3. A new system for control of jet interceptor operations will have to be introduced because of the necessity for more speed 111 air defence processes. A g1'0U11d control radial‘ station now could carry out only five interceptions at one time.
