Meanwhile, talks between uV Catholic Cemeteries Association and a local of the United Steelworkers of America which resents 85 Hartford, area gravediggers, were due to resume to. day al the Holiday Inn in Mer den. The unburied bodies shouldn't create a health hazard excepi under certain conditions, said a spokesman for the funeral di- ectors.

All the bodies are em- and in sealed caskets stored in funeral homes, saici Jonald Kania ol Windsor Locks, president of Ihc 185- member funeral directors' group. "But, we coutd have a prob- em. especially if a body has leen damaged before beiLis irought to a funeral home," (ania said. The body of a drowning c- tim, for example, could be damaged if it was in water for a long lime, Kania said. He said lie intended lo con- act state Health Commissioner Jouglas Lloyd today to consider ordering the bodies lo be mried.

In addition io the public health risks, he said he would iscuss the mental anguish which he laid many families are suffering because iheir loved ones can't be buried. 5-Day Under Spec The Museum of Art, Science and Industry, Park avenue, wil sponsor five day-tours this fall he first slated for Sept. 17 io Newport, R.I., Elizabeth A.
