Officials Trying To Avoid Strike LOS ANGELES (JI A high- ranking official of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service arrives today to take charge of negotiations in a last-ditch move to prevent a strike in Southern California's aircraft and missile industry. At the same time union officials meet with Secretary of Defense McElroy and Labor Secretary Mitchell to discuss how a strike can be avoided Wednesday when old contracts expire.

Nearly 50,000 members of the International Assnr" of Machinists and the United Auto Workers held mass meetings in Los Angeles and San Diego areas. They overwhelmingly backed their negotiators in rejecting company offers as unsatisfactory. This set the stage for a new round of bargaining under the direction of Arthur C. Viat, San Francisco, regional director of Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. The offers for new contracts were from Douglas Aircraft North American Aviation, and Convair.

They were basically the same, calling for hourly wage boosts ranging from 2 to 16 cents, "with a 3 per cent increase next year. Current basic wage rates range from $1.65 to S2.76 an hour. Lockheed Aircraft Corp. and IAM District Lodge 727 continue to bargain in a move to narrow the gap between the company's offer and the union demand for a 28-cent-an-hour package deal.

Hurley Speaker Says 'Loyalty Means Liberty' "Loyalty means liberty and liberty in this great land is the grandest thing you, will ever know," declared James Delbesio Jr. of Mellen in giving one of the principal speeches of the Loyalty Day program presented Saturday evening at Hurley.

Delbesio and George Sullivan of Gile, Iron County district attorney, were the featured speakers on the program which was preceded by a parade. A large crowd lined the streets to watch the parade, but only a small number braved a cold wind to listen to the program which was presented on Silver St. in front of the VFW Memorial Hall. Other speakers on the program included Mayor Sam Giovanoni of Hurley, who commended the Iron County VFW Post and Auxiliary, which sponsored the program, for the work they are doing; the Rev. Edward M.

Ketcham of the Hurley Church, who gave the invocation and benediction, and Oliver Risku of the VFW Post, who acted as master of ceremonies and expressed the VFW's thanks to all persons and who participated in the parade and program. The parade featured the playing and marching of the Iron County VFW Junior Drum and Bugle Corps' A and units and the Ironwood High School band. Other units in the a a included color bearers of various VFW posts and auxiliaries, members of the Hurley Fire Department, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts of Hurley and Montreal, Bessemer VFW baton corps, the Range Girl Scout cookie queen. Hurley Youth Council float, fun cars of the Iron County VFW and Hurley American Legion and the Gogebic Indianhead Saddle Club. Immediately after the parade the Iron County VFW Junior Drum and Bugle Corps' A unit put on an exhibition in front of the speaker's stand on Silver St.

Delbesio reviewed the history of the Loyalty observance which was originated by the VFW to combat the traditional May Day celebrations of Communists. He noted that the a Day program started in New York and gradually spread throughout the country until now 10,000 VFW posts and auxiliaries sponsor Loyalty programs each year. In explaining what Loyalty Day means, Delbesio said, "it means that one day of the year we can, and should, reaffirm our trust and loyalty to this great land of ours. We should remember that all the things we have freedom of speech and religion, our everyday living were not just Things that happened. The men who gave us our first constitution fought for those rights and throughout the years whenever our liberty has been threatened men and women have gone forth to help preserve that heritage which is rich in tradition and in blood and anguish of countless millions." Delbesio compared life in the United States to that in Russia and said, "there are those who would try to convince us that our way ol life is all wrong.

when they tell you how wrong we are just shout from the house tops that our flag, the red, white and blue that means so much to oppressed nations, has in it something that no one, yes no one, can take away from, us." He said the red in the flag stands for the "hardiness and courage of all those who gave their life's blood" in various battles, that the white means purity and innocence and that the blue field is symbolic of vigilance and justice. Sullivan, who followed Delbesio, said Americans should be reminded at intervals, such as on Loyaltj Day," that totalitarian nations "are very strong." He noted the advantages of the American form of government anc said, "we must drive home to citizens and youth that our form government is superior to any form of government on earth." Sullivan also declared that it should be emphasized that "when we work together in a united effort there is no form of dictatorship thai can match us in any field." Persons on the platform whc were introduced by Risku includec James Lewallen, commander of the Iron County VFW Post; Mrs. Oliver Risku, president of the Iron County VFW Auxiliary; Murray White- rabbit of Ashland, 10th Distrid VFW commander, and Louis Leoni of Gile, chairman of the Iron County Board of Supervisors.

(Daily Globe Photo) Bessemer Marks 'Michigan Week' BESSEMER Observance of "Spiritual Foundations Day" in the churches of the city, yesterday, opened the Michigan Week program, which is marked by numerous scheduled events to be held during the week, in' recognition of the rich heritage left by the founding pioneers, and the part Michigan has played in the history of this nation.

From the pulpits of the various churches, pastors, yesterday, expressed gratitude for the spiritual foundations laid by the pioneers of-the community, and prayed that those foundations may be preserved and strengthened. In several churches the histories of the parish were reviewed. It.is significant that all except one, of the parishes existing here today, were founded and firmly established within four years, after the territory was opened for settlement by the discovery of iron ore in 1884. By 1885, this community had a population of about 5,000. It is significant that the founding of churches went hand in hand with the industrial and commercial development of the pioneer community.

The deep religious faith inherited from generations of devout peoples, permeated the atmosphere charged with the materialistic struggle of the pioneers for prosperity, and hewing out of the wilderness, homes and support for their families. The basic principle of Freedom. of Religion, granted by the Bill of Rights and the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, was expressed as evidenced by the fact that six parishes developed almost simultaneously, each on foundations so strong, that they are in existence today. Today the community is observing Mayor Exchange Day, established for the purpose of helping Michigan communities to become better acquainted with each other. Mayor and Mrs.

Leonard Lahti, of Hancock, are the guests of honor, in various activities climaxed by a public banquet program at 6:30 at the A i a Legion club rooms. In the schools, students are studying Michigan history and in extra curricular events, the themes designated for the various days are being observed. Events scheduled for Tuesday, designated Michigan Hospitality Day, are: Meeting of the City Conncil at 7 p.m. with a major item of business involving improvement of Sophie Street and sidewalks, for the welfare of the community.

Twenty-one new seats were at stake in Sunday's nationwide election. There is no chance the one- limc rebcl artv can control the Parliament. IMt hundred years ago this week Abraham Lincoln confronted a witness in the Cass County Circuit Court with an almanac. With that and a convincing summation, he won an acquittal for a family friend accused of murder. Since then the case has become famous as the "almanac trial." Lincoln, running for the Republican nomination for the U.

S. Senate, took time off from his campaign to defend William Armstrong May 5 and 6, 1858. He was nominated but lost the election. Armstrong, the son of Lincoln's long-time friend of the New Salem days, Jack a A a with the murder of James P. Metzker, a farmer who lived near Metzker Petersburg, and Armstrong turned to Lincoln.

He wrote ho would help "to requite in a small degree the favors I received at your hand." The trial was held in Beardstown in the courthouse which still stands. Townspeople are celebrating the centennial of the trial with re-enactments Monday and Tuesday. A witness named Allen claimed he saw Armstrong strike Metzker on the head with a sling shot-a piece of metal attached to a leather thong. When Lincoln cross examined him, Allen said it was about 11 o'clock at- night when the attack occured, but admitted he was about 150 feet from the combatants. "The moon was very bright, almost like day," he said.

Bradley told Congress today the present military organization has made it possible for one service to block the flow of information or requests between the Defense Department and field commanders.

Bradley testified before ''the House, Armed Services Committee in support of President Elsenhow- er's defense reorganization proposals. These include changes which Eisenhower said are necessary to let orders go from the defense secretary and Joint Chiefs of Staff direct to the commanders of unified forces in the field, without passing through the hands of the secretary of the Army, Navy or Air Force. Such secretaries have acted as executive agents of the Defense Department in the chain of command. Bradley, a five-star general who commanded the 12th Army Coras in World War and later served 'as Army chief of staff and first chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the committee: "I understand that in tiie past there have been occasions where information or suggestions from a unified commander were retained by the executive agent without the joint chiefs of staff being aware of the request or the information sent in by the unified commander. "There have also been occasions where orders were transmitted to unified commanders from above without the executive agent being informed.

This also leads to confusion." Bradley spoke strongly for mora authority for the secretary of defense. When asked how any law could give the "secretary more power than the "direction, authority and control" specified in the present statute, Bradley said he thinks Congress should repeal the existing provision that the Army, Navy and Air Force must be separately administered. Bradley told the committee sees no danger, with Congress watching the operations of the Defense Department, that any one of the services could be eliminated or that an all-powerful general staff could grow up.
