passing form of entertainment appealing to the cupidty and gambling instincts of mass humanity If the broadcasting industry is to continue form of private enterprise it must provide the kind of insruc tion and entertainment that ustfies belief in the superiority of the American system of private ship and broadcasng facilities Otherwise an aroused public will eventually demand increasingly drastic regulatory action and possibly Government supersession of private companies.
 The steady deterioration of broadcastng programs in recent years resulting from the vogue the give ways has dsgusted millions of Americans. But the hope of getting something for nothing, next to nothing has irresistible lure for other millions who

 Ching's top assistant, William Margolis, broke in with the obser- vation: "Yes, the reporters for Pravda will be having wonderful time the next few weeks if our steel plants close down"
 At one point Murray unloosed a caustic blast-which almost equal ed John L. Lewis arcasm-against U. s. Steel's publicity campaign. He reminded Hairless that U. s. Steel had spent several hundred thousand dollars on advertisements in the morning paper and wanted to know what he meant by dissl- pating the assets of his corporation in such a wanton manner.
 "It would have been far better to use the money to pay pensions" :" chided Murray, rather than pull the wool over the publics eyes"

WOMEN ASSAILS POLYGAMY

BANGKOK-tR-How can Thai (Siamese) women be considered as having equality with men when the males are permitted to have more than one wife? So asked Nang Nantaka Suprabhatanand, former chairman of the Women's Law Association, amid the cheers of the Thai Women's Association.
 The woman attorney said Thai women legally have equal rights but nature and tradition initiate against attainment of this equal ity. She said it probably would be impossible to pass a law to change the marital situation, but it was fortunate that the cost of liv- ing these days obstructs most men from having more than one wife.
 The law recognizes three types of Thai wives: legally registered, semi wife and servant wife. Women have the right of divorce, she comment ed, but she did not favor use of this legal weapon except in ex- treme cases. Nang Nantaka also criticised the law that gives the husband power to handle his wife's property. She said women who had their own careers outside the home should be allowed to manage their own property.

U. S. sTEEL's POSITION

John Stephens, vice president of U. s. Steel in charge of labor re- lations, did much of the talking for the steel executives For many years Stephens has been quite friendly with Murray and leaders of the Steelworkers Union, but lately relations have been strained.
 Stephens charges that Murray agreed last year not to raise the issue of increased wages this year Murray in turn is indignant over the fact that the rooms in which negotiation were held on a previous occasion were wired with hidden microphones, and now steel execu- tives allude to statements which were secretly recorded.
 As negotiations opened this week, Stephens bluntly informed Media tor Ching and Phil Murray that the en-cents-an-h increase for pensions and social-security bene- fits recommended by the White House fact-finding board was out of the question.
 Stephens reiterated that the company was prepared to offer four cents an hour toward workmen's pensions-provided the steelworkers themselves contributed an addition al two cents-but would go no further. Non-contributory pensions borne entirely by management were too great a tax on industry and eventually on the consuming pub lie, the Steel spokesman declared.
 You never know where they're going to stop said Stephens. "The coal industry has had a bitter ex- perience along this line with John L. Lewis. Lewis started demanding and getting five-cents-a-ton royal ty for the miners welfare fund
 Then he got 10 cents, then 20 cents and now he is reported to be demanding 40 cents from the coal operators"
 Ching replied that he could not understand this reasoning The fact-finding proposal for 10 cents was fair to both sides and had been made after thorough study by conscientious men who were thinking of the national interest.

Cockeyed Spending

(Carrolton, Mo. Republican Record)
 And believe it fact that many Americans have given up hope of salvaging much out of the wreck left by the New Deal the Square Deal and the Fair Deal. With the cockeyed legislation that has been crammed down the threats of the public and the sauanderng of and the billions of dol lars of debts, waste and inefficiency rampant and every son of a-gun looking for and expecting some thing for nothing it is no wonder that hope is fast vanishing
 America needs good awakening, but 1t IS our propresy that it will take major disaster to bring if about Not until then will we look for return of many of lost frontiers, return to sanity ana nation that has last realized it can not spend itself into perpetual prosperity.

MELLON GIVES ORDERS

Murray also criticized Adm. Ben Moreel, former chief of Navy Sup ply, now head of the Jones. and Laughlin Steel Company, and hith- erto friendly toward the steelwork- CTS. Moreel had appeared ready to accept the fact finding boards recommendations, but, just before the negotiations began, Moreel was reported to have received instruc- tions from the Mellon interests in Pittsburgh, who control Jones and Laughlin, to backtrack. Murray, therefore, accused Moreel of vacil- lating, not being free man, and he quoted statements by the Ad- miral indicating his earlier willing ness to accept.
 Murray asked Moreel point blank why he didn't accept the fact finding commentators.
 The Admiral, who had a fine war record, claimed Murray had not quoted him correctly.
 After these fireworks, Mediator Ching decided that separate meet ings might be more conducive to harmony and went into a series of huddles, first with union leaders, then with the steel executives. They got nowhere. But the negotiations made one point reasonably clear: The steel industry had decided that any settlement must come under the Taft Hartley Act, and that to bring this about the industry was quite willing accept a strike

HEDGES RECEIVES NEW DICTIONARY
 FOR USE OF ESD

Copies of a new ana expanded edition of the Dictionary of Occu- pational Titles which contains ti- ties and definitions of jobs in the newer industries in the American economy as well as the older ones, have been distributed to all local offices of the Employment Security Commission of Alaska, it was an- nounced today by A. A. Hedges, Director of the Employment Se- curity Division.
 The new version of the Diction- ary of Occupational Titles contains approximately 22,000 definitions of common and uncommon occupa- tions and more than 40,000 differ ent titles by which these occupa- tions are known. The jobs with which at least 85 per cent of the American economy are concerned are defined in the new edition.
 "The new edition succeeds the one originally compiled and pro- duced by the United States Elm ployment Service in 1889 which has been used ever since by the employment service in its day-to- day job of matching workers and iobs," MT. Hedges said.
 Because of wider coverage and  more specific definitions and titles, the new Dictionary will facilitate the work of employment service local offices. IL will be used in cod ing employers job openings and classifying them, in coding job ap- plicants' occupational experience, and in reporting current labor mar ket information. In short, the new Dictionary provides what amounts to universal occupational lan- guage and something that is vitally necessary in employment service work.
 "The importance of the Diction- ary is illustrated by the fact that it will be used not only by the To- cal offices of the Alaska Territorial employment service, but by all To- cal employment offices throughout the country and by various other government agencies, including the armed services and the Veterans Administration, by employers, and by schools and colleges"

RUSSIA WATCHES STEEL

"But this is more than a national issue" Ching emphasized Tt has very serious international implica- tions. A steel strike at this time would be disastrous, not only to our own economy, but to the program we have undertaken to insure world peace.
 You all know what has happen ed in Britain, and we cannot afford to allow anything to happen to our own economy ii we are to continue to help other ward off the threat of Communism. A steel strike at this time would be the greatest

stating that we understood it to mean that there would be no moral or legal obligation upon us to ac- cept any recommendation which the board might make .'
 It is dangerous in country such as ours to ignore the law, for the President or any other official to function by whim or to play politics with the nations economy. Nor should the President appoint boards which are to make recommendations which the Presi- dent himself says need not be ac- cepted. It seems such waste of time.

TWO SUSPECTS IN RICE ATTACK CASE
 HELD ON PA5ADENA

Two men who may have been the sailors who attacked and robbed Robert Rice on the Douglas high way about midnight Thursday are being held as suspects in the case, according tc a radicgram received by US. Marshal William T. Ma honey Saturday from Capt. James R. Pahl, commanding officer ot the cruiser Pasadena.
 The names of the men were not disclosed. The message indicated that they were being held as sus- poets only.
 Because one of the attack wea- pons, rusty exhaust pipe on which was found hair and blood, had been thrown into a creek, it is doubtful, ccording to Deputy Marshal Sid Thompson, that much will be disclosed as far as finger prints are concerned that might identify the attackers, though all of the attacks weapons are being sent to the FBI laboratory for examination.
