"Where th Fit is Guaranteed" should be done brought things to a virtual standstill. To Discuss Data The first part of new West ern strategy is to insist that the Soviets discuss scientific data from U.S. underground tests a year ago. Russian ne gotiators have steadfastly re fused to consider the new findings. The U.S. tests indicated that it is much more difficult than scientists first thought to dis tinguish between underground nuclear explosions and earth quakes. One negotiator said: "This technical data is an absolute must. There cannot be an adequate control sys tem unless it is shaped around information obtained in these reports. ""If they won't consider this technical data, we won't sit there very long."

If they don't Great Britain and the U.S. will insist im mediately that negotiations center on banning tests in the atmosphere and underwater, with the idea of negotiating later on . tests under the ground and at high altitudes. Detecting atmospheric tests is much simpler, and a quick er agreement is possible if Russia is willing to go. along. So far their negotiators have insisted on an all-inclusive ban. Split on Key Issues - The three-power talks have resulted in agreement on more than a score of relative ly non-controversial provi sions for setting up a control system. But East and West are still far apart on key issues. The West has refused to agree to Soviet demands for a veto over some administra tive decisions. The Soviets are resisting Western demands on the number of on-site inspec tions for checking our su spicious reports. There also is a difference over the number of foreign personnel that should staff control posts. Russia has claimed that the West would se its control personnel to spy on the Soviet Union.

Morse Urges That Federal Laws Control Steelmakers Eugene - (UPD - Sen. -Wayne L. Morse (D-Ore.) declared Friday night he would intro duce a bill in to the Senate next January to impose fed eral regulations on the steel industry. Morse, speaking to a Dem ocratic potluck dinner here, said "the steel industry is no Mayor Snider Gels Letter from Finland A letter was received by Medford Mayor John W. Snid er last week from the mayor of Helsinki, Finland, acknow ledging a letter and small gold key to the city sent him by Snider. The mayor had written the "first mayor" of Helsinki and other officials of. European cities to introduce Dr. Leon ard B. Mayfield, . Medford school superintendent, now on a tour of Europe and Rus sia. "The state department en courages exchange of com munications between cities," Mayor Snider said this morn ing. "City Councilman Rob ert Baccus, Wilson school principal, heads a committee which is planning an ex change program with some city overseas." The letter stated: "Dear Colleaque, Thank you very much for your kind letter and greetings. I am most grateful for the key of your city. I extend best "wiches" from the citizens of Helsinki to you and the people of your city." The letter was signed by Lauri Aho, first mayor of Hel sinki. .

"It has reached the point now at which it is vested with the public interest," he said. "The steel industry, to a great extent, sets the eco nomic picture of the United States," the Senator declared. "The industry ought to be placed under mini'mMm regu lations." 'Take Him On Noting that his Senate seat is up for grabs in 1962 and that Republican Gov. Mark Hatfield has been mentioned often as a possible competitor, Morse said he was ready to "take him on." Morse de clared that his next campaign would make the one in 1956 seem like a tea party. Commenting on the current deadlock in the steel strike, Morse said he felt the Presi dent's fact-finding board should be allowed to offer suggestions for solving the deadlock, instead of just re turning observations of fact. Morse said the steel indus try should be placed under regulations similar to the Fed eral regulations of railroads. Hikes Unjustified . "We can no longer let the steel industry decide what the price of steel shall be," he went on. "There hasn't been one steel price increase in the past 10 years that can be jus tified by a wage increase." The senator said that every time wages were increased, HOW CHRISTIAN SCIENCE HEALS ' Station KBOY 730 K.C. Charges the price of steel was raised several times the amount of the wage increase.
