Dulles Sees Russia Unlikely To Seek War
New York (U.R) John Foster
Dulles, chief architect of the
peace treaty with Japan, said
Wednesday that Russia is "un
likely 'to seek an all-out war be
cause of Communist distrusts of
the Soviet's "largely non-Com
munistic" army.
"The Russians do hava a pro
gram of world conquest in
mind," Dulles said, "but they
will try to effect it through the
indirect methods of penetration
and subversion, rather than
through fullfledged war."

Two Basic Disputes
RagcAroundTruman's
Grab of Steel Mills
Washington QifS Hot ( witness against the Industry, the
are two baste disputes ratinf
around President Truman's seiz
ure of the steel industry. One
dispute Involves a question of
law. the other questions of eco
nomic fact.
The question ef law. of course,
is whether Mr. Truman had au
thority to seize the mills. Judre
Alexander HolUoffs refusal
Wdenesday to Issue an Immedi
ate restraining order acainst the
seizure did not settle the legal
question. The neat step will be
an industry effort to obtain an
actual injunction.
Old Timers Reminded
Already building up around
the question of Mr. Truman's
legal authority is angry debate
which reminds old timers of the
outburst which greeted FDR's
plan to reorganize the supreme
court back there In February,
1937. But the matter of the presi
dent's authority will remain a
question for the courts to de
cide. The economic question Is be

Support to Prices
Of Pork and Eggs
Washington !U.B The Agri
culture department went into
the ham and egg business Thurs
day. It is trying to bolster farm
ers' prices on pork and eggs.
The department offered to buy
300,000 cases of shell eggs and
"substantial quantities" of smok
ed pork products to "divert from
the market temporary surpluses
which are resulting in unfavor
able producer prices."
Under Pressure
Secretary of Agriculture
Charles F. Brannan has been
under heavy congressional pres
sure in recent weeks to aid egg
and hog producers.
Hog prices at the farm level
have fallen recently to about
$16.40 per 100 pounds compared
with $17.40 in January and
$21.20 a year ago at this time
Farmers egg prices have dropped
to 33.9 cents a dozen from 40.S
cents in January and 43.7 cents
a year ago.
The department will buy the
two non-price supported, perish
able products out of customs re
ceipts earmarked by Congress
for purchase of farm products
"to encourage consumption of
agricultural commodities by di
verting them from normal chan
nels of trade."
Smelt Run in Sandy
Fails To Develop
Portland (U.R)-r- A smelt run
on the Sandy river failed to ma-
erialize Thursday and Multno
mah County Sheriffs Deputies
said the little fish had apparently
moved on up the Columbia.
"Everything has disappeared.''
said Capt. Earl Stanley of the
sheriffs office.
One report indicated the smelt
were moving up the Columbia
and were at Rooster rock on the
Washington side. A sturgeon
fisherman said he hooked a
smelt in his line at Tanner creek
near Bonneville Dam.

steel makers are charged, in ef
feet, with, a profiteering effort
at the expense of the national
welfare.
Basle Chargo
His basic charge Is that the
Industry la as profitable or more
so than ever before and never
theless demands a big price hike
which It does not need to com
pensate for a big wage boost.
The industry's answer is that
Mr. Truman calculated steel
profits before taxes were de
ducted. The National City Bank of
New York has just published a
n port of corporation earnings
in 1950 and 1931. The report is
based on details analysis of an
nual reports of the 3.409 prin
cipal corporations in the United
States.
Estimate Not Supported
Thew figures do not seem to
support Mr. Truman's estimate
of steadily zooming steel indus
try earnings. The bank discov
ered a "profit squeeze" bearing
heavily on most industry, includ
ing steel. Higher taxes and high
er operating costs were deduc
ing net Income after taxes, cut
ting return on net assets and
trimming the profit margin oh
sales.
Fifty-three steel companies
were included in this report. For
all 3.409 corporations, net in
come after taxes fell seven per
cent from $13,773,321,000 in
1950 to $12,838,949,000 in 1951.
The overall profit margin in
sales dropped from 7.7 to 6.2 per
cent f
Net Declines
For the S3 iron and steel com
panies, the 1950 net after taxes
was $784,218,000 against $689.

slump of 12 per cent Iron and
steel return on net assets drop
ped from 13.3 per cent In 1930
to 5.8 per cent in 1931.
That is the statistical story of
recent steel profits as presented
by the National City bank.
