The United Steelworkers had slimed an agreement with the Bethlehem steel corporation ending the strike tor that company's 80,000 workers and breaking the otherwise solid front that had been maintained by big steel in the strike issue. IT WAS A TRIUMPH for CIOs President Philip Murray who announced that the agreement called for Bethlehem to pay the full cost of minimum pensions for all employees 65 or over with 25 years of service. A social insurance plan also was included in the agreement. Bethlehem, the industrys second largest producer, was the first unit of big steel to capitulate to union demands for a company-finance- d pension and welfare plan. No one could say just how much the pension program would cost the steel company per hour for each employee once it begins operating. It was expected the pension plan would start to function in January and the social insurance program would get underway at about the same time. Murray told newsmen that a estimate of "very conservative the pension cost to the company would be about 10 cents an hour, but added actuarial studies would have to be made before the cost could be determined definitely. THE CIO '' LEADER said the Bethlehem' action would set a pattern for the steel industry, but declined to say what companies be was talking to privately.

Because sales dropped so much with miners out of work, the store cut its operating hours from I each day to 4. DEFENSE: Some Confusion It was difficult to reconcile Mr. Truman's constant emphasis on the grave defense problem, that he said confronts the nation, with his slashing of the air force budget which limited the groups to 58, and the more recent decision of the navy to cut 31 warships from the active fleet. THESE ACTIONS served only to intensify the average citizens confusion and puzzlement as to what actually is the status of the countrys defense needs. The navys top admiral had been ousted because he contended present defense policies would destroy navy value and effectiveness. Other navy officials were facing probable punishment for speaking out. Unification and harmony were urged on all sides as a desperate need if this nation is to protect itself in the world of today. Despite all that, the air force was to be less than its "generals declared it should be and the navy was being deprived of much of its strength. This left still hanging the question of who was right in t the row over armed iervice unification and the proper defense setup. THE NAVY was taking 77 ships out of active service cutting the operating fleet by 31 warships in line with fund reductions. The fleet will be made up of 237 by combat vessels, Instead of the 268 it had on September 1. Most of the cut way to be in the Atlantic force. It was also reported that 54,891 men will be whittled from the navy and marine corps by next July to correspond with the reduction in ships. mid-195- 0 INDUSTRY: Profits Climb The first upward trend In U.S. industry profits since the peak of earnings was reached in the third quarter of 1948 was reported in New York. Profits turned around and headed upward in the third quarter of 1949, the report said, and pointed out that 1948 was a banner year that surpassed even the fabulous 1929. Thus it appeared that industry earnings were at a record peak. BUT THE PICTURE was not quite as bright as it may have appeared. Washington had a different report. Commerce Secretary Sawyer reported that the coal and steel strikes had increased the number of jobless by 225,000 In the week ending October 8, as compared with early September. It was quite possible that the strike effect had not been felt strongly enough as yet to influence the roseate report concerning earnings in industry. The future was uncertain. As strikes continued, so would purchasing power dwindle, and with that fall-of- f would come- an inevitable decline In industry earnings. HE EMPHASIZED that the figures released do not show the full effects of the strikes because they were compiled while the walkouts were in their early stages. As for industry .Riplit, .a: compilation by the Associated Press showed net profits of 314 companies amounted to one billion, three mil-io644,061 dollars in the third quarter of this year an increase of 4.3 per cent over earnings of 962 million, 102,819 dollars in the second quarter of 1949. n, - Bethlehem worn sleep Appeal' Protestant churches during the Christmas holiday season will seek funds to provide clothing, education, recreation and spiritual leadership for refugees in the Near East Church World Service,' Inc., overseas relief agency for 23 Protestant and Orthodox denominations, said a special Bethlehem Appeal committee would seek gifts to aid refugees stranded in Bethlehem and other Near East areas.

THE MINISTER of home affairs took the view that proposed legislation was "rather too drastic to meet a situation which is more of an annoyance to individuals than a threat to community One complaint, issued to bolster the proposed legislation, was that the gypsies tramped down crops.
