Relaxing for a few minutes on

Schneider said without qualifi-

A big, tall, light-haired chap,
Paul begged of comparing this
great Boston club specifically
with the great Yankee clubs he
aided by his ability to lay it in
there"

watched the infield practice,

Fifty Servicemen Back
Bill Providing Auto
For Every Amputee

An automobile for every amputee
veteran was urged by group of SO
|servicemen from Walter Reed Hos
pital yesterday in asking the House
Veterans Legislation Committee to
pass a bill authorizing a lump sum
of $500 for each man for that
purpose.
The spokesman for the group
Sergt. Gerald Gillerman, Brookline
Mass, replied to objections raised
last week by Gen. Omar N. Bradley
the Veterans Administrator, who
contended that such a grant of funds
would lead to the conclusion that
1t is a bonus" Sergt. Gillerman
declared that an automobile is a
necessity If the veteran who has lost
the power to walk without artificial
limbs is to make living and cope
with transportation problems.
He asked that the committee
headed by Representative Rankin
amend a pending measure so that
the Veterans Administration could
pay not more than $500 to ampu-
tees. Another witness, former
Representative William Miller of
Connecticut, who lost both legs in
the World War, indorsed the pro-
posal but said the Veterans Ad-
ministration should pass on the pur-
chase of each car, make up list of
approved equipment to facilitate
operation by amputees, and to re-
quire that such veterans have auto
mobile insurance.
Sergt. Gillerman said that the
object Of his group was TO see that
every amputee veteran-a total of
approximately 20,000-should be
enabled to buy a car. He said, how
ever, that the VA should give the
money rather than the automobile
itself and that the individual vet
eran if he bas already purchased a
car, could use the funds for addi-
tional physical rehabilitation pur-
poses.
Under questioning by committee
members, Sergt. Gillerman said he
spoke only for veterans who lost
their lower limbs but that he saw no
objection to extending the proposed
benefit to others who are paralyzed
or similarly incapacitated by other
service-connected wounds of disease

Of Tires Into Mexico
By the ISsoeioted Press

A high Justice Department official
disclosed yesterday that smugglers
are attempting to run tires into
Mexico from the United States for
sale at prices which he said range
up to 100 per cent above their cost
in this country.
The border patrol and the Gus
toms patrol have smashed one ring.
seized some members of two other
smuggling groups and captured
three trucks loaded with new tires
and tubes since March 18, this Off
cial told reporter. He added:
THE smuggling of automobile
and truck tires across the interna-
tional boundary started with the
beginning of tire rationing. But
then the tires we're slipped from
Mexico into Ell Paso, Tex, and other
United States cities. Now, the
scarcity and higher prices of tires
prevailing in Mexico have changed
the direction Of tire smuggling"

Sugar Price Hike Announced;
Butter and Meat May Be Next

Washington, Jan. 3O-The price of
sugar is going up slightly next
month.
But the increase of about seven
tenths of cent a pound-coupled
with possible minor rise in meat
prices and perhaps a 6-cent boost
for butter-may end the upward
swing in food costs for many months
to come.
The sugar hike, to become effec-
tive about Feb. 2, VII permit the
government to keep its promise of
higher prices for this years crop.
Acting Secretary of Agriculture j.
H. Hutson disclosed plans for the
price rise in letter to Congress
asking for authority to continue
some sugar subsidy payments be-
gun during the war.
Food officials already have indi-
Gated that it may be necessary to
grant packing concerns slight in
creases to enable them to meet
workers demands for higher wages.
And Secretary of Agriculture An
derson is urging a 6-cent pound in
crease in butter to ecourage greater
production.
President Truman, however, is ex-
pected to ask Congress to continue
for another year the federal food
subsidies inaugurated early in the
war.
If Congress goes along, this
should stabilize food costs and pre-
vent further rises.
The subsidy program has been
costing the government about ST.
798,000,000 a year.

\ Letter to the President
of the United States

raise such average straight-time pay TO SLY
an hour, placing such pay among the high
est today in all of American industry.
Under our offer of a IS cent increase, the
average weekly take-home pay of our steel
workers for forty-hour week would
amount to $516 assuming that no overtime
is involved. This figure is only $454 less
than the actual average weekly earnings of
these employees, including overtime in the
last full war year of 1914, when the average
work week was 46.1 hours. The difference
is really less, because we will undoubtedly
continue to have overtime in the future, just
as we have at the present time. In Novem-
Der, l945, overtime premiums to our steel
workers aggregated more than 81, 100000.
Such reduction of $4.54 in the weekly take
home pay is the natural consequence of a
shorter work week of forty hours, and there
fore one of lower production.
Much as we desire to avoid steel strike,
we cannot overlook the effect both on this
Corporation and on our customers and
American business in general, of the 18h
cent an hour wage increase, which you have
proposed. Such wage increase must result
in higher prices for steel than have pre-
ViouSly been proposed to us by the Govern
ment. Great financial harm would soon fol-
low for all users of steel who would be
obliged to pay higher prices for their steel,
higher wages to their employees and still
have the prices for their own products sub
ject to OPA control Such a high and un-
justified wage scale might we'll spell finan-
cial disaster for many of the smaller steel
companies and for a large number of steel
fabrlcators and professors. The nation needs
the output of these companies Increased
wages and increased prices which force
companies out of business can onlv result
in irreparable damage to the American
people.
In our judgment, it is distinctly in the
public interest to take into account the in
furious effect upon American industry of an
unjustified wage increase in the steel
industry.
After full and careful consideration of
your proposal, we have reached the conclu-
sion above stated
Respectfully yours,
Benjamin F. Fairless,
President, United States Steel Corporation

Pfc. Ora Thomas
Receiving Discharge

Naha. Okinawa-Pfc Ora Thomas,
husband of Mrs. Dolly Thomas,
South Olive, and son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Roy Thomas, Caldwell r. D. l,
recently left the 55Oth Quartermas-
ter company and is leaving Okinawa
for the United States soon to get
his discharge from the army. He was
redeployed to the Pacific direct from
Europe.
He entered the army at FIT. Ben
jamin Harrison, Ind, in June, 1912,
and has served with this company
for over three years. After leaving
the States late in 1914, Thomas
made an extended world tour with
his company. He sailed for Europe
on the worlds largest ship, Queen
Elizabeth, and arrived in Scotland.
Afterwards, in rapid succession, he
served in England, France, Belgium,
Holland, and Germany. While in
Holland and Germany he was at
tached to the Ninth u. S. army and
contributed to the success of the
company in being awarded the meri-
torious service unit plaque, "for su-
perior execution of duty in the per-
formance of exceptionally difficult
tasks"
On the 18th of July, Pfc Thomas
left Marseille, France, aboard an
army transport for the Pacific. He
sailed through the Panama Canal
and made stops at Eniwetok and the
Ulithi atoll enroute and at last, on
the 14th of September, landed on
Okinawa.
Pfc Thomas will never forget the
typhoon that washed him out of his
pup tent the day after arrival at
Okinawa, or the one which resulted
in such havoc on Oct. 9.
He is eligible to wear the ETC
ribbon with two campaign stars, the
Good Conduct medal, the American
Theater ribbon, the meritorious ser
vice award, the Asiatic-P Pacific Thea
ter ribbon, and World War IL Vic
tory medal.

AS you know, collective bargaining nego-
tiations with the Union broke down at the
White House yesterday afternoon, because
Mr. Murray then refused to bulge from his
position that a country wide steel strike
must take place, unless steel workers are
granted a general wage increase of 1912
cents an hour. Our offer of a wage increase
of Is cents an hour was again rejected by
the Union.
The Union threatened to go ahead with
its program for a national steel strike at
midnight next Sunday, although such
strike will be a clear violation of the no
strike provision contained in our labor con-
tracts with the Union, which continue by
their terms until October Is, 1916.
From the outset, we have recognized how
injurious steel strike will be to reconVer-
sion and to the economy of this whole coun-
try Most industries are dependent upon a
supply of steel for their continued opera
tons We have done everything reasonably
within our power to avert such a strike. If
a strike occurs, the responsibility rests with
the Union
When the Government at the eleventh
hour informed us about a week ago of its
willingness to sanction an increase in steel
ceiling prices we at once resumed collect
i've bargaining negotiations with the Union
Such price action by the Government was
recognition by it of the right of the steel in
dustry to receive price relief because of past
heavy increases in costs, something which
the steel industry for many months has un-
successfully sought to establish with OPA
I should like again to point out some per-
tinent facts relative to the wages of our
steel workers.
Since January, 1941, the average straight
time hourly pay, without overtime, of our
steel workers has increased more than the
1870 increase in the cost of living during
that PERIOD recently computed by Govern
ment authorities. Steel workers wages have
kept pace with increased living costs. Such
average straight-time pay in our steel-pro-
ducing subsidiaries was $1.14 an hour in
each of the months of September, October
and November 1945, excluding any overtime
premium and any amount for correction of
possible wage inequities. An increase of Is
cents in accordance with our offer, would
