,a,,os Constantine Brown.
A few months earlier there had
been an abortive attempt to unite
Austria and Germany economic
ally. The French became anxious
over this type of Anschluss and
retaliated by applying invisible
financial pressure.
President Hoover, while assur-
ing the country that there was no
serious danger of an economic
collapse in Central Europe, rushed
Secretary of State Stimson across
the Atlantic. Mr.. Stimson had
heart talks with all the
leaders of the European govern
ments and suggested a plan for a
moratorium on war debts in ex-
change for similar Allied action
with respect to reparations from
Germany.
Brought Rise of Hitler.
France paid lip service to the
American proposal. but before 1t
could be put into effect the banks
in Vienna and Berlin closed their
doors. The great European trag-
edy was on.
Two years later the great po-
litical repercussion of the crisis
occurred. Adolf Hitler became
Chancellor of Germany under the
aged President Won Hindenburg.
At Won Hindenburg's death he
took over the presidency and be-
came "Reichsfuehrer." In 1889 he
plunged the world into the most
devastating war history has
known.
The rearmament of the Reich,
the reoccupation Of the Rhine
land, the Anschluss with Austria
by means of military coercion, and
the dismemberment of Czechoslo-
vakia' all were accepted with no
more than mild protest by the
nations which in 1881 blindly had
brought on the economic collapse.
In this summer of 1949 we are
facing an even greater economic
and financial crisis, and although
it's causes are different, many OBJ
servers fear that its effect may be
similar.
Europe, which until recently
was f1attened by the hardships Of
the war and was fighting to get
on its feet, is being watched by
Moscow with even more eagerness
than it was watched by the Nazis
after German military might had
been restored.
The United States and Britain
and to a lesser extent France
and Italy-now are faced with
buyers market. They have in
dustrial and agricultural overpro-
duction which cannot easily be
disposed of in a world which has
shrunk economically as the result
Of the removal from 1t Of the Iron
Curtain countries.
Markets of East Denied.

Union 10 Turn Down
Inland Steel Pension
Plan as Inadequate
BY the Associotsd Press

PITTSBURGH. July "a Ma
tion-wide steel strike may begin
one week from today. although one
segment of the industry is ready
to go along partially on the C1O
United Steelworkers' demands for
a pension.
Inland Steel Corp. of Chicago,
which employs about $4,000.
opened the door on the pension
issue last night. The steelworkers
promptly closed it.
Philip Murray, president of both
the CIO and the SteelWorkerS'
didn't comment on 1nland's offer.
However, another union spokes-
man said the proposal was made
quate" and declared it will be
rejected Monday.
Mr.. Murray is believed willing
to go down the line on his demand
for pensions for the men who
make steel. He hasn't said what
amount he desires, but the spokes-
man who termed Inland's offer
inadequate said the union wants
$3.50 monthly pensions.
Murray Silent on Demands.
Mr.. Murray has maintained his
usual tight-lipped silence on just
how much of wage increase he
wants. His men have received
three wage boosts since the end of
World War II and now average
s1.65 hourly.
The unions contract talks have
been tied in knots by Big Steel's
fat refusal to discuss the pension
issue and grant wage increases.
Bethlehem Steel Corp, Wheel
ing Steel Corp. Youngstown Sheet
& Tube Co., and Crucible Steel
Co., of America have followed the
lead of United States Steel.
Bethlehem, which employs u.s.
900 United steelworkers in IA
plants, had this to say last night
after rejecting the unions pro-
posals:
Neither current business condi-
tions nor the current rates of pay
of the employees justify any in
crease In labor costs at this time.
Inland Makes Offer.
But Inland Steel offered a con-
tributory pension and welfare
plan. Company officials said 1t
would work like this:
$500 group life insurance plan,
plus other insurance benefits; a
matching of primary social Sc
curity benefits for workers with
20 or more years service up to
$50 a month, and payment of a
share of the cost of retirement
income for workers retiring at IS.
The company said under Its
social security proposal a m
social security proposal worker
with average earnings of $3,875
a year and entering the plan
at the age of 80 would retire
at 65 with a pension Of $163 a
month. That amount would in
clude social security benefits.
Joseph Jeneske. international
representative of the steelworkers,
said the proposal will be rejected
by the union at a conference Mon
day. Terming the plan made
quate, he said it would equal a
wage raise of less than one cent
an hour. The company contends
1t would cost $4,000, 900 q year. or
40 cents per employe-hour worked.

Keevis keiaudamas vilku ar mesku sule-

Perskyra tarp dienos ir nakties tiktai tenumane
nuo biciu gaudesio, sovose siuvanciu ar po me-

Todel visu pirmieji gyventojai paupiuose
tegalejo isikurti, jau del kelio, jau del mitalo,
kelio nesant upe ar upeu namus savo pasekti.
