MEDICAL
Did Steel Miss
An Opportunity ?
At the precise moment that
wage and workers' benefit raises
went into eff ect in the steel in-
dustry, the price of steel went
up an average of $6 g ton, The
clireet additional cost to the
Con has been estimated at $500
million annually.
The cast of living index will
rise and there will be new wage
demands to meet it, The into.-
tionary spiral will go on its in-
exorable way, hitting those with
fixed incomes, cutting back real
wages, increasing the co s t of
government, operations (a n 4,
consequently, 'the load on the '
taxpayer) and threatening the
American position in the export
market,
Was steel—a primary supplier
for virtually all of American in-
dustry — justified in raising
prices? Industry leaders say yes.
They argue that the wage in-
creases Won last summer and in
effect now require the step. Ro-
ger M. Blough, chairman of the
board of United States Steel,
said: "When employment costs
go up, sooner or later the his-
tory is that our purchased goods
and services will ride along."
United States Steel said its
employment costs have risen 6
per cent, and its price increase
amounts to only 4 per cent.
Steel men also assert that the
depreciation allowances in the
tax laws are insufficient to pro-
vide for replacement of equip-
ment and expansion of capacity.
The latter is generally assumed
to be necessary in view of the
rising demand. If paid for out
of earnings (and less than half
of United States Steel's earnings
last year were paid out as divi-
dends) part of the cost is passed
on to the consumer, meaning,
in the case of steel, the whole
American economy.
U.S. Steel has more than dou-
bled its sales in the post-war
years and increased its earnings
from $88,600,000 in 1946 to
$348,100,000. Surely this record.
should leave a margin for the
absorption of a greater amount
of the wage increase, at a time
when it is urgent to check the
inflation that is steadily eating
into the economy.
The steel industry may well
respond that it was up to labor
to show moderation in its wage
demands last year. That is un-
questionably true. But until some
one, either in industry or labor,
is willing to assume the responsi-
bility for calling a halt to the
inflationary spiral, that spiral
will not be checked.
The steelworkers had the op-
portunity to do that last year.
They failed to take it. The steel
industry had the same were
last week. They were in
a strong financial position; they
they had the incentive of realiz-
ing the danger of pricing Arneri-
cam steel out of the world mar-
ket; they were urged by the
President to display statesman-
ship. It would have represented
a risk to have foregone price
increases — but would the risk
have been as great as that con-
tained in driving another sharp
spur into the racing American
economy?
Perhaps steel would not, sin-
gle-handed, have been able to
meet the current inflationary
situation. But it could have
given' leadership toward econo-
mic sanity which is now badly
needed, It is regrettable that it
did not do so. — New York. Her-
ald Tribune.

VOTE GETTER — Recalling the
old saw about not being able
to tell the players without a
scorecard, this ballot card was
given voters in the recent Egyp-
tian elections so they could
identify candidates. Designed
for voters who can't read or
write, the pictorial symbols at
the left identified each man.
A fellow was complimenting
Mel Ott.
"You were one of the few
ball players to come directly
into the big leagues from the
sandlots," he said to the little
man who hit more than 500
home runs for the New York
Giants. "Not many made it up
here without minor league ex-
perience."
"Well, I wanted to go to the
minors when I first came to the
Giants," said. Ott, now a play-
by-play broadcaster for the De-
troit- Tigers. "In the beginning,
I had no idea. I'd stay right there
with the Giants until I retired.
Of course, I didn't know what
Mr. McGraw (manager of the
Giants) had planned fer me."
There must be many pleasant
memories of a long career in the
National League. .
"Too many to remember," Mel
said,e smiling. "It was a wonder-
ful life. I loved every minute of
every inning of e v e r y ball
game. The only trouble was,
they didn't last long enough. It
all ended too soon."
This from a fellow who lasted
for 22 years.
"Sometimes you meet some-
body who brings back a flock of
memories," Ott continued, seri-
ously. "Or you read a name in
the paper. Like Paul Wan(er. I
read something about him the
other day and I immediately
thought about the way he could
hit that ball. He was a wonder
with the bat—could, as they say,
thread a needle.
"He'd watch you in the out-
field while at bat, and if you
moved one step in one direction,
he'd aim the ether way. If I
edged a little toward the foul
line in right field, he'd shoot for
right-center—and he'd hit it a
surprisingly high percentage of
the time. You couldn't give him
an inch. He stole a lot of base
hits that way.
"I remember his brother Lloyd
Waner, too," Mel said. "He got
something like 190 singles one
season and more than 230 hits
in all. Any ground ball to the
infield that bounced twice was
a base hit. Travis Jackson was
the greatest throwing shortstop I
ever saw. He played Lloyd shal-
low, but still couldn't throw him
out. The little guy could fly
down that line.
"Lloyd and Hughie Critz, who
played second base for the
Giants, had a home run race
every year. It really was funny,
Neither one ever hit more than
three or four.
"'Well, with about two and a
half months of the season to go,
the Cardinals came'into the
Polo Grounds, with Dizzy Dean
pitching. Critz alwaye wore
Dean out and he hit two into
the stands that day. Pittsburgh
came into New York after the
Cardinals left. and Waner paid
Hughie off. "I'll never catch you
now,' he told Critz. He never
did, either. I think Lloyd fie-
islied up with one and he got
that inside the park,"
Lefty O'DOure name w $
Mentioned and Ott continued:
"Lefty and I niede them
change the rules of batting
practice. We'd walk up there
and hit gb fouls down the right
field line hi practice, getting our
aim sharp for the game. We'd
take up to much time getting
,:eur Ave hits in Sete territory
that they finally changed it to
five twinge far each hitter.
"That O'botil really tould

Justice Done
After 265 Years
Justice has seldom crawled so
tortoise-slow es it has done for
Goody Ann. Pudeator. It has
taken just, two' hundred and
sixty-flee years to catch up on
het,
Nicknamed 'Vile flag of Hell"
Mother Pudeator was tried and
Convicted of witchcraft and
hanged, to the delight of the
men, women, and children of
the New England village of
Salem, Massachusetts.
That was in 1692, when a
ttrange and horrible phenomen-
on transformed the peaceful life
of the colonial village and turned
decent, kindly *folk into fear-
crazed fiends. Before the out-
break ended nineteen victims
had been publicly hanged and
one pressed to death for refus-
ing to plead.
Terror stalked throughout the
village in that year of horror,
for no man or woman was im-
mune from the pointing finger
of the accuser, And it was so
easy to accuse — so hard to
prove innocence, For Jonathan
Corwin, grim, ignorant and su-
perstitious, it was almost enough
that the poor trembling wretch
before him had been accused at
all. (You can still see the little
court-house.)
But why should a God-fear-
ing, Puritan community of quiet
and sober habits suddenly be-
come convulsed by fear of wit-
ches and of the presence among
them of their master the Devil?
You might as well ask why
Influenza epidemics occur. Hys-
teria, that strange, uncanny con-
tagious mental disorder, strikes
Es mysteriously as any virus di-
sease.
There were ten nice young
girls in Salem in 1692. They went
to meeting on Sundays. They
knew their Bibles backwards.
They feared. God and they feared
the Devil. They were typical of
the Puritan children of New
England. But, for, a spell at least,
they were very different from
other children.
Their first victim was a guile-
less old Negro who was servant
to the village pastor. Old Tibula
was a popular character a de-
cent, friendly man, faithful to
.his master and pious and sober
his ways.
But those virtues did not, save
him when ten piping voices ac-
cused him of bewitching their
owners.
Very soon after the accusa-
tion of Tibula, the same nice
b
ttle girls claimed to have been
ewitched also by two old wo-
Olen. Both strenuously denied
the charges, but were fiercely
kterrogated and brought to
rial.
Now began a fantastic land-
?tide of reason. The whole vil-
age was seized with witch-hunt
nania. The first accusations had
seen made in May. By August
nindreds of men and women
lad been arrested aiid brought
o trial. Most of them were con-
ticted.
Among these, Mother Pudea-
or, a harmless old woman, went
o her doom.
The charges levelled by the
c misers followed a general pat-
A bather had been rescued by
a local fisherman. After artificial
respiration had been used fpr
some time he showed signs of
life.
A bystander then came for-
ward with a glass of brandy.
Eyeing this eagerly, the bather
gasped: "Roll me over and get
some more water out first."
tern. The witch, had caused
fowls and cattle to die; had
brought disease to the victim;
had been seen in talk with the
Devil,
In the case of Mother Pude-
ator the charges were excel),
tionally horrible. She was ac-
cused ot: the most vile crimes,
and before her hanging had be-
come known far and. wide as
Salem's Hag of Hell.
Then, when it seemed as
though half the people of Salem
were either addicted to witch-
craft or the victims of it, the
governor of Massachusetts de-
cided that it was time to take
official action. In May, 1093, he
ordered the release from Salem's
overcrowded lock-tip of no few-
er than four hundred prisoners,
all held on charges of witch-
`craft,
This firm action bad the im-
mediate effect of curing the
people of Salem of their tempor-
ary insanity. As mysteriously as
Satan had got to work in the
little town, he-eieparted.
And so the years rolled on.
Then, not so long ago, a film di-
rector decided to make a film.
Ills subject was the witch-hunt
mania of old Salem. Its central
character, Goody AnnePudeator.
One day, Senator Leverett
Saltonstall of Massachusetts
happened to see the film, "Satan
in Salem." It made a very deep
impression on him.
The Senator arranged for his
fellow legislators to see the film
and then said: "What we ought
to do is to have a re-trial in the
light of modern knowledge and
on the known facts of the case."
At first this seemed a some-
what crazy idea, but it took root
and, early this year, the legisla-
tors of Massachusetts solemnly
re-tried in her unavoidable ab-
sence) Goody Ann Pudeator on
charges of witchcraft, and duly
found her not guilty.'
Then the Senator drafted a
bill declaring Goody Ann Pude-
ator wrongly convicted of witch-
craft. He brought his bill be-
fore the Massachusetts State
Legislature and it was passed
without'' opposition and to loud
cheers.
But lawyers pondering this
bill began to have doubts about
its validity. The State had the
necessary power, it was con-
ceded, to legislate upon domestic
matters not reserved for Wash-
ington. But could it undo by
law acts done before there was
any such thing as a State of
Massachusetts? For at the time
of the Salem witch-hunt, Mas-
sachusetts was a British colony.
So now Senator Saltonstall is
going to take the case to the
United Nations General Assem-
bly: Before long, it seems, the
cruel injustice done to Goody
Ann Pudeator will be hauled
out for inspection before the
eyes of the modern world.
After going about three miles
a motorist who had given an old
lady a lift on a country road
asked: "And where did you say
you were going?"
"Well," she said, "to tell you,
the truth, I was going in the op-
posite direction, but I didn't like
to hurt your feelings when you
offered me a ride."
