TUESDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1971 A I I I ers Zeroes In 39 OirChina, i 'x a WASHINGTON (AP) For the third time in less than a Secretary of State Wil- P. Rogers is going to New and a luxurious 'suite America's most "'prestigious hotels. "'But'instead of a vacation lounging in the Waldorf- Astoria Towers, Rogers sets today tihree-day visit see officials of at least 20 as he reaches out for of the Nixon adminis- Nation's most cherished diplo- "matic 'goals continued United Nations membership for Nationalist China and ah interim Middle East settlement. Important as these may be there is no firm evidence he is close'to although State Department officials are constantly maintaining a positive tone. His goal for the Middle East is reopening the Suez Canal as a temporary, agreement be-, tween Egypt and Israel that could serve as a first step toward a.permanent settlement.

Rogers' next Mideast move AFTER TAFT-HARTLEY Nation's Ports Face New Strike By Wire Services SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) 'Coast longshore" labor leader Harry Bridges said to-day his union may strike j.again when the 80-day Taft-. Hartley cooling-off -ends, and will seek an alliance with East'Coast dock workers to tie up all the nation's ship, j-. While an arbitrator pre- pared to rule on a dispute on the holdout docks in Los An- and Long 'Beach, Bridges wrote in his column in the union newspaper," The program of 'the strike strategy committee calls for resumption of the strike after the 80-day period if necessary. "During the period of the 80- day injunction we will estab-' lish meetings with the ILA (International Longshore- mens' 'Union) in -order "that joint strategy may be formulated and then implemented at times and places. "As international president Yintend to explore all the pos, sibilities of implementing an alliance between the ILWU ILA as unanimously approved by the last meeting of the inteniatonal executive 'board."

A hearing on making tlie restraining order a formal 80-day injunction under Taft- Hartiey is set in San Francisco for Friday. In Los Angeles, a shipping industry arbitrator said he would try to rule today on a jurisdictional dispute which has left Los Angeles and Long Beach the west's largest combined ports the only holdout to the federal court's back-to-work order. "Hopefully I will have my ruling in the hands of both labor and management'by mid- afternoon," said Arbitrator, George Love. He 'said both sides have agreed to abide by final ruling.

Holifield insists his com- produced a good bill of legal strength.

A key amendment is being 'recommended by 15 of the 23 "and two of the 16 Republicans on the committee. They seek to broaden the proposed cpnsumer-protec- agency's authority to represent consumers in proceedings of other federal agencies. Other proposed amendments limit the consumer powers. art of legislation," says Holifield in defense of his committee's work, "is the art obtaining the possible I think this. is a goodwill, a bill ft many ways." But Nader, saying he has support of Ways and Committee Chairman D.

Mills, is ur- the House to strengthen -tit measure and create "a bill for the vast number of millions of unrepresented American consumers who need representation before federal regulatory agencies. fact that this bill is reduced in terms of its effectiveness by about 90 per cent of the activities contained in or- ginal legislation is indicative of the political, interference here both'by the U.S.. Chamber of Commerce and by the White House." In an eleventh-hour appeal for support for "a single, strengthening backed by the 17 committee members, Rep. Benjamin S. Rosenthal, told colleagues: "Despite all the rhetoric that the committee-reported bill is adequate, the fact remains that the leading experts on' administrative law have concludedithat the CPA, under the languate of the committee bill, will be excluded from most agency matters of importance to consumers." Their amendment would let the new agency intervene in more so-called adjudicatory proceedings-- the agency process for formulating orders and conduct reviews of informal proceedings.

The committee-approved bill's major feature would be creation of a consumer-protection agency. In addition, the bill would give status of law to the White House's Office of Consumer Affairs, and would set up a 15-member consumer advisory council. The new agency would be empowered to promote and defend consumer interests, enter some cases before the courts, publish consumer information, ask other agencies to conduct tests, and make public consumers' complaints. comes Thursday when he sees Israeli Foreign Minister Abba 'Mahmoud Riad. 'Spokesmen Ebau for second time since the secretary opened his bilateral talks just over three weeks ago.

The Eban meeting assumed increased importance after Rogers met Thursday with Egyptian Foreign Minister Riad. Spokesmen for both leaders said the two had settled previous disagreements and narrowed differences, but there was no detailing of what differences. Perhaps most significant Was-an apparent negative Israeli attitude. The night before the Rogers- Riad meeting, Israeli Premier Golda Meir criticized Rogers' 'Oct. 4 speech to the General Assembly.

Mrs. Meir said the six so- called ideas put forth by Rogers as containing the germ of an interim settlement had encouraged to maintain an intransigent position. And as late as last Sunday, President Anwar Sadat said as he left to visit Moscow tliat the latest U.S. effort was Israel all she 'Through the vague statements.

According to these diplomatic, sources, such, tactics could easily have a' counter-productive result and thus may mean the United States has reached a near-desperate state. Whatever Rogers' state of mind, his energy appears boundless.

When he finishes his last meeting Thursday, he will have seen, officials from at least 90 nations since opening his talks last month, a U.N. record. Meanwhile, it's expected Dr. Henry A. Kissinger will be in Peking by the weekend, making concrete, arrangements for President Nixon's forthcoming mainland visit.

Cb GIs In Vietnam Signing Petition Asking War's End SAIGON-(UPI) A group of American servicemen-sta- tioned'in Vietnam are-collect-' ing signatures from GIs on a 'petition to Congress asking for "an immediate cessation of all hostilities in-Southeast Asia," an organizer said today. The organizers, the Vietnam Veterans Against the War, said'they had hundred" names.

They said that one organizer circulating the, petitions was arrested for four hours by U.S. Air Force police but was released. "This was believed to be the first time" such a campaign has been conducted among troops in Vietnam by their fellow, servicemen. The-Ameri- ian press last summer reported such a'petition but investigation in Saigon failed to produce any signers still in Vietnam. James Mohler, '24, a U.S." Navy enlisted man from Cuyahoga Falls, said more than 400 servicemen from all branches have signed the petition and he believes the final response will be higher than his original goal of 2,000 names.

Mohler said he believed the signers are within their rights as defined in Title 10, Section the United States Code which says no person may restrict members of the armed forces' from communication with a member of Congress "unless the communication is unlawful or violates regulation necessary to the security of the United States." Mohler said the petitions would be sent to the parent Vietnam Veterans Against the War organization in New York, which plans to present them to Congress just before the Christmas recess. "It may change a few Congressmen's minds," he said. Motiler said he started the campaign two weeks ago with another navy enlisted man, James Carlson, 22. of Los An- Carlson was arrested by U.S. Air Force police two days ago while passing out the petitions at Saigon's Tan Son Nhut Air Force Base.

'He was re- leased to his commanding offi-- cer after being detained for four hours, Henry Aaronson, a member of the Lawyers-Military Defense Committee said. The attorney said Carlson was told he was held for "distributing unlawful petitions" and that the petitions'Carlson, was carrying at the time, containing more than 60 names, were not returned to 'Carlson when the sailor was released. Reluctant GIs, Others Withdrawn SAIGON (AP) The five U.S. soldiers who balked at going'on a night ambush patrol last weekend were withdrawn today from Fire Base Pace along with the rest of their 100-man company. Maj.

Gen. Jack J. Wagstaff, commander of U.S. forces in the 3rd Military Region, said he had replaced the company at the artillery-base on the Cambodian border "because of all this flak, the possible harm it could do to company morale and in line with nor- mil rotation policy." Wagstaff said no disciplinary action would be taken against the five reluctant GIs Ijecause "nothing was violated." "There was never any confrontation, never any refusal," fce general said. "There was never an opportunity.

The only refusal, if you want to call it that they told a newsman they weren't going logo." The five men were members of Bravo Company, 1st Battalion," 12th Cavalry, 3rd Brigade, 1st Cavalry Division. Wagstaff said shortly after the order was given for the night ambush patrol Saturday, the five men were preparing their equipment for the mission when an unidentified reporter came into their bunker. "In the course of this conversation the men said they were scheduled for a patrol but that they were not going," Wagstaff continued. "That evening, as the platoon was about to form up for the patrol, the liaison officer from an adjacent South Vietnamese unit came to Fire Support Base Pace to coordinate operations for the evening. "It was discovered at that time-that 'a South Vietnamese operation was scheduled for about the same area as the Bravo Company' ambush patrol and was already in position." Wagstaff said the base commander decided then to cancel the U.S.

ambiiih. But when the commander of Bravo Company heard about the incident, 1 he became angry and formed up a larger patrol which included the five reluctant men for an operation in the same area the next day.

U.S. Start SafetyTalk MOSCOW (UPT) United States and the Union today began talks aimed at reducing still further the possibility of -accidental military hostilities through a gentlemen's agreement on "incidents at sea." John W. Warner, U.S.

under-secretary of the Navy, and Vice Adm. Harry Harty Jr. headed a 10-man U.S. delegation at the first day of discussions with a Soviet delegation. Fleet Adm.

Vladimir A. Kasatonov led-the Soviet delegation. A few weeks ago, the two nations signed an agreement designed to eliminate the possibility of nuclear war arising out of isolated nuclear accidents. Diplomatic sources said the talks aim to establish agreement on how far the two su- pernavies may go in snooping on each other at sea, although Warner and other U.S. spokesmen to confirm that interpretation.

"We are not looking forward to a formal agreement," Warner, told newsmen at a briefing before his first full- dress negotiating session. "It's to be an understanding. is strictly a navy-to-navy discussion. "The factual subjects to be discussed and the'proposals to be advanced are matters which will be treated, fidentially," he said. "Generally, the problems are those involving, safety, the safety of naval units operating- within the proximity of one another on the high seas." Diplomatic sources said near-accidents and the possibility of acciden- tal skirmishes have increased in recent years as the navy has spilled 'out into the world's oceans to challenge the U.S.

Navy for supremacy.
