WASHINGTON, March 2—
Sen. Robert A. Taft, R., O., told
steel executives today that their
recent increase in steel prices
added fuel to the inflationary
spiral by stiffening labor's de
mand for third-round wage hikes.
He also suggested to President
Benjamin F. Fairless of U. S.
Steel Corp., and A. B. Homer,
head of Bethlehem Steel co.,
that their action had heightened
public demand for price and al
location controls. Both indust
rialists countered that the rise
was justified by higher costs
which gives no leeway for wage
boosts.
