Returns Again
To Moonport
Cape Kennedy, Fla., Apr. 9

least temporarily today at Flor-

port.
For the first time in eight
days the force of more than
4,600 building trades workers
was on the job. Absenteeism
ranging up to 2,630 workers a
day had seriously crippled con-
struction of launching facili-
ties for space programs of the
future, including m a n-to-the
moon flights.
Two sepqyate disputes involv-
ed the United Plant Guard
Workers of America and the
Iron Workers Union.
Neither was settled, but
truces reached in both enabled
workers to report on the job.

Bio de Janeiro, Apr. 9 IB—
Military and congressional lead-

de Janeiro, have agreed on a
bill to rid congress, the govern-
ment and the armed forces of
extreme leftists. The general
who helped overthrow Presi-
dent Goulart last week had de-
manded such legislation. As
drawn up for submission to the
congress in Brasilia, it appar-
ently would temporarily sus-
pend certain constitutional
rights of the persons involved.
The leaders of the govern-
ment upset went all officials to
the ousted Goulart regime to
lose their civil right for li
years and they demand that im-
munity from prosecution be
voided for congress members,
lifetime judges and professors.
Other changes also would be
involved. Work on the anti-sub-
