WASHINGTON, R - Workers in Alaska and Hawaii will be added statistically to the nations total of employed and unemployed starting this month.
 The Labor Department an- nounced this today as the first step in gradually bringing the two new states into it's periodic reports that cover employment, wages and other labor data and the cost of living.
 Adding Hawaii and Alaska to the labor force will raise the total few hundred thousand, the Department said. The 48-state tabulation no longer will be made.
 The latest figures, covering November, included 65,640,000 workers employed and 3,670,000 out of work. The first 50-state fig ures, covering January, will be out next month.
 The Labor Department said the payroll employment total count of the number of factory workers = will continue to be

New York Central Train Roars Off Track at Northern Ohio Town

WILLIAMSON, Ohio, M - A 10-car New York Central passen- ger train roared through cross over switch at 30 miles per hour in mist and fog last night and hurtled off the rails. At least four persons died and more than 50 were hurt.
 The eastbound flyer was being switched to the westbound track so it could pass freight train up ahead, and a railroad official said the top speed for this cross over should have ben only Is miles per hour.
 The trains engineer, H. w. Kir- stein, 63, of Cleveland, was in- jured in the pile-up and was taken to a hospital.
 There were about 1853 passen- gers aboard when the speeding train crumpled into a jagged line of steel in this village of 5000, about 37 miles southwest of Cleveland.
 Leaking diesel fuel caught fire and flashed up to a height of 30 feet for brief period.

Mitchell Predicts No Increase in Steel Prices

DETROIT, LR = The steel wage settlement is in line with others negotiated this year and cannot set off wage spiral with highly inflatiopary effects, Secretary of Labor Mitchell said today.
 And there will be, no steel price increases for some time to come if management and labor try to increase the rate of steel produc- tivity, Mitchell added. He said he was sure both sides would make such an effort.
 Mitchell, credited with playing a major role in last weeks settle ment of the 116-day steel strike, also said there may never again be major steel strike in this country.
 with good will and good sense, and with awareness that an eco- homie institution like steel cor poration or a labor union must serve the public interest as fully as it's own interests, it could be possible = on the basis of this settlement-that the United States will have seen it's last major steel strike," Mitchell said.
 Mitchell said that in the new settlement the steel cOmpanies and the United Steelworkers Union have cut the postwar wage in crease trend by half. He quoted Roger Blough, chairman of the board of U. s. Steel, as saying the average annual increase in hour ly employment costs under the new terms will be 31s to 3a4 per cent compared with other postwar settlements in which the increase averaged about 8 per cent.

New Radio Method Found to Measure Polar Ice Depth

FIT. MONMOUTH, N. J., N = An explorer-engineer has devel- oped a new way to measure polar ice caps in the Arctic and the Antarctic, the Army announced today.
 The method, developed by Am ory H. Waite of Oceanport, uses radio waves instead of the old seismic system of setting off ex- plosives near the ice surface and analyzing the resulting sound waves.
 The Army described the old way as accurate but time consum- ing and expensive. Skilled seis- mologitss are needed to do the readings.
 Radio soundings can be made as fast as an operator can move over the surface in vessel, a tracked vehicle or a helicopter skimming few feet above the ice. |.
 Depth is computed by measur. ing the time that signals take to pass through ice, reflect against hidden ground beneath and re- turn through the ice to an an tenna, the Army explained.
 The fractional time elapsed shows up on a scope like that used in television picture tubes. Allowance is made for the slow ness of radio signals moving through solid ice. ,
 Waite, who works for the Army Signal Research and De- velopment Laboratory here estab- ished this speed as about half the normal radio wave speed of 196, 900 miles second when mov- ing in a vacuum, the Army said.

Louisiana State U. Woman Biologist Found Murdered

(
 BATON ROUGE, La, lR " Con- struction workers found the body of Dr. Margaret McMillan, 38, beside her auto on a lonely lane six miles from Louisiana State University campus here early Sum- day.
 Deputy c. E. Johnson said the biologist, who was not married, was killed by 13 severe blows behind the head with sharp in- strument, perhaps tire tool or an ax. The weapon was still missing.
 Dr. McMillan was teaching at the schools New Orleans campus. She left her New Orleans apart ment Saturday afternoon, telling neighbors she had date.
 Johnson said the attacker ap- parently struck as Dr. McMillan started to light cigarette. She had a pack of cigarettes in one hand and matches in the other. He said there was no evidence of rape.

The big apartments along
the Lake Shore waited for
the evening sun to get behind
them, and then pointed long
blue fingers across the park
toward the yacht basin. A
40-footer moved out in Lake
Michigan. 1t was a time when
even the leaves hold their
breath.
UP HIGH IN ONE Of the
buildings, the Vice President
was talking about children.
Someone-namely, me-had
pointed out that, no matter
how many children come from
the same set of parents, God
has a habit of distributing
virtues so that each one is
different.
Patricia Nixon. IA, is the
serious beauty with a great
sense of responsibility; Julie,
IL, is the sparkling wit, the
one who almost dozed through
her fathers acceptance
speech.
Mrs. Nixon permits the
girls to watch television on
Saturdays only, and she marks
the shows they are allowed
to watch. Sometimes, when
Mrs. Nixon is busy, Julie
watches a cowboy movie by
herself. One recent Saturday
this happened. and Julie
started to dial the set by
herself.
Her father was in another
room, working over the mail.
Mrs. Nixon was in the kitch-
en-, helping with a salad for
dinner. Everything was quiet,
as the Vice President tells the
story, when Julie burst into
his room. The child was
excited.
She explained that she had
been trying to get her cow
boy movie, but, in passing,
had heard the name of Nixon
mentioned on another chan
mel, and had stopped the dial
ing to listen. The child was
bugeyed.
Daddy" she said. There
is a man on there and he is
saying awful things about
you. Terrible things"
Richard Nixon had to
smile at the innocently out
ragged expression. What did
the man say?" he said softly.
The child shook her dark
head so that the short bob
shook around her ears.
Awful things" she said. HE
doesn't like you at ALL"

DEAR ABBY: Why do
people bother to come to
church if they can't stay
awake during the sermon?
We are faithful church-goers
and I have noticed several
people who fall asleep regu-
larly the minute they sit down
in church. One man snores
a little and it is a mystery to
me why his wife doesn't give
him a shove. Don't you think
it is the duty of those sitting
near people like that to wake
them up?
CHURCH-GOER.
When people fall asleep in
church, someone should wake
up the preacher.

If my husband had "for-

Some patients actually re-

that he has sense enough to
take time of occasionally to

rather have a rejuvenated

than one who works around

dissolve stones. Probably
they weren't there in the
first place.
People ask: Whats the
worst pain in medicine?" I
tell them it's an entirely per-
sonal matter. No two attacks
are alike. Some patients with
coronary thrombosis suffer so
much that their blood pres
sure plummets and they go
into q state of shock. Others
may have pain that is no
more severe than a mild at
tack Of indigestion. In some,
a gall bladder attack is worse
than the excruciating pain of
a kidney stone kicking up.
In others, vice versa. I have
known patients who went
through gall gladder, kidney
stone and coronary throm-
bosis episodes who said that a
severe, intractible toothache
was probably the most un-
bearable of all. The answer
seems to be: there's no
worst pain in medicine"
There's no question that in
the doctor-patient relation
ship. the doctor is often the
"father-flgure" as far as the
patient is concerned. This
explains the occasional hos
tility the patient lets out on
his doctor-although he still
respects and loves him.
Everyone'S in a hurry at
times. Yet some timid fell
lows who never take a plane
invariably blame it on the
little woman.
How to get a consultation?
Simply ask for it. Don't be
afraid Of hurting your doc
tors feelings by making such
a request. No reputable doc
tor will refuse. We know
that even If we can't hope to
gain any added advice that
will help. there's always the
likelihood that the family

working very hard and only
has time to write once or
twice a week. But I'm afraid
he's not telling the truth. He
may be meeting other girls
there. His letters are not very
affectionate.
My mother says I should
stop writing to him, but when
I write I feel he is near me
and I'm sot lonely without
him. We went steady all last
year.
Mrs. L. E. - I'm afraid
Sandra is going to get very
badly hurt. She spends most
of her days writing passionate
love letters to Herb and then
goes into the deep blues when
she gets a funny post card in
answer.
I never discouraged her
dating with Herb because I
felt the friendship wasn't
serious. In fact, she was
often inconsiderate and even
cruel to the boy.
But the minute Herb went
away, Sandra started this
letter-writing campaign. /
have warned her that he may
show the letters to other boys
and girls and she will be a
laughing stock. That doesn't
stop her.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
We are fairly certain that
If Sandra had a summer job
herself, she would forget
about Herb for days at a
time. She would probably
meet another boy or two who
would interest her and would
hardly find the time to send
Herb funny post cards.
No mother can talk a To-
year-old who wants to be in
love out Of her feelings. But
she can try to direct her
attention elsewhere. A teen
ager should have some def
mite project for the summer
months. A girl Of Sandra's
age should be able to get a
job as a babysitter. She
might also work at a day
camp or take a summer
course. And the girl who
learns to sew over the sum-
mer can whip up a beautiful
fall wardrobe.
OF course, it Is foolish for
her to write passionate love
letters. Even If her boy
friend is too nice to reveal
these personal messages to
others, Sandra herself will
eventually be extremely en-
barrassed at the thought that
he has them.
