World-Wide Wire Bus Strike Becomes Big Economic Drain
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Negotiations disintegrated today in New York's subway and bus strike which Mayor John V. Lind-say angrily declared was now a battle between the people and "forces bent on laying siege to the city."
He vowed to end the walkout and "to serve the people and to free them from the hold the collection of power brokers have had over our city."
With the strike's cost in wage and business losses now above $1 billion, the city's economy was reported in the worst straits since the days of the depression of the 1930s. And the national economy felt repercussions.
Christians will pray together for unity in Danforth Chapel for one week beginning next Monday.

Christians Pray for Unity
Roman Catholic Church helped to prepare the booklet to be used by millions of Christians during the Week of Prayer.
ROMAN CATHOLICS will join Protestants, Anglicans and Orthodox in the prayer.
At KU, students and chapians will gather daily at 4:30 p.m. all week as a united congregation in Danforth Chapel. Members of the Lawrence community will be asked to participate in their own churches and on the Hill.
The purpose is to pray for the unity of Christians, for the ecumenical groups, for individual groups, and for justice and peace throughout the world.
Several campus groups are participating. They are the Roger Williams Fellowship, the United Campus Christian Fellowship, the Lutheran Students' Association, the University Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod), the KU-Y, Canterbury Association, and Wesley Foundation.
Ask Civil Rights Probe
HATTIESBURG, Miss.—(UPI)—President Johnson Monday asked that the full resources of the Justice Department be thrown into the investigation of the nightrider firebombing slaying of a prominent Negro merchant and civil rights backer.
The death of Vernon Dahmer, 58, late Monday from fatal burns set off a demonstration by 300 angry Negroes who marched on the courthouse and demanded action against his attackers.
Atty. Gen. Nicholas Katzenbach said the President "expressed to me his deep concern over the tragedy," and asked the full resources of the Justice Department be employed in the investigation.
Red Troops in Viet Nam
SAIGON—(UPI)American troops operating along the Cambodian border have uncovered evidence that a Communist North Vietnamese antiaircraft battalion has infiltrated the South, a military spokesman disclosed today. It was the first such evidence of the war.
The spokesman said the Communist force known as the H-13 antiaircraft unit, was equipped with 18 heavy guns capable of shooting down fighter planes and jet bombers. The guns also are effective against troop-carrying helicopters.
The spokesman said the information on the antiaircraft battalion came from three North Vietnamese regulars captured during "Operation Matador" in the Central Highlands west of Pleiku near the Cambodian border.
A multi-battalion force from the U.S. Army's 1st Air Cavalry Division is involved in the sweep.
