Price Cut Request
Held One-Sided
WASHINGTON (.V To Re
publican senators lodsy urged n
arimiuistration official to explain
puny he asked two automobile firmi
to rescind recent price increase!
without making a similar request
of the steel industry.
The senators, Capehart of Indi
ana and Bricker of Ohio, termed
it incon,'stent for economic sta
bilizer Alan Valeniine to seek no
voluntary steel price cut and yet
expect General Motors and Ford to
cancel increases they had an
nounced. Valentine asked Ford and Gen
eral Motors last week to wipe out
the roughly five percent price
hikes they put into effect then.
Both companies refused, saying the
increases were justified because
of higher costs.
Capehart and Bricker raised
their questions about steel prices,
boosted last month after a wage
increase in the industry, as Valen
tine called in officials of Ford,
General Motors and other auto
companies today to talk over the
price situation.

Singapore Riot

pure was gradually returning to
normal today after two days of
bloody rioting over the custody of
a Moslem reared Dutch girl. The
casualty toll stood at 16 known
deud and at least 180 injured.
Though shops and business
houses reopened to brisk Christ
mas trade, the city remained un
der a dusk-to-dawn curfew.
In a fresh outbreak of violence
Malays and Indians set fire to an
o'her military truck in tne main
Moslem quarter this morning.
Police swooped down on the trou
ble sector and arrested some 30
Moslem youths, part of the fanat
ical mob which began island wide
rAting Monday in protest against
a court order returning 13-year-old
Maria Bertha Hertozh to the cus
tody of her Roman Catholic Dutch
mother.
The mother, Mrs. Adeline Her
toph, lost her daughter in 1942 dur
ing the Japanese orcupalki of
Java. Since , then, the child had
been reared as a Moslem by a
Malay woman who sought to re
tain custody of her.
The rioters sought to kidnap the
child and retuTn her to the Malay
foster mother and to the Moslem
schoolteacher Maria Bertha mar
ried last summer. An appeal by
the two Malays against the custody
order will be heard next March,
but the court ruled til t the child,
meanwhile, could be taken to Hol
land. Reports developed last night that
f Maria Bertha and her mother had
been spirited out of Singapore
aboard a Dutch warship. Dutch
consular officials refused to con
firm or deny the report.
