Steel Strike InSlstDay, Leaders Meet NEW YORK (UPI) — The Steel strike entered Its 51st day today in an atmosphere of secrecy concerning the exact status of the prolonged contract negotiations. Chief Federal Mediate Joseph F. Finnegan refused to say whether any progress is being made toward a settlement of the strike. The top-level bargaining teams of the United Steelworkers Union and the 12 strikebound steel firms meet again today in joint session and Finnegan assured newsmen that union chief David J. McDonald and R. Conrad Cooper, chief industry negotiator, would be at the bargaining table. / Both McDonald and Cooper refrained from meeting the press after Wednesday’s morning and afternoon sessions and allowed Finnegan to be the spokesman. All Finnegan would say he put in a brief prepared statement. He said "views were exchanged by the negotiating teams” based upon their study during a five-day recess which both sides agreed upon last Thursday. In Washington, the AFL-CIO Industrial Union Department (IUD) voted one million dollars Wednesday to support the steel workers in their strike. The decision was made by the IUD executive board, made up of leaders of 68 unions representing seven million members. Walter P. Reuther, AFL - CIO vice president and a member of the board, said the amount constituted a "first down payment” to the strikers. He said “we consider the steel strike a strike of the entire labor movement.” Further support for the 500,000 striking steel workers will be arranged at the AFL-CIO convention in San Francisco later this month, Reuther said. A survey by the Health Insurance Institute shows that seven out of every ten families with health insurance make use of their policies at one time or another.

PLAIN EDUCATION FOR 'PLAIN PEOPLE'— -Ohio’s Amish children soon will return to schooling far different than that received by public and other parochial school children. The “Plain People” have their own schools, and they say their children need only to learn to read, write and do simple sums to be good farmers and housewives. The Amish sect had its beginnings in 1525, when a group of pious Swiss met at Zurich, Switzerland, and agreed to turn back the clock of time to the days of Christ They still cling to that goat * (Central Preet)
