about both eyes last night despite

~ The two had fought a disputed
draw at Syracuse, N. Y., May 29.
Davey at first was ruled the loser.

Officials Estimate Year Needed
To Assess Loss From Steel Strike
By DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON — (NEA) — It
will take more than a year, ac
cording to government officials,
to get an accurate picture of ‘the
appalling damage done to Ameri
ca’s economy by the steel strike.
Its ramifications and costs are
fearfully vast and complex.
It will also take more than a
year before even the direct es-
Yects of the strike have been
overcome by government and in
dustry, although much of the
strike’s damage is permanent and
can never be completely repaired.
Here are some of the irreplace
able strike losses:
Far more steel has been lost
than could have been produced
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
by the facilities created since the
start of the Korean war. g
In other words, it is worse n
if no steel eapacity had been -
¢d for the Korean emergency: On
July 1, 1952, production was down
7,275,000 tons, or 14 per cent be
low the first half of last year. Two
weeks later the loss was 13,000,000
tons: Total loss could be many
times that, when everything is
considered.
Hundreds of millions of dollars
in wages have vanished.
At the middle of July the loss
of the steel workers was estimated
at $300,000,000. It's many times
that for the more than one million
workers in other industries halted
by the steel strike. Any increase
in wages won by the strike won't
begin to compensate the steel
workers for their loss.
"Hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of “production of autos,
trucks, farm' equipment, appli
ances and other major items using
steel which has been lost by the
strike can only partially be made
up by a production speed-up
later,’ ;
. Strike layoffs spread all over
the U. S.
Ford, Chrysler, General Elec
tric, Westinghouse, Hughes Tool
Co., and the Budd Co., top a list
that reads like a full steck mar
ket report.
Thousands of tons of food will
be lost.
Crops which can’t be stored will
go uncanned after Summer and
Fall harvests because of the tin
can shortage caused by the strike.
Fruits are the crops hit worst.
Every day of the strike, cost to
the U. 8. Treasury is estimated to
be at least $3 million in lost in
come tax. :
The loss to the state in unem- |;
ployment assistance is also stag- |
gering. (
And certainly not the least is|]
the permanent loss in the produc
tion of ammunition, tanks, Army |
trucks, Bailey bridges, mine de- |,
tectors and aircraft landing gears. |
. That’s merely the list put out |
by Defense Mobilizer John Steel
man weeks before an end to the
strike was in sight. Total damage
done to defense production will
have to be kept secret. It's valu
‘able information to the enemy. -
- . Approximately 12 per cent of |
the steel industry has been kept |
going for the most pressing d'afi!
sense needs, and about 80 small |
companies have signed agreements 1
with the unions. This has helped |
stave off a downright calamity in |
defense pr n, but great
amage has beeh done, neverthe
. Here are some of the direct es- |
sects of the steel strike which will |
‘be felt during the next 12 months, |
Th strike halted ore shipments |

ter, with the lakes frozen over and |

production.
When the strike started there
was talk of:removing controls on
steel because it was plentiful.
Now the whole controls program
will have to be completely re
vamped for each industry. It will'
force readjustment. of production
cchedules for many months be
fore the troubles are ironed out.
It only takes a week after nl
steel strike is ended to get back
close to maximum production. But
it will be many months before
vital stocks can be built up again
by defense contractors and the

government {tself, This also com
plicates planning and Yuts the
country in a dangerously weak
position in case of an all-out war,
for at least a year.
Contractors who have lost
stockpiles of steel during the
strike will be reluctant to take
government orders until their
stocks can be built up again.
The effects of the strike will be
felt on the political. front for at
least the next year. The question
of the need for new legislation to
take care of such disastrous labor
disputes will be an important
campaign issue and is sure to be
fought out of the 83rd Congress.
Increased inflation is bound to
follow a settlement calling for in
creased prices and wages.
The mere statistical report of
the creeping paralysis on indus
try and the country’s economy
caused by such a strike doesn't
begin to evaluate the human suf
fering involved.
Operations have to be put off,
education delayed, and personal
debts mount up.
Practically every industrial
community in the U. S. will be
suffering from the effects of the
strike for at least the next 12
months.

Fights Return

To State Prison
CINCINNATI, July 17—(AP)—
George Merrill pleaded on his
knees for 15 minutes against be
ing sent back to a Georgia prison
—but he begged in vain.
“They’ll kill me,” he told Com
mon Pleas Court Judge Joseph H.
Woeste,
“Please God, Judge, the people
of Georgia don't like colored peo
ple,” the 28-year-old fugitive said.
Merrill's wife and young child
joined in pleading for him, but
Judge Woeste ruled that under the
law he had to be returned to
Georgia.
Merrill had served six months
of a 10 to 20 year term for man
slaughter when he escaped from
the Walker county jail in 1945
and came here.
Ohio Gov. Frank J. Lausche re
cently signed an order for the fu
gitive’s extradition to Georgia. He
was brought into Judge Woeste's
court for a hearing on a writ of
habeas corpus.
A. R. Jones, transfer officer of
the Georgia prison system, told
Judge Woeste that Georgia pri
sons have been operating for six
years without chaining convicts.
He said many prisons in the state
are air-conditioned and have tele
vision.
