Saturday. Canadian Dock Strike MONTREAL, QUE. UP) Approximately 3,800 long shoremen in three St. Lawrence River ports walked off the job Friday, a step expect ed to have an immediate crip pling effect on Canada's efforts to move wheat and flour purchased recently by Rus sia. The strike is intended to enforce demands for higher pay.

Affected are the ports at Quebec, Trols-Rivieres and Montreal. The stevedores are paid a basic $2.35 an hour and are demanding an increase of 35 cents plus 10 cents In fringe benefits. Negotiations Negotiations between the International Longshoremen's Association and the Shipping Federation of Canada, with Montreal Judge Rene Lippe as mediator, were to resume during the day. One source said progress made Thursday night was far too slow to raise hopes of getting the men back on the docks quickly. A reliable informant in Ottawa said the government would not intervene directly in the dispute yet, preferring to risk some disruption in shipping rather than upset collective bargaining.

Loss Shipping circles said the loss of business other than the wheat would be much more serious. The ports handle an' average of about 75 ships a day during the busy fall season. The liner Empress of Britain left Quebec about midnight, but the strike caught the liners Homeric and Carin-thia in the harbor. Drops Advanced Weather Satellite WASHINGTON, D. C.

UP) The Weather Bureau Friday dropped its plans for a Nimbus advanced meteorological satellite. Nimbus was to have succeeded the experimental Tiros satellites as the first truly operational weather satellite system. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has spent about $60 million on the Nimbus program.

But the government an nounced in a decree that "special exception" would be made for landowners who have maintained exceptional production. Prime Minister Fidel Castro constantly has been trying to squeeze more production out of poorly run farms. The government already has taken over about 7.5 mil lion acres. The new decree would bring it another four million acres. This would leave 5.9 million acres in pri vata hand MADISON, WIS.

CW Wis consin had a new law Friday because a man forgot an old adage: Never, underestimate tne power or a woman. Nearly a year ago, Mrs. John Melsha, a 35 year old usewif from New Berlin, in suburban Milwaukee, expressed interest in buy ing a used car. REYNOLDS She took the car for a trial spin and then complained about the tires. "I had someone examine the tires and learned they were old, bald tires, and grooves had been put in without adding new rubber to build up the tire," she recalled.

"I contended this made tires too weak and made them dangerous to use." Mrs. Melsha's complaints to the used car dealer were useless. He told her that there was nothing that could be done about regrooving of tires. A Challenge The dealer's statement served only as a challenge to the mother of two. "I told him we'd see about that," she said.

After months of work, Mrs. Melsha's fight ended Thursday, when Gov. John Reynolds signed into law a bill prohibiting the regrooving of worn tires in Wisconsin. The governor noted that the law was a personal triumph for Mrs. Melsha.

The housewife had taken her battle to her New Berlin Women's Club. Then she began enlisting the aid of other women's clubs and safety organizations throughout the state. She even returned to school to brush up on her typing, realizing that many letters would have to be written. During her crusade, Mrs. Melsha and her husband, who works for an electrical contractor, spent weeks visiting tire shops in the Milwaukee area.

She said the amount of business they found in regrooving tires only spurred her drive. She convinced her district's assemblyman, Vincent Matthews of Waukesha, to introduce a bill. Then she made two trips to the Capitol in Madison to testify before legislative committees. She had plenty of support in women's groups, safety groups and the Wisconsin unit of the American Automobile Association. No Compromise At one hearing, a taxi firm opposed the bill.

At another, a Milwaukee area tire firm attempted to rea.ch a compromise. "They wanted to amend the bill so that regrooved tires could be used if labeled," Mrs. Melsha said. "Then I really fumed. Just what good would that be to have a horrible accident and then learn that bald and regrooved tires had been on the car?" Notified of the governor's action in signing the anti-re-grooving bill, Mrs.

Melsha said: "What a thrill! What a night I'm going to have!" Then she headed for the Women's Club to report. Two-Year High In Carloadings Leased Wire From Dow Jones WASHINGTON, D. C. Loadings of rail freight cars in the week ended Sept, 28 were the highest in two years, the Association of American Railroads reported Friday.

See Soft Jab By Kennedy In Steel Rise New York Times News Service WASHINGTON, D. C.

Kennedy administration offi- rials expressed unhappiness Thursday over the new round of steel price increases, but they said they did not expect President Kennedy to publicly criticize the price rise in any but the mildest way. Mr. Kennedy will probably take advantage of the first opportunity to make a public statement encouraging all businessmen to think about the national interest before raising prices, the officials said. They said they would expect him to focus on the need to avoid price increases that would make American goods less saleable in world markets. They said they do not expect him to warn of any danger of an inflationary spiral in this country, because his top economic advisers feel there is no such danger at present.

The latest round of steel-price increases thus will create no open conflict between the administration and the business community as did the across-the-board steel increase of April, 1962. Bronx Zoo Plans Haven for Rare Animals NEW YORK, N. Y. CP) There's now a future in the lives of gnus, short-necked giraffes, mountain gorillas and other rare animals threatened with extinction. The Bronx Zoo is preparing a survival center for them.

Fairfield Osborn, president of the New York Zoological Society, said Thursday that the project called the World Wildlife Survival Center is expected to be ready by next year. He said the farm-in-the-zoo will be replaced by the center, which will occupy 22 acres bounded by the Bronx River Parkway and the Bronx River, The zoo farm animals will be sold, Osborn said. He said the main job of the new project "is to try to meet the survival crisis of these creatures in their own envir onment." The secondary job, he said, is "to try to provide a reservoir for the endangered species." 2 Die in Fire SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH UP) Two men were killed and at least four other per sons were injured when fire of undetermined origin raced through the third floor of the New Windsor Hotel early Friday. Backs Tax Bill WASHINGTON, D. C.

UP) The National Farmers Union has urged Senate passage of the Kennedy administration's tax bill. 4 Grain Trade Higher CHICAGO, ILL. UP) Increased foreign demand for wheat and a slightly bullish crop report on soybeans and corn strengthened the grain futures market Friday. Soybeans advanced on a private estimate that placed the bean crop at 727,247,000 bushels as of Oct 1. This is about 1 million bushels under the Department of Agriculture's September forecast of 728 million bushels.

A new government estimate is due Oct. 10. The private estimate, compiled by Bache estimated corn production at 3,934,000,000 bushels. This is about 4 million bushels under the government's September forecast of 3,938,000,000. At the close wheat was 3V2 cents a bushel higher to cent lower; corn was V2 to 1 Vi cents higher; oats cent higher to 14 cent lower; rye 2 to 3 cents a bushel higher; and soybeans were 34 to 5Y2 cents higher.

Uncertainty over possible sales of wheat to Russia remain a principal factor in day-to-day trading with the market highly nervous and erratic much of the time. Congressional opinion over a wheat-to-Russia deal ap pears to be divided and President Kennedy has layed a decision on whether to sell grain to the Soviets, if they ask for it, until next week. While there has been much talk about selling U. S. grain to Russia to help ease a crop shortage in the Soviet Union, the Reds have not made a formal offer to buy from this country.

Earlier this week, Premier Khrushchev hinted Russia might be able to get along without U. S. wheat and a member of a Russian trade delegation was quoted as say ing it was unlikely that Rus sia would purchase wheat from the United States this year. On the other hand, trade sources reported that at least two U. S.

exporting firms have filed applications with the Department of Commerce for licenses to export wheat, flour and other commodities to Russia should a favorable decision be announced.

of Toledo, Ohio; Oren Corp. of Mun-cie, and Pal-O-Pak Insulation Co. of Hartland, Wis.

Extends Ban On Sale of Securities Federal District Judge Roy Stephenson extended Friday the temporary order restraining the Central American Land and Cattle Co.

of Nicara gua from selling securities in Iowa and other states. Judge Stephenson last month issued a temporary restraining order. He extended the order Friday when no one appeared at a scheduled hearing to represent the land company. Judge Stephenson said attorneys for the U. S.

Securities and Ex change Commission told him they are drafting a request for a permanent injunction to stop the company from selling securities in the United States. Robert Walters, superintendent of securities of the Iowa Insurance Commission, said representatives of the company have been selling securities in southern Iowa, especially in the Creston area. He said the representatives have been telling Iowans that they have large land holdings in Nicaragua on which they plant and raise farm crops and graze livestock. Jungle Walters said the land has not been cleared and actually is a jungle. State officials figure that the company had taken in about $50,000 at the time of the first injunction but did not know how much was from Iowans.

At the state's request, a temporary injunction prohibiting the company from doing business in Iowa was issued in Polk County District Court the same day the original restraining order was issued in Federal Court here. Not Registered The District Court injunction was requested, state officials said, because the company had not been registered to sell securities in Iowa. The original Investigation of the firm stemmed from an inquiry by the Creston Chamber of Commerce about the reliability of the firm. Innocent Plea In Fraud Case COUNCIL BLUFFS, IA. UP) Ernest Keith Ellison, 36, formerly of Red Oak, pleaded innocent to a 35-count indictment of mail fraud Thursday.

Twomey, 89, died Thursday. City Tells Fluoride's 7-Year Feat CLEVELAND, OHIO UP) There has been a dramatic improvement in the number of Cleveland school children with good teeth since Cleveland started adding fluorides to its water in 1956, a study showed Friday. Dr. Thomas F. Healy, supervisor of mouth hygiene for the schools, told the Academy of Medicine the percentage of kindergarten pupils with perfect teeth increased from 27.9 per cent in 1955-1956 to 59.3 per cent in the 1962-63 school year.

Dr. Healy said he believes this is the first such study in a major city. 80,000 Some 80,000 kindergarten pupils were examined. Dr. Healy pointed out that only primary teeth, rather than permanent teeth, were involved.

He said studies involving older children also are being conducted. He noted that the study goes back to the year before fluoridation and that the latest subjects of study had been exposed to fluorides "from the time of conception." Dr. Healy said it appeared that where the child's diet was inadequate, fluoridation had little effect "They have to have the minerals or fluoridation is a waste of time," he said. "They must have access to the proper foods." Fewer Defects At the same time that the percentage of children with perfect teeth increased, there was a decrease in the average number of defective teeth and the number of teeth lost. Defective teeth in kindergarten averaged 3.4 per pupil in 1955-56, and now is 1.3.

The tooth loss average, .29 in 1955-56, now is .07. The doctor indicated the most dramatic improvements were made in schools in low-income areas. At a school in which there were no 1955-56 kindergarteners with perfect teeth, 35.3 per cent had perfect teeth last year. In another school the figure jumped from 5.2 per cent to 56.7. The gains were not so dramatic in the higher-income areas, Dr.

Healy said, but in all areas there was improvement. Gets Divorce OMAHA, NEB. UP) Vickie Trickett, 23, actress from Omaha, was granted a divorce here Thursday from her husband of three years, Richard V. Herre, and was given custody of their year-old daughtar. L.V nr ir--i 1 i io.
