There is disagreement on the number of atrocities committed by the reds against prisoners but there is general agreement that the rules of civilized warfare have been violated and that many allied soldiers have been killed in cold blood Among the allied soldiers now in communist prisoner pens there must be many who have been eyewitnesses to g atrocities They will have a story to tell and once they are safe inside their own lines they will be eager to tell it Some of them probably will be mute witnesses to the communist violation of the rules of war their appearance will clearly show the ill treatment they have received Thus the communists are aware that once they have tiirriAH inn vp thpir nrisnnprs thev will be turninfl lnnse at the same time a wave of anger against themselves They know that the life of the individual is all important in the minds of western peoples and that some of the stories that can and will be told will offset a week of red propaganda broadcasts by the Pyongyang radio That is the main reason they have taken so long on the prisoner of war issue in the truce talks They have been looking for a formula to put a good face on what must be a bad situation Steel Union Sees Crisis On Inflation By Mark Sullivan WASHINGTON — The contract negotiations between United Steel workers of America C L O and heads of the steel industry con tain serious possibility of a crisis about inflation While the union has named no specific figure it has made demands which in the aggregate would amount to a wage raise variously estimated at from la cents an hour upward to 25 cents or more This runs directly counter to a standard formula which the offi cial wage stabilization board at Washington has set up for wage raises generally By this formula the permissible wage raise in the steel industry would be about five cents per hour Thus the wage stabilization board is confronted by a dilemma If they waive their formula in the case of steel the whole authority of the formula and the board would be seriously impaired: unions in other industries would be extremely likely to demand wage raises above the standard almost the standard would disappear or be come a feebly flexible standard moving always upward Moreover a wage raise in steel would increase the cost of manufacturing steel and this would at once raise a problem for another government agency the office of price stabilization Almost certainly the heads of the steel industry following any raise in wages would ask the OPS to authorize an increase in the price of steel corresponding to the wage raise It is almost axiomatic that a wage raise which increases the cost of manufacturing a product is followed by an increase in the price of the product With few exceptions this has taken place in the past The rule was once put in terse words by Eric Johnston who recently resigned as economic stabilization administrator: "We all know that wage increases are reflected in price increases and that price increases' lead to wage incents-per-ho- creases" I Amended By This is hot nomics to a in statutory Congress merely a rule of ecodegree it is embodied law and official administrative practice The defense mobilization act as amended by congress last July provides that when the office of price stabilization fixes a ceiling on the price of any article it must be governed by increases in cost of production including of course wage raises While this statutory provision applies to increases in cost of production that had taken place preceding the date of passage of the law July 26 the principle it lays down is obviously sound When a government agency fixed an official price for any article it cannot fairly or practicably ignore the cost of producing the article Spokesmen for labor unions in various industries have occasion al uy argued mat a given wage raise they demand can be paid without a price increase that the cost of the wage raise can be paid of the profits of the industry The Goths maintained that Gothic out correctly or out of prospective increases in was the only style for churches Where they went wildly the volume of production But the has been that a wage wrong was to advance from this premise the intertable propo- experience raise is followed by a price in— crease A conspicuous example now rtion that Gothic was the only style for railway stations relevant occurred

and more critical of new fangled ways and the lid on steel but keep it down tastes even to the point that some of them seem to us quite on otner commodities There would be an upsurge in the price
