Sfee! Industry
Wage Spiral
"Washington -CPD- President
Eisenhower strongly appealed
to the steel industry today to
avoid a price increase which
might lead to an inflationary
wage-price spiral. 1
The President told his news
conference that normally it
was not the function of the
federal government to inject
itself into collective bargain
ing. But he said he could not
keep silent in the face of .what
a reporter described as union
labor plans for a steel strike
this summer.
Out of Character
Eisenhower said It would be
completely out of character
for him to wash his hands of
this issue like a Potinus Pi
late. He said if the United States
was going to continue on the
road of a prospective, free
economy, the price of steel
Rescuers Seek
More Bodies in
Oklahoma Blast
Oklahoma City, Okla. -UPD-Rescue
teams dug through
tons of debris without hope
today of finding alive the two
- men missing in a violent ex
' plosion at Wilson meat pack
ing plant.
Five persons were killed
and 16 injured, five critically,
Tuesday when a heavy ice
making machine on the
seventh floor ripped loose and
plunged to the basement tear
ing loose ammonia lines that
enveloped workers in a fog
of deadly gas.
Feared Crushed
Workers feared that James
Mcintosh and Claude Wilkin
son, both of Oklahoma City,
were crushed under the wreck
age or drowned in water that
filled the basement of the
huge meat packing plant
Their deaths would raise the
count to seven killed.
A spokesman at the plant
said there was little doubt that
the men were dead.
If tney weren't dead or
drowned, the ammonia would
have gotten them by this
time," he said.
Gigantic Puzzle
Firemen said rescue teams
have to handle their job like
a gigantic jig-saw puzzle and
pull the wreckage apart piece
by piece. "One wrong move
could send more wreckage
crashing into the pile they
believe covers the missing
men. .
Known to be dead are Paul
D. Ferrell, 25, Santos Sota
Miranda, 61, and Ronald Por
ter, 30, all of Oklahoma City,
and Reuben McDowell, 46,
and Harmon Simmons of
Mustang, Okla.
must not go up and thus lead
to demands for higher wages.
The President made no di
rect reference to steelworkers
dropping wage increase de
mands. He said the impending
wage-price picture in steel
made it necessary for labor
and management to exercise
the fullest qualities of eco
nomic statesmanship in deal
ing with their differences.

Congress Works on
Last-Minute Details
Prior To Recess
Florence Chamber
Opposes Dunes Park
Florence -(UPD- The Florence
Chamber of Commerce Tues
day came out in opposition
to a plan that would turn the
sand dunes and the coastal
lakes into a national park
preserve.
The board said the proposal
would remove so much pro
perty, from the tax roles that
the local school district would
be bankrupt.
Sen. Richard Neuberger (D
Ore.), said last Friday that he
would propose a bill to turn
the dunes and the Sea Lion
Caves into national park
areas.
MRS. WRIGHT DIES
Santa Monica, Calif. - (UPD
, Private funeral services were
held Tuesday for Mrs. Cath
erine Lloyd Wright, 87, the
first wife of famed architect
Frank Lloyd Wright and
grandmother of actress Anne
Baxter. Mrs. Wright died early
Tuesday at a sanitarium where
she had been confined for the
past 10 years after being in
jured in a fall.
Washington -UPD- Congress
planned to clear up some last
minute legislative details to
day before embarking on a
10-day Easter recess.
In the Senate, approval was
expected of a three-month ex
tension of the emergency un
employment compensation
program. senate passage
would send the bill back to
the House for transmittal to
President Eisenhower before
benefits expire April 1 for
405,000 idle workers.
Called up for House debate
and probable swift approval
was President Eisenhower's
request for an immediate $1,
375,000,000 contribution to
the International Monetary
Fund.
Senate Specifies
The Senate specified last
week that the money couldn't
be taken from the Treasury
until the new fiscal year
starts July 1. That would rule
out any hope for a balanced
budget in fiscal 1960.
For this reason the House
was expected to turn thumbs
down on the Senate plan and
vote to withdraw the money
in the current fiscal year.
The House and Senate votes
were due to trigger a rush of
legislators on their Easter re
cess, which doesn't begin of
ficially until Thursday. It will
be the first break in the 86th
Congress after 11 weeks of
near-record work.
Other Congressional News
Oil: Sen. William Proxmire
(D-Wis.) said he would intro
duce legislation to rescind
President Eisenhower's recent
order imposing mandatory
quotas on certain types of oil
imports. He said Eisenhower's
recent order was "just the lat
est instance in a series of im
mense political privileges for
oil featured by the lushest tax
giveaways any American in
dustry has ever enjoyed."
Rackets: The Senate Rack

spent two days loking into
juke box racketeering in New

-He expressed the hope that
Secretary of State John Foster
Dulles, after a period of re
cuperation in Florida, will be
able, as he put it, to return
to work in one capacity or an
other. -He agreed with Senate Fi
nance Chairman Harry F.
Byrd (D-Va.) that there must
be no let-up in the drive for
economy in federal spending.
But' he said no one, including
myself, was in any position to
lorecast veto of specific ap
propriations bills until the
measures are actually before
him for action.
-He would not recant his
1958 election campaign criti
cism of some Democrats in
Congress as being reckless
spenders, but he did say that
he had not meant this label
to be applied t6 the entire
party.

-Asked whether he thought
Senate Democratic Leader
Lyndon B. Johnson was well
qualified to be a presidential
candidate next year and
whether Johnson would be
difficult for the Republicans
to beat, Eisenhower answered
crisply that the Texas Demo
crat had been his warm per
sonal friend for years and, like
himself, belonged to the
Cardiac Club. This was a ref
erence to the fact that both
had suffered heart attacks.
-He said there has been a
great deal of guerrilla fight
ing against the Communists
in Tibet and it is obvious that
the people there are disturbed
andjrestive under Communist
control. The Chinese Commu
nists have had to bring in re
inforcements to deal with the
situation. But reports are so
sketchy that little more than
this can be deduced.
-Eisenhower said a continu
ing government study of oil
import quotas was necessary
to prevent the price of oil
from going so high that it en
dangered national security.
