SAW STONE On the Caribbean island of Bar bados, where there is no timber, most houses are built of coral limestone. Moist when taken from the quarry, the stone can be sawed like wood and hardens when it dries. Steel Tonnage Near Capacity PITTSBURGH (LTD - The na tion's steel furnaces, roaring back alter a record-smashing 116-day .'Hike shutdown, approached 90 per cent of capacity production today the ltith day of a Taft- Hartley 80-day cooling otf period. The American Iron and Steel Institute estimated the output of raw steel for the first two weeks of the Supreme Court back-to-work order at upwards of 3,533, 000 tons. Total steel tonnage poured from the furnaces was expected to reach 20 million tons by Jan. 20. the date when the strike by the 500,000 United Sleelworkers may be renewed under provisions of the Labor-Management Relations 'Taft-Hartley) Act. Steel experts said raw slcel pioduction for this week would approximate 2,400,000 tons, or roughly 90 per cent of the rated capacity of the nation's stcehnak- ing facilities. Output in the lasl week of the walkout was less than 330.000 tons, or, about 13 per cent of the furnaces rated output. With steelmoking booming, the "pipeline" to the finishing depart ment, which shape the steel into customer products, was idling Jones Hi Laughlin Steel Corp., the nation's fourth ranking producer estimated lhat within two to three weeks shipmcnls from its loading plallorms at Pittsburgh and Ali quippa, Pa., and Cleveland, Ohio, would be 90 per cent of the top rate. Both the steel companies and the workers were staging a race against time. The producers sought to pile up production for steel-starved customers, particu larly the automotive industry which was forced to layoff 227,000 workers because of material shortages. New Card Game Costs $200,000 To Vegas Hotel LAS VEGAS (UI'I) A Las Vegas hotel opened the first legal card game of baccarat in the United States Sunday and today it is just about $200,000 poorer. Sixteen players beat the Sands Hotel out of $251,000 in the first five hours the fast-moving game opened. Betting on each hand by each of 12 players ranged from a mini mum of $20 up to $1,500. Players lined up 10 to 15-deep all day to get a chance at the blackjack-like game, and the house slowly whittled its losses down to about $200,000 by the end of the first 24 hours. The loss was remincsccnt of the day the desert resort hotel opened in December, 1952. The house lost $215,000 the first night. But a Sands spokesman said: "We're not loo worried. We think tilings will average out by the end of the year." Biggest winner in the game was an unidentified Texan who pocket ed $172,000. A woman who gave her name as Marie Graguaud of Paris also was among the big win ners. A hotel spokesman said word of the winning streak by players spread up and down Ihc street and drew natives and tourists alike into the hotel to get a crack at Hie new game. There were an estimated 70 gamblers still waiting to get a shot at the game at midnight. Singer Frank Sinatra, part own er of the hotel, was credited with getting the game brought here afler having seen it played in France. The game which was originat ed in Greece is played by 12 players, a house dealer and a house banker Willi six to eight decks of cards. The dealer inserts the cards into a mechanical con trivancc and each player pulls out his own cards seeking a winning total of eight or nine.

There are lots of advantages to using dogs as police companions They are swill and silent trackers, liercc lighters and there are no squawks about the hours and pay- But despite all these positive virtues, police experts who have worked with dogs find their chief asset is psychological: People arc generally afraid of a big, power- till dog, especially when they know he's trained in police work One of the most successful canine cop operations is in Balti more, where the program has been in use three years.

Drop Explained By Researcher WASHINGTON (UPI) A farm researcher has an explana tion for the reason that food prices arc rising while farm in come is dropping. W. E. Hamilton, research direc lor for - (he American Farm Bureau Federation, said in a re port to the National Planning Association Sunday that most re tail food prices depend not so much upon farm prices but on the costs of the middleman. He said that costs for hauling, processing, packaging and selling have had a persistent tendency to rise in recent years "regardless of whether farm prices were ris ing or falling." Hamilton said many of the mid dleman's marketing costs, "such as non-farm supplies, taxes and union wage scales are largely in dependent of farm prices." As a result, he said, a drop in farm prices "can be, and often offset by increases in other costs." SHOOTING CHAMP KILLED WAUPACA, Wis.

"We've found lhat one dog and an officer can handle four or live punks," says Lt. John Biemiller, who heads Baltimore's K-9 Corps, as it's called. The dogs are trained with the officer they work with and live in his home. The cost for food, equipment and care runs about $200 a year for each dog. Officials of many cities have watched Bicmillcr's dogs put on a demonstration. Robert Mc Laughlin, a District of Columbia commissioner, came back and launched plans immediately for a similar program in Washington. McLaughlin has also studied the program in London, where dogs have been used with the tradition ally unarmed bobbies for years. Four Washington police officers are scheduled to go to London in February for a 14-week training period. Nearly all dogs used in police Aork are German shepherds the Rin Tin Tin type. Their size, agility and strength are the chief reasons for their selection, but they also appear to be more tem peramentally suited lo the work than other breeds.

MINN. 617 Main S3 Officer Urges Strike Fund McKEESPORT. Pa. (AP) - Donald C. Rarick, who in the past has found fault with United Steel workers' leadership, said today the AFL-CIO should set up a fund to assist steelworkers it tney strike again. Rarick gained prominence in 1957 when he unsuccessfully op posed USW President David J. McDonald's bid for reelection. He lso headed a dues protest com mittee that fought against an in crease in the USW membership dues. Rarick,- now president of the USW local at U.S. Steel Corp.'s lrvin Works in McKeesport, said he plans to write to George Meany, president of the AFL-CIO and recommended that a strike fund be formed immediately. "McDonald has my full support in the USW effort to win a new labor contract with the steel in dustry," Rarick said, referring to a 116-day strike that was halted Nov. 7 by a Taft-Hartley injunc tion. As conditions now stand there seems no other course but to re new the strike when the injunction expires Jan, 26," he added. "But the AFL-CIO should bear some of the burden and aid the steelwork ers if the strike is renewed." Rarick said he plans to ask Meany to make plans for es tablishment of a strike fund which would guarantee steelworkers some weekly income if the strike is renewed. "I think each international union hould contribute a lump sum to the fund and then assess mem bers a certain amount each month," he said. "Even the steelworkers who are back on Hie job while the injunc tinn is in effect should contribute to the fund." Rarick said the sleelworkers are engaged in a fight with the sleel industry that is sure to have some effect on the entire labor movement and "all of labor should lend a hand." Steelworkers who joined in the fight against a dues increase in 1956 have put those differences with the international officers aside, Rarick said, and are solid ly in back of the officers in the contract struggle. Rarick said his letter to Meany will be written as a steelworker and not as a leader of the pro test committee. He said he feels that McDonald has much to do and cannot think of everything. STEAL.
