New Automobile Models, Steel Prices Have Business Guessing t pt urn f wit 7r UPI Financial Edilor New "Sbrk (UPI) Busi ness men are trying to guess on two immediate develop- in e n t s that may have an influence on the economy.

(UPI) The Dallas sch'ool board has skirt ed the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling to integrate all schools by voting that the city's 141 public schools remain segre gated during the next school year. School board president Dr. Edwin L. Rippy announced Wednesday "the school board has instructed the superin tendent of schools that there shall be no alteration of the present status regarding seg regation of the races within the schools of this district for the school year beginning in September, 1958." Ruling Applauded The board's unanimous rul ing was received with ap plause. Another resolution asked Andrew J. Thuss, the school board's attorney, to begin new litigation to resolve differ ences between Federal and state law. The Dallas school system has been caught between a federal ruling which requires integration with all possible speed and a state law which forbids school integration without a popular ballot. Texts law stipulates that a petition, signed by 20 per cent of the voters, must be passed in oPder to abolish the dual school system. The state ruling says any school which desegregates otherwise will lose state ac creditation and be subject to $1,000 fine in addition to au tomatically losing state funds. Prineville Log Truck Driver Killed Mitchell, Ore. (UPI) Truck driver Raymond Ger ald Adkinson, 27, Prineville, was killed outright in an acci dent on Highway 26 near here late Wednesday.

The impact threw the logs onto the cab, crushing Adkin son instantly. COFFEE CUPS Millington, Tenn. (UPI) Druggist Sam Rawls has a spe cial shelf for individual corn fee cups for his regular "cof fee break" customers. Each cup has the person's nme on it, as well as a picture depict ing either a hobby or char acteristic of the person. copper, tires, and myraid other items that go to make the automobiles of today. A steel price rise may or may not become a reality. Most of the steel experts be lieve a price rise is a "must" because they assert there isn't enough leverage to ab sorb increased costs. Workers get an automatic rise in pay under their two-year contract on July 1st. They also get a boost on the cost of living index rise. Last Resort It is known that steel mak ers will raise their prices only as a last resort after they have gone over all the figures again. They frankly do not want to run afoul of the Washing ton investigators. Hence their interest today in an article entitled "The j Manipulated Price Rise" by Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) published in the June 28 issue of "The Nation." Down in Wall Street the word is that Senator Kefauv er will be highly disappointed if the steel companies do not raise their prices so that he can blow up a big investiga tion. ; If the steel companies raise their prices on July 1, Ke fauver said in the first para graph of his article, "it will be under circumstances diffi cult to justify, and the results are certainly not calculated to hasten economic recovery for the country as a whole." Afraid of 'Noise' From this remark, the steel industry concludes a price rise would probably set off a bigger bellow than usual in Washington because of the po litical capital that might be extracted from the noise. The steel companies have been revamping their produc tion facilities to produce steel at reduced costs, and the ex- Transit Permit Will Be Extended Portland (UPI) City Commissioner William A. Bowes said Wednesday the city will accept a short term extension for Rose City Tran sit company's operating per mit until Oct. 31, to avoid an immediate shutdown at the July 5 deadline. Bowes directed the city at torney's office .to prepare an ordinance embodying the per mit extension for full council action next week.

The guesses are that there will be no steel price rise on July 1 but that one will come eventually.

Movies Bring Big Demand for Books When Showing Here Movies mean more business for the Jackson county li braries. Every time a movie based on a famous book shows in Jackson county theaters, there is an immediate demand for the book at most branches of the library, according to Librarian Helen Webster. Recently when "A Fare well to Arms," the screen adaptation of Ernest Heming way's novel of love and war, played locally, the library had many requests for the book. Another Hemingway novel, "The Sun Also Rises," is the basis for the film of that title currently being played in local theaters. Other Movies Other current movies which have brought a burst of in terest from Rogue valley resi dents in the books on which they were based include "The Bridge on the . River Kwai," "Raintree County," "Marjorie Morningstar," "T h e Young Lions," "Sayonara," and "Old Yeller.", "That little note at the be ginning of the movie, 'Based on the novel by Ernest Hem ingway or James Michener or Ross Lockridge,' almost never fails to bring requests for the book," the librarian said. Reading of literary classics especiially has been stimu lated by film adaptions in re cent years, according to Miss Webster. . " Surge of Interest The current movie version of Dostoevski's best - known novel, "The Brothers Kara mazov," has brought a surge of 'interest in the Russian classic' Other films based on well-known classics include "Gone With the Wind," "War and Peace,"" "Moby Dick," "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," "Eighty Days Around the World," "Red Badge of Courage," "Giant," "I van hoe," and "God's Little Acre." , The highly praised foreign films, "The Red Balloon," and "White Mane" were adapted from books available in the library's junior department. The library also has hun dreds of other well - known books and plays that have been the ba$is for motion pic tures, as well as two novels, at least, which are soon to be filmed, "Tale of Two Cities" and "By Love Possessed."
