Oil Strike Spread May Affect Korea
By UNITED PRESS
The crippling oil strike today threatened to spread to California the oil depot for troops in Korea—while government and steel industry attorneys made ready for an historic session with the U. S. Supreme court.
The CIO Oil Workers International union paved the way for a walkout at the Shell Oil company chemical plant at Pittsburg, Calif. when it presented the company with a formal contract termination notice yesterday.
The contract termination becomes effective Saturday and a union official admitted that a strike vote among the plant's 263 workers had been taken. The union would not say that it definitely planned to strike.
The government prohibited the sale of aviation gasoline to resellers or civilian consumers who have more than a three-day supply on hand in what Interior Secretary Oscar Chapman called an "effort to conserve scarce supplies of gasoline."
In the steel dispute, lawyers for both sides will argue the issue of "inherent" presidential powers
Committee OK's McGranery Post
Washington — (U.P.) The senate judiciary committee today approved, on an 8 to 4 vote, the nomination of Federal Judge James P. McGranery to be attorney general.

Chairman Pat McCarran (D-Nev.) declined to say which members voted against McGranary's confirmation, but it was understood that, besides Ferguson, they were Senators William E. Jenner (Ind.), Robert C. Hendrickson (N.J.), and Arthur V. Watkins (Utah), all Republicans. McCarran said he has set no time for asking a senate vote by.

The bill provides for 80-day injunctions against strikes which would cause national emergencies and court operation of both industry and union after the injunctions run out.
Pusan, Korea—(U.P.)-Gen. James A. Van Fleet said tonight the Communist captors of Brig. Francis T. Dodd have started quarreling among themselves over what their prisoner, still unharmed, is worth to the United Nations.
Reds Argue General's Value
Gen. Van Fleet said that force will be used at an "early date" to free the Koje Island prison camp commander if the Communists do not release him. Gen. Dodd, seized on Wednesday by leaders of the 6,000 prisoners, reported by telephone that he was not harmed and apparently was in no danger.
Gen. Van Fleet said he was confident Gen. Dodd would not be harmed during any rescue attempt. His optimism, he said, was based on the telephone messages from Dodd himself.
