Milk Truckers Debate Strike NEW YORK WP)—Union leaders met today to decide whether there will be a milk truck drivers' strike that could affect deliveries to 17 million or more persons. A strike of tank truck drivers seeking higher pay would involve the entire state of New York and adjacent areas of Connecticut and New Jersey, a union spokesman said. About 20 leaders of the AFL Teamsters Union and local dele- gates of the union's milk industry locals attended the meeUng. The session was called after ne- gotiations with employers broke off Sunday night. Samuel Gelman, chairman of the union negotiators, told newsmen just before the meeting that "we don't want to strike" but that.if a walkout is called It will be a thorough one. He said Upstate New York. In- cluding such distant cities as Buf- falo, would be "hit just as hard'' as the New York metropolitan area in a strike. Gelman held that markets such as Rochester, Syracuse, Utica and Albany would feel the pinch as much as the metropolitan area even though they are closer % to farm sources. This would be so because prac- tically all movement of milk re- quires handling by the union some- where along the line, he said. Gel- man said movement of milk by train or by small independent pickup operations would not amount to more than "a trickle." The teamsters, he 8dded, would seek the cooperation of railroad unions to insure against move- ment of milk by rail In event of a strike. ' The union represents 1,000 milk tank truck drivers. It is seeking raises of 43 to 53 cents an hour over present base wage scales which range from SI .57. to $1.77. The employers have made sev- eral offers but the union has re- jected all of them. P0W Accused Of Aiding Reds NEW YORK <&> — A witness testified today that Sgt. James C. Gallagher, 2-1. on trial on charges of aiding the enemy while a Korean war prisoner and of mur- dering three fellow prisoners, de- livered three lectures in which he derided the American people. Specialist 1. C Lyle G. Swan- ton testified at the court-martial that the lectures Gallagher applied the terms "Wall Streeters. war- mongers and capitalists" to the American people. In one. Swanton testified. Gallagher alluded to "Wall Streeters and how they were wasting food and the people were .starving." The lectures, Swanton said, were given at POW camp No. 3, Chang- song, North Korea, in the summer and fall of 1952. "We. the other prisoners thought it was pretty rotten be-! cause he was a U.S. soldier," Swanton said. Before Swanton began to testify Gallagher lost his bid to escape trial. The defendant is from Brooklyn. Col. Laurence W. Lougee. law officer at the general court martial, rejected defense claims that the Army lost jurisdiction over offenses committed in the first term of enlistment when it gave gallagher an hondrable dls? charge dated Oct. 27, 1953. Galla- gher re-enlisted the next day. Gallagher is the first American soldier to be tried for a prison camp death by his own hands. The deaths in North Korean POW camp No. 5 were termed "unpre- meditated murder." He is charged with having forcibly ejected three sick fellow prisoners from their shelters and exposing them to "extremely cold temperature." All three were wea'k from dysentery, the charges said.

By Farm Burfiau On Pension Plan Legislation to encourage' volun- tary pension plans for farmers artd other self-employed persons Was recommended recently by the American Farm Bureau Federa- tion. Hugh F. Hall. AFBF legisla- tive assistant, told a House Ways and Means Couimittee hearing Farm Bureau favors the princi- ples of H.R. 9 and 10—the Jenkins- Keogh bills. . The bills would make available to farmers and other self-em- ployed workers ta.\ treatment comparable to that pixnided in the pension plans now in effect for many businesses. Both labor and management benefit from these plans. Benefit Substantial "Since pension plans benefit substantial numbers of employed postponment of income taxes on amounts paid into special plans approved by the Treasury Depart ment," Mr. Hall said, "it is proper that this advantage be ex- tended to other citizens." . "The large variation of farmers' income is evidence of the apparent benefit whieh would accrue to them if they had the privilege of making contributions into individ- ual retirement plans." Mr. Hall suggested one im- provement in the bills to ease the record keeping of farmers. Difficult for Farmers Because it is difficult for a typi- cal terrm family to allocate earn- ings between personal services and capital, the Farm Bureau spokesman suggested that any legislation should make "no dis- tinction" between them. He quali- fied this to apply only to capital "used in conjunction with the tax- payers personal labor arid man- agement." "We appear before you, in sup- port of the plan in general terms realizing that technical details remain to be worked out in order to adapt the idea to farmers," Mr. Hall said. . "Under these circumstances we cannot say to what extent farmers may avail themselves of such re- tirement plans. In supporting the ideat therefore, we appeal espe- cially for the extension of the privilege afforded others."

Named as principal defendants in the stockholders' suit were Young, chairman of the New York Central; Allan P. Kirby. Alle- ghany president; and Clint W. and John D. Murchison.

The complaint said further that Young and Kirby. to induce the caused Alleghany to lend 7 1 * million dollars to the Tex- ans and additionally to obtain bank loans for them in the same amount. Switched Decision JACKSONVILLE (JP) — Reor- ganization of the bankrupt Flori- da East Coast Railway, bounced around by federal courts and the Interstate Commerce Commission since 1931. took one of its strang- est twists when Miami asked the federal court for permission *to sue the railroad in state court. Miami wanted to file a condemna- tion suit to open four grade cross- ings across the railroad tracks. It was necessary for the city to get Federal permission because a judge now dead issued an order years ago saying the FEC could- not be sued during the reorganiza- tion proceedings.

By Farm Burfiau On Pension Plan Legislation to encourage' volun­

tary pension plans for farmers artd other self-employed persons Was recommended recently by the American Farm Bureau Federa­tion. Hugh F. Hall. AFBF legisla­tive assistant, told a House Ways and Means Couimittee hearing Farm Bureau favors the princi­ples of H.R. 9 and 10—the Jenkins-Keogh bills. .

The bills would make available to farmers and other self-em­ployed workers ta.\ treatment comparable to that pixnided in the pension plans now in effect for many businesses.

Both labor and management benefit from these plans.

Benefit Substantial "Since pension plans benefit

substantial numbers of employed postponment of income taxes on amounts paid into special plans approved by the Treasury Depart ment," Mr. Hall said, "it is proper that this advantage be ex­tended to other citizens." .

"The large variation of farmers' income is evidence of the apparent benefit whieh would accrue to them if they had the privilege of making contributions into individ­ual retirement plans."

Mr. Hall suggested one im­provement in the bills to ease the record keeping of farmers.

Difficult for Farmers Because it is difficult for a typi­

cal terrm family to allocate earn­ings between personal services and capital, the Farm Bureau spokesman suggested that any legislation should make "no dis­tinction" between them. He quali­fied this to apply only to capital "used in conjunction with the tax­payers personal labor arid man­agement."

"We appear before you, in sup­port of the plan in general terms realizing that technical details remain to be worked out in order to adapt the idea to farmers," Mr. Hall said. . "Under these circumstances we cannot say to what extent farmers may avail themselves of such re­tirement plans. In supporting the ideat therefore, we appeal espe­cially for the extension of the privilege afforded others."

The proposed settlement was in three parts: (1) an option, exer-

JACKSONVILLE (JP) — Reor­ganization of the bankrupt Flori­da East Coast Railway, bounced around by federal courts and the Interstate Commerce Commission since 1931. took one of its strang­est twists when Miami asked the federal court for permission *to sue the railroad in state court. Miami wanted to file a condemna­tion suit to open four grade cross­ings across the railroad tracks.

It was necessary for the city to get Federal permission because a judge now dead issued an order years ago saying the FEC could-not be sued during the reorganiza­tion proceedings.
