THE SHEBOYGAN PRESS, Friday, April 13, 1962 Elmer Zeinemann, 53, Stale Conservation Leader, Dies Obituaries MRS. AUGUSTA WILSING 22 Injured Continued from page 1 rial Hospital by Rudy's Ambulance. Diamant, alone in his car, sustained bumps and bruises and told deputies he would see his family doctor for treatment. At 12: 10 a.m. today Doris J.

Preder, 42, of I Blough Continued from page 1 the nation's welfare, strength and vitality. He said he was surprised by the bitterness of White House reaction and was not in any sense defying anyone. Just 24 hours earlier, the President had accused Blough and a handful of other steel executives of irresponsible defiance and ruthless disregard of the national interest. In a lengthy explanation, Blough said raising prices, and hopefully profits, was a step to accumulate plant improvement and modernization funds needed to keep in the competitive race with the modern steel mills abroad built in the postwar period. This was made necessary by rising costs, he said.

Expresses Surprise Blough expressed surprise at an estimate that the steel hike would add $1 billion to defense expenditures. Direct sales to the Defense Department, including sales through subcontractors and everybody else, would account for only about $20 million extra, he said. The increase, he said, adds almost negligibly to materials costs in. every-day products. As typical, he mentioned 65 cents for a small refrigerator, J10.64 on a standard-size car, three cents for an electric toaster, 70 cents for a domestic 4-burner range, five one-hun-dreths of a cent on a common-sized food can.

Blough spoke throughout in calm, deliberate, tones, sometimes hesitating, and with apparent reluctance to generate any new friction by use of strong terms. He said foreign imports of steel were a very serious problem, and stressed the role of up-to-date machinery and equipment in meeting their challenge. Without such improvements, he added, "no sales will be made, no work provided, no taxes available and our international competitive positions, our balance of payments, our gold reserves and our national growth will seriously suffer." Elmer Zeinemann, 53, of R. 2, Sheboygan Falls, widely well known throughout Wisconsin for his activities in conservation work, was stricken with a fatal heart attack at his home early today. Active in church and civic affairs, he was best known for his work in conservation, especially in the area of pollution of lakes and streams.

He served as chairman of the Sheboygan County Conservation Association's pollution committee for over 20 years, and was a leader battling pollution in the Sheboygan area. Mr. Zeinemann served as secretary of the Sheboygan Chapter of the Izaak Walton League of America for more than 30 years, and represented the local chapter at state and national conferences during that time. Two years ago he was the recipient of a state award for his work in combatting pollution. A charter member of the Spring Farm Rearing Club, he served on various committees promoting fish stocking, tree planting, pheasant rearing and other programs.

Active In Youth Work Always interested in the youth program, he was instrumental in promoting conservation in youth groups and conducted many field trips for boys and girls in Scouting, 4-H and church groups. Mr. Zeinemann was associated with his father in the A. E. Zeinemann Grocery Store, 1036 Union since 1925, and served as vice president of the A.

E. Zeinemann Food Market Corp: He also was president of the Sheboygan Food Dealers Association for the past two years, was a member of the South West Advancement Association, St. Paul's Lutheran Church at Sheboygan Falls, the Sheboygan Falls Conservation Club and the Sheboygan Chapter of the Izaak Walton League, of which he was secretary and treasurer. Born Oct. 14, 1908, in Sheboygan, the son of Mr.

and Mrs. A. E. Zeinemann, he attended Bethlehem Lutheran School and Central High School. He worked in the carpentry trade for a few years and then became associated with his father in the food business in 1925.

Funeral Monday He was married to Miss Thelma Kuehl on June 29, 1940, at St. Paul's Lutheran Church at Sheboygan Falls, and they lived in the Falls area since that time. Survivors are his wife; a daughter, Mrs. George (Kay) Bohnsack of Plymouth; one granddaughter; his parents, Mr. and Mrs.

A. E. Zeinemann; two brothers, Ray and iYs time to plant Blough under news conference questioning, had disclosed that price records of U.S. Steel had been subpoenaed Thursday morning. Blough said he was not subpoenaed personally.

Later the Bethlehem, Jones Laughlin and Armco Steel corporations confirmed they had received subpoenas, and that the president of still another company, not identified, has been subpoenaed to appear a week from today. Next, newsmen learned that the attorney general had discussed with a group of visiting foreign college professors the possibility of forcing U.S. Steel to divest some segments of its vast empire of ore fields, blast furnaces, mills and fabricating plants. Witnesses said Kennedy told the professors the department was checking two questions, one being whether the steel companies got together and raised prices. He was quoted as saying.

"If they did that, they would be in violation of the law and would be subject to criminal penalties. "The second question is if one company, namely U.S. Steel, so dominates the industry that it controls prices and should be broken up. "These matters are under study. All that can be done will be done." Shortly thereafter Edwin Guth-man, Justice Department information officer, confirmed that attorney general was correctly quoted.

Meantime two more steel com panies climbed on the higher-price bandwagon. National Steel fifth largest, posted the $6 increase and was followed by Pittsburgh Steel 14th in rank. Five companies had followed U.S. Steel's lead a day earlier-Bethlehem, the second biggest; Republic, No. Jones Laughlin, No.

Youngstown Sheet and Tube, No. 7, and Wheeling Steel, No. 11. But hone flickered in the ad ministration that some substantial number of the roughly 200 com panies the industry might de cline to play follow-the-price leader. The price parade obviously had slowed down for 24 hours at least, and to this extent was not following the pattern of rapid-fire markups which has characterized most previous steel price movements.

Though the holdouts represented only about one-fourth of all U.S. capacity, they could supply enough steel at the old $150 a ton price to create problems for the higher-priced producers. Blough admitted as much at his news conference. A reporter noted that Armco Steel and Inland Steel, both among the top 10 producers, so far had not raised prices. He asked: "If they don't go along, how long can you stick to your price increase?" "It would definitely affect us, and I don't know how long we can maintain our position," Blough replied.

He wouldn't hazard a guess as to how many days, but when the questioner persisted he repeated: "It would make it very difficult for us." The No. 1 steelman gave no sign, however, that he seriously contemplated such a development. Nevertheless an administration campaign was launched in what one official called an effort to quarantine the price increase; in other words to discourage any inflationary trend by applying force of public opinion. Kennedy Continued from page 1 ships Saturday morning.

Fish Deaths Set At 500 Final estimates of the number of German brown trout which died at Crystal Lake recently ranged from 450 to 500. District Fish Manager Paul Schultz said today that he and Conservation Warden Glenn Pnn- ple completed the removal oper ation inursaay night. Schultz said indications were the trout died shortly after they were pianiea in the lake near Liny Hay, March 22. He said it would be impossible to determine the cause of the death. lie pointed out the loss of the 450 to 500 fish would not seriously affect the fishing on Crystal Lake this year.

Eight thousand rainbow trout were planted in the lake last fall and 5,000 German browns on March 22. There were no losses in the rainbows planted and the 450 to 500 dead German browns were the small specimens planted in March. Schultz said a planting in Lake Ellen was taken from the same truck load as the March planting in Crystal Lake, but that he had no reports of losses there. Pin Needier MONROE, Wis. (UPI)-A young magazine salesman was ordered out of town Thursday by police who thought he was "needling" customers with his premium offer.

Police said he told prospective buyers he was working his way through medical school and offered to return to give them free penicillin shots when he completed his studies. Slccl Continued from page had advanced against the price-rise. McNamara said it is at the direction of Kennedy that the Pentagon is looking for substitutes for steel. He said iron and steel prices have increased 90 per cent since J947 while nonferrous metals have gone up only 40 per cent. Replying indirectly to one of Blough's arguments, McNamara said the amount of steel bought directly by the military is relatively small, most on it coming through contractors.

Disagrees With JFK disagreeing with an estimate by Kennedy that the defense cost could come to $1 billion, estimated that on the basis of direct Defense Department purchases of from 3 to 3': million tons a year, the $6 a ton increase would amount to only about $20 million worth a year. To one question, McNamara said that he considers the steel price increase "an unjustified development and I state that on the basis of both my experience here and in industry." McNamara was president of the Ford Motor Co. when he was appointed defense secretary. met with newsmen only about 10 minutes, rushing to the conference after a meeting with Kennedy and then hurrying back to the White House for the broader talk on steel. The calling of a New York grand jury to go into the matter had been disclosed previously, and Atty.

Gen. Robert F. Kennedy discussed Thursday the possibility of court action aimed at breaking up U.S. Steel on the ground that it has grown so big it exercises too much industry domination. U.S.

Steel No Comment In New York U.S. Steel had no comment on the holdout by Inland Steel. In response to the whole series of developments steels gave ground on the New York Stock market todav. U.S. Steel was down about 2 points in early af ternoon.

In another Washington develop ment, it was learned the White House is rushing preparation of a special economic document challenging the claims of a steel industry majority that the price rise is justified. The document, which some officials refer to as a "white paper." may be issued later today or during the weekend. Work on the paper is being coordinated by Kennedy's Council of Economic Advisers. Experts on the council staff and at the Treasury Department be gan making statistical studies of the steel industry's cost-price situation almost as soon as U.S Steel announced its price boost. Lines Of Attack The possible lines of government attack, now officially confirmed by the Justice Department are: Possible criminal penalties acainst the price-boosting firms and their executives if the government can find and prove any price collusion.

2. A move to dismember the industry's giant, U.S. Steel if the government can convince a federal court that it "so dominates the industry that it controls prices and should be broken up." Administration officials disputed or shrugged off the 55-min-ute defense of the price rise made by U.S. Steel's chairman, Roger M. Blough, in a televised news conference Thursday in New York.

There was no comment from President Kennedy. Blough said the increases were necessary "to the welfare, the strength and the vitality of the nation." They would, he said partially correct a profit squeeze that handicaps American steel in meeting stiffening world competi tion. Blough said he was surprised at the angry reaction of Kennedy on Wednesday, since no assur anccs were asked by the White House and none were given that prices would not be raised after last week's steel labor settlement. Kenncdv. who cave his bless ings to the union contract agree mcnt and called It non-inflationary, blasted the price hike as an unjustifiable and irresponsible profit grab at the expense of the national interest.

Ever since, the scurrying of Justice Department agents and lawyers has been conspicuous Thursday night it began to make a pattern, as Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy cave out a few crumbs of information. First, he announced he had or dered a grand jury investigation in New York of the firecracker chain of virtually identical price Increases set off by U.S.

She crawled out of the vehicle and walked to a nearby farm home to summon help.

She was badly shaken up and bruised but apparently escaped serious injury. Snow Continued from page 1 day, only a minimum of hand shoveling was necessary at downtown intersections. Lake Michigan, throughout the night, kicked up a noisy "fuss," with high waves breaking over the harbor piers. Residents along the lakefront said the roar of the lake was never louder. The Coast Guard, however, reported no property damage on the waterfront.

The two-inch snowfall, mixed with .39 inches of water, as measured by Weather Bureau instruments at The Press, was the most here since the nearly nine inches of Feb. 18 when the winter's worst storm paralyzed the area. New snowfall during March totaled about eight inches, the most being the 3.8 inches that fell on the 5th. Most April, 1961 snow came on the 16th 2.5 inches. Low temperature during the Thursday storm was 27 degrees.

The mercury had climbed to 32 at 8 a.m. today, and to 40 by noon. Elsewhere in the state Eau Claire received seven inches of snow atop greening lawns. Milwaukee had four inches, but part of it melted as it fell and resulted in a two-inch snow cover early today. Other amounts included La Crosse and Racine three inches, Lone Rock and Madison two, Wausau and Bcloit-Rockford one, and a trace at Green Bay.

Administration officials continue to warn, however, that the Soviets, or the East Germans with Soviet support, can precipitate a new crisis at any moment by renewing harassment of traffic, particularly in the air corridor. Reports circulated in West Germany that Kennedy had sent a personal message to Chancellor Konrad Adenauer on the problem of Berlin access and that Adenauer was planning to come to Washington to consult with the President. Officials here denied there was any presidential message to Adenauer and said they had no knowledge of any plans by the chancellor to come to Washington.
