Amer lean, British and French command era in Berlin Joined tonight In a new, vigorous protest to the RUB stuns over the hindrance ot true! traffic between-the city and west ern Germany.

The decision to send a sharp not to the Soviets was reached after a three-hour special meeting of thi western K-oinniandatura. A previous protest has beei gnored until now. The action came as the Russia guards on the Helmstedt horde appeared to ho tightening a "bab hloclrade" to the point where onl one truck was being passed laroug every fifteen minutes. An American army truck convo crossed early today without di ficulty, but nearly 400 Germa trucks wore caught in the ja which began five days ago.

The U. B. Army instituted a once-a-week convoy to Berlin last summer to test periodically Russia's good faith in ending the Berlin blockade. The Soviet sl-ow-down was more vigorous against German traffic today than any time since it began without warning last Sunday. CIO Denies Labor Costs Cause of Steel Increase By Arthur Edson Washington, Jan.

CIO Steelworkers Union said today recent steel price increases were caused hy an industry "public be hanged attitude" and not by higher labor costs. Some top steel executives said yesterday that even with last month's $4 a ton general increase, prices are two low for the future health of tho industry. But the union said the boost was "unwarranted" and "indefensible." Otis Brulmker, research director and spokesman for tho union that claims 1.000.000 members, said the price rise was "far in excess of any demonstrable cost increases." Brubaker's statement--G5 statistic-laden pages--was prepared for delivery before the senate-house economic committee, which has been looking into the prico boosts. Until today, tho committee had heard only from the heads of the steel companies. Without exception they cited higher costs, especially the new pension and insurance programs the steelyvorkers got after their strike last fall.

These programs are to be financed entirely by the steel companies. Four of these firms--Inland Steel, National Steel, Jones and Laughlin and Alleghany Ludlum filed statements with the senate group expressing the view that prices for their products are not high enough.

Mrs. Troxel wu to climb out ot car Ihm wlnc-ow and brought tack to 67 puslnt; molnrMa), Milliken, Jan. 00 residents of tlila community at- cndlng a meeting at the high chool Wednesday night rose to lelr feet to approve unanimously motion asking Weld county's chool district consolidation com- littee to reconsider the proposed olmatown-Milllken merger. Meantime, a group of citizens will repare for the committee a list reasons why Mllllken's residents their district should not be an- exed to Johnstown.

These reasons will be presented the committee at its Feb. 4 meet- ng, which will be attended by the Illllken school board. Many ol the casons were expressed at the Wednesday night meeting, called give Milliken residents an op- ortunity to air their objections be- ore a subcommittee of the 15-man eorganlzatlon committee. Schropp Questions Committee Pointing out that two members of he subcommittee had stated they did not believe the county committee had been consistent In Its jroposed reorganliatlon plan, Lea- er Schropp, the mayor, asked If It ould be unfair to request the committee to reconsider the merger. "That is right, the committee ias been inconsistent," Carl Mosn- erg, committeeman said.

"I'm sure will be talked over and I think the committee will be fair In re considering the matter." Another committeeman, Herman Carlson, a Johnstown resident, re marked: "I know you folks don" want to go over I kno? we wouldn't want to come ove here." The county committee agree: about two weeks ago to send a subcommittee to Wednesday night' meeting after a delegation of Mill ken residents had appeared befor it in Greoley and asked for a hear Ing. The subcommittee assigne was composed of Walter Bain chairman of the county committee G. B. Winder, Mosshorg and Car son'. Ralph Waldo, Jr.

Presldei Ben Kaiser, school board pres dent, Introduced Ralph Waldo, Jr of Greeley, board attorney, wh presided. The first part of th meeting was devoted to a discu. sion of the school district consol dntion bill provisions and alms Bain. Then the Milliken i spoke their minds on two points: 1. Milliken Is capable of educa ing Its own children and Its hig school graduates are comparabl with those of other high schools.

2. If tho Milliken system has an shortcomings, It should be given apportunity to correct them, in stead of being required to merg with Johnstown. Speaking on the first poln James F. Mellon said: "I've bee here long enough to know our grad uates are educated as fine as thos in any other district." "In what way do you think have neglected our educational sponsibllities?" Schropp a Bain. Bain Stresses Better Opportunltie Bain explained ho did not believ Milliken had neglected Its educi tlonal responsibilities.

He said felt, however, that Milliken hig school students would have bette educational opportunities at John town because the merger would prt vide a broader program and mor and better Drained teachers. The committee chairman also ri minded his listeners that th boards of education in the now di: tricts will determine the atteni ance areas and added: "I believ that any board of education that sensible would leave the grad school here." In comparing high school pn grams, the Milliken people put en phasis on their FFA program, whic Johnstown does not have. "Wl they get FFA training there?" Dav Gaw Carlson replied that a FFA building was among plans the Johnstown system. Carlson said Johnstown coul easily absorb all the Milliken pre students but said its grade schoo would be overcrowded if it had take 15. to 20 students.

Bain believed that, in all, con solidaticn would not be more ex pensive, but he said some district would obviously have more ex pente because they would have to dd or expand transportation sys- ims. Among the audience was a teeing that It would be easier lor Milken to add several new teachers nd correct any deficiencies in Its ystem than paying otf its bonded ndebtedness and then turning round and meeting another bond sue lor expansion at Johnstown. Johnstown Voted Bonds Carlson said that while Johns- own had voted a $170,000 bond is- ue, no action has yet been taken sell the bonds. During the comparison of high chool programs, Bain said Johns- own is an accredited school with le North Central association and, ccordlng to the figures, has more eachers with degrees than Million. Milliken is accredited with the University of Colorado.

Bain said he believed there doubt the school reorganization 111 was constitutional. The county ommlttee cannot be compelled to ebrganlie districts, he said. Howver, the law provides for an over- ill reorganisation plan lor the state d.nd any unfinished work left by he county committees will probably be undertaken by the state egislature, he warn.ed. Elmer Langston made the motion the board to reconsider merger.
