Steel Strike
Idles Other
SIndustries
900,000 Men
Hit by Dispute
PITTSBURGH-(fP)--More than
a quarter-million workers in steel-
using industries were temporarily
jobless yesterday in the 25-day-
old strike of 650,000 CIO United
Steelworkers.
More lay-offs in allied industry
threaten. Relatively large steel
supplies still on hand, however in
plants of steel consumers, are
likely to keep the total from sky-
rocketing for about two weeks.
' THE CURRENT jobless figure
is around 239,370, counting those
laid off and workers ordered laid
off in coming days.
The steel strike is costing
USW members an estimated 49
million dollars a week in total
pay losses.
The nation is losing 1,839,000
tons of steel production each week
*of the walkout. Mills which are
working under new contracts or
mills which don't deal with the
USW are producing about 252,-
000 tons of steel each week. Be-
fore the strike, the steel industry
was working at full capacity and
making 2,090,000 tons of steel each
week. This week the industry is
operating at 12 per cent of capa-
city.
The American Iron and Steel
Institute, an industry organiza-
tion, says about 9,100,000 tons of
steel have been lost as a result of
the great steel controversy.
The automobile manufacturing
industry, which already counts its
strike-idled employes in the thou-
sands, expects harder blows next
week.

Power Withi Decade
By HARRY LUNN
Canada expects to be using atomic power for the commercial
production of electricity within the next 10 years, J. Lorne Gray,
general manager of Atomic Energy of Canada, Ltd., revealed last
night.
Addressing a dinner session of the Law School Summer Insti-
tute, Gray said that the first experimental power producing reactor
should be developed within the next four to six years to set the
stage for the commercial reactor which will feed one of the electric
power grids in Canada.
' "We are convinced, even with our present incomplete knowledge
of this technology, that fission of natural uranium will produce
energy that can and will compete economically with coal and oil,"

House Rips
Extension of
Control Bill
WASHINGTON --(P) - The
House tore the administration's
controls bill to shreds yesterday,
passing a measure which would
remove price ceilings on almost
all consumer goods next Tuesday
and end federal rent control in
many areas Sept. 30.
The rollcall vote on final pass-
age was 211 to 185.
PRESIDENT .Truman wanted
the House to amend the Defense
Production Act to extend all con-
trols on prices, wages, rents and
credit for another year beginning
July 1.
Instead the House confronted
him with a riddled bill which
would:
1-Lift price controls Tues-
day on everything not rationed
or being allocated; terminate
federal rent control Sept. 30 ex-
cept in critical defense housing
areas or areas whose local gov-
erning body requests contin-
uance; abolish the present Wage
Stabilization Board (WSB) and
replace it with an advisory body
stripped of all power to inter-
vene in labor disputes, and end
on June 30 the President's
authority to curb consumer
credit.
The House Appropriations Com-
mittee also yesterday recommend-
ed a deep cut-just short of 25
per cent-in funds President Tru-
man had asked for 'a variety of
purposes, including foreign aid
and atomic energy.
The Senate passed last night and
sent to conference with the House
a bill to raise old age and sur-
vivors insurance benefits by an
estimated 300 million dollars a
year.
Segregation
Causes South
African Riots
JOHANNESBURG, South Afri-
ca - (P) - South African non-
whites launched a campaign of
defiance yesterday against the Na-
tionalist Government's race-seg-
regation laws.
Alerted police promptly jailed
132 who purposefully broke the
laws amid chants of "arise Africa"
and clenched-fist salutes.
THE LONG-HERALDED cam-
paign of civil disobedience start-
ed on a small scale with military
precision. Leaders urged the dem-
onstrators to avoid violence and
none was reported.
In the first action, 30 Negroes
including two women calmly
walked through a railway sta-

tion reserved exclusively for
whites. Within 10 minutes, pis-
tol-packing policemen hustled
them off to prison.
Fifty other Negroes and Indians
'drove in a fleet of cars from
Johannesburg to the neighboring
gold-mining town of Boksburg.
The Negroes weren't carrying the
identity papers, tax and movement
permits required of all non-whites.
The Indians deliberately crossed
forbidden race boundaries.

Radiation
Mobile Unit
Here Today
A mobile field training unit
demonstrating atomic radiation
safety procedures is being dis-
played in conjunction with the
Law School's Fifth Annual Sum-
mer Institute.
Open to the public from 9 a.m.
to noon and 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. un-
til tomorrow at the main arch of
the Law Quad, the truck contains
radiation detection apparatus for
laboratory use, field survey and
personnel protection.

FILLED WITH EXPENSIVE
equipment for training public
health workers in the detection of
radioactivity, the $30,000 unit is
compactly designed to provide ad-
equate facilities for . the program.
Simon Kinsman of the Ra-
diological Health Department of
the United States Public Health
Service demonstrated how an
extremely sensitive G e i g e r
counter measures the amount
of radiation from the luminous
dial of a watch while a sound
magnifier amplifies the radia-
tion in staccato dots which in-
dicate the amount per second.
For field work, such as survey-a
ing areas following an atom bomb
attack a Geiger-Mueller counter
of much higher volume of radia-
tion is used.
LABORATORY TYPE counters1
are used to determine the amount
of radiation in a prepared piece
of material, such as a water or
soil sample. The radiation isj
measured by a complex decimal
scaler which indicates the quanti-a
ty of radiation per unit of timeI
and operates automatically. I

'he delared. "We are thinking at
this stage of quite large central
power stations."
EARIER YESTERDAY an esti-
mated 200 business executives and
lawyers assembled for the three
day institute on "Atomic Energy-
Industrial and Legal Problems"
heard of new developments in
atomic research from Edwin J.
Putzell, Jr. secretary of the Mon-
santo Chemical Co.
He revealed that the solution
to the problem of economic pro-
duction of electric power from
atomic energy with simultane-
ous manufacture of vitally
needed plutonium is believed to
have been found.
Monsanto researchers have rec-
ommended design and construc-
tion of a pilot plant for a moder-
ated type of atomic reactor, he
said.

WALKER L. CISLER, Detroit'
Edison Co. president, also spoke'
at the Institute's first session yes-
terday. Cisler stressed that private
capital faces a tremendous res-
ponsibilityin developingpeace-
time , applications for nuclear
power.
"At present atomic energy
activities are consuming the
country's resources rather than
contributing to them because
of heavy demands of the work
in terms of electricity, man-
power and material," he point-
ed out.
Other speakers at the dinner
meeting last night were Presi-
dent Harlan H. Hatcher and Gil-
bert H. Montague.
Hatcher discussed the aims of
the Memorial Phoenix Project.
He cited a threefold purpose -
teaching, research and service.
Meetings slated today are "The
A.E.C. Contractor and Supplier"
from 9 to 12 a.m. and "Govern-
ment Controls over Atomic En-
ergy Utilization" from 1:30 to 4

Allies Won't
Confer for
Three Days
Naze Reported
Mad over Action
By The Associated Press
FRIDAY, June 27-Allied nego-
tiators marched out of the Kor-
ean truce talks today and inform-
ed the Reds they would not be
back for three days.
The chief Red delegate, North
Korean Gen. Nam Ii, still was
talking when the five-man Allied
team walked out of the tent at
Panmunjom.
IT WAS the third Allied walk-
out since the talks became dead-
locked over the final issue-vol-
untary repatriation of prisoners
of war.
Maj. Gen. William K. Harri-
son, Jr., senior Allied delegate,
told correspondents after the
walkout that Nam was very an-
gry.
"He had great difficulty con-
trolling himself," Harrison said.
T h e Communists yesterday
warned that Allied insistence on
giving each prisoner the right of
free choice on repatriation was
threatening to expand the war.
IN PUSAN yesterday, South
Korea's martial law boss and five
of his high subordinates resigned
for failing to detect in advance
the attempt on President Syng-
man Rhee's life Wednesday,
Almost at the same time, a
government spokesman an -
nounced that a political foe of
Rhee in the National Assembly
had admitted supplying the pis-
tol used by the would-be assas-
sin.
Government spokesman Clar-
ence Ryee said the resignations
were voluntary but there were re-
ports that Rhee had asked the
men to surrender their posts.
On the fighting front, Allied
warplanes hit Communist North
Korea's electric power stations
Thursday with about 150 jet fight-
er-bombers showering destruction
on the already battered hydro-
electric system.
Break Up 300
Prisoner Riot
In Kentucky
EDDYVILLE, Ky.-(A)-Approx-
imately 300 mutinous convicts in
the Kentucky State Prison sur-
rendered early last night after
eight hours of rioting in which
eight convicts were wounded and
a guard was injured.
The prisoners, barricaded in a
three-story building, capitulated
at 7:15 p.m. (EST) as a small
army of State Police and prison
guards stood ready to march upon
them.
Warden Jess Buchanan an-
nounced that no concessions were
granted to the mutineers.
THE CONVICTS had demanded
resignation of a deputy warden

and a dining room steward, elim-
ination of "brutality," abolition of
daily drills and five other conces-
sions.
Dr. W. E. Watson, State Dir-
ector of Corrections, told the
rioters they would have to sur-
render unconditionally.
He added grimly that he would
"not be responsible for what hap-
pened" if the prisoners harmed
Charles Mcdhesney, 41-year-old
foreman of the prison garment
factory, who had been held hos-
tage throughout the day.
McChesney walked out unharm-
