Without waiting for that basic industry to announce a price rise, Johnson has let it tie known that he wouldn’t like it. He has warned that a steel price boost “would strongly conflict with out national interest in pirce Stability.” ■ The President’s method for . doing this was" to set forth his views—reading from a memorandum—during a news conference at his ranch in Texas Saturday. He did so in reply to a question from a local reporter who presented his query after being handed a note, during the news conference, by White House Perss Secretary Geoerge E. Reedy. “Mr. President, would you care to comment on any of those recent rumors about a possible price increase in steel?” the question went. “ts the reports had any basis, it would be a matter of very serious concern because steel is very important in our economy,” Johnson said in beginning a long reply. He concluded by saying; ’’’l am confident that leaders of the steel industry will act responsibly in the national interest. I have had no indication Whatever that there is going to” be any other action.” Neither the reporter nor Johnson specified the qrigin of reports that steel “"prices might go up. But White House aides say they were aware of widespread publication of such speculation, largely on financial pages. A presidential aide said he knew of no* direct soundings from the steel industry to the White House, in that regard. Mindful of the showdown in April, 1962, when the late President John F. Kennedy took frontal action to Mock a price increase by the bellwether U.S. Steel Corp., Johnson tried as of Saturday to lay some cards on the table before heavy betting begins.

Monday With Marilyn By Marilyn Knudsen

“Coming and Going" might make an appropriate title for the column this week. Looking around, it appears that quite a few people have participated in some away-from-home activity lately. Susan Ostermeyer, aaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Ostermeyer, has returned from Muncie, where she took part in an art workshop at Ball State College. As a senior next September, Susan will take art under the tutelage of Hubert Feasel at Decatur high school. Already her activity and talents have been put to good use making posters and decorating, when her class has sponsored dances at the center. When people come to Decatur from foreign lands, it seems like an unusual occurrence in our city. Indeed, it may be, but two different parties from abroad arrived recently. From Thailand, the first is Suvimol Trisuwan, the exchange student who will be spending this coming school year in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Jacobs. , With her adopt ’d sister. Jane Jacobs, Sue will enter Decatur high school as a senior. The other arrival from foreign lands consists of two Decatur residents, John Beeler and Richard Fravel, who returned to this city after having toured Europe with a church affiliated group. Girl Scouts Home Girl Scout Senior Troop No. 112, everyone will be happy to know, did arrive safely home. For those of the readers who are not acGiven Jail Sentence For Assault Battery Robert W. Johnson, 722 N. 12th street, was fined a total of S3O and sentenced to 30 days in jail in city court this morning on complaint by his wife Saturday afternoon for assault and battery.

quainted with these girls’ efforts or their alms, this troop has been on its way toward a trip for the past two years. Selling cookies, peanuts, and candy, and holding carwashes and an auction, they have been saving and hoarding troop money for a trip to a dude ranch in Colorado. This summer was the time for all of their wtork to be climaxed. All of th*m: Sheri Affolder, Susan August, Diane August, Alyce Deßolt, Darlene Richards, Dorothy Smith, Kathryn Rash, Marilyn Harman, Carolyn Harman, Barb Rydell, Jane Jacobs, Sandy Affolder. of Portland, Stephanie Kaeser of Berne, and the chaperones, Mrs. Robert August, Miss Kate Sudduth, and Mrs. Gene Rydell, “our leader,” were thrilled with the trip. What was described' by some of the girls as “an extended slumber party” included, among others, these activities: a moonlight ride to a mountain, the inevitable encounter with a Boy Scout troop, a visit to Estes Park, an overnight trip on horseback, (the horses were frightened by a thunderstorm when they got there and ran away,) a horse show, a square dance, and an Hawaiian luau. Somewhere in between they even managed to kill a rattlesnake. In the "going” part of this column. Linda Kiess left today on a. plane visit with Mary Lou Sharp Jones in Flowery Branch, Georgia. Since this is, to quote her, —“Die first time I've ever flown,” she is, quite naturally, very excited about the trip. »• IV Seasons RESTAURANT at VILLA LANES U.
