The Steel Price Future Dim Eyed Today PITTSBURGH (AP) Will steel prices go up July 1 to compensate for a scheduled hike in steelwork- ers' wages? United States Steel Corp., which normally sets the steel price pat tern, said yesterday no decision has been reached. In a statement, President Clif ford P. Hood had this to say: "In view of increased labor some degree of relief through higher sales prices must therefore be given serious consideration which it deserves. "However, any adjustment of sales prices can only be made in the light of all known commercial and economic factors, including competitive conditions in the steel ' industry, the general business out look, and underlying customer product demand." Hood said U. S. Steel Is con tinuing Its study of all these fac tors. Adding: "The only point we have reached to date is not to attempt to change our prices until the situation clarifies itself." The July 1 wage hike, Hood said, will average about 5'4 per cent or 20 cents an hour for U. S. Steel's hourly-rated employes. He said the company has al ready absorbed a five-cents-an-hour cost-of-living Increase with out boosting prices, not to men tion higher taxes and transporta tion costs.

Ties Up Ships NEW YORK (APi-A five-dav- old strike by marine engineers to day continued its slow paralysis of American-flag shipping in East and Gulf Coast por's. Negotiations between the Ma rine Engineers Beneficial Assn., and the American Merchant Ma rine Institute, the employer group, have been stalled since Wednes day. Five voyages by Grace Lines ships were cancelled yesterday. The huge liner America's sched uled sailing for Europe with 1,000 passengers late today also was threatened. An MEBA picket line was set up yesterday on the pier nhere the America is docked. Officials of the International Longshoremen's Assn. said later they would not honor MEBA pick et lines. The Masters, Mates and Pilots Union, however, announced it would respect the picket lines. Possibility of the strike spread ing to the West Coast was re moved up a new three-year con tract agreement between two maritime unions and the Pacific Maritimes Assn. The contracts with the Marine Engineers and the Masters, Mates and Pilots covers about 5,000 union members and 18 shipping companies. No accurate figures on the num ber of ships halted by the strike were available. A union spokes man said he assumed more than 100 ships now were berthed at East and Gulf Coast ports. The engineers have refused to sail the ships since their contract expired at midnight Sunday. The engineers, who now make $493 to $1,052 a month, want a wage increase; a $230 monthly pension; 60 days vacation, and ini' proved job security. In San Francisco, a Pacific Maritime Assn. spokesman said the agreement there calls for. a $r0 increase in monthly pension payments to $150, longer vacations and allowances for subsistence, travel and rooms. The old con tract also expired Sunday. Tear Gas Gun Teaches Boy pORRIS When Police Chief Byard Kelly of Dorris took the po lice car to a service station for servicing Wednesday, he didn't realize he was leaving a booby trap for two curious young men. While Martcl Sundkvist, operator of the station, worked on the car. two inquisitive youths decided to sec what makes a police car tick. Dean Lyon and Lloyd Logan .Jr., both juniors in Butte Valley High Schoul at Dorris,- climbed in the car and, among other things, found Chief Kelly's tear gas gun They took it out of its compart ment and fired it. Dean was taken home in tears, Lloyd was taken to the Hillside Hospital in Klamath Falls. Chief Kelly said Wednesday night that he doesn't know how long Lloyd will be hospitalized.

(AP) Presi dent Eisenhower heads for this this big Marine Corps base today to sit in on a conference of the top civilian and uniformed lead ers of the armed forces. Weather permitting, old soldier Eisenhower planned to make the 35 mile trip from the White House by helicopter. In the event of bad weather, he arranged to drive to the gathering of about 175 defense leaders. There were no announced plans for Eisenhower to talk to the con ference which meets annually to discuss internal Defense Depart ment matters and worldwide mili tary problems. ' However, Eisenhower may choose to stress to the generals and admirals his strong belief in the importance of his plan for streamlining the administrative and command structure of the military establishment. All busi ness sessions of the three-day con ference are beld behind closed doors. There is some opposition within the military services to various features of the reorganization pro gram. The House - has passed legislation to authorize streamlin ing measures, but some of its pro visions have met with Eisenhow er's objections. The bill now is be fore the Senate Armed services Committee. Secretary of Defense McElroy assigned to Deputy Secretary Don ald A. Quarles- and Gen. Nathan F. Twining, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the job of key noting the administration's reor ganization program. At a news conference yesterday, McElroy indicated still further cuts in military manpower may be expected. McElroy said he thought De fense Department recommenda tions for 870.000 soldiers and 175, 000 Marines are valid. The House has voted to overrule McElroy by boosting both of those manpower figures. The defense secretary also said he thought the military budget for fiscal 1960 might "look like a little more" than the prospective out lay of $40,800,000,000 for defense in fiscal 1959, starting July 1.
