Byrd Says University
Doesn't Discriminate

BY the Assoeiosed Press

University of Maryland officials
|Say they do not discriminate "be.
tcause Of religions persuasion, color
|creed or anything else" in assign
ment of dormitory rooms to wom-
len students.
The statement was made yester-
day to a Legislative Council Com
mittee investigating the univer-
lsity's failure to assign dormitory
accommodations to a group OF
lgirls from Forest Park High School
in Baltimore.
Byrd Pinpoints Issue.
DR.. H. c. Byrd, university presi-
dent, was first to pinpoint the issue
when he said there was no dis
termination of that kind"
Later, again without prompting
from any members of the COM
mittee, DR.. Byrd put this question
to Miss Adele H. Stamp, dean of
women:
"Has there been any discrimi-
nation in housing of students or
consideration of applications be-
cause Of religious persuasion,
color, creed or anything else?'
Absolutely not" replied Dean
Stamp.
The Legislative Council ap-
pointed a five-man investigating
committee to look into housing
policies at the University after it
had been reported that more than
80 Forest Park girls had been
warned in August there probably
would not be room for them in
campus dormitories.

graduates received such notices

demand for housing, without re-
gard to need of the future"
MIR. Hotter said the university
was seeking State funds now fol-

ton rights in any new jobs they
find within year after they lose
their positions. Also, they get
career priority in civil service
hiring lists.
Since quite few Government
employees, including some in the
National Production Authority, lost
their job shortly before August is,
the Commerce Department asked
the csc to include these employees
under the new regulations as well.
The commission refused, declar-
ing it had to have some cutoff
date and that, no matter what
date it selected. some employees
inevitably would be left out in the
cold. =.
Now, Commerce officials are still
hoping the commission changes
its mind. They will again request
the CSC to change the rules. It
lcertainly would be fair if some
thing could be worked out to help
these employees. AS they point
out. agencies are very reluctant to
hire them. since they would be
the first to be let out in future
Observation-Disclosures programs. Con-
sequently, agencies don't want to
hire persons that they can't count
on keeping too long.
The commissions new regula-
tions do contain a retroactive pro-
vision, but this applies only to en-
ployes who had lost their jobs and
acquired new Federal positions
within a year. These workers will
be entitled to all their retention
and seniority rights, provided they
were on the Federal payroll on
August IS. But the retroactive pro-
vision does not help employees who
were jobless at the time the order
went into effect on August Is.
NIXON AFTERMATH-There is
increasing talk on Capitol Hill and
in the House and Senate Civil
Service Committees of a new drive
next year to raise the pay Of Sen
ators and Representatives. It may
be considered at the same time
that legislation is taken up to raise
the pay of Federal employees.
Those supporting q congressional
pay raise say the Nixon case, right
or wrong, does point up the neces-

salaries SO that members OF the

RADIO o-TV Good Conduct Code
Hit as Curbs on Free Speech

The American Civil Liberties
Union today tagged as illegal a
radio-TV code intended to keep
suicides, sex and saucy songs of
the air.
Herbert Monte Levy, staff coun-
sci for the Civil Liberties Union,
told a House subcommittee that
the radio-TV code of good conduct
violated the right of freedom of
speech.
Mr.. Levy attacked the industry
for leaning over backward to "ab-
surd lengths" to keep provocative
material out Of its programs.
He favored beer commercials
with the explanation that this
subcommittee will never be able
to eliminate temptation"
While claiming that he never
had seen anything offensive on
TV, Mr.. Levy said it was up to in
dividual stations-not the industry
or networks-to tailor programs to
individual community tastes.
Selection Is Proposed.
He said Representative Klein,
Democrat, of New York, recently
told an open session of the SUBJ
committee joke that provoked
hearty laughter in the hearing
room, although "there are many
people who might well be offended
by that joke"
This, Mr.. Levy said, was an ex-
ample Of the need to select mate
rial for specific audiences rather
than on a national basis. Mr.. Klein
replied that he was amazed" at
the Civil Liberties Unions stand
on the basis of freedom of speech.

Steel Industry Head
Cites Strike Gains
BY the Asseeioted Press

WENTWORTH-BY THE SEA
N. H., Sept. 25.-Steel' industry
gains in the 1852 strike open the
way for the industry to take bet
ter control of its own labor rela-
tionS problems. without undue in
reference by the Government, -
Edward L. Ryerson Of Chicago,
chairman of Inland Steel Co., said
today.
He credited the steel companies
public relations policy with being
an important factor in the out
come.
Mr.. Ryerson said that although
he was discussing the strike from
the standpoint of a public rela-
tions conflict, actually, the steel
strike was a political conflict"
ut was brought about not by
Phil Murray (CIO and steel union
head but by President Truman" ="
Mr.. Ryerson said the industry's
policies in the strike won it public
understanding of economic bur-
|dens 80 the industry got a price
adjustment without public criti-
|cism. Compulsory unionism
was avoided. :. The union gained
nothing by dragging out the
strike. Congress became over
whelmingly sympathetic to the
problems Of the industry. It
clipped the wings Of the Wage
Board. I think demand will be
heard in the next Congress for
|curbs on labor's monopoly powers.
There is wide realization that the
Government bungling protracted
the prolonged dispute.
"And, as a result of the Supreme
Court decision. no union leader
henceforth can count on winning
extortionate demands by having
a friendly President seize and
operate an industry in his behalf" "

|South's S Mine Owners
Meet 10 Decide on
Lewis Demands
BY The Associaied Press

Southern soft coal mine owners
held a strategy meeting today to
determine a yes-or-no answer to
contract demands of President
John L. Lewis of the United Mine
Workers.
Joseph E. Moody. president of
the Southern Coal Producers As
sociation, met with the associa-
tion's 29-member Board of Direc-
tors to decide on a reply to MIR.
Lewis.
Mr.. Moody and four other mem
bers Of the Southern management
groups Executive Com mittee e
talked with Mr.. Lewis and union
committee for four hours yester-
day afternoon. Mr.. Lewis was be-
lieved to have outlined his
demands.
Meeting Scheduled Today.
Mr.. Lewis and Mr.. Moody had
another meeting scheduled at
O'Clock this afternoon at which
the SouthernerS position was to
be given Mr.. Lewis.
Mr.. Moody declined to tell news
men what Mr.. Lewis had de-
|manded as contract changes to
replace the agreement which ex-
|pires at midnight next Tuesday.
But Mr.. Lewis was expected to
insist on virtually the. same terms
from the Dixie owners as he has
already negotiated with Northern
owners.
The union agreement with
Northern mines calls for a $1.90
boost in the $16.35 basic daily
wage for miners, plus q 10-cent
increase in the 30-cent-a-ton roy
atty paid by owners into the
unions welfare fund for miners
pensions and other benefits.
Face Strike Threat.
| Southern operators repeatedly
were inclined to go along with MIR
Lewis terms. Mr.. Moody has said
the Southern group can't afford
the 40-cent-a-ton labor cost in
crease which the Northern con-
tract terms are estimated to cost.
But it appeared the choice was
either to take those terms or face
a certain strike in Southern mines
on October /.
Mr.. Lewis has called a meeting
Of his 200-man Union Policy Com
mittee for next Monday. The
committee win be called on to
ratify the new contract terms with
Northern owners, and do the same
for any Southern mines agree
ment or prepare for a Dixie strike.
