Honored by Tribal Members

Known variously as The
Doctor who speaks Apache"
"The Doctor Who n ever
Smiles" and THE Doctor with
the Sleepy Eyes, the soft,
spoken physician was honored
with many gifts by tribal mem
bers before his departure.
His office in the hospital elm
ic was filled daily with gifts of
pottery, cradle boards, beaded
necklaces, Apache dresses for
his wife and daughters, saddle
bags and other presents.
The various events held in his
honor were arranged quietly
when tribal members learned
he was leaving the reservation.
And though Ohio is a long

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April
II (AP).-An 8-year-old Negro
girl, critically injured by a pick
up truck, lay waiting some 10
minutes for a Negro ambulance
while a white ambulance stood
by at the scene here yesterday.
After the wait that seemed
like hours to Jim Howard,

he took her to a hospital after
giving her first aid, he said
today. City Policeman Roy
Farnell, investigating the acci-
dent, said he asked Mr.. How

evident the Negro ambulance
which had been called was de-

Mr.. Howard said today that
a city ordinance forbidS his
company's ambulances to carry
Negro patients, but Police Chief
G. j. Ruppenthal said there is
no ordinance setting up racial
designations for ambulances.

President Kennedy is fighting
the steel price increase because
he fears it will ruin his grand
strategy for stimulating, ex-
panding. stablilizing and mod
ernizing the Nations economy.
That strategy contemplates a
loose form OF economic plan
ming and indirect controls by
the Government - purportedly
designed to strengthen free en-
terprise and so save it from the
tide of statism and socialism
rising around the world.
But the strategy requires that
businessmen. investors and
workers voluntarily cooperate
with Government planners most
of the time on fundamental
points.
If this experiment with VOL
Iuntary action fails. planning
enthusiasts will press for laws
compelling the private economy
to cooperate. These laws prob
ably would start with limited
controls on wages. prices and
ALLEGATION of resources in key
segments of the economy.
Controls Studied
The President apparently is
reluctant to travel this road,
although the administration
has studied standby controls.
He hopes public opinion. politi-
cal pressure and tough enforce
ment of antitrust laws will
make the voluntary system
work.
Because steel is so important
as a symbol and as a basic in
dustry, the fight over steel
prices will provide the first
crucial test of the Presidents
Strategy-and possibly the last.

-INTERPRETATION-
Kennedy Fears Ruin
OF Economic Strategy

Mr.. Kennedy's economic pro-
gram involves little planning
and control in the formal sense.
Rather, it depends on indirect
but extensive guidance of the
private economy through eX-
hortation, persuasion and use
of such weapons as taxation
and spending.
Administration Aims
In broad outline, the admin
istration aims at full recovery
from the l960-l recession. pre-
vention of future sharp slumps,
fast growth of the economy's
productive capacity. relative
price stability, production ef-
ficiency. and elimination Of
the deficit in the balance of
international payments.
Economic models" have
been constructed by the Coun-
Gil of Economic Advisers to
show how these goals can be
achieved. The administration
derives from these models
general policies for the Gov
ernment, labor and business.
To stimulate recovery from
the recession, for example, the
administration has increased
Government payments to un-
employed workers and pumped
Federal money into the econ
omy through deficit budgets.
To promote growth of the
economy's capacity. the admin
istration proposes to encourage
business investment in modern
factories through tax incen-
tiveS.
To eliminate the deficit in
the balance of payments, the
administration is promoting eX-

Castro 10 Free
Sick kCaptives
For Ransom
81 to Be Released
Saturday, Pleas
For Others Go On

HAVANA, April IL NAH).-
Fifty-four sick or wounded
captives Of the Bay of Pigs in
vasion are to be released Sat-
urday following the payment
of ransom into a Canadian
bank. Negotiations will continue
for the ransoming of more of
the 1,179 invasion prisoners.
A spokesman for the COM
mittee who negotiated the re-
lease of the first group said
they would be flown to Miami
on Saturday with two doctors
accompanying them.
Their release was arranged
by a committee of four exiles
who came here Tuesday from
the United States after a mill
tary tribunal found the invad-
ers guilty of treason and set
ransoms on their heads rang
ing from $25.0O0 to $500.C00,
Otherwise they face 80 years
in prison.
No Price Cutting
A Havana television broad
cast said the Cuban Families
Committee in the United States
had agreed with Prime Minis
ter Castro to continue negotia-
tions for the freedom of the
rest of the prisoners. But there
was no Indication that Mr.
Castro was cutting the prices
put on the individual captives
The ransoms set by the
Cuban tribunal totaled $62
million. The Families Commit
tee said it had collected only
about $26 million and hoped
its negotiators could buy free
dom for all the prisoners foI
that amount.
A Havana broadcast said the
prisoners whose ransom hal
been set at the lowest amount
-$25, ,000-would be the first
ones freed as soon as the
money was paid. Radio Reloj
Nacional said contributions
received with the destination
to the common fund will bene-
fit those prisoners of lesser
means"
President Kennedy at his
news conference yesterday
ruled out any United States
Government part in the nego-
tiations to free the prisoners.
He said that Mr.. Castro knows
the United States Govern
ment cannot engage in nego-
tiation like that" He added
that Mr.. Castro also knows
the families of the prisoners
cannot raise the sums he asked
for their freedom.
Long Negotiations
The negotiating committee
held two long sessions with
Mr.. Castro before the plans
for the first release we're an
nounced last night. Relatives
Of the captives met for 312

mittee and emerged saying they

Teacher Raise
-e
OF 17% Urged
Hansen Proposes
$4,000 Top Pay
By DAVID BREAST
Star Staff Writer

District School Supt. Carl F.
Hansen today asked teacher
pay increases averaging It's
per cent and costing ST. mil
lion.
DR.. Hansen submitted to a
school board committee salary
proposals affecting 5000 teach
erS and supervisors. He asked
that minimum starting pay be
raised to $4,000 and top teacher
pay to $4,000.
UNLESS we attract brighter
young people and keep our ex-
perienced teachers, we're going
to wake up one bright day to
find the school system has
deteriorated," DR.. Hansen said.
In another move, he proposed
using part of the Soldiers
Home grounds for new school
facilities.
The present starting pay for
teachers with bachelor de-
grees is $4,000; for teachers
with masters degrees and 80
additional credit hours, the pay
is $7,848.
Supersedes Old Proposal
The bill superSedes another
measure sent to the Commits
sioners last year which would
have raised the top pay to
$9,l00 but kept the starting
minimum. The Commissioners
have taken no action to send
this bill to Capitol Hill.
Like the previous bill, DR..
Hansen's proposals today in
cluded power for the school
board to disallow an annual
salary increase if an employe
fails to receive a satisfactory
performance rating.
The ST. million cost, based
on salary costs for regular day
school, also includes salary
costs for evening and adult
education and summer schools
and retirement and group life
insurance benefits.
Fair Relationship
DR.. Hansen, asked for COM
ment, said that I'VE are aware
that we may have to do this by
stages, the first stage being the
$1,000 maximum"
He pointed out that, while
this would create a fair re-
lationship" with systems around
the District, it would still leave
teachers behind the salary
levels of industry, Government
or even some Dlue-cOllar JOBS.
In the second development
today, DR.. Hansen proposed
that the schools acquire be-
tween Is and 80 acres of the
Soldiers Home grounds as a
new site for District Teachers
College. a Junior high school.
and a girls vocational high
school.
DR.. Hansen pointed out that
the site would not cost the Dis
trict any money.

on Steel Price Boost. Poee A-8
antitrust action to break up the
industry's leader, the United
States Steel Corp.
President Kennedy and other
high officials waited anxiously
for this afternoons news con-
ference by Roger NJ. Blough,
United States Steel's board
chairman. in New York.
A company spokesman dashed
cold water on hopes expressed
in Washington that U. S. Steel
might cancel the price boost
announced Tuesday night and
since then followed by six other
steel companies.
That's just rumor and spec
ulation," he said by phone from
New York. adding that he saw
no indication at company head
quarters of plans to rescind the
price increase.
Fifth Rise Slated
National Steel Corp. the Ma
tion'S fifth largest steel pro-
ducer. was the latest company
to raise prices by about Sc a
ton, announcing its action this
morning in Pittsburgh.
Administration efforts and
hopes forced more on discour-
aging price increases by other
steel companies, rather than on
forcing an immediate roll-back
of boosts already announced.
But increases already an
nounced were imposed by COM
IpanieS accounting for perhaps
three-fourths of the Nations
steel production.
Mr.. Kennedy conferred about
steel with high administration
officials at the White House
this morning for about IS min
utes and then left them to
continue their talks for an
other half hour.
Defense Statement
Andrew T. Hatcher. acting

told reporters after the meet
ing that he expected no i'm
mediate announcement Of a1-
ministration plans. But he in
dicated that the Defense De-
partment might issue a state
ment on procurement policies
later today or tomorrow.
Mr.. Hatcher declined to COM
ment about the possibility that
announced price increases
might be rescinded, saying
only that the President would
like steel prices to remain as
they were when the labor)
contract was signed" last
month.
Mr.. Kennedy at yesterdays
news conference denounced in
dustry leaders for raising prices
after the administration had
helped the companies negotiate
a labor agreement he considers
non- -inflationary.
He said the Government was
exploring actions it could take
to protect the public interest
in the face of the price boosts.
His comments indicated that
the main approach under study
would involve antitrust action.
