A few rewrite men in the Mirror news room tore up the stories on which they had been working when they heard the news. Turner Catledge, managing editor of the Times, said he was "stunned.

"I don't know just exactly what we're going to do now," he said. "We had been all set to put out a paper tonight. Most of the staff has been waiting across the street to come in just as soon as the picket lines were removed." The Times had planned an 80- page edition for today. Ajew of The photoengraverrrarj the picket line in front of the Times Building had predicted rejection and cheered hen the news came. There was open bitterness among many memoers oi otner newspaper unions.

One noted that one of the photoengravers on the picket line was taking home $127 weekly in unemployment compen sation and union strike benefits, A spokesman for the News the paper with the largest circulation in the nation expressed dismay that preparations for editions this morning had been in vain. Reaction among New Yorkers ranged from mild annoyance to disgust. LU Keeps N.Y. Strike On Continued frflm Page 1 before voting, almost 20,000 idle newspaper employes would be back to work today. At the Daily News about 50 editorial employes "as many as on a regular working day" watched a television set for word of the vote.

When the news flashed on the screen they stared at one another, then silently left the building. Murray Weiss, city editor of the Herald Tribune, summed up the reaction of his staff: "Sick." Outside newspaper plants, hundreds of workers who had waited for the picket lines to be withdrawn cursed or laughed bitterly and drifted away. A demandnor 15 minutes less working time per day prompted this new and frustrating re versal in the city's longest and most painful newspaper dispute. They rejected because" they were dissatisfied with the 35- hour week clause," said Frank McGowan, president of photo- engravers Local "The clause calls for a reduction to 35 hours (per week, from hours) only on the overnight shift. The men want all shifts reduced." McGowan, who predicted early yesterday that his men would ratify the pact, said, "Maybe when we walk the lines again they might change their attitude." F.

M. Flynn, publisher of the Daily News, said: "To me it is a damned shame that the. city must be without newspapers for a further period after all other unions have agreed to the settlement recommended by Mayor (Robert) Wagner."

Cleveland Strike Goes Into 119th Day CLEVELAND WV-The print ers union and publishers of Cleveland's two daily news'oa pers were reported $5 apart in bargaining over a new contract as the city's- marathon ngws-paper strike entered its 119th day today. Mayor Ralph S. Locher, who stepped into the negotiations yesterday, spelled out the differences after a fruitless, four-hour session at city hall last night. Representatives of the Plain Dealer and the Cleveland Press and News have offered a package increase, estimated at $10.95 per week per man in a two-year contract, said Mayor Locher after reviewing positions of both sides.

Disgusted NEW YORK (AP)-The 20,000 men and women wno stall tne city's eight blacked out dailies were in the position today of a jilted bride. They were shocked and sad and so were millions of readers who had been waiting 110 days to eat the wedding cake. The editors, reporters, rewrite men, copy readers, stereotypers, printers, deliverers, mailers and others representing all the mani fold skills required by a metropolitan newspaper had been ready all day Wednesday to get back to work after more than three months of idleness sparked by a strike of printers Dec. 8 and followed by strikes of three other unions. Four of the papers had been struck and the other five had closed voluntarily in a show of unity.

One of those, the Post, resumed publication March 4. Wednesday night, all that appeared to be history. The printers had settled and ratified a new contract. So had two other unions. Finally, negotiators for the 320-man photoengravers union accept ed a new contract and predicted it would be ratified by the photo-engravers' rank and file.

It was expected by everyone so much so that the staffs of the four morning papers the Times, Herald Tribune, News and Mirror had begun work on today's editions. Then the engravers turned the contract down 191, votes to 111. "Those guys are crazy," said a photographer waiting outside the Herald Tribune building for the call to go back to work. "I'm going to go get something to eat," said a woman reporter waiting outside the Times building. "Then I'm going to get something to drink a whole lot of drinks and try to forget this."

The United States had protested to Moscow that on March 15 two Soviet reconnaissance planes penetrated 30 miles into American airspace over Alaska. The Soviets denied it. They said in a reply uiat ineir- pianes naa never come closer to Alaska than 217 miles. The reply is unsatisfactory. Lincoln White, the State Department's spokesman, told a newt conference.

It's not possible to legislate morality. It's not pos sible to. legislate bigotry and hatred out of the hearts and minds of men." REVERSE EFFECT James Goforth of the California State Chamber of Commerce, warned that passage of the Rumford bill would "depress the home building industry, worsen the home shortage situation and thus have a reverse effect" to that desired by its sponsors.

MOSK WARNS Citing the increase in Negro population in California, Atty. Gen. Stanley Mosk told the committee The Los Angeles ghetto is becoming bigger and denser and the same is true in other California communities. The pressures in these ghet tos is building up. Each month thousands more are i packed in substandard housing, adding to the burdens of health authorities, police officials and school authorities.

Before this pressure becomes so strong it breaks down exist ing barriers with explosive force, I hope this state will act to end de factor segregation." Tarea Hall Pittman, regiona secretary of the National 'Asso ciation for the Advancement Colored People, charged that racial discrimination is limiting non-white residency in Califor nia and is jeopardizing the state orderly residential growth and development. CHARGE ASKED Presenting a legal analysis of the bill, Nathaniel Colley, counsel for the NAACP, suggested an amendment which he said would protect property owners from double civil jeopardy, but no action was taken. Rumford explained later that somewhat similar language in the Berkeley ordinance is under attack on the grounds that it might actually result in denial of due process of law. As lead-off witness for the opposition, Robert D. Weinmann, executive director of the Citizens League for Individual Freedom, declared that the issue is not discrimination but depriva- SHOOT-AND SHOW! ORDER Dial iwft'il, Outfit.
