Findings Not Binding The three-member board made its report to President Dwight D. Eisenhower who created it last Dec. 22 after the brotherhood, rep resenting mostly road brakemen, and yard conductors and brake men, and 175 class No. 1 railroads failed to settle disputes over pay and rules. The board's findings are not binding on the parties. But un der the Railway Labor Act there can be no strike or other changes in working conditions for 30 days. Demands Not Fulfilled The board's recommendations are less than the union demanded, and are essentially what the car riers proposed. The roads agreed to withdraw three substantial de mands for revision Of rules in con sideration for adoption of the pat tern settlement. The principal un ion demand was a wage increase of $3 a day starting immediately. At the end of three years the board's roposal would amount to a raise of $2.12 a day for an eight hour day. Million Clipped Ike's Budget $5OO From WASHINGTON, March 15 (JP)—The House Appropria tions Committee made its biggest budget cut of the year today, lopping $516,993,000 from funds requested by President Dwight D. Eisenhower for 18 independent federal agencies. The $5,406,201,700 recommended by the committee was about 8.7 per cent less than the President asked for the year starting July 1. The cut was the biggest made by the committee in four annual appropriation bills it has considered tis year. Some commt tee members, grumbled privately that the cut wasn't deep enpugh and there were indications that the House might be asked to slash further when -it considers the bill next week. - - Recommendations Approved To date, the House has followed the committee'sl money recom mendations to the dollar, approv-, ing a total of 556 million dollars, in deductions from over-all re quests for $10,30 ,000,000 in three other bills. The big cuts in oday's bill were in funds request d for the Veter "am Adrninistrati n, the Civil De fense Adminis tion and the General Services Administration. Part in Compensations Howerever, $149,500,000 of the reduction in VA funds was in the veterans compensation and pen sions budget. Since these pay ments are a matter of law, Con gress would be required to fur nish more money', later if needed. The VA • request for a larger amount was based on estimates which could vary. The committee out ' change the approved with- President's re- THE DAILY today: 1. U.N. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold announced post ponement of his scheduled trip to morrow to Egypt. 2. Israeli Foreign Minister Gol da Meir announced she was flying from Tel Aviv to Waahington to night for State Department talks. 3. Maj. Gen. Mohammed Has san Abdel Latif, Egypt's new chief of the Gaza Strip, declared everything there was going "back to normal, just as it was before the Israeli aggression." Any one of these three develop ments was enough to cause con cern. Taken together they added up to potential calamity for U.S.- UN efforts to pacify the area and get on with the business of eras ing poverty, disease and ignor ance. The State Department press of ficer, Lincoln White, speaking to a news conference before any one of these developments became known, obviously was looking ahead to the next step in seeking an Arab-Israel settlement. He reported the department had called in representatives of five European governments—all of them maritime powers— for a "global review of recent develop ments." This included Middle East prob lems, particularly reopening of the Suez Canal, he indicated. It was learned_that the United States held the conference with envoys of Britain, France, Italy, Norway and the Netherlands to check signals on U.S. policy on the eve of Hammarskjold's sched uled visit to Cairo.
