and on the opposite page appeared an engi-

crossed out No wheels! A rail appeared
under the wheel and was also crossed out.
The Martian's sketch then showed the

Behind one of the windows they saw

They went inside, and the Marian mOtioned
them to the chairs, which were equipped
with seat belts.
Their guide seated himself in the forward

microphone, then a buzzer sounded, and
the platform door slid down silently, fol-

Transit Strike
End Foreseen
InLosAnge|es

Los ANGELES. Nov. 10
(AP). - A four-day transit
strike that threatened to knock
the whole town on Its trolley
was tentatively settled today.
Streetcars and buses probably
win resume their runs Monday.
The settlement, o surprise to
many, came after an eight-hour
negotiating session that wound
up in the early morning hours.
Only yesterday striking me-
chanics had voted to reject an
offer by the Metropolitan Tran
sit Authority.
The new contract, which
would run a months. is subject
to ratification tomorrow by the
Amalgamated Transportation
Union. Approval Is expected.
Terms Of the agreement will
not be announced until after
the union votes.

dispute. Publisher Franklin 8.

Mr.. Payne and his STAFF met

Transit Authority and the
County Labor Federation. Fol-
lowing this meeting, the State
Cancellation Service called the
formal negotiating session at
which the strike was settled.

ulated today by the Transit
Authority and the union.

Steel Industry !
Seen Facing
Profit Squeeze

NEW YORK, Nov. 2 (AP)-I
The steel industry faces q
tighter squeeze on profits. the
trade publication Iron Age said
today.
Nevertheless, the likelihood
of a general price increase is
small until the m marke t
strengthens. the magazine said.
The low profit outlook was
attributed to these factors:
Higher labor costs after
steelworkers get a pay raise
December /: costlier shorter
rolling schedules as mills try
to give fast service during a
period Of light orders; high cost
of carrying inventories to pro-
vide fast delivery, and the
prospect Of operations slump
ing further in the next few
weeks.
Iron Age said an indication
that steelmakers are not con-
templating an imminent price
increase is that there has been
no notification to tinplate
users. Producers usually advise
their customers IS days in ad-
vance Of a price change.
Other price developments in
clude:
Some stainless steel prices
have been reduced in the last
two weeks in competitive moves
to increase business.
Converters are reported to
have cut prices on reinforcing
bars and some structural steel
products.
Some automotive tonnage
has been set back from Novem-
ber to December, indicating
that large users are fairly con-
f1dent there will be no general
price increase.
