Twenty-five other mountain climbers, including two women, wore reported Saturday at various stages of the ascent.

Price Five Cent lz Pace Government Postpones Seizure Plan WASHINGTON Wl Aetinir Do. fense Moblllzer John R. Steelman said the CIO steelworkers and the strikebound steel Industry will re sume negotiations in Pittsburgh Sunday morning in another peace eiiort. Steelman issued a statement from the White House Saturday which said both CIO President PhiliD Murray and chief Industry officials had agreed to his sug gestion that thev make anotner try at settling the crippling 48-day steel strike. The White House was known to have decided upon the new peace h-fltiKj of a meeting set in Pittsburgh Monday tor me viu steelworkers wage - poucy couuujv tee. COMMITTEE m.i. .Ammittpp Is widely expect ed to back up Murray's refusal to make any further concessions on the crucial union shop issue in the dispute. The committee also mlgnt asx u.iav tn take a Dosition on a new contract even iiumc: that of the industry. Steelman' brief announcement said -r -have asked the steel com - panies and Mr. Murray to renew joint negotiations in Pittsburgh to morrow. The parties have agreed to do so and to make a further elfort to reach agreement. The meeting will begin at 10 a.m. Philip Murray. CIO and Steel workers Union president, was re ported solidly backed bv his lieu tenants in his refusal to comnro- mise further on the demand for a union shop a form of compul sory unionism. One union source said the Watre- Policy Committee might ask Mur ray to retrace some of the ground he had given up through compro mise and take a new position even further away from the industry's stand. The steel industry appeared to be just as firm. In Chicago, Clar ence B. Randall, president of the Inland Steel Company and a lead ing spokesman for the industry. said "strong public opinion" is urging: his company "to stand fast and not sign a contract that will prevent a non-union man from working." POSSIBLE SEIZURE The possible seizure of a portion of the Idle mills under the Selec tive Service Act was reportedly taken under active consideration after a White House conference Thursday between Dr. John R. Steelman, acting chief mobilizer, and government production and defense officials. President Truman seised the in dustry on April 8 under his claimed Inherent constitutional powers. Two months later, on June 2. the Supreme Court in a 6 to 3 opinion held the seizure unconstitutional and ordered the mills returned to private ownership GROUNDWORK A great deal of groundwork would be necessary if tne govern ment did decide to attempt seizure of a small part of tire industry under the 1948 Selective Service Act. The Defense Department would have to place direct orders with struck plants. If these were not filled within a specified time, the President could seize the mills. The seizure provision of the Se lective Service Act was not de signed to deal with deadlocked la bor disputes. Nor did the govern ment consider it a practical solu tion at the time of the first seizure. Truce Parleys Again Secret MUNSAN, Korea Ofl Korean armistice negotiators met In their 12th straight off-the-record session Saturday but there was not indica tion progress was being made in settling the truce blocking issue of prisoner exchange.

Nuck olds, United Nation spokesman, re fused to discuss even the , atmo sphere during the 29 minute session at Panmunlom. Nuckols had described previous session as businesslike and de void of propaganda. Saturday ha said, merely:. "No comment."

But as he has done before, the governor left unfilled the crack in his wall of resistance against a convention draft movement.
