Steel C tract Settlement
Gives Nixon Sharp Boost
WASHINGTON (EP) Monday's steel contract settlement
appears to give Vice President Richard M. Nixon the sharpest
boost yet toward the prime objective of his political life the
presidency.
But the happy note of an agreement brought about on
New Steel Pact
Reduces Chalice
Of Stiff Laws
WASHINGTON iiP) The steel
peace pact yesterday apparently
reduced to a shadow any chance
that Congress will consider tough
new laws to compel strike-settle
ments in basic industries.
Secretary of Labor James P.
Mitchell hinted strongly that the
administration will refrain from
asking for any such new legisla
tion.
He said this at a news con
ference after several key mem
bers of Congress told newsmen
the end of the bitter steel dispute
—and the avoidance pf a new
strike—did away with the need
for Congress to act.
But others in the House and
Senate said Congress still ought
to consider whether legislation is
needed to minimize future threats
to the economy from industry
wide strikes.
News of the agreement be
tween the Steelworkers Union
and the nation's big and little
steel companies brought expres
sions of relief from many of the
500,000 steel hands: It removed
the specter of another walkout
and more payless paydays.
Secretary of Commerce Fred
erick li. Mueller promptly fore
cast the economy would leap
ahead to even greater prosperity,
now that the threat of a renewed
strike has been ended. '
The long and increasingly bit
ter steel deadlock was dissolved
only two days before Congress is
due to reconvene.
With the prospect of a renewed
steel strike later this month, some
senators and representatives had
been talking in terms of new legis
lation to strengthen the emer
gency machinery of the Taft-
Hartley law.
Traffic Deaths Set
New Holiday High
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Traffic accidents across the
country claimed a record number
of lives during the three day New
Year's holiday.
Between 6 p.m. (local time)
Thursday and midnight Sunday
374 persons perished in crashes
involving automobiles, buses and
trucks.
In addition to traffic, 63 persons
died in fires and 76 lost their lives
in miscellaneons accidents for an
over-all total of 513, matching the
1955-56 New Year's record.
, 1960
terms proposed by Nixon and
Secretary of Labor James P. Mit
chell could turn sour :if it is
followed by an increase in steel
prices and a new upivard spiral
in the cost of living.
Now unopposed for the Repub
lican presidential - nomination,
Nixon emerged from three weeks
of secret negotiations as the dom
mating figure in a compromise
that averted what might have
been an economically disastrous
resumption of the steel strike.
Friends think it will not be
lost on the voters that President
Eisenhower turned over to Nix-
on a role frequently filled by
presidents themselves in the
past.
Mitchell, who would like to be
second man on a GOP ticket head
ed by Nixon, gave full credit to
the vice president.
"Without the vice president,"
Mitchell said, "we would not
have had a settlement. His in
fluence, his leadership and his
prestibe were very significant
in this settlement."
Industry and labor leaders were
equally complimentary.

School Aid
Issue Splits
Legislature
HARRISBURG (.P) The 1959
Legislature was still divided last
night on the issue of increasing
state aid to schools.
House and Senate conferees la
bored all day, on the eve of final
adjournment today, in an at
tempt to hammer out a compro
mise.
The Democratic controlled'
House pushed for a $55 million
increase in school subsidies but;
the Senate, in GOP hands, in
sisted on a limit of $l6 million.
The conference committee went
into a night session with both'
sides declining comment on what.,
if any, progress was accomplished
during the day.
As the measure now stands, the
present maximum subsidy base ofl
$5BOO per teaching unit 30. ele.4
mentary school pupils; 22 in high
school would be increased to ,
$6200 in the current school year.l
The figure would fall back to ,
$5BOO in 1960-61.
The House, however, wants an
increase to apply to both years.!
It was one of the last stumbling! !
'blocks confronting the lawmak-,
ers, Who will begin the 1960 ses4
sion of the Legislature at noon
today.

By The Associated Press
The members of anti-Semi

of Hitler's swastika and "Jews
get out" signs on homes and
buildings.
Others shared the alarm of
some European governments. The

"I think this is a synchronized
operation, a sort of rally signal
to Nazi and Fascist elements all
over Europe," declared Franz
Boehm, a leader in West German
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer's
Christian Demociatic Party.
But Abraham Redelheim. presi
ient of the Zionist Organization

Heinz Galinski, executive chair

Council of Jews, urged a sweep
