'We're not going to be led by people who let us down when we were on strike." Montreal strikers held out for 17 days, insisting on wage in- crease figures even after postal workers in other Canadian cen- tres returned to the job to await a government commissioner's pay findings, During the extended Montreal strike, Mr. Houle called Les Hood, national president of his own union and chairman of the brotherhood of all postal unions, a "strikebreaker" for urging the strikers back. The return to work was cou- pled with a promise that the unions would hold a_ national referendum on whether _ the eventual salary recommenda- tions were satisfactory and whether a new -- "official" -- strike should be called if they were not.

SEARCY, Ark. (AP) -- The death count from an explosion and fire in a Titan II missile launching site rose to 53 today with the discovery of six more bodies on lower levels of the underground silo. "It is very possible this is the final count," said Capt. Douglas Wood, U.S. Air Force public information officer at site. Searchers planned to pump several feet of water out of the bottom of the concrete tube holding the missile before giv- ing up the search. The exact number of civilian workmen in the missile com- plex at the time of the blast and fire Monday was uncertain 4\through the long night of prob- ing--first, hopefully, for surviv- ors, and then for the bodies of the dead scattered through the various levels of the shaft. Two workmen scrambled out *|when the fire erupted and es- caped without serious injury. The air force said all the vic- '\tims apparently were asphyxi- ated when the blust and fire sealed off their means of eés- cape and filled the complex with smoke. Rescue teams wearing asbes- tos suits and gas masks, and using special gear to help their breathing in the smoke-clogged silo, worked through the night bringing the bodies to the sur- face. The air force said the Titan II in the tube, an intercontinen- tal ballistics missile capable of delivering a nuclear warhead 6,000 miles, did not burn. NO NUCLEAR PERIL It was not. armed, the air force said, and there was no danger of a nuclear explosion. Cause of the blast and fire was not determined. ; Two men escaped with minor burns from the fiery launching tube, bringing out sketchy de- tails of a sudden blast, fire and smoke. ti The men in the tube were ci- vilians working to update the physical plant of the missile complex, part of a ring of Ti- tan II launching sites in central Arkansas. The four air force:crew mem- bers in the control centre of the complex--the most distant Runaway Boys "Delinquent" BRAMPTON (CP)--Two boys who ran away from home eight months ago and then mysteri- ously turned up again Saturday were adjudged delinquent and unmanageable Monday for leaving home without their par- ent's permission. Anthony M. Diamond, 14, of Malton, and Clinton Carpenter, 12, of Cooksville, both towns near here, appeared before Judge H. T. G. Andrews in Peel county family and juve- nile court. : Judge Andrews adjourned the hearing for final adjudication in Cooksville family and juvenile court Aug. 27. He placed the boys in a Tor- onto juvenile and detention home and ordered a social his- tory and psychiatric examina- tion to be done on the pair. The judge ordered that if these reports were ready on time the court date be moved ahead to Aug. 23.

At least eight other air force men and a number of civilians working above ground were not harmed by the blast, Air force rescue teams in as- bestos suits climbed down into the 155-foot deep launch com- plex and carried bodies out of the upper levels--about 45 feet below ground. RELATIVES WAIT About 100 relatives, clustered in small groups and talking quietly, waited under a full moon in the warm night air for word on the rescue operation. The first bodies were brought out about four hours after the blast. The site is about 12 miles out- side of Searcy, a town of 8,000 population about 50 miles north- east of Little Rock. The civilians -- carpenters, painters, millwrights, electric- ians and pipefitters--were em- ployees of Peter Kiewit and Son Co. of Aurora, Col One of. the survivors, Hubert A. Saunders, 59, of Conway, a paint foreman, said the fire might have resulted from the explosion of a diesel engine. 'I GOT OUT' "The fire poured into the gun barrel (launch tube)," he said. "T was in there and so was the bird (missile) so I got out of there." i He said the power failed in the silo after the fire and he groped his way up an emer- gency ladder. He was in hos- pital because of smoke inhala- tion. Another survivor, 18-year-old Gary Wayne Lay of Clinton, a part-time laborer at the proj- ect, said he heard an explosion. "It was horrible," Lay said. "I could hear men screaming and crying. Somebody was yel- ling 'Help me god, help me!' I tried to go down the ladder, but the men were jammed up there, so I went up, through the fire,"' "It was horrible,' Lay said. "T thank the Good Lord for sav- ing me."
