Gasoline Dealers Reach Price Pad Agree On Prices, Stamps Ruled Out A gasoline price war was averted in Decatur, dealers agreed not to use trading stamps, and all independent dealers agreed to a twocent price spread below the big gasoline companies in a two-hour meeting of the Decatur gasoline retailers association Monday night. The meeting was held at the Decatur Super Service station on Monroe street between Second and Third streets. Chalmer Deßolt, president of the association, presided. Several Decatur dealers were giving stamps with their gasoline purchases, forcing other dealers to a lower price. Also, some independent dealers were below others in price. During the meeting these differences were ironed out. The regular price of gasoline in the Decatur stations will now’ be 30.9 cents a gallon, with independent stations two cents under this. Deßolt pointed out that l?y this action Decatur had averted a serious dealer’s war, in which the margin on a gallon of gasoline would have dropped from five cents to one cent, as it has in Fort Wayne. This would cause the station owners to lose money on the sales, if they had to hire labor. Trade in a good town — Decatur

MacMillan And Ike To Confer On Wednesday Prime Minister Os Great Britain To Arrive Wednesday WASHINGTON (UP)—President Eisenhower laid the groundwork today for high strategy talks with British Prime Minister Harold MacMillan, possibly to create a close scientific alliance coping with giant Russian advances in space missiles.. The President summoned Secretary of State Dulles (at 10 a.m. e.d.t.) to prepare for the threeday conference with MacMillan starting Wednesday. They also will discuss the sizzling TurkeySyria dispute brought to a boil by Russian propaganda. Backgrounding the talks were new congressional demands for pooling and increasing the Free World’s scientific brains and manpower to meet the missile-borne Soviet satellite. Sputnik Called A Bauble An off note came from Presidential Assistant Clarence B. Randall. He dismissed Russia’s Sputnik as a “silly bauble.” He said the United States could have been first in putting up a satellite if it had mixed its Sputnik program with military missies. While the Russian moon entered its 19th day of circling the earth, there were these other dvelopments: —Scientists at Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge. Mass., said the satellite and the rocket which put it into orbit would be more visible over the United States during the next three nights than ever before. —Sen. Henry M. Jackson <DWash.) proposed an eight-point plan to boost the scientific manpower pool of North Atlantic Treaty Organization nations. Proposes CivU Control —Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont. > proposed a civilian organization of scientists to take over the U.S. missile program from the military. He said the government also should subsidize the scientific education of “uniquely adaptable” students. There were reports in London that MacMillan would make a plea for the United States to share its atomic and missiles secrets with Britain. President Eisenhower called for close scientific teamwork between the two nations in a toast last week to visiting Queen Elizabeth 11. - Another Democrat Sen. Hubert B. Humphrey of Minnesota, called for a broad .investigation of “the mishandling of our defenses’’ by the administration. He is a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. There also was a direct demand to the President from Sen. Mike Monroney (D-Okla.) to restore immediately $170,000,000 “meat axed” from military weapons research and development. Monroney, in a letter to EisenIhower, said it was imperative he

ACCUSES HUGE (Continued from Fa<e On*) A Packinghouse Workers official said his union wanted raises of 26 to 46 cents an hour for the Morton workers. Rejects Company Request Long said one employe of Shefferman’s firm, Labor Relations Associates. worked with him to fight the Packinghouse Workers and another later signed up members for the Bakery Workers. Before Long testified, attorneys for the frozen-food firm—now a division of Continental Baking Co.tried to put the case on ice, claiming the testimony would prejudice their defense against National Labor Board charges filed against the firm by the Packinghouse Workers. The committee refused. Chairman John L. McClellan (D-Ark.) said the group tried not to interfere with criminal trials but could not defer its work for the outcome of a civil action. The Morton case was the opening gun in aa investigation of Shefferman, 70-year-old Chicago labor relations counsellor to some 300 firms across toe nation. Opposes Management Coercion McClellan said Shefferman's firm was ’’apparently dedicated to toe proposition that no employer need deal with a labor union unfriendly to their interests.” The chairman said the Taft-Hart-ley Act put restrictions on management as well as labor, and the committee would investigate whether there has been "a deliberate and calculated effort to circumvent and defeat these provisions on behalf of management. “We feel that the American worker has as much right to be free from management coercion as from labor union coercion in his decision whether or not to join a union," McClellansaid. Committee investigator Pierre Salinger said Shefferman's firm earned $2,481,798 in the six years ending in 1955 and had expenses of $2,379,568. Salinger said Shefferman drew $246,600 from his firm in the last six years and got another $48,953 from Sears Roebuck & Co. as its staff labor adviser. In the same period his son, Shelton Shefferman, got $211,808 from Labor Relations Associates, the investigator said. Tells of Opposition Eugene Peterson of Estherville, lowa, field representative of the packing house workers union, testified he never met such opposition as when he tried to organize the 300' employes of the Morton plant at Webster City in the summer and fall of 1955. He said an allegedly spontaneous committee called “We, the Morton Workers” passed out antiunion handbills, workers got more anti-union literature through the mail and,a few pro-union workers were fired. The union lost the election 196-103. Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.) said the Morton company would have faced extra wages of $200,000 a year if the Packinghouse

The American cancer society has awarded a new grant for cancer research, in the amount of $21,330. to Prof. Henry Mahler, Indiana University, Bloomington, according to Dr- John Spaulding, chairman of the Adams county unit of the Indiana division of the A.C.S. The society has contributed to Mahler's research for five years. The research of Prof. Mahler, of the Indiana University chemistry department, reflects the thoroughness with which the American cancer society attacks the cancer problem by supporting research “from the ground up.” Mahler’s work is aimed at explanation of
