Demos Set To Rip Nixon If Steel Prices Increase WASHINGTON (AP) - Con-! gressiunal Democrats poised to day to pounce on any steel price increase as a Nixon-approved con tribution to inflation. The discordant note of a pos sible price hike chilled some of the fanfare' of jubilant announce ments Monday that the steel dis pute had been settled on terms proposed by Vice President Rich ird M. Nixon and Secretary of La bor James P. Mitchell. Mitchell said he sees no need for an immediate steel price rise. Similarly, Chairmen Roger Blough of U.S. Steel Corp. and Joseph L. Block of Inland Steel said they plan no general price in crease in the immediate luturc. But Blough said competitive and other factors might compel a change later. With this possibility in mind, Sen. Estcs Kefauvcr (D-Tenn) served notice the Senate Antitrust and Monopoly subcommittee he heads will keep a sharp eye on any. price rises. The group previ ously has investigated steel pricing practices. I hope there will be no price increase to force the consumer to carry the load," Kefauver said.

No. 2, Jan. 0 PINGRKE, Idaho (AP) Health authorities prepared today to give hundreds of diphtheria inoculations as a result of an outbreak of the disease in this southeast Idaho farm community. Another case was confirmed Tuesday, bringing the number ol diphlhcria-slrickcn children to six. All are elementary school students here. State health authorities inocu lated 320 peop'e Tuesday. Dr. Vic tor Overholt, district health direc tor, said private physicians near here and in the nearby cities of I Blackfoot and Pocatello have ade quate vaccine supplies to meet the anticipated demand. U.S. Efforts Hit By Expert SALT LAKE CITY, Utah lAP) A private industry rocket expert says the United States is still not trying hard enough in the rocket race with the Soviet Union. Dr. Harold W. liitchcy, director of Thiokol Chemical Corp.'s rocket program, was asked at a news conference Tuesday when the So viet Union was ahead of the United States. He replied that the United States didn't start soon enough, "nor run fast enough" and "we are not run ning fust enough now." Steel magazine said price in creases arc inevitable. It esti mated the boost in steel-making costs at $16 a ton over the life of the new contract. It predicted increases will be made on a selec live basis, with the industry avoid ing across the board boosts. Blough himself estimated the new contract will cost the indus try "well over one billion dol lars." Because Nixon and Mitchell made the proposals finally ac cepted by the steel companies and the unions, Democrats are certain to try to tag the vice president and the cabinet member with the liability for any resulting rises in the cost of living index. Nixon has counted on his chair manship of the Eisenhower Cabin et Committee for Price Stability and Economic Growth as a post from which he could contend that he was taking effective steps to halt rising living costs. Other Democrats contended the administration should have acted as it did much earlier. Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass) an announced candidate for his parly's presidential nomination, said that "had the President seei fit to use more vigorously the pow ers of his office at an early date thousands of sleelworkers and their families would probably not have lost millions of dollars in wages through the protracted strike." Sen. Stuart Symington D-Mo) who is regarded as available for tlie presidential nomination, said if the Republican administration had heeded the advice of Demo crats and stepped into the bar gaining earlier "the loss of bil lions of dollars in wages, profits and production might have been avoided." Similar views were expressed by Sens. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont) and A. S. Mike Monroney (D- Okla). Sens., Kenneth B. Keating (R- NY), Alexander Wiley (R-Wis) and Winston L. Prouty (R-Vt) called in separate statements for a search for better methods of handling wage disputes in basic industries. But Sen. Barry Goldwatcr H- Ariz) said that "probably the greatest thing the settlement will produce will be no legislation." Oldest Senator Mulls Decision PROVIDENCE, K.I.

I World Religious Heads Lambast Anti-Semitism By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Religious leaders today voiced abhorrence at the global rash of anti-Jewish incidents. They called for firmer commitment to prin ciples of brotherly love among all men. The plea came from high-rank ing churchmen, both in this coun try and abroad. They described the widespread anti-Semitic acts as an offense to all faiths. There also were appeals for so cial measures and fuller educa tional efforts to erase vestiges of prejudice and racism, particular ly in Germany. "I regard the anti-Semitic in cidents as a disgrace for the en tiro German people," said Bishop Otto Dibelius, of Berlin, stalwart battler through the years against both nazism and communism He is titular head of Germany's Evangelical Lutheran Church, and his diocese spreads into both East and West zones. 'I can only appeal to Christ ianity in Germany to do every thing in its power to prevent such incidents in the future," he said. The spate of painted swastikas and Jew-denouncing slogans in public places began in Germany 14 days ago, and has since erup ted in Britain, the United States, South Africa, Italy, Australia, Norway and Austria. Archbishop Iakovos, head of the Greek Orthodox Church in North and South America, called the in cidents "symptoms of spiritual and moral uneasiness of our times." "I think that this situation should alarm us Christians all over the world," he said. "Instead of talking sometimes just to make headlines we must Work verv Conscipntinnslv nnri ro. sponsibly so that we may get back some oraer in our Christian think ing, in our Christian livinir and mir society throughout the world." Some relicious authorities saw spread of the activity in some in stances as mere imitative and ir rational vandalism, but considered it none the less serious. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake byterian minister and president of tne National Council of Churches. said that "some, of these things merely are another form of juven ile delinquency." "It appears to me tbvrn mnsi have been some, organization, al though there is a latent rapinl prejudice across the world that tends to imitate any such expres sions," Dr. Blake added. Dr. Blake said people of all faiths must see that there is not a "return to the public expres sions of racial hatred such as we had world wide during the .Hitler period." Bishop J. E. Lesslie Newbiein of London, executive secretary of :he International Missionary Cnim. eil, said some of the acts may reflect "the contagious effect of irresponsible mischief. In any case," he added, "thev are a reminder of the necessity for steady witness on the part of Christians to the reverence due to every human person." The Rev. Dr. F. Eppling Rein- artz, of New Rochelle, N.Y., tec rctary of the United Lutheran Church in America, called the inci dents anti-Christian as well as anti-Jewish. He said that the Christian's hope of salvation, focus of worship and the source of his highest motiva tions and authority is "the Jew, Jesus Christ." "Any malicious affront to the people from whom my Savior sprang, I count a dishonoring of his name and nature," he said. The head of the Methodist Church in Germany, Bishop Fried- rich Wunderlich, of Frankfurt, commented: "I can only say what every decent German says about thse anti-Semitic incidents: We are deeply worried and ashamed. "But I refuse to believe that this is an organized action and I am certain that the German peo ple has nothing to do with it." The c h u r c h's archdiocesan weekly in Boston, the Pilot, made this appeal: "Before all else we must express in plain Christian charity our solidarity with the Jewish community and demons trate that love that binds us to gether as members of the same human family." Although the incidents appear to be the work of "malcontents and ne'er-do-wells" the church publica-j lion added: "This may givt ui comfort, but it does not make asy the heart of the Jew who remem bers that people said the sam thing about the early Nazis and kept saying it in some cases until Dachau and Buchenwald were dis played before them." Rabbi Joachim Prinz, president of the American Jewish Congress, expressed belief that the world wide chain of incidents was "the work of an international conspiracy."
