2 KOKOMO (Ind.) TRIBUNE Wednesday, Oct. 28, 1953 Sieel Market Changes Caich Buyers 'Asleep' NEW YOKK W5--Changes in the steel market have caught some steel buyers flat-footed but alert purchasing men are saving their companies money, Iron Ago, the national rnetalworking weekly, said today. The publication noted "buying confusion." as shown by the following: "Some buyers got hung up with commitments for conversion, foreign or premium priced steel after it was available at regular mill prices. Some are paying extra freight for material that could be bought closer to home. Some trimmed inventories too quickly, some too deeply.

Some have not seized the opportunity to avail themselves of alternate sources of supplies without materially increasing costs." The weekly predicted good steel business for at least the next six or eight months. ain City, Wayne County represen- ative which hosted the convention ast year, returned the response. A. special offeratory ceremony also vas a part of the session, and mnor memberships Were present- id. Mrs.

She believes that broken homes often are caused by the problem. Asked whether she thought that dealing with the problem through the nation's youth would aid liquor control in the future, Mrs. Hays replied: "That is too much for ine to forecast." But she added that education programs--carried on through films and printed material as well as Temperance Council leadership--should make for a better informed youth which "would be more likely to attack the problem constructively." She added a sincere hope that the youth of citizens of tomorrow" as Mrs.

Hays termed them--would be able "to prevent the mess we have today." Further hitting at the seriousness of the drinking problem, Mrs Hays expressed the belief that magazine advertisements and radio and television squibs concerning liquor do much to influence drinking. She added that too much mention of liquor Is being found in the news columns as well. Carrying out her principal poin' that "the problem never will be solved until every citizen accepts the responsibility to correct it," Mrs. Hays suggested ways in which persons could accomplish the switch. She stated that each individual would do the correcting in his own way.

Some would leac temperance youth groups, others set an example, aid with films and temperance education, or even by contributing money to keep the fight going on. Tuesday night's program opened with an organ prelude by Mrs. Adah Johnson, after yhich one of the session's highlights took place.

Church Leaders Worried About Fate of U.N. By GEOKGE W.

CORNELL CLEVELAND leaders today made it plain they're worried about the fate of the United Nations. Speaker after speaker at an interdenominational conference rose to decry activity in the country and to declare their confidence in the world organization. The U.N., said Dr. Kichard Fagley, New York Congregationalist, is "threatened by a jungle of dashing: nationalism, social systems and power blocs." Mrs. Edith Sampson, Chicago Episcopalian, said, "The future of the United Nations is at stake.

The U.N. deserves the full support of the churches we represent."

She said the danger that another war probably would bring extinction to most of the earth's people had provided a "tremendous incentive" to make the U.N.

work, and added: We are paying a great deal less for this first effort at insurance to promote the possibility of a peaceful world than we would pay for a new war." Because of the big shire of U.N. cost paid by this country it is a "natural feeling" to have misgivings, she said, but few people have taken the trouble to find out Americans are getting more than their money's worth. The children's fund and the U.N. health organization have saved thousands of lives, the technical assistance program is building new world markets vital to our economic future, and the effectiveness of U.N. collective security Tia.g been shown in the Korean War, Mrs.

Roosevelt said.

be learned. J. Ralph Mason, member of the city board, said he thought the matter should be handled in an orderly manner. "It shouldn't be rushed if we are to obtain the greatest benefits." Stating that types and prices of surveys differ widely, Mason asserted that-before voting: on the subject, he would like to know: (1) what a survey team has to offer; (2) how much its operation will cost; (3) when the team can begin and finish work here; and (4) the intensity of the study of the problem. Other board members concurred, and township and city school officials were in agreement in the selection of Indiana University to conduct a survey--if one is to be held here.

Both groups worked out arrangements to have Smith and Swihart plan a local meeting with an IU survey team to hear a detailed outline of operation. In the event that ITJ could not provide a team to survey the situation, prior to tho referendum, the group chose Purdue as an alternate school. State universities were given preference, in part, because members of the two administrative groups felt nearby schools would incur less expense in carrying out the survey. Other universities suggested by the Jaycees to conduct an impartial survey include Ohio State, Columbia and Chicago. Harold Land, Jaycee president, told members of the -two groups that his organization will' support whatever decision may be reached by the survey team on the advisability of consolidation.

"The Jaycees," he said, "have no bone to pick with anyone." He reminded -both groups that time is particularly important since only five months remain before the scheduled referendum. Land stated that the Jaycees feel that while many voters have biased viewpoints pro and con consolidation, "most voters have not yet formed an opinion and woulc like to go along with what is best for the community." In Monday night's presentations of the Jaycee request, representatives of the organization explained that survey operational costs would have to be borne by school administrations, and stated that Wilbur the babies.
