Controls also would be lifted on Items which hsve been selling at below celling prices lor at least three months. At present, no goods are rationed and only a few metals are being aiincniea. The effect of the amendment. If It remains In the bill, would be to remove Just about all price controls or force the Offloe of Price Stsbl- ligation to order rationing of things It wants kept under price ceilings. Tlie amendment was offered by Ren. Tslle (R. -Iowa ). and support ed heavily by Republicans. Demo crats almost solidly opposed It, but ninny wore soseiu. Tslle ssld the amendment would encourage free enterprise. Opponents, led by chairman 8pence (D.-Ky ), of the House Banking Committee, claimed It would amount to killing controls. Controls could be relmnosed whenever materials are allocated or rationed. "In es.isnce, this is saying there will be no price control law," de clared Rep. Hays (D.-Ohlo), Who opposed the amendment. ttpence ioia ine nouse n snouio face sauarely the Issue of price con trols and not destroy them by "Just whittling sway."

TAV WASHINGTON UP) Industry and the military say the natlon'a arms production everything from jet engines to atom bombs and nuclear submarines will come to virtual halt within a few weeks If the steel strike con tinues. A survey of manufacturers and defense experts Friday showed that In general enough steel Is on nana to eke out production until some time in August, but that In some instances the Impact of the steel production stoppage already is Deing ten, The situation goes beyond the non-delivery of unishea weapons themselves. If the hard steels need ed for tools can't be had, the wea pons can't be made. The effect of that can be far-reaching. . LOVETT Secretary of Defense Lovett.' calling the potential effect of the strike very serious, already has moved to get into arms produc tion channels the comnarativelv small amounts of steel production ana iimsnea steel still available. one action was to get steel out of warehouses and into weaporo- maaing pianis. lie CIO steel- workers Union headquarters at Pittsburgh telegraphed orders Thursday night to pass such de fense materials through picket lines. The Defense Department has requested contractors to shift steel orders to non - struck plants. There aren't mnnv nf th. y . -: But the department expects both measures to produce only minute amounts of steel compared with the vast tonnages needed. RAWLINGS Lt. Gen. E. W. Rawllngs, com manding general of the Air Mater. iel Command, said Thursday night the strike has not greatly affect ed military aircraft production to date. . He added in a statement, how ever, that "if the strike lasts long enough there are certain to be gaps In the pipeline" of supplies ana - . ooriousiy, aircraft produc tion will be affected." Shortages in ammunition al ready are appearing. One of the major items in this category is the 4.2 - Inch mortar shell. Iven in the present stalemated phase of the Korean War thousands of these ucus may oe usea in single day.: Each shell contains about '- 25 pounds of steel. The Navy says that, although there is steel available in ship yards and work can progress .in certain areas, lack of special types of steel for certain parts of a new or converted ship can atop con struction, i ' ATOMIC ENERGY The Atomic Enertrv Commission Is a heaw user of almost til tvn of steel. Large tonnages of stainless steel are used in the processing of the raw materials which go into the manuiacture of atomic bombs and nuclear power plants, like the two. being built for submarines. - And the Boeinir Airnlnni. Cr, maker of the B-47 let medium bomber said its plants at both Seattle and Wichita "are begin ning to feel the pinch" with avail able steel reserves being tapped.
