mild support in moderately
active trading today.
Traders moved cautiously
In anticipation of Thanksgiv
ing which begins a four-day

progress in the deadlocked

news comes with dramatic
suddenness.
Some steels moved up from
their opening, levels. Lukens
picked up more than a point.
Bethlehem and U.S. Steel add
ed fractions, while Youngs-
town was down a small frac
tion after opening off around
a point from its previous

Some of the electronics en
countered profit taking, but
these were in a minority.

More Cranberry
Seizures Slated
Washington-tUPD The gov
ernment has moved to seize
three more shipments of con
taminated cranberries, includ
ing one that the industry vol
untarily agreed to withhold
from the groceries.
At the same time, the Food
and Drug Administration an
nounced it had tested and ap
proved as safe another 4,236,
000 pounds of cranberries
since Friday.
This means that 13,152,000
pounds of berries have been
approved as free of amino
triazole, a chemical weed kill
er that causes cancer in rats.
Some 200,694 pounds have
been seized as tainted.
The pace of the. govern
ment testing tended to con
firm previous official state
ments that there would not
be nearly enough cleared ber
ries to go around for Thanks
giving dinners Thursday.

INVENTOR DIES
Bradley Beach, N.J. -flJTO-
Sol J. Levy, 62, an engineer
and inventor, died Monday at
Fit kin Memorial hospital,
Neptune, N.J., after a long ill-1
ness.
Mentally Retarded
Attention Called
Salem -(DPI- Gov. Mark Hat
field Monday called the at
tention of Oregon citizens to
their responsibilities to handi
capped persons. Nov. 15-26 is
national retarded children's
week.
Hatfield said there are some
54,000 children and adults in
the state who are mentally re
tarded to some degree.
"We have a real responsi
bility to these handicapped
persons," he said, "responsi
bility to provide the care,
treatment, ftraining, education
and job opportunities consist
ent with their potential in
life."
Paris -(CPD- France made it
clear today it not only has no
intention of canceling its
spring atomic tests but also
bitterly resents United Na
tions attempts to get them
called off.
French officials were un
willing to speak for the rec
ord but they made no secret
of their resentment of the ma
jority vote in the U.N. assem
bly last week against France's
atom bomb program. Much of
the resentment was focused
on Canada and Ireland.
'Unfair' Campaign
There also was a wide
spread feeling France was the
object of an "unfair" cam
paign launched by the Afro
Asian group in the United
Nations. This group sponsored
the resolution that was pass
ed. Some French officials ex
pressed indigination over the
world body condemnation of
an atomic test that hasn't ev
en taken place, while it said
nothing against the more than
200 test explosions already
set off by Russia, the United
States,, and Britain.
These tests were detonated
in areas much closer to habi
tation than . the one France
plans to set off in the Sahara
desert, the officials said. In
formed sources said the first
test probably will be detonat
ed aoove tne ground, on a
platform.
Bitter Pill
The fact Canada voted
against France was a particu
larly bitter pill for the French
to swallow because of
France's historic attachment
to that partially French
speaking country.
There were hints President
Charles de Gaulle may decide
not to visit Canada next
year when he goes to the
United States on an official
visit.
The French also believed
the Irish resolution asking
that the Soviet Union, United
States and Britain refrain
from handing over nuclear se
crets to other - nations was
aimed at France.

KHRUSHCHEV VACATIONS
London -(UPD- Soviet Pre
mier Nikita Khrushchev is in
the Black Sea coast resort of
Gagry, Radio Moscow said
Monday. It was presumed he
was on vacation.
A flawless emerald rarely
found, is more valuable carat
for carat than a diamond.
It based its findings on a
comparison of prices charged
by a local supermarket chain
for turkey, cranberries, pump
kin, milk, eggs and other sta
ples of the annual feast .
Believed Typical
Machinist editor Gordon
Cole said he believed the price
trends were typical of the na
tion as a whole.
Here's the paper's item-by-item
rundown on prices of
Thanksgiving ingredients this
year and last:
-Turkey is 10 cents a pound
less for a 17-pound bird, or
$1.70 less than the $8.33 price
tag in 1958. ,
-Coffee is now 77 cents a
pound, a decrease of 12 cents.
-Eggs at 69 cents a dozen,
are a dime a dozen cheaper.
-Apples are down from 45
cents to 39 cents per five
pound bag.
Milk Costs Less
-Lettuce is a cent less per
head. Milk now costs 24 cents
instead of 25 cents a quart in
the Washington area.
-Cranberries, canned pump
kin and bread prices haven't
changed.
-A few groceries cost more
this year. They are celery, up
four cents a bunch; butter,
up a penny a pound, and po
tatoes, also a cent a pound
higher.
The union publication said
it checked results of its lat
est survey with a 1954 round
up and found that prices were
very similar.
