Steel Output
Seen Favorable

CLEVELAND. April "a (P.-
Steelmakers. who had been pre-
dieting a sharp slump in demand
around midyear, now forecast
more favorable third quarter
prospects. steel" magazine said
today.
The Woodworking weekly re-
ported that steel buyers for the
automobile industry don't seem
to be faxed by the talk of a
strike"
They're ordering forward de-
livery tonnage-June and July
eSpecially-just as though Moth
ing out of the ordinary were in
the wind" Steel said. 1t added:
Also, overall demand on the
steel mills is still rising. Volume
is developing from construction
and related lines of consumption
at an encouraging rate.
consequently, support for
high-level steel production-al-
lowing for vacation Interruptions

Stocks Recover
Early Loss on
Margin Boost

NEW YORK, April Is R.-
The Stock Market dipped today
and then recovered its balance
as margin requirements were
hiked to 10 per cent.
The decline at the outside
came to / to 8 points. but ex-
treme losses gradually faded with
many issues posting sizable plus
signs. On balance. the market
was lower.
First hour volume was heavy
as the rush to sell gathered speed
right after the opening. How
ever. the pace slackened as prices
staged a comeback.
This is the second time this
year that the Federal Reserve
has required purchasers of stock
to increase the minimum amount
of their own money going into
deal. On January margins
were increased to so per cent
from so per cent, and Friday
after the close margins again
were raised to 10 per cent. That
means customers now can bor-
row a maximum of 80 per cent
if they want to buy on margin.
The move was regarded in
Wall Street as another warning
against speculation in stocks on
margin because of the recently
expanded amount of money
going into such on-the-cuff
trading.
Brokers wondered whether
such a warning was justified
when the amount of money used
in margin speculation is small
compared with the lofty levels
of stock market prices and with
the general level of business
throughout the Nation.

Deportees' March
On Rome Reported

ROME. April 10 P.-The
newspaper II Tempo said today
500 gangsters and lesser Grim
inals deported by the United
States plan to march on Rome
to protest to the United States
Embassy that they can't find
work in Italy.
Informed sources said such a
march was highly unlikely, how
ever. They poined out that Ital-
ian police won't let many of
the deportees move out of their
communities. Former New York
vice king Charles Lucky" Luci-
ano is not even allowed to leave
his Naples home at night.
II Tempo said its information
came from Frank Frigenti, de-
ported by the United States in
1910 after serving eight years in
Sing Sing for murder in
Brooklyn. Frigenti also now lives
in Naples, where a number of
other former American rack
eteers reside.

Edward j. Corsi says that the
State Department tried Ito pull
a fast one" by firing him before
the White House could find out
about it,
He told CHS television audi
ence yesterday on Pace the Ma
ton" that he does not believe
President Eisenhower or any
other White House official knew
he was going to be dismissed as
special assistant to Secretary of
State Dulles on refugee and
migration problems.
Mr.. Corsi, a prominent New
York Republican, was dropped
by the department on Easter
Sunday after 80 days in Office.
The department said he tried to
assume too much authority. Mr..
Corsi lays his custer to pressure
f r o m Representative Walter.
Democrat, of Pennsylvania. who
has accused him of Communist
front associations. Mr.. Corsi has
denied the Walter allegations.
The former aide of Governor
Dewey reiterated his belief that
R. w. Scott Mcleod, administra-
tor of the Refugee Relief Act, is
unfit" for his job. And he
challenged Mr.. McLeod's testi-
mony before a Senate judiciary
subcommittee last Friday.
Mr.. Mcleod told the Senators
that on March 16 he offered Mr.
Corsi these alternatives: With

that such q meeting, under in
suspicious circumstances, might
result in more harm than good.
Sir Anthony and his new For
eign Minister. Harold Macmil-
Ian. are known to oppose the
sort of agenda-less huddle that
the former Prime Minister sug-
gested.
1t is still not entirely incon-
ceivable that within the next
year or two a top-level meeting
involving at least the United
States. Russia and Britain might
take place. And If 1t does. it is
virtually certain that Sir Win
ston, if he is physically able, win
be there.
That he should officially rep
resent the British government at
such a meeting is far less likely.
British elder statesmen (e.g.
Lloyd George and Neville Cham
berlain) have occasionally repre-
scented their country at inter-
gatherings. But at conference
conference as critical as this one,
it would be impossible for Sir
Winston to carry the ball for
him.
The most likely decision. ac-
cording to those who should
know, is that both men would at
tend. Sir Anthony would be head
man and speak with the author
ity of the British government.

NOT MUCH CHANCE - The
recent Federal reductions-in-
force brought about by the De-
Tense Departments accelerated
policy of farming out more OF
its work to private industry and
the use of modern machinery in
Government, has resulted in en-
ploye leaders asking Congress for
q lower retirement age.
Federal employee leaders have
thrown their support behind
legislation to permit Government
workers to retire on full an
nuities after 80 years of service
regardless of age, or after 25
years of service regardless of age
If they lose their jobs. However,
there's not much chance Of Con-
gress approving such legislation
this year.
You can look for Federal en-
ploye groups to push hard for
this type Of legislation next year,
once the Federal pay raise is out
of the way.

The big question now is if
President Eisenhower will sign

Of the 80 per cent postal reclassi-
fication and Z per cent classified
pay bills are hopeful that the
President can be persuaded to
sign, even though he has implied
that he would veto anything
more than 7.6 per cent. If veto
does occur, they are hopeful that
Congress would override.
MACHINE AGE. - The in
