Steelmaker Sees No Recovery Till 1984 Bethlehem Steel says that it will keep losing money Corp. until mid-198- 3 and will not see "significant improvement" until 1984. "While 1983 will almost certainly not be a good year for Bethlehem, we remain optimistic about the longer term," chairman Donald H. Trautlein said in the No. 2 steelmaker's annual report to shareholders. "We anticipate that Bethlehem's operating losses will continue at least through the first half of the year. Any significant improvement in the steel business is not likely to occur until 1984," he said. The nationwide recession should end this year, but the ailing steel industry usually recovers six months or more after the rest of the economy, the chairman said. Bethlehem, struggling through the worst steel industry slump since the Depression, lost $1.47 billion in 1982. Its loss of billion was the largest quarterly loss in U.S. corporate history. Bethlehem's mills ran at only 37 percent of capacity by the end of 1983, compared with 48 percent for the year as a whole and 76 percent in 1981, the report said. fourth-quart- er $1.15 "Exceedingly poor customer demand ... forced us to curtail - Jean (UPI) Harris, convicted for the murder of "Scarsdale diet" Dr. Herman lost her bid today to con- Tar-nowe- r, vince the Supreme Court to study whether she was a victim of massive publicity and prejudicial evidence.

The catch was the exemption applied only if a worker could have qualified for benefits under the old financial dependency rule. As a result, most male government workers were denied Social Security spousal benefits, while women were permitted to collect full government pension plus full spousal benefits. Robert Mathews, a retired postal worker from Alabama, challenged the inequity in a class action suit. On review, U.S. District" Judge Foy Guin Jr. found the men illegally were being treated differently from women. Rather then take away benefits being received by female government workers, Guin ordered all the men start receiving spousal benefits. Besides, even if use of the finan- cial test is unconstitutional, the government said, Congress made clear it would rather have female government workers stripped of their extra benefits than grant more benefits to men and overload the financially ailing Social System system. drifted into each mis- the Space Shuttle and sion being bigger and its costly delays ate up better," said Arden a large part of NASA's Albee, JPL chief scien- budget.
