Mr.. Calhoun is gunless at the

Drop in Steel Output
No Recession Sian,
FairIess Declares
BY the Assoeioted Press

DETROIT, Sept. 21-Benja-
min F. Fairless, board chairman
Of United States Steel Corp,
disagreed today with the 'proph-
cts of pessimism" who foresee a
recession on the basis of de-
clining steel production.
Mr.. Fairless. in a speech pre-
pared for delivery before the
Economic Club of Detroit, said
he expects that last months
steel operating rate of 95 per
cent of capacity probably will
remain in that general neigh
borhood for the rest of the year.
He agreed that for many
months steel was operating at
100 per cent of capacity or bet
ter, but accused the pessimistic
forecasters of losing "all sense
of proportion" in predicting a
recession because of falling steel
output.
Record Year Indicated.
"The American steel industry
will produce. and will sell, more
steel this year than ever before.
at any time in its history" Mr.
FairleSs said. I'm fact, present
indications are that it will make
about seven million tons more
steel than it made in the all
time record year of 1851"
Steel plants, he said, were
never intended to run regularly
at 100 per cent capacity. The
industry, he said, has always
maintained substantial re-
serve of capacity for use in
times of national emergency.
Even during the wartime
years of 1941 to 1945-when we
were breaking our necks to pro-
duce every pound of steel that
we could, and when the plants
of United States Steel alone were
outproducing all the Axis ma
tlonS put together-the average
operating rate for the industry
as a whole was just 81 per cent
of capacity-or almost exactly
what it was. last month";" he
added.
Capacity Was Smaller.
Mr.. Fairless stressed that the
steel industry's total capacity
then was much smaller than it
is today: and even if the operat-
ing rate were to drop as low as
81 per cent I'VE would still be
producing, and selling, more
steel than we did all through
those frenized years of World
War II.
For the first time in 20 years,
the Washington trend toward
socialism has been reversed"
Mr.. FairleSs said.
He added that 1--WE have an
honest dollar again-a dollar
that will buy almost exactly as
much today as it did II months
ago."

fortnight afterward The Star published
review of the important events of the year and
mentioned the Panama revolution, the Alaskan
boundary decision, the death of Pope Leo
XIII, the Iroquois Theater fire in Chicago and
trouble" between Russia and Japan as worthy
of remembrance, but did not refer to the
Wrights or their performance on the North
Carolina sand dunes.
Yet The Star was air-minded. 1t had
chronicled the experiments of DR.. Samuel p
Langley, DR.. Alexander Graham Bell and other
would-be navigators of the skies whose efforts
had failed, and it subsequently was to devote
hundreds of pages of type and pictures to the
activities of the Wright brothers and their
rivals as near as Fort Myer and as distant as
Germany on one side of the globe and Australia
on the other.
The sketchy coverage of the Kitty Hawk
incident traced back to Wilbur's and Orville's
own modesty and caution. They themselves
underestimated their triumph. Before them
lay the gruelling task OF perfecting their
machine Neither man lived to see the ultimate
victory accomplished Even now, SO years after

Atomic Good Sense

The President was on eminently sound
ground when he told his press conference ne
believed % that we should share atomic intor-
nation and weapons with our allies whenever
it is in the interests of the United States to do
so, and (2) that he will do everything he can to
promote the peaceful uses OF atomic energy
even if the Soviet Union should reject his pro-
posal for pooling fashionable material.
It does not follow, of course, that Congress
will surely enact the necessary changes in the
Atomic Energy Act merely because the position
which the President takes is a sound one. There
have already been misguided rumblings from
congressional sources about new "give-away"
programs, and the President may be in for
battle on this score.
His position in such a battle however,
would be very strong. If the American people
believe-and if any one can persuade them,
General Eisenhower is the man-that our real
interests would be served by sharing atomic
weapons and by promoting the peaceful appli-
cations of atomic energy, 1t is going to be
extremely difficult for Congress to turn down
such proposals as the President may submit.

THANK you, SIR" said Templeton
Jones for the compliment, and eyes,
sir for the question.
ii will recite it for you." said the
man brushing aside Jones personal
knowledge as if it did not exist.
Out rolled the beautiful phrases, in
fairly good tone of voice.
It was beautiful, but out of place. just
as that summer day when group of
young girls going to Sunday school
picnic boarded Jones bus.
They were no sooner seated than
they began to sing the hymns of the
church
The songs were beautiful, the girls
lovely, but the place was no place for
such music.
II was. Jones thought, just out Of
place. an old phrase, and a good one.
There is time and a place for
everything, according to Proverbs, and
cei eitainly crowded bus is no place for
the wonderful old hymns of the church.
People riding public vehicles are so
used to peace and quiet, happy time
with their own thoughts, that they sell

there is, they look around at each
othc. in shame-faced sort of way.

Fairfax Keeps Step

In voting for an unprecedented $40 million
bond issue to finance a countrywide sewerage
system, Fairfax County has shown a deter
mination to keep step with sanitation progress
in nearby Virginia. It's present crazy quilt of
separate community systems and septic tanks,
many of the latter dangerously overloaded,
has put the county at disadvantage in this
era of expanding residential and industrial
development across the Potomac River. Only
an integrated sewerage network of the type
planned by county engineers could meet the
threat to public safety and prosperous growth
inherent in inadequate sanitation facilities.
AS was expected the rural sections of the
county were outvoted by the urbanized sections
In the latter areas the need for better sewerage
had become acute with the continued con-
struction of homes, apartments and shopping
centerS But the rural residents also will
benefit from the improvement program through
improved property values and better health
conditions. And only those who use the new
sewers will pay for them, under the self
hquidating plan for paying off the heavy loan.
The integrated sewerage program is logical
corollary of the county's recent decision to join
with Alexandria in building joint sewage
disposal facilities.

McCurthy Refuses to Answer

Senator Mccarthy recently appeared
on the TV program, american Forum"
In answer to question from the
audience he said, in substance, that
any person who invokes the fifth
amendment and refuses to answer
questions put to him by congressional
committee, condemns himself by his
very refusal. He emphatically ex-
pressed the view that, by resorting to
silence, such man establishes his
own guilt.
On this point the Senator may be
on solid ground. At any rate, it is a
view taken by many Americans.
However, shortly after the Senator
had expressed himself, another men,
ber of the studio audience asked him
question about the report made by
Senate subcommittee concerning,
among other things, certain of his
financial transactions that were alleged
to have been illegal. Now, on the
strength of what the Senator had pre-
viously said about those who refuse to
answer questions implying wrongdoing
and who take refuge in silence, one
would have thought that he would have
felt impelled to attempt some sort of
an answer. But, did he? Alas. no!
The Senator became indignant, NUT
tered something about Smear and
dismissed the question. The Senator
very handily disposed Of the matter,
but he left the impression that, meas
ured by his own criterion, he stood as
guilty, by his refusal to answer the
question, as the many on whom he has
so arbitrarily pronounced judgment.

Fifty Years After Kitty Hawk

Half a century ago tonight United Breth-
rem bishop walked into the Associated Press
bureau in Dayton, Ohio, and handed the cor
respondent on duty a telegram from Kitty
Hawk, North Carolina, reading: Success four
flights Thursday morning all against 81 mile

With only two minor errors, the message
was accurate. What had happened was that the
Wright brothers had taught their flying

q gadget heavier than air had risen from the
ground by it's own dynamic force-and car
ried a passenger. Five persons witnessed this
Launching of humanity into new dimension
and new age" Not even the Wrights them
selves realized the definitive significance OF
their achievement. Months later those bicycle
boys from Dayton" announced that they were
willing to sell "all their inventions for 100000
Nobody accepted the offer, and they finally
withdrew it.
Meanwhile, the Associated Press story of
December II, 1903 now universally regarded as
"the biggest kind of news" went out to several

Letters to The Star,

courageously won. her independence
with so much sacrifice. Could the
United States have viewed with indif-
ference or as a friendly act any aid
irN arms to her neighbor which had
been talking of "jehad" (holy war;
against the United States? The answer
is, am sure. a positive NO" 1t is no
wonder, therefore, that all the influen-
tial and normally pro-American and
pro-Western Indian newspapers like
the Times of India and HinduStan
Times have come out boldly predicting
disastrous consequences of such a
military alliance.
I have not the least doubt, therefore,
that the proposed military alliance be-
tween Pakistan and the United States
will benefit none except the Com
munists. Since I cannot believe that
the object of the United States is to
ALLEVIATE India from the free world
and weaken the forces of democracy
in Asia, it is my firm conviction that
Washington would do well to recon-
slider the far-reaching consequences of
the proposed military alliance.

After ALL a quiet peaceful trip is

Disturbances, on public vehicles, are

Jones recalled that time the old lady

Now, there is nothing unusual about
some one getting on a bus with an
umbrella on rainy day.
The only difference was that this
lady kept her umbrella up after she
