Utah Grand Jury Asks State to
 Erase Polygamy

PENNINGTON, Utah, R III Utah should launch an extensive investigation of polygamy in an effort to stamp out the practice, says the Davis County Grand Jury.
 The jury returned. nine indict- ments yesterday and issued re- port on it's six-months probe of plural marriage.
 The report did not say how many people were involved in polygamous practices, but said the cost of welfare payments is a staggering burden on the tax payer.
 The practice of a man taking more than one wife once was sanctioned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Mormon) But the church, which has more than half the popula- ton of Utah among it's members, outlawed polygamy before state hood in 1896. Since then, any Mormon caught practicing poly gamy has been communicated.
 Small groups calling themselves Fundamentalists persist in taking more than one wife, and claim divine sanction. The legal charge of unlawful cohabitation carries a penalty of up to five years in prison.
 The jury suggested the practice should be punished more severe ly and that the women should also be prosecuted.

Anti-Semitism Still Rears Ugly. Head in Germany

BRUNDWICK, Germany, lR IT Four new anti-Jewish incidents were reported today in various parts of Germany. Police tried to find out if they are part of a concerted nationwide campaign.
 Swastikas and anti-Semitic slo- gans were pained on the monu- ment for the war dead and vic tims of Nazism here last night.
 Swastikas were painted on sev- eral shop windows in the Rhine land town of Rheydt.
 Authorities in Hesse announced the state criminal agency has taken up the case of an 85-year- old Jewish survivor of the Resien- stadt Terezin concentration camp who was anonymously threatened with crucifixion.
 In Offenbach, near Frankfurt, a half-Jewish resident reported that swastikas and the word "Jew" were scratched on his car. Police said the man advised them belatedly, explained he feared he would be terrorized if he reported the incident.

Deadlock Threat Felt in Geneva Treaty Talks
By JOHN M. HIGHToWER

WASHINGTON, LR1 m I n United States and Britain are facing a new crisis in their nego- tiations with the Soviet Union for an enforceable treaty outlawing test explo sions of nuclear weapons.
 It may reach head soon after the three-power talks resume January 12 in Geneva. It is not the first time a deadlock has threatened.
 The crisis centers around de- velopment of an international in spection system strong enough to discourage cheating with sneak explosions.
 Unless the Soviet Union modi- fies it's opposition to strengthen ing the system already proposed, President Eisenhower indicates he may order a resumption of underground test explosions in the United States.
 Before such a step would be taken, the United States would very likely change its strategy in the negotiations at Geneva to seek a limited rather than a com prehensive test ban. A limited ban would apply only to explosions in the air or in the water. They could be policed more easily than underground explosions.
 A toughening U. s. policy with respect to the negotiations was disclosed yesterday when Eisen- bower substituted a day-to-day voluntary suspension of nuclear weapons tests for the present fixed term moratorium which expires December 31.

Boston ShOreline Flooded by Highest g Tide in IO8 Years

BOSTON, LR - Thousands of persons fled their homes, hundreds were rescued and damage was re- corded in the millions from a record ocean tide which gave New England one of it's worst coastal floods.
 Communities along 30 miles of the Greater Boston shoreline suf- fered the brunt of the flood devas- tation as the Atlantic Ocean spurted stormy anger from Maine to New Jersey.
 The highest tide in 1O8 years 143 feet brought ocean water to depth of seven feet on some streets and into the first floors of many homes.
 The flood tides were driven by a northeast storm which battered New England for the second suc- cessive day.
 The storm dropped up to 16 inches Of snow on New England. At least nine deaths were blamed on the storm.
 More than 700 families were forced to flee their homes in the town of Hull on Boston's South Shore. Scores of women and chil- dren were plucked from first floor windows by rescuers.
 Coast Guard craft and private boats were called to aid in the evacuation.
 In New York, 44,O0O homes were without power when the storm snapped power lines. Two men were electrocuted by fallen wires.

GSA Studies Possibility
 Of Moving TOk Station

WASHINGTON, lR - The pos sibility of moving the border in- spection station at Tok Junction, to the Canadian border at Snag is under study by the General Service Administration.

Administration Considers Steps to
 Revamp I'll Rights in Steel Impasse

WASHINGTON, R III The Ad- ministration is considering a wide range of proposals to Congress for dealing with the threat of a renewed steel strike.
 The deadlocked labor dispute in the industry continues tighter than ever. Director Joseph Finne- gan of the Federal Mediation and Consolidation Service said today management and the Steelworkers Union are so preoccupied with electioneering ahead of sched- uled January 11-13 poll of steel workers that no further govern ment peace moves are contem- plated at the moment.
The Nome nugget., 1959-12-30

The poll m on whether the workers want to accept manage ment's last offer TT is part of an admittedly unwieldy Taft-Hartley law procedure for dealing with emergency strikes. With both sides seeking support for their positions in the upcoming ballot ing, they have no immediate in centive to seek settlement solution.
 Thus, the Administration is considering steps to revamp the Taft-Hartley emergency strike procedures as well as moves to deal with the immediate steel labor crisis
