Find Frozen Negro Woman Who May Still Survive

CHICAGO, R-A young wo- man, found frozen stiff with a body temperature aboue 34 de- grees below normal, today was given a chance to survive. But doctors said she may lose both arms and;
 Physicians at Michael Reese hospital said medical history probably does not show a case where person with such a low body temperature-64 degrees lived to tell about it.
 Mrs. Dorothy Mae Stevens, g, Negro was found yesterday morning lying beside south side apartment building in sub-zero weather.
 A hospital spokesman said it will probably be four or five days before it can be determined whe- ther she will live, or whether her frozen limbs must be cut off.
 Today, 26 hours after she was found, the woman's temperature had climbed to 100. The normal is 98.6.
 Her pulse was 100, within the normal range. When first brought to the hospital, it was 12 beats a minute.
 Scores of physicians visited the patient to observe her reactions.
 "It's fantastic that she should still be alive," said Harold Lauf- man, staff surgeon and assistant professor of surgery at Northwest ern University.
 Kaufman said there were only two cases of hypothermia (reduc- ton of bodily t emperature) on record which have recovered, and in those cases temperatures went no lower than 75 degrees.

At the same time, Israel has
greatly expanded its productive
capacities in agriculture and in

further expansion to meet the call

On its borders, Israel's adver-

during the past year, intensified
their boycott and disturbed the
armistice system, even challeng-

as the draining of the Huleh

the duties of unremitting vigil

Congress Urged 10 Fit
Ceilings Below Parity

Chairman O'Mahoney said yes
terday he wants the Senate House
Economic Committee to recon-
mend legislation allowing farm
commodity price ceilings to be
fixed at below parity.
Senator O'Mahoney praised the
address by Mobilization Director
Charles E. Wilson, Friday in which
Mr.. Wilson hinted that the Ad-
ministration will call on Congress
to ease the farm price protection
under present law.
But while favoring below-parity
price ceilings, the Wyoming Sena-
tor said they should be accom-
panied by safeguards for the farm
against further increases in the
cost Of products he must buy.
Farm leaders have warned that
any move to establish lower price
ceilings on agricultural commodi-
ties will tend to discourage farm
ers in producing the bumper crops
the Government wants as part Of
the about mobilization program.

worker productivity bonuses called
for in contract.
However, such so-called fringe
increases as pensions and welfare
funds if granted in the future also
would be charged against the 10
per cent maximum. Fringe ad-
justments of the past year would
not be counted.
The changes asked by labor, tc
which Mr.. Johnston is said tc
have agreed substantially, would
permit approval of living cost es-
calaeor clauses. annual productiv-

President Truman was said to
have told the union chiefs that he
does not think existing contracts
should be disturbed.
Want "Inequities" Corrected.
Welfare funds and pensions also
would be exempt from control.
The 10 per cent idea would be
retained but provision would be
made for taking care of workers
who had missed a round of wage
increases.
For example If union failed TO
get a wage increase In 1949, but

claims that is a hardship on the
workers whose pay has Jagged.
They want the formula changed
to correct this "inequity." 1t
might be done by changing the
base date Of the formula from
January Is last year to say mid
June.
On the issue Of approving the
"sanctity" Of labor contracts. 1t
was said that Mr.. Johnston was in
peculiar position. He has been
discussing with Agriculture Secre-
;ary Brannan the possibility of
asking Congress to modify parity
provisions protecting the purchas-
ing power Of farmers. Parity. il,
effect. is a living cost escalator
clause for farmers.
IUE Threatens Strike.
The change would be desirable
from the standpoint of Tightening
controls over food prices. But it
was pointed out that the parity
provision is tantamont to a COLI
tract between the Government and
the farmers.
The wage board proposal to
limit increases to 10 per cent in
cluding living cost adjustments
brought the threat of a strike
from the CIO international Union
OF Electrical Workers.
The IUE has an escalator clause
in a contract with the General
Electric Corp. under which about
$4,000 workers would be entitled
to a innocent per hour raise after
March Is. James B. Carey, the
union president, said that under
the proposed formula the work.
ers would lose about three cents
Of the increase.
Mr.. Carey said that his execu-
tive board had authorized the
taking of any necessary action to
retain the full nine cents. He
pointed out that the union struck
last fall to win the contract.
Again Crticizes Wilson.
The IUE board also accused GE
of refusing to cooperate in a plan
designed to hold down unemploy-
ment in the shift from civilian to
defense production.
Fortunately" Mr.. Carey said,
"the attitude Of GE does not re-
fleet the position Of industry as q
whole or other corporations In the
electrical industry. But 1t is sipai-
lar to the program to exclude labor
from participating In the mobili-
