STEEL
Industry to Answer
President Today

FTC's charge that they had
done so.
Should the commission find
evidence of collusion now, it
would ask a Federal court to
invoke any Of several penalties.
The toughest would be a $4,000
a day fine for each offense.
FTC views each sale at a con-
Spiracy-fixed price as a separate
offense.
Inquiries Possible
Longer range and possibly
much more significant medicine
was being brewed on Capitol
Hill. in the form of separate
Senate and House inquiries
which could lead to Federal in
tervention in price and wage
decisions on a scale never
known in peacetime.
Representative Celler, Demo-
crat of New York, announced
that steel hearings by his House
Antitrust Subcommittee will
open May 2. Preparatory in
vestigation is starting at once,
he said, into the selfish, in
flationary action" Of the steel
industry.
And, Senator Kefauver, Dem
ocrat of Tennessee, announced
that his Senate Antinonopoly

would make 1t difficult for
businessmen to plan expansion
and modernization of factories
and equipment, and would dis
courage some investment
spending.
And if high prices curb con-
sumption, manufacturers will
have little incentive to expand
their productive capacities.
In both the short and long
run, economists generally agree,
the best way to promote pros
perity is to produce efficiently
for expanding markets at
tracted by low prices-instead
Of selling limited production at
high prices.
Initiation also would endanger
the dollars international sta
bility by making it difficult to
eliminate the deficit in the
balance Of payments.
The United States has been
running large payments deficits
because the Government and
private citizens spend, lend, in
vest and give away more money
abroad than they receive from
foreign sources. Deficits are
met partly by selling gold from
Government stocks, and large
losses of gold could shake con-
fidence in the dollar.
Increased exports relative to
imports are the key to solving
the balance-of payments prob
lem. And American prices must
be held down for successful
competition against imports
and in export markets.
Rising prices also would in
crease the cost of Government
programs abroad for foreign
aid and defense, worsening the
payments deficit. The Govern
ment might be forced to curtail
its overseas activities, reducing
aid, closing military bases and
calling home troops and their
dependents.

Intern's S Queries
Prompts Judge
To Quit Case

Municipal Court Judge
Thomas c. Scalley disqualified
himself from hearing a jury
case today, saying it was be-
cause the defense attorney, a
legal intern, asked prospective
jurors too many questions.
Before trial of an assault and
unlawful entry case began, the
intern, Patrick A. Mcdonald,
asked about Is questions of the
jury panel.
They included routine queries
about past criminal records,
employment with law enforce
ment agencies and the like and
also asked whether any jurors
had once been prosecution
witnesses, and whether they or
members of their family had
ever been assaulted.
The questions came during
pre-trial "voir dire" which is
designed to discover and dis
qualify jurors who show bias
toward a defendant. None had
been challenged in this case as
yet.
Judge Scalley, who has
clashed with interns before,
interrupted several times to
ask if the questions were
relevant. He then recessed the
trial for Is minutes to allow
Mr.. Mcdonald to hire a court
stenographer, then disqualified
himself.
His decision set off a search
for another judge to hear the
case, which may have to be
continued to next month.
Mr.. Mcdonald is one of six

Shun Controversy
Senator Dirksen and House
Minority Leader Halleck re-
fused to be drawn into a dis
cuSsion of the merits of the

maintained that the contro-

the G. o. P leadership would
not object to fair and efficient
investigations by Congress.
This is an economic and not
a political ISSUE" Mr.. Halleck
said.
Democrats, however, Sensed
a fresh issue and rallied quickly
to the President.
Senator Humphrey, Demo-
crat of Minnesota, called it IAN

an irritant to labor" Senator
Mansfield, Democrat of Mon

PHILADELPHIA, April II
(AP).-The Federal Bureau of
Investigation awakened Lee
Linder of the Associated Press
at 3 am. today to question him
about steel price statements
attributed to President Edmund
F. Martin of Bethlehem Steel
Corp. after the company's an
nual meeting Tuesday.
The agent said this was ur-
gent Government business, on
orders of Attorney General
Robert F. Kennedy.
At his news conference yes
terday in which he criticized
the steel increase, President
Kennedy said he noted a state
ment by Mr.. Martin ''in which
he Stated-though now he says
he's misquoted - that there
should be no price increase
and we are investigating that
statement :"
After the Bethlehem meet
ing the Associated Press quot
ed Mr.. Martin as saying:
There shouldn't be any
price rise. We shouldn't do
anything to increase our costs
if we are to survive. We have
more competition both do
mestically and from foreign
| firms"
Mr.. Martin declined, how
ever, to predict what will hap
pen to steel prices after July
l, when the new two-year
labor pact goes into effect.
Bethlehem Joins Others
Yesterday Bethlehem Steel
joined United States Steel and
other major producers in post

porter and if he had talked
with Bethlehem's president aft
erWard.
Mr.. Linder said yes, and the
agent replied:

Two FBI men arrived at Mr..
Linder's home about 4 am.
The agents talked with him less
than an hour.
At Wilmington, another re-
porter, James l.. Parks. jr., of
the Wilmington Evening
Journal, found two FBI agents
waiting for him when he ar
rived at work at $50 a m. today.

the campaign to hold prices
down.
To stabilize prices. the ad-
ministration is putting pressure
on labor and management for
restraint" in wage and price
boosts.
These and other policies are
advanced through public state
mentS, speeches. private con-
tracts, the Presidents Advisory
Committee on Labor-Manage-
ment Policy and the planned
White House Economic Con-
ference.
Last Falls Appeal
Mr.. Kennedy last fall ap-
pealed to the steel companies
not to raise prices when a
scheduled pay increase took eff
feet. He backed up his plea
with statistical arguments
about the adequacy of the in
dustry'S profits, and with an
implied pledge to use his in
fluence to prevent an infla-
tionary labor contract this
year.
Steel prices were not raised.
Industry leaders implied that
the President did not influence
their decision, stating that they
held prices steady because of
competitive factors.
The President and his aides
fulfuilled their pledge by pres
Suring the United SteelWorkers
OF America to negotiate a rela-
lively cheap contract providing
no wage increase and fringe
benefits costing an estimated
2.5 per cent.
Output Increasing
Increased output per man.
hour will more than offset this
2.5 per cent boost, so the labor
cost of producing ton of steel
actually will decline, according
to the administration. There
fore, the argument goes, there
is no need to raise the price of
steel to cover the costs of the
new labor contract.
The steel industry contends
it must raise prices to catch up
with cost increases since the
last price boost in 1858, and to
acquire funds for investment in
modern equipment.
/ Steel price boosts could
hamper achievement of many
of the administrators specific
goals, in addition to thwarting
the Presidents broad economic
strategy.
Steel is a major ingredient
in consumer goods, factory
equipment, construction and
military weapons. If auto
manufacturers, appliance max
ers and building contractors
have to pay more for steel,
their increased costs may force
them to raise prices.
Furthermore, a break in the
steel price line might encour-
age other industries to aban-
don restraint and raise their
prices imitatively. If steel
triggers a wide range of price
boosts, the recent record of
price stability will crack.
Unions would try to stay
ahead of the game by pushing
for big wage increases, which
in turn would force new price
rises. Labor strife would cur
tail production.
Force New Deficit
Increased Government spend
ing for weapons probably
would eliminate whatever
chance may remain for bal
ancing next years Federal
budget, and deficit financing
would aggravate inflationary
pressures. Plans for tax re-
vision would be threatened.
Domestic price initiation would
be harmful for all the old
fashioned reasons, including
erosion of the dollars value and
hardship for pensioners and
others living on fixed incomes.
Moreover, it could retard re-
covery from the recession and
cause another slump by dis
couraging retail buying, hous-
ing and capital Investment
all of which must rise to sup
port increased production and
employment.
Long-term economic growth
also would suffer. Rising prices

OAR

Continued From Page Al
the OAR has in the past been
for me, as it was for her, a tie
with my country. Surely a
patriotic organization has as
its special purpose a desire to
serve and to perpetuate the
National interest. Yet over re-
cent years I have been increas-
ingly troubled by doubts as to
whether the OAR can now be
truly said to serve such a
function. A growing number of
the official policies of the
organization are wholly out of
line with the policies of the
United States of America as
formulated by both the Repub-
llcan and the Democratic par
ties, and as overwhelmingly
indorsed by a majority of the
American voters. This trend
seemed to me to have reached
Its climax when the society was
unable to support the children's
fund, the UNICEF program of
the United Nations.
I'm reaching decisions such
as these the society has moved
through its executive officers

aged, the holding of alterna-
tive views frowned on. 1 find
it very hard to believe that

tionS, that great organization
for peace. is representative of

at which I no longer can be
a silent supporter of such Off
cial views, and membership
constitutes such approval. Res
