was in proper fettle to launch
into the bigger and more demand
ing aria. Here, he showed
splendid breath control and the
feeling for a graceful line of
phrase while spinning his tone
with skill and mellowness.
In fact, his sense of vocal style
and the way to infuse 1t with feel
ing operated throughout his sew
eral selections. They were definite
ly for easy, general appeal in the
second half of the program where
he presented Scott's The Jas
mine Door," Herbert's Thine
Alone" and the "Serenade" from
Romberg's THE Student Prince" "
Plenty of ringing, long held high
notes, sentiment and rhythms, as
expressed with his fine strong
voice, set off the excitement. If
some of the big climaxes were
somewhat forced and the voice it
self had to be watched for con-
tinued good placement, no one
cared. 1t was singing Of finish,
the numbers were familiar and the
artist we'll liked. There was no
question that Mr.. Peerce would be
allowed to depart after the printed
list was run through. Encore af-
ter encore followed of such variety
as Herbert's I'm Falling in Love

to move some divisions to combat
areas upon short notice in the
event of mobilization. A very
thorough study should be initiated
to the end that all of its training
is timely and effective, little or
none of its time wasted in non-
essentials.
The time to mobilize that the
United States has had in the past
no longer can be counted on, Gen.
Bradley said.
If it becomes necessary to pro-
ject our power overseas" he said,
"the first troops to go over will Of
course be the Regular armed
forces then on active duty. but
those Immediately following will
have to be obtained, in large part,

1T is up to you, you members

This was the opinion of dele

tion of the Institute of Traffic
Engineers which ended yesterday
after a tour of District traffic
projects and bridges.
Before the tour, the delegates
were told in detail Of what they

of the highway transport research
branch of the Bureau of Public
Roads.

which was resolved by Congress
Congress settled the exact
bridge location and design but the
bridge itself wasn't settled. It is

Talk Collapse Hits
West Berlin RaiImen
By the Assoeiotad Prexa

BERLIN, Sept. 29.-The break
down of four-power Berlin talks
cost $4,000 West Berlin Railway
men one third of their salary to-
day.
They promptly began talking
about a showdown strike. but prom
ised to avoid complete walkout.
American, British and French
commandants announced late yes
terday they had broken off dis
cussions with Russia because of
Soviet failure to keep its agree
ments on operation Of the city's
railway system.
They accused Russia of break
ing its promise to pay all of West
Berlin railway wages in West
marks, instead Of East marks
worth a fraction as much. Under
settlement which ended a six
week strike last summer, the So
viet-contr oiled railway has been
paying go per cent of the West
Berlin salaries in West marks. The
three allies have been financing
the conversion, at equal value, OF
the 40 per cent paid in the cheaper
East marks.
West Berlin railroaders found
themselves earning about a third
less. Forty per cent OF the pay re-
manned in East marks, which they
must either spend in Soviet Berlin
or trade with a money changer for
West marks at a ve-to-one rate.

dent Truman would step into the
picture and ask for a fourth strike
postponement.
Big steel has offered to pay up
to 6 cents an hour per man for
pensions and 4 cents an hour
for insurance-with employees pay
ing remaining costs of the pro-
gram.
The company also asked the
union to agree to a years con-
tract extension to April 80, 1851.
The present contract, which ex-
pires next April 80. was reopened
this year on rates of pay" and
insurance.
BENJAMIN F.. FairleSs, president
LOT the United States Steel Corp,
said the corporation suggested a
Joint study Of pensions before
March l. 1850. After that date
negotiations could begin as to the
form and shape of a pension pro-
gram.
Although Mr.. Murray didn't
reply formally to Big Steel's
offer, he said in a statement the
industry must follow the presi-
dental boards recommendations
for company financed pensions
and insurance. The board recon-
mended a 10-cent hourly package
with industry picking up the
entire tab.
Situation Is Reviewed.
In nutshell, this is the situa-
ton:
The board recommended indus
try pay the entire cost of insur-
ance, but should be limited to a
maximum of about $50 a year per
employe-or cents an hour based
on a 2,000-hour work year.
Details would be worked out by
bargaining.
Big Steel said it would settle the
insurance issue this way: The COM
pany would pay $50 a month per
Iemploye and workers would pay
So to SO month. That would be
about 312 cents per hour for the
company and 112 to cents for
workers. The workers would get
term life insurance before retire.
ment in an amount about equal
to normal earnings and 81 900 after
retirement: accident and sick in
surance of $26 a week for 26
weeks; hospital expenses for 81
days and surgical expenses up to
$160.
The board had this recommen-
dation on pensions: Employees
wouldn't pay anything. Companies
would pay 6 cents per man-hour.
The board figured such a system,
worked in with social security,
would give workers $100 a month
at age IS.
United States Steel made no
mention of the probable size of
the pension. 1t suggested a con-
tributory pension plan with the
company sharing in the cost up to
6 cents an hour. Employees would
chip in an undetermined amount.
