PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 6.-The
United Steel Workers of America
(CIO), which won the first in
dustry- wide wage increase under
the national wage stabilization
program, was reported ready to-
day for an attempt to crack the
Little Steel" formula 1t helped
establish.
While delegates to the CIO Ma
tional Convention scattered to their
homes, President Philip Murray,
who also heads the steelworkers
union, remained behind to take part
In a meeting of the SteelWorkers
Executive Committee Monday.

gram AS "a national hodge-podge, -
Mr.. Murray said he wouldn't care to
comment before Monday" on re-
ports that new wage demands would
be presented.
Want Scent Raise.
Other convention sources. how
ever, went so far as to predict that
the SteelWorkerS, whose wage in
crease in July, 1912, established a
national standard, would seek a fiat
increase of Is cents an hour, with
living costs and the coal mine wage
raise as main arguments.
The SteelWOrkerS sought a $l-a-
day raise in 1912 for 10000 en-
ployes of Bethlehem. Youngstown
Sheet and Tube, Inland and Repub-
lie Steel Cos.
1t was in deciding that case that
the War Labor Board evolved what
became known as the Little Steel"
formula-a ceiling IS per cent above
levels OF January l, l941, to provide
"an end to the tragic race between
wages and prices
And that fOrmula-Which gave
the SteelWorkers an additional "A

NO Accord in Administration"
Mr.. Murray, however, told the
CIO convention in accepting a
fourth term as its president yester-
day that there has been no accord
in the administration concerning
wage stabiization"
This has been evidenced" he de-
clared, by pronouncementS made
by members Of the Cabinet and bv
statements attributed to various
agencies of the Federal Govern
ment"
Blaming Congress for Opposing

tering "a So-called national wage
stabilization policy by the Federal
Government has been a national

CHESTER, Pa, Nov. 6.-Victor
Andreolt, life-term convict who
escaped from Eastern Peniten-
tiary IL days ago, was shot to
death today in a gun battle with
pennsylvania State motor police
who surprised him at breakfast
in a downtown restaurant.
The 27-year-old fugitive had
boaSted he would never be taken
alive.
Andreoli, who killed policeman
In a holdup near Wilkes-Barre.
Pa, six years ago, was killed in,
stantly by four bullets from the
pistols of three State policemen who
closed in on him as he huddled
over his food at a lunch counter.
Both His Shots Missed.
He fired two shots-and both
missed.
During his escape he boasted:
The first cop that lays a hand on
me dies"
AS the gunfire burst out sud-
denly, other patrons ducked under
tables and scurried to cover in shell
tered corners. Tables were over
turned and customers gasped in
fear.
The three policemen had entered
the restaurant by coincidence and
at hrst failed to recognize the
fugitive.
A widespread search for him
turned to Chester yesterday after
one of his former fellow prison
inmates reported recognizing him
on street here.
Andreoli fed the penitentiary by
hiding in the rear OF an outgoing
truck
Threatened ChiId's Life.
Several hours later he turned up
at the Philadelphia home of Anthony
w. Celia, an acquaintance. He held
knife against the throat of Cella's
6-year-old daughter and threatened
10 kill her unless he was given
clothes to replace his prison garb.
Then, still threatening the child,
Andreoli forced mother, daughter
and father into the family automo-
bile. Celia drove several blocks
While Andreoli changed his clothing.
Then Andreoli stepped from the car
at business intersection and disap-
peared.
1t was during his ride with the
Cellas that he boasted he would die
before recapture and that anv DO
Aceman attempting to apprehend
him would be killed. The police
were unable TO say where he OBJ
tanned a gun.

the people are not satisfied with
the way the bureaucrats are bunQ-

Behind the foreign News
Moscow Pocts Show Russia
Has Won Worlds Confidence

the Soviet grasp of the doctrine of
world revolution.
During the summer the Soviet
government erased another source
OF outside objection by giving formal
recognition to the rights of Russian
inhabitants TO attach themselves to
an organized religion. The MARKHAM
dogma that religion was popular
| opium which was embraced bv the
November revolutionaries, repelled
millions of persons in other lands.
The Soviet government on Sep
tember 90 made plain its desire to
maintain good relations with the
United States and its other allies.
Andrei Gromyko, the new Soviet
Ambassador, presented his creden-
tials to President Roosevelt on that
day and expressed the hope the
United States and Russia would re-
main attached in peace AS they are
in war.
Without Russian inclusion in the
concert of nations born in the Mos
cow declarations, an orderly search
for basis of peace would have
been impossible. All nations would
have been forced to be prepared
for trouble with Russia. With Rus
sia as one Of its pillars. peace will
rest on firm foundations.
All Problems Not Solved.
Though the declaration regard
ing Italy, the revolutionary Rus
slams suggest that they will not
seek to force their extreme system
upon other nations. When Russia
last participated in a concert of ma
tlons, after the Napoleonic Wars.
Car Alexander was a party to
scheme for forcing reactionary sys-
TENS upon lesser nations.
The Moscow declarations have
not solved all the problems respect
ing Russia. This Government has
not adjured its denunciatio of the
annexations of Estonia. Latvia and
Llthuania, and it has not indicated
its approval of the Russian claim
to Eastern Poland Those questions
rest on the principle of selfdeter-
mlnation, and Russian failure to
reconsider its position on them
might introduce a new uneasiness
into American public opinion about
the Soviet.
