Anti Semitic (Continued from Page 1) individuals with twisted and distorted minds who derive savage delight from participating in a kind of chain reaction of antisocial behavior." Dr. Mark and Rabbi Max Mayer, leader of a temple in Long Island that was smeared, said the incidents would probably increase but both predicted they would "soon blow over." "I don't attach any importance to it," said Rabbi Meyer. But another New York rabbi whose temple was defaced Rabbi David Goldberg of the Corona Jewish Center -charged "this is definitely an organized group which is no doubt getting ideas from reports of anti-Semitic incidents in Europe." Two swastikas also were painted on the windows of a vacant building which had been the headquarters of the Corona post of Jewish War Veterans. West German government officials were openly worried and strove to check the wave of hate which began with the desecration of a new synagogue in Cologne on Christmas Eve.

Only in West Berlin did the demonstrators come out in the open. Police broke up 25 neo-Nazi students who raised the swastika flag and sang Nazi songs 1 in a torch-lit rally Saturday night. In 'Austria persons smeared the word "Jews" on a Vienna synagogue and plastered swastikas in several cities and towns in the provinces. In Britain, police put a guard on the London apartment of Barnett Janner, president of the Jewish Board of Deputies and a member of Parliament, after a telephone caller told Mrs. Janner he represented the "British Nazi party" and "unless the Board of Deputies stops this protesting against what is happening in Germany, we are going to take strong action." "To prove we really mean business, the offices of the Jewish Chronicle and the Board of Deputies have been attacked," the man added.

Swastikas were smeared on the offices of the newspaper and the Jewish board, and windows were broken. Swastikas also appeared on the European headquarters of the World Jewish Congress in London, and on buildings in Glasgow, Manchester and Dartford. Just outside Melbourne, Australia, a stone was thrown through a window of a synagogue at St. Kilda. The rabbi blamed hooligans and said "the attitude of Australians towards us Jews as fellow citizens always has been above reproach." Swastikas were painted on railway stations in Hawthorn, another Melbourne suburb.

In Italy, an unsigned letter was left on the doorstep of a Milan synagogue threatening to blow it up. The word death was scrawled the wall of the Jewish center in Parma. Isolated anti Semitic incidents also were reported in Denmark, Belgium, Norway and France. Politically (Continued from Page 1) margin falls short of the two-thirds majority required to override a presidential veto. President Eisenhower used his veto power with telling effect last year, forcing the Democrats either to compromise or to give up on some of the measures they favored.

Americans for Democratic Action called on congressional leaders Sunday not to let the President's budget "take precedence over genuine solutions of the nation's most important problems." Samuel H. Beer, national chairman of ADA, which describes itself as an independent liberal political organization, said that "legislative policies of appeasement and compromise have produced neither good legislation nor clear issues." Wellsboroans (Continued from Page 1) then apparently lost control and veered into the southbound lane again, Emerson reported.

(AP) President Eisenhower will end a nine-day working vacation Tuesday with his budget and State of the Union messages in just about the form in which they will go to Congress.

Report Ike (Continued from Page 1) confirm the Argentine announcement. Last week Hagerty told reporters a Latin-Americn tour was under study. Earlier reports from Rio de Janeiro said Eisenhower was ed to fly from the United States to Brasilia, in east central Brazil, then fly on to Rio for a brief visit. According to the Rio reports, the President would then sail aboard a U.

S. cruiser to Montevideo, Uruguay, and Buenos Aires, then fly to Santiago, the Chilean capital. Relations betwen the United States and Brazil worsened last year when President Juscelino Kubitschke's government refused to put into effect economic reforms advocated by the International Monetary Fund as a condition for the granting of credits and eventual U. S. loans to Brazil.

Kubitschek made a friendly gesture in his New Year's address, however, saying there had been an improvement in relations with the United States. with its orchid-bedecked "Venus de Milo" float (bottom).

Steel (Continued from Page 1) whether the additional costs to the industry from the settlement would result in a steel price rise. "I do not care to discuss that subject," he replied. But Cooper joined with David J. McDonald, president of the United Steelworkers Union, in praising the efforts of President Eisenhower, Nixon and Mitchell to settle the prolonged dispute. Mitchell had said he and Nixon undertook mediation at the request of the President.

The steelworkers were averaging $3.11 an hour under their old contract. Although terms of the settlement agreement were officially withheld for the time being, as informed source in Pittsburgh told The Associated Press that it provides an estimated 39-cent package increase over the next 30 months. The informant did not break this down between wages and other benefits, such as pensions and insurance. Here in Washington, a union source described the package increase as close to 40 cents. The union source said it provides no increase in wages in the first six months, but calls for a 7 cent wage increase July 1 and a second 7-cent increase on July 1, 1961.

addition, there would be a twoIn tenths of one cent hourly hike in increments between the various job rates in the second year of the contract, and an added onetenth of one cent increment after the second year. That is, a base-rated worker would receive 7 cents increase, the worker rated just above him 7.2 cents and the next rated worker 7.4 cents. The contract was said to provide a limited provision for cost-of-living wage escalation, and the union has withdrawn its planned court suit for payment of a 4-cent hourly living cost increase which would have been due under terms of the contract which expired June 30. The 39 cents compared with an industry estimate that its last previous offer was a 30-cent package. The union had disputed the 30-cent figure, estimating the industry offer at 22 to 24 cents.

The marathon negotiation session began Sunday. Throughout the night there were various reports that a settlement was at hand. Shortly before 10 a.m., Mitchell made it official. Looking tired and haggard, the labor secretary received newsmen and announced that the industry and union had "voluntarily" accepted the terms he and Nixon had proposed. Cooper and McDonald sat beside Mitchell.

The place was the banquet room of the Sheraton-Carlton Hotel where the negotiations had been conducted. Without going into the terms, McDonald said the settlement means peace and prosperity for the steelworkers. He added that the union is "sound. safe and secure." Cooper said in a statement that "naturally we are relieved that this controversy is over and that the nationwide fear of another steel strike on Jan. 26 has been removed." Blinding (Continued from Page 1) Police warned against unnecessary travel due to visibility conditions.

Motorists in Buffalo turned on automobile lights as they traveled slowly through whitened streets. A damaging sleet storm last Monday caked most of the section in a thin-coat of ice, interrupting electric and telephone service to an estimated 40,000 homes. Before today's blustery storm, only service to isolated areas remained without service. Crews had hoped to restore all service by nightfall. The village of Brockport Sunday night ended a 72-hour state of emergency as service was resumed.

Lawrence (Continued from Page 1, ecutive, who asked not to be identified, said it will be mainly a review of the 1959 session's work. Lawrence was not expected to propose any new taxes, the source said. But, he added, the governor was expected to mention the 1959 Legislature built in a deficit of between 35 and 40 million dollars in curtailing relief, school aid and occupational 5 disease appropriations. There was a good likelihood, the source said, the governor would let the whole matter of deficiency appropriations go over until the 1961 session. As the start of the new legislative session neared, Republican and Democratic leaders in both the Senate and House agreed on at least one point it would be a short one.

After hearing Lawrence's 1 remarks, the lawmakers will recess for two weeks to allow a special committee to establish ground rules for the first annual session. Under the constitutional change setting up annual instead of biennial sessions, the meetings in evennumbered years are limited generally to consideration of revenue and appropriations measures. But they still can consider such matters as constitutional changes and executive nominations. The 1959 Legislature wasn't expected to produce any major news in the final hours even though it left a number of important issues unresolved before recessing. Chief among them was the problem of what to do about school subsidies.

A plan to increase state aid to schools is just about given up for lost in the 1959 session. The Senate passed a 16-million-dollar boost but the House has insisted on at least 55 millions. School groups have refused to support the 16-milliondollar figure. It is debatable whether the 1960 session can make any boosts in state aid to schools without changing the formula for distribution. Some legislative experts say the annual session couldn't take it up since its work is limited to appropriations and revenue measures.

Man, (Continued from cetta called it "a figment of his imagination." "This strengthens positively that this man imagined the whole matter," he said. "It was a figment of his own imagination and his own jealousies." Police said a threatening note, painted on sheet metal, which referred to "the long was found two weeks ago on a church vestibule door. It was written in Italian and police said it meant "the tall man." The note accused "the long man" of improper conduct, police said. Father Belle was 6 feet, 5 inches.

Detectives also found a .32 caliber bullet in the apartment. Father Belle was shot three times with a .32 caliber revolver but the murder weapon has not been found. Car Kills Couple ELKTON, Md. (AP) Raymond J. LaMountain, 57, and his wife, Loretta, 58, of Clintonville, N.
