‘Goo-Goo Eyes’ Law Broad Ripple Bags Fresh Egg, 74

HOUSTON, Mar. 29 (UP)—Houston’s city ordinance for the protection of womanhood against male “goo-goo eyes’—provided they're undesired—claimed

another victim today.

A T4-year-old egg peddler who failed to make a sale, then tried to sell himself, was ordered to trial to answer charges he violated the law. : An attractive, 48-year-old grandmother, Mrs. Jack ‘Miller, complained that Arthur Waugh came to her door and tried unsuccessfully to sell her some fresh eggs. Failing that, she said, he got fresh himself. “He said he was a little old, but that he'd sure like to do some hugging and kissing,” Mrs. Miller cofn-

plained to police.

U. S. Due To Hike Steel Prices $9 Ton

Government Sees No Way Out

By United Press

WASHINGTON, Mar. 20— The government was reported ready today to permit a steel

price rise which apparently

would forestall an industry-wide strike threatened for Apr, 8.

Top officials from Defense Mobilizer Charles E. Wilson down réfused to say what steps were being taken, but sources here said Mr. Wilson had convinced President Trumah that there was no way out except to grant the steel industry price increases sufficient to offset the pay raises recommended by a Wage Stabilization Board for Philip Murray's 650,000 CIO United Steelworkers.

Some sources predicted the price hike would be about $5 a ton, but it was understood the increases would be spredd in small installmnets over 18 to 24 months and would vary from company to company. . The Wage Board has recommended wage boosts and “fringe” benefits totaling 26 cents an hour for the steelworkers. But the raises would be paid in three instaliments over the next 18 months, and the settlement plan now in the works would spread the price increases over a slightly longer period. The odds against a steel strike lengthened yesterday when Mr. Wilson and his top stabilization aids—Economic Stabilizer Roger L. Putnam and Price Contfoller Ellis Arnall—held an all-day huddle with Mr. Truman and White House officials.

Reds Accuse Nuns Of ‘Corruption’

ROME, Mar. 29 (UP)— Sister Vincent de Lude of the Roman Catholic Sisters of Charity of Detroit, has been accused of ‘“‘corruption” by the Chinese Communists, it was reported today. Sister Vincent, who has worked for 28 years at the Catholic hospital at Kanchow, was accused at a Communist rally held at the hospital Feb. 24, the International Fides Service reported. It was alleged that she improperly distributed funds when the Communists took over the hospital, was “careless” in distributing medical supplies and failed to complete a new wing of the hospital, the news service said. Three other American Nuns, Sister Emily Kolb, Baltimore; Sister Catherin O'Neill, Philadelphia, and Sister Eugenia Beggs, for whom no home town was given, also are at the hospital, it was added.

Gen, Manuel Asenslo, Air Force budget = director, said the money is to entertain foreign officials and ‘“perpetuate a better understandin g of the defense program” by selected, influential Americans. All this is in the budget as miscellaneous current expense. It's part of a much bigger— $40,780,000 — “contingency appropriation.” Gen. Asensio told a House Air Force Appropriations Subcommittee recently that the contingency funds are “of an emergency nature , , . for extraordinary military expenses.” John J, McLaughlin said that his boss, Air Secretary Tho K. Finletter, has ordered “real austerity” in entertainment. He added that he (Mr. McLaughlin) handles the money “and I have the reputation of (befiiving) as if they were my own dollars.”

IT WAS chilly when little Max went to bed last night. : To warm his tootsies, the 6-year-old Southport boy unhooked a reading lamp from the head of the bed and put it under the covers. Then Max fell asleep. Early today he woke up in a swelter and yelled for his mother to turn down the heat. Max had reason to complain—the whole bed was afire. His mother rushed the boy into another room. Perry Township firemen put out the blaze after it gutted the bedroom at a loss of about $300. ~~ Mr, and Mrs. Max Shanklin Sr., who live in Venoy Road near Southport Road, promised Max an extra blanket tonight. : :
