LONDON (AP)--Directors ot | Courtaulds, big manufacturer of artificial fibres, and of the Im-| perial Chemical Industries an- nounced today they were con- sidering plans to co-operate in some manner without actually merging their vast industrial enterprises. ICI, Britain's largest indus- trial company, suggested a mer- ger--the British 'take - over' technique--Dec. 18 on a basis of a stock exchange. Last Friday the Courtaulds directors announced they were recommending to their stock- holders to reject the ICI offer. They said Courtaulds prospects were excellent and. financial quarters speculated on whether ICI would make a fight of it by improving its offer and appeal- ing directly to Courtaulds stock- holders. Monday, it was announced the opposing boards of directors were considering a Courtaulds suggestion for co - operation which does not involve an ac- tual merger. Details of the sug- gestion were not announced, but a statement issued jointly by the two boards said: "ICI have today received fur- ther proposals from Courtaulds designed to solve problems of the man-made fibres industry other than by a complete mer- ger of the two companies. Firms Have Plan For Co-Operation for four of Courtaulds. Court- aulds directors and their bank- ing advisers found the offer in- jadequate. The stock market speculated nervously as to whether it might be improved by ICI. D. P. Chambers, ICI chairman, an- nounced last week the ICI of- fer was final. PRODUCE RAYON ' Courtaulds has Canadian sub- idiaries at Cornwall, Ont., which include Courtaulds (Can- sidiaries at Cornwall, Ont., which include Courtaulds (Can- ada) Limited. They produce vis- cose rayon textile yarn, tire yarn and staple fibres, also moulded plastic products such as Larson boats and other plas- tic products. Two other British companies, the General Electric Company and Mullard, Ltd., a subsidiary of the big international Philips group, announced Monday they have worked out an agreement for co-operation - without-mer- ger. There had been specula- tion for weeks the Philips group might make a multi - million- pound take - over bid for the General Electric Company. A joint statement by Mullard and the General Electric Com- pany said they have agreed to pool their resources in the field of semi-conductors. PERHAPS IN WEEK "Courtaulds now suggest that all matters of principle relat- ing to these proposals could be settled within a week or 10 days. "On this basis ICI are pre- pared to discuss these propos- als and a further. statement will be made within 10 days.

WASHINGTON (CP)--A long- awaited government guidebook on how tu survive a nuclear war through fallout shelters appears to have left a large segment of the American public frus- trated and unhappy. Critics maintain that after arousing the country to the need of protection against a possible holocaust, President Kennedy has presented the pub- lic with a dull, uninspired as- semblage of old information useless to those who live in potential bomb-blast areas. A clergyman says the 46-page booklet on fallout protection fails to dramatize the horror of nuclear war. A newspaper says the booklet language lacks a sense of urgency. And a scien- tist adds the five-megaton-bomb example used in the booklet is unrealistic since Russia main- tains it has far bigger ones on its arsenal. One of the sure things of 1962, says the crystal-gazing Balti- more Sun, is that masses of Americans are not going to storm post offices demanding their copy of the booklet. The Sun says Kennedy must have coneluded a nuclear war is not imminent. In contrast, the federal civil defence office, which is dis- tributing 25,000,000 copies of the booklet, feels the case for the fallout shelter has been som- brely and adequately stated. It confirms that an earlier draft written by a team of profes- sional writers had been ditched because it was "too vivid" but it denies the pamphlet is in any way designed to replace anxiety by complacency. "The trouble," says one of- ficial, "is that many people think fallout is the same as bomb-blast. If a nuclear bomb hits your area directly, all we can say is: Pray. "We thought we made this clear in the guide where we said the areas of blast and fire would be scenes of havoc, dev- astation and death and that the experience would be terrible beyond imagination and descrip- tion. "We used the five-megaton bomb (equivalent to 5,000,000 tons of TNT) as an illustration because this is the kind of weapon that might be used. We know Russia fired a bomb of about 55 megatons and that it claims to have a bomb of 100 megatons but there is no proof Russia can fire such bombs across oceans." Perhaps the greatest frustra- tion to the individual, say, liv- ing in Washington, New York, Chicago or other major target area, is that the booklet vir- tually writes off the bomb-blast area as a complete human loss. It dismisses evacuation as taking too long; emphasizes there is little likelihood that a pill or any other type of med- icine will be developed to pro- tect people against fallout radia- tion and gives no evaluation of whether deep, heavily - rein- forced underground shelters could mitigate the impact of a direct hit. Rather, it concentrates on areas which would not be hit but might suffer from the dan- ger of fallout drifting from the devastated. area. It recommends community shelters were pos- sible, conceding that in rural areas, family shelters may be the only feasible solution. If war ever comes and shel- ters are provided, the individual will know: "Bread is still edible even when mouldy; sour milk is drinkable. Fruits and vegetables with 'rotten' spots cut out are safe to eat; if they have bons exposed to fallout, wipe, was and peel them, disposing of wash-water and peelings out- side the shelter." pes) Get skin relief from m painfal Gently medicated to soften oy comfort chapped areas, promote Mentholatum Ointment + a ee ASSOCIATION EXECUTIVE INSTALLED ber of the association. --Oshawa Times Photo right.
