Mansfield Asks
Investigation of
Viet Nam Waste
Washington DPD Senate
Democratic Whip Mike Mans
field has called for an im
mediate State Department in
vestigation of charges of waste
in the foreign aid program
in Viet Nam.
The Montana senator wrote
Acting Secretary of State C.
Douglas Dillion calling atten
tion to the first of a series of
articles on the program by
Albert M. Cplegrove of the
Scripps-Howard Newspapers.
Serious Proportions
Mansfield told Dillon that
"the suggestion of maladmin
istration which is contained
in this article is of such serious
proportions that I am con
vinced that an immediate ex
ploration of the situation is
necessary."
He said that if the rest of
the articles sustain "the seri
ous allegations contained in
the first," he will urge Chair
man J. William Fulbright (D-
Ark.) to launch a full-scale
investigation by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee.
Disturbed by Charges
Mansfield said he was par-
ticulary disturbed by the fol
lowing charges in the articles:
-What may be excessive pay
and emoluments for officers of
the (aid) program in Saigon
. . . coupled with a supercili
ous, virtually 19th century
mode of existence which can
only dismay the Vietnamese
people. -
. Reported loss of adequate
control over U. S. funds used
in the program.
-That adverse political con
sequences in the country may
result from "failure to ad
minister this program in an
effective and constructively
oriented fashion."

Steel Supervisors Prisoners
By Own Choice During Strike
Aliquippa, Pa. -(DPD- Ru
dolph Vogel, a Jones & Laugh
lin Steel Corp. employee, is
a "prisoner by choice" in the
mill at which he has worked
since 1937.
He is one of about 500 sup
ervisory personnel who hav.e
stayed in the big plant here
since Tuesday, a day before
the nationwide strike began.
They have the alternative of
remaining in the mill or going
out and being refused re-
entrance ; by pickets of the
United Steel workers Union.
Most -of the men have
chosen to stay in the plant to
maintain blast furnaces and
other equipment during the
length of the strike. J&L has
begun court action to guar
antee "prisoners" here and
at two other mills free access
to their jobs. .
" Vogel, a machine shop fore
man, told united .Press in
ternational by telephone that
he has only one gripe about
remainmg in the mill for the
past seven days'.
"There's nothing more
dreary to an old-time steel
man than an idle mill at
night," he said, "and you feel
it all the more when you have
to remain here." .
TlA steel veteran added,
however, that it is "not too
tough on us old-timers."
"We've gone through this
before -I guess you can say
we're used to it. But the
younger fellas, those guys that
never did it before . . . some
of them are taking it pretty
rough," he said. "Especially
those -with small kids."
"But even some of the old
timers are nervous, I guess it's
the kind of temperament you
have," he said.
Vogel said that the men in
the mill .range in age "all the
way from about 23 to 65."
'Expected to Stay'
The steel foreman, who lives
in Aliquippa, said the men ex
pected to stay "when we came
to work on Tuesday." They
brought along extra clothes.
The men are sleeping on
cots in their offices or in their
shops, he said. He explained
that the steel ' company has
these "on hand all the time
for emergencies."
They have been eating their
meals in the plant restaurant.
Vogel has no gripes about this.
. "I can't complain about the
food. We can always go to
the freezer."
Vogel . said the men have
"plenty to keep us occupied.
There's always something to
do."
His wife recalled that when
he left horde last. Tuesday he
said, "Well, expect me when
you see me." .
How does she feel about his
not having been home for six
days?
"They're just in there and
that's it," , she said. "When
you've been a steelworker's
wife for a long time, you learn
to expect things like this, and
prepare for them."
"Nobody feels very good
about the strike," she added.
"I have sons, and sons-in-law
who aren't working at all."
Then she said hesitantly,
"we're hoping he'll be out in
one or two days."

six applicants for the job of

the condidates at a date to
be set later.

from Wisconsin and one from

fied, except that Dr. Russell
Guiss, acting superintendant
of the new Dammasch state

cant. He is also temporary
superintendent of the mid-Columbia
home.
Holding Two Positions
Attorney General Robert Y.
Thornton said recently ftiat
Guiss could not sign payrolls
for the mid-Columbia home,
because he was holding two
lucrative positions at one time.
But both Gov. Mrk Hat
field and State Treasurer Sig

understand Thornton's reason
ing because Guiss was not
drawing any extra pay for the
mid-Columbia job.

board, Secretary of State
Howell Appling, was not pres
ent. He was at Nyssa to greet
the entrance of the On-to-Oregon

'Juvenile Hormone'
Said Found in Cows
Ithaca, N. Y. -(UPD- Two Cor
nell University scientists have
discovered that the "juvenile
hormone," a chemical which
prevents aging in insects, ap
parently exists in higher
forms of life as well. '
The hormone allows insects
to grow in size without matur
ing. Prof. Howard A. Schneider
man and Lawrence I. Gilbert,
a graduate student, have ob
tained a chemical from the
cow's adrenal cortex which,
when administered to insects,
has the same effect. The re
searchers say this is the first
substance ever obtained from
a higher animal which does
affect insect growth.
