Steelworkers Pay Hiked;
Mills Turning Out Less
NEW YORK AP Thoe steel
workers who are still on the job
are getting more pay today than
they did Monday. But the mills
are turning out 4ess steel this week
than last and may produce at a
still lower rate before the sum
mer ends.
If so. layoffs may spread. Al
ready about a third of the steel
workers are idle. '
Users of steel, in the meantime,
are wailing for the other shoe to
drop a hike in the price of steel,
If there is to be one. The price
of this basic commodity affects
the cost of making most of the
durable goods you buy.
The big debate is how much of
an increase, if any, is justified,
or how much can be made to stick
in today's economic climate.
The two extremes are: 1 those
School Facts
Clothes Size
Revise Seen
WASHINGTON (AP)-A 13-year
effort to revise the standard sizes
of women's clothing bore its first
result Tuesday: A new breed of
T-shirt that should fit milady to
a tee.
The Commerce Department and
the National Knitted Outerwear
Assn. announced that women's T-
shirts henceforth will be manufac
tured and labeled in accord with
a new voluntary sizing standard.
Based on scientific body meas
urements of a representative
sampling of women, the standards
will be adopted later by some
other segments of the women's
ready-to-wear trade.
Starting now with T-shirts, wom
en will begin ordering items ac
cording to their dress sizes.
The purpose is to supply "the
maximum number of women with
good fitting clothes without the
need for repeated try-ons and ex
pensive alterations."
A Commerce Department state
ment said the standard can be
applied to all women's garments
with the possible exception of
brassieres. It seems the size of a
woman's bosom isn't neccssarilj
related to her other measure
ments.
The new standard covers four
classifications: Misses', women's,
half-sizes (for shorter women),
and juniors'. There also are three
height groups tall, regular and
short and three hip types slen
der. average and full.
. Thus a 14R minus would be a
fize 14, regular height, slender
hips; a 12T would be a size 12,
tall, full hips; a IBS would be a
size 16, short, average hips.
Men Drivers:
Take Heart
WASHINGTON (AP) Memo to
men drivers:
Take heart, the people planning
the highways of the future are
talking about ways to reduce haz
ards from skittish women drivers
A. Carl Stelling, a New York
highway consultant, (old about
some of the ideas, saying "today's
'masculine' highways must in the
future give way to roads geared
to feminine driving habits.
. Women are "generally less con
fident than men in making their
driving decisions," Stelling said
Tuesday in a speech prepared for
the American society ot Land
scape Architects.
I -Also, he said, they tend to
panic more quickly than men in
tight situations and their attention
is more likely to wander off the
road.
' What to do about it?
Well, Stelling foresaw the day
When:
Travel lanes would be wider,
allowing women "a great margin
of error in their motor maneu
verings. An exlra, slow speed, truckless
Jrne would be reserved for women
wkn get nervous at high speeds.
Emergency turnoff, or "pa'nic,"
areas would be closer together
and would be equipped with police
telephones, benches and shelters
tor bad weather.
Highway pavement would be
dhne in pastel colors "most wom
an would find it easier to follow
colors than to read signs."
in management who say that on a
purely mathematical basis the in
creased labor charges raise the
cost of making steel by $11 a ton;
i2i the union leaders who contend
that increased productivity in the
industry means that steel can be
turned out at the same price even
with the higher labor costs and
the companies will still make a
reasonable profit.
By increased productivity they
mean that today's newer equip
ment and improved processes re
sult in more steel being turned
out by one man's labor.
Union leaders also note that dur
ing the period that the mills got
down to operating at around SO
per cent of capacity, most com
panies still made a profit, even if
sharply lower than the earnings a
year ago when mills were oper
ating at near capacity.
In the old days the break-even
point was much higher. Com
panies felt that if they went much
below 80 per cent of capacity they
would lose money. But the break
even point has been lowered slow
ly as brand new mills came along
and old and obsolete equipment
was idled.
Those on the sidelines waiting
for steel management to make up
its collective minds feel th,at some
price increase will be coming
along this summer.
How much may depend as much
upon the amount of demand for
steel that develops after the sum
mer lull as upon the amount of in
crease in labor costs. Price con
cessions on some steel products
have cropped up here and there
during this period of keen compe
tition for a restricted market.
The latest wage boost includes a
basic rise of 9 cents an hour.
cost ot living pay rise of 4 cents
an hour, a one-third increase in
differentials for afternoon and
night work and payment of time
and one quarter for work on Sun
days and holidays.
The union says these raises, ex
clusive of the cost of living one,
average out at 13 cents an hour,
while management figures it at 16
cents. Adding in this week's cost
of living hike and one of 5 cent's
the first of the year, management
contends labor costs have gone up
25 cents an hour since last summer
have taken care of their summer
needs by ordering heavily in May
for June delivery to beat any price
rise. That is why many expect this
ummer s steel output to be skim
pier than usual.
But it a general business pick
up in the fall calls lor more
activity by the makers of durable
goods, steel companies would
have little trouble making a new
once hike stick.
The question then win be now
much of this added cost of steel
can be passed along to the stores
and to you. If consumer demand
for durable goods doesn t rise
from its present stale, manufac
turers may have to absorb much
of the new costs themselves.

es. if the proper guidance in
volving the parents, students and
ounsellors is used.
For example, of the 38 credits
mandatory for high school gradu
ation, only 20 are required by
state standards, that is, a gradu
ating student is required to have
completed four years of Lnglish,
one year of math, two years of
physical education, one year of sci
ence, and two years of social sci
ences.
The remaining 18 credits are
elective, and the choice of courses
are determined by the students
ana their parents.
However, the teachers and fa
cilities are included in the high
school curriculum whereby a stu
dent can receive advanced train
ing in such fields as math, sci
ence, English, history, languages
and other solid courses. It's up to
:he students and their parents
They can elect to take the ad
vanced training as a part of their
18 elective or optional courses.
The curriculum at the high school
is expansive to the extent that a
student can prepare himself or
herself to meet the entrance re
quirements of any college or uni
versity in this country.
For example, just consider tnis
vear s graduating class I r o m
Kl'HS.
One senior won the national merit
full scholarship at the Massa
chusetts Institute of Technology.
This scholarship is competed for
by high school students throughout
the nation.
Three of our students received
Weyerhaeuser Timber Foundation
scholarships. The foundation al
lots only IS of the scholarships to
competing students throughout 43
states.
One student received a full tui
tion scholarship to Northwestern
University. It is a Dupont chem

received an alternate appointment
to the U.S. Naval Academy.
Approximately 50 students re
ceived scholarships sponsored by
various civic, fraternal, and indi
vidual organizations.
The 1958 graduating class is liv

cililies are available. It's up to the
students and the guidance of their
parents to take advantage of
them.

By DKLOS SMITH
NEW YORK (UPI)-A scientific
study of "The Psychology Of the
Alcoholic" raises a brand new
question concerning drinking,
which is: "Why do so few per
sons become alcoholics?"
According to Richard J. King
ham, psychologist of the alcohol
ism unit of Philadelphia General
Hospital, it may do more good to
unwind that question and get it
answered than to keep right on
worrying the old, bogged - down
question, why are there so many
drunks?
The way he figured alcoholics is
that they re ridden hard by
informed learning." To show what
this means, he gave two exam
ples, that of a food-hungry rat
and that of a love-starved worn-
i.
The hungry rat is placed at the
entrance of a maze. He smells
the food in the box at the other
end. So he runs the maze, finds
the food, and eats it. His hunger
which was the nagging "drive"
that sent him through the maze.
is reduced and so he has learned
in a "reinforced way" how to re
duce it. Maze-running is on its
way to becoming a habit.
The woman feeling rejected and
unloved by her husband, sees a
box of chocolates. When she was
a girl, chocolates added up to
love and affection her parents
rewarded her with them. So she
buys and eats the chocolates
which reduces her "drive" of be
ing unloved and rejected. "Learn
ing" this was "reinforced" and
this will be her habitual way of
reducing the drive.
In alcoholics, a number of un
pleasant feelings may be the

countable, Kingham said, listing
frustration, lear, anger, loneli
ness, monotony, depression, and
rejection. Feeling this "drive,
the alcoholic grabs for the bottle
and drinks in what Kingham
called "the blitz paltern" which
puts him under. The "drive" is
reduced, his learning of how to
do it is reinforced and he'll re
peat.
But since everyone has those
those unpleasant feelings row and
then, the question is, why aren't
there more alcoholics? Kingham
sought to answer it theoretically
by suggesting that the relatively
lew persons who do become al
coholics are made uncomfortable
by any 'average mood," which is
neither high nor low, and seek to
avoid such a mood.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Rarely
has this capital where the spoken
word is anything but rare seen
?06 words launched with so much
fanfare.
The words were Bernard Gold-
fine's account last night of how
some of his favors to presidential
aide Sherman Adams came to be
charged off as business expenses.
doldline, a Boston millionaire.
said favors for Adams, including
hotel bills, were deducted by his
accountants as business expenses
He said he's willing to adjust his
lax returns if the Internal Reve
nue Service feels he made a mis
lake.
For a score of reporters, the
launching intended largely for
newsreel cameras was a frus
trating experience. There also was
sume evidence it was frustrating
for Goldline. a ruddy and grcgari
ous man. He seemed to want to
talk to the reporters but one of
his lawyers wouldn t let him.
Presiding over the production
was Tex McCrary, television per
sonality and public relations man.
McCrary told reporters neither
the White House nor the Republi
can National Committee had
brought him in to work with Gold
fine. He said he was helping out
an old friend, Roger Robb, one of
Goldfines lawyers, and was get
ling neither pay nor expenses.
The newsmen were summoned
lo a hotel ballroom by word that
Goldfinc would distribute his
statement at 8 p. m. and read it
lor the newsreels a half-hour later
When they arrived al 8, they
found the story already was in
most of their offices, because it
had been telephoned to the wire
services an hour earlier,
Goldfine wasn't expecled before
1 at the earliest.
Bottles and canapes were
wheeled in and McCrary said the
drinks were on Goldfine. He
smiled bravely when somebody
asked whellier doldline was go
ing to take the bar bill olf his
taxable income.
Nine o'clock came and went
while the reporters read newspa
pers and interviewed McCrary.
Goldfine arrived at 9:30. accom
panied by lawyer Samuel Sears.
McCrary called for quiet and
announced a rehearsal. Goldfine
read his statement with lighls, but
no cameras.
A reporter shouted a question
about Goldline and Adams.
Sears was on his feet in a flash
"Don't talk. No talking. Not a
word," he advised his client.
The reporter persisted. "Don't
press. advised McCrary, still
hanging on to that smile.
The live reading followed, sev
eral times over. Reporters kept
trying. Sears kept objecting.
Finally a desperate reporter
asked. "Mr. Goldfinc. to what do
you attribute your rosy cheeks?
happily.
The newsmen bored in. Did he
walk as much as former Presi
dent Harry Truman?
"I walk faster." Goldfine said
Then the questioning got around
to Adams again and Sears went
back into action.
As Sears steered his client out
of the room, Goldfine told the hov
ering reporters: "You are all fine
gentlemen."
