Miami Residents Warned Os Rapist MIAMI (UPD — Residents of northwestern Miami were warned to be on the lookout today for a hooded rapist who has attacked three women in their homes in the last seven weeks. Sheriff Tom Kelly said there was no cause for general alarm but advised that at least “ordinary precautions” should be taken when strangers are seen. Authorities Tuesday confirmed reports of the three rapes. They had been keeping the case secret in an effort to trap the rapist. , The first attack occurred about seven weeks ago; the latest was last Friday. Each was made in the early morning hours by a stocky man masked in a closefitting white hood with slits for eyeholes. In each instance, the rapist carefully bound his victim's husband, lowered him gently to the floor and blindfolded him before attacking his wife. None of the victims reported seeing a weapon, Kelly said. But the intruder threatened to use both a gun and knife which he said he carried concealed in bis

NE WYORK (UPD — David J. McDonald, president of the United Steelworkers Union, announced today that the union has “taken prompt and vigorous action” to end unauthorized strikes by its members in various parts of the country. He said that telegrams signed by the international officers have been dispatched "directing the immediate withdrawal of all unauthorized picket lines and the resumption of operations.” Union members have set up picket lines at the Aliquippa, Pa., plant of Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp, and at U. S. Steel Corporation’s Fairless works at Morrisville, Pa., forcing the firms to bank furnaces and prepare to shutdown operations. Defy Contract Extension Sailor members of the union also were walking off ore boats in Great Lakes' ports and setting up picket lines at the docks. The strike action came in defiance of a two-week contract extension suggested by President Eisenhower and agreed to by the union and industry. McDonald announced his action to end the strikes as he prepared to resume negotiations this morning with management representatives. McDonald said that district directors and staff representatives of the union have been directed “to implement these telegrams on the spot.” He said he was confident that these steps wotlld rectify the situation. He said the union was determined to honor the extension agreements with the various steel companies. The agreements were to have expired at midnight Tuesday. The firms announced that they werq, banking furnaces/and prC-' paring to shut down all operations. A southern division of United States Steel Corp, announced it would begin shutting down Thursday, eventually idling 25,000 workers,'because of another union’s refusal to go along with the USW’s contract extension.

Virginia Schools Closed Officially FARMVILLE, Va. (UPD—The 21 public schools of rural Prince Edward County closed officially today in the most drastic move taken by a southern locality to avoid the effects of an integration decree. The schools in effect closed indefinitely when the school term ended early in June but the closure became formal today when the county began operating under its new budget. The school closures end public education for more than 1,600 Negro students and 1,300 whites in the “southside” Virginia county, a defendant in the Supreme Court’s historic 1954 desegregation ruling. The action puts 70 white and 70 Negro teachers out of work. The county Board of Supervisors voted a month ago to close the schools in defiance of an integration order handed down by the Fourth U-S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which canceled a sevenyear integration delay granted by Federal Judge Sterling Hutcheson of Richmond. The supervisors made their action final last Friday by adopting a budget for the fiscal year starting today with no money included for education. The same day. the Supreme Court refused a petition by the county school board asking a delay of the integration order pending a full appeal. The supervisors, at odds with the school board which considered the shutdowns too severe, refused even to wait for the Supreme Court’s ruling before adopting the budget. the steel union’s Local 5,000. Theodore Bochrobak, staff representative of the seaman’s division of the local, had warned that crews of 100 ore vessels would walk off their jobs at the expiration of contracts July 1. About 150 or 200 Steelworkers staged a midnight demonstration, without disrupting work, at the Aliquippa, Pa., plant of Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp. Observers believed the local was expressing resentment at abandonment of the USW’s longstanding “no contract, no work” policy.

New York Local Os Teamster Is Accused WASHINGTON (UPD— A New York Teamster local was accused today of dabbling in narcotics, nepotism and the use of nonunion labor. Ivan Wurms, a federal narcotics agent, testified before the Senate Rackets Committee, that Local 805 served as the downtown New York branch of a drug ring operating out of Florida and Cuba. Other witnesses said the local paid an exorbitant price for property at its summer resort in the Catskill Mountains of New York, and that non-union labor was employed there. Activities of local officials concerning the resort were made known to high Teamster officials, the witnesses said, but nothing was ever done to curb their practices.

Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex.) ordered overtime sessions today and Thursday, if necessary, to complete action on the bill before the July 4 weekend. Senate GOP Leader Everett M. Dirksen was working on a compromise substitute for an amendment that would allow the development loan fund to borrow five billion dollars over a five-year period. Interest: House Democratic leaders considered whether to push their compromise plan to permit higher interest rates on government bonds in the face of mounting opposition from rank-and-file Democrats. Solid Republican support for the administrationbacked plan assured enough votes to win approval in the House Ways & Means Committee. Artists: The House Committee on Un-American Activities opened hearings on the alleged Communist connections of artists whose work will be displayed at the U.S. exhibit in Moscow this summer. Chairman Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.) charged earlier that 34 of the 67 artists “have records of affiliation with Communist fronts causes.* * Civil Rights: Senate Republicans pressured Democratic leader Lyndon B. Johnson for action on civil rights legislation. Sen Jacob K. Javits (R-N.Y.) said time was running out for consideration of rights proposals this session. Sen. Kenneth B. Keating (R-N.Y.) accused Johnson earlier of trying to “thwart” civil rights action; The Fingernails To keep dirt from getting under the edges of the fingernails while gardening, or doing other dirty work, rub the ends of the fingers over some sandle wax, taking care to get it well under the nails.
