Major Steel Firms Deny Fix Charges NEW YORK (UPI) — The nation’s two largest steel producers U.S. Steel and the Bethlehem Steel Co. issued denials Wednesday to the allegations that they and six other steel producers had fixed prices on carbon steel sheet. Federal indictments issued Tuesday said the eight companies had conspired to- set prices between 1955 and 1961. Bethlehem charged Wednesday in a statement that the indictment was part of a government campaign to harass the industry. Bethlehem’s vice president, Edmund F. Martin, said the Justice Department was not seeking “to correct any illegal or improper present day situation but only to harass the industry for practices which, even under the allegations of the indictment, have been abandoned.’’ Martin said “we deny any present or former employe of Bethlehem was guilty of violations of the anti-trust laws that are charged. We propose to plead not guilty and to defend the case to the utmost of dur ability ... we are confident of ultimate success.” U.S. Steel, the No. 1 producer, said it was preparing to wage a vigorous battle against the charges. Also named in the indictment were the National Steel Corp, and the Great Lakes Steel Corp., a division of National; the Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp.; he vl4 14 14 14 Corp., a division of National; the Republic Steel Corp.; and the Wheeling Steel Corp.

The fair board went into special session Wednesday afternoon following a long distance telephone call which brought the offer of the singers from General Artists of America. Publicity Director Don Davis said the board had just recessed after approving for a Saturday-Sunday show Aug. 29 and 30 by Tennessee Ernie Ford. He said the Beatles will go on tour in the' United States beginning Aug. 17, but the Indiana State Fair was the only fair at which* they would appear. After the board went into the special session, it took only five minutes to okay the contract with the singers.
