Labor Force Returns to Job As Steel Firms Speed Output -Associated Press Wirephoto BEFORE BIRDER DISPUTE-Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of India and Premier Chou-En-Lai of Red China, now at sharp issue over border problems, were in a more friendly state in January when Chou visited India. Chou recently proposed that he and Nehru meet soon to settle the border difficulties. Nehru Remains Slent -To Chinese Peace Bid PITTSBURGH (A)-Major steel firms counted between 50 and 75 per cent of the normal work force back on the job yesterday in a race to hit peak production ahead of industry's timetable. By the end of the week virtually all of the 500,000 steelworkers will be back on the job. More than 20,- 000 of 335,000 workers idled in al- lied industries also have been called back. Railroads, hardest hit, expect to. recall additional help dependent on the needs of the mills. Steel- owned coal mines also showed a pickup in production. Output Up Some steel firms already have found output exceeding expecta- tions, three days after the su- preme court ruling to uphold the Taft-Hartley injunction in the 116-day strike. Quick-heating electric furnaces yielded the first new steel. But de- spite industry's fast recdvery nor- mal production is expected to take from four to six weeks. United States Steel Corp., the nation's No. 1 producer, reported production well above 25 per cent of capacity with 60 per cent likely by Saturday. An auto industry spokesman re- ported that steel production re- sumed in time to prevent any serious disruption of car output by three automakes - Ford, Ameri- can Motors and Studebaker-Pack- ard. However, the pinch of steel shortages may continue to affect General Motors and Chrysler. GM already has halted production on all but two assembly lines for lack of steel. Steel shortages have idled more than 210,000 auto workers, most of them at GM. In Ohio at least 50,000 of the 81,300 who struck have returned. The bulk of the workers will be back by the beginning of next week. Expects Workers Back U. S. Steel's national tube divi- sion at Lorain, Ohio, expects all of its 8,700 workers back by Sunday and then will hire 200 to 300 ex- tras to handle a big backlog. At Houston, Texas, Sheffield Steel turned out its first steel since the start of the strike. But Sunday's ship channel disaster may delay Sheffield's return to full production. The terminal at which a ship was taking on cargo is adjacent to the Sheffield plant. Six crewmen were killed in a fire aboard the tanker Amoco Virginia. In Buffalo, N.Y., steel company officials said full production in area plants might be reached in about two weeks. Earlier estimates ranged from four to six weeks. Season LeIngthened And for the first -time since World War II the Great Lakes shipping season has been extended beyond the normal Dec. 15 clos- ing date.- Thecorps of engineers an- nounced winter closing of the Soo Locks between Lakes Superior and Huron will be postponed indefi- nitely to permit continued iron ore shipments on the lakes. Meantime, USW President Da- vid J. MacDonald expressed hope that a contract agreement with the steel producers can be reached before the court order sending the union members back to work ex- pires Jan. 26. Meanwhile, White House spokes- man James C. Hagerty called labor union leader Emil Mazey a dema- gogue for saying President Dwight D. Eisenhower paid off a political debt by getting a court order that halted the steel strike. Mazey, secretary - treasurer of the United Auto Workers, shot back that Hagerty is "a stooge of the steel companies . . . a lackey of big business." The Mazey-Hagerty exchange-- at long distance-grew out of.Ma- zey's speech yesterday to the AFL- CIO industrial union department. The UAW leader said "I charge President Eisenhower with a po- litical payoff to steel companies" in invoking the Taft-Hartley Law to end the 116-day steel shutdown at least for 80 days. Mazey said the alleged payoff was in return for $214,500 he said was contributed by steel company officials to Eisenhower's 1956 re- election campaign. Hagerty said, "Such demago- guery, leveled against President Eisenhower, is, of course not really worthy of comment. I am sure that the American people realize that the President acted only when it was clear that the welfare of the United States dictated postive ac- tion under the law. Such action was upheld by -the courts of our land." COEDS- Our hairstyling will enhance you.

Negotiations to draw a clear line dividing the two countries have stalled. "We are no closer to a settle- ment with them than we were three years ago," one of Burma's high army officers has said. Multiple Troubles Indicated The long-standing argument with China, over a boundary line is just one of the multiple frontier troubles that plague Burma. Others include shooting and pil- laging on the Burma-East Pakis- tan border, ill feeling between Naga and Kachin tribesmen on the Burma-India frontier; opposi- tion to Burmese rule by the head- hunting Wa tribes on the north- east boundary with China; Na- tionalist Chinese soldiers and opium runners near the triangle of Burma-Thailand-Laos, and re- bellion in the Shan states border- ing Thailand. Discuss Common Dispute I the Peiping bid for a meeting to discuss the border dispute. He said he planned to travel the rest of the week and a formal.re- ply to Premier Chou En-Lai would not be prepared until he returns to New Delhi. Keep Full Strength. Nehru spoke to a huge crowd here for almost two hours. At one point he declared: "Even if the border disputes be peacefully settled we have to keep ourselves in full strength and not bow our knees." Nehru was reported to have told his Congress Party's high com- mand last night that there would be ;serious obstacles to acceptance of Chou's invitation to discuss the border dispute. One major problem was said to be Chou's proposal that India and China pull back their troops 12 /2 miles from the disputed MacMa- hon line between Northeast India and Tibet and from each side's present position in the Ladakh re- gion of northeast Kashmir. Nehru Qualifies Withdrawal Nehru has insisted that any withdrawal should be from the frontier recognized by India and not the line to which the Chinese have advanced. Nehru was reported standing firm against any negotiation on the Chinese-Indian border or on any portions of Indian territory. By JACK LEFLER Associated Press Business News Writer NEW YORK (R) - Stock mar- ket attention was glued again yes- terday to developments in the wake of the Supreme Court's in- terruption of the steel strike. Uncertainties of the situation made analysts cautious in their interpretations of the outlook. Investors displayed their own uncertainty. - Steel displayed their own uncer- tainty. Steel shares were mixed, with some of the major companies showing declines on the New York Stock Exchange. "It is a bit dangerous at this point to say how much is changed in the stock market as a result of the injunction," Hutton & Co. ob- served. "It looks as though the fight will go on at least for the major part of the 80-day (cooling off) period. "It is too late to avoid the great damage to corporation earnings and wage - earner buying power caused by the 116-day work stop- page of around 87 or 88 per cent of the country's steelmaking ca- pacity, and the consequences will be felt in the steel-using industries for at least two or three months.
