Washington ln common with
virtually all other Americans, I
am glad that the controversy
which has been raging for many
months between the big steel
companies and the big steel un
ion has been settled. I regret,
however, that I have misgiv
ings concerning what effect this
settlement will have upon the!
inflationary spiral which threat-]
ens so much disaster to our]
economy. Moreover, I,have mis-!
givings in respect to the man
ner in which the settlement was
reached and its possible effect!
upon the future of free bargain-1
ing between management and la- i
bor.
The Public's Stake In Seel. It
is impossible to, overmagnify the
importance of steel to the Amer
ican economy. Every American
utilizes ea'ch day many products
of the steel industry. Further
more, the production of an ade
quate amount of steel is abso
lutely necessary ito our national
defense.
All of us who believe in the
free enterprise system have these
basic convictions regarding the
steel indusW
1. The big steel companies are
entitled to a lair return on their
investment.
2. Those who labor in the
steel industry are entitled to a
fair share of the fruits of their
labor.
3. The public is entitled to
purchase the products of the
steel industry at a fair price and
cannot do so unless the profits
of the companies and the wages
of those who labor in the indus
try are fixed by economic fac
tors instead of political consid
erations.
Steel Settlement Made in Se
cret. The steel settlement was
made in secret. We have no
knowledge of what transpired in
the meetings which resulted in'

the settlement. Only these three
, significant facts have been re-
I vealed in respect to it: ‘
j 1. After resisting the demands
j of the big steel union for many
months on the ground that they
I were inherently inflationary, the
; big steel companies suddenly
! surrendered and agreed to sub-
I stantial increases in wages and
I fringe benefits, most of which
| are to take effect after the gen
eral election in November, 1980.
2. Credit for bringing about the
settlement is being given to two
lof the most politically-minded
I men in America: The Vice
j President and the Secretary of
I Labor.
3. The public is assured that
the companies have agreed not
to increase the prices of steel
products “at tnis time”.
Does The Settlement Protect
The Public Interest? Those who
made the steel settlement give us
no answer to this question.
Moreover, they shed no light on
these additional questions: Wasj
the settlement dictated by eco
nomic or political considerations?
What is the meaning cf the re
peated assurance that the big,
steel companies have agreed not
to increase the prices of steel
products “at this time”.
We must leave the answers to
these questions to present specu- j
lation and future events. But!
one thing can be inferred with |
certainty. The settlement was:
not reached by free bargaining. |
It was dictated by the Execu-j
tive Branch of the Federal Gov-'
ernment acting through two of
its most politically-minded mem-j
bers.
Present speculation leaves one
with the discomforting thought 1
that the assurance that the steel]
companies will not raise the 1
prices of steel products “at this
time” means that the steel com- 1
panies have merely obligated:

themselves to maintain present
prices until after the general
election in November. And
present speculation also leaves
one with the disconsoling appre
. hension that the public interest
"has been ignored nr this mat
ter, and that when election day
has come and gone the settle
ment will add new fuel to the
fire of inflation, which has con

Plan Planting Os
Peanuts For 1960
Seed and Fields Point
ed Out as Very Im
portant Factors For
Good Yield
'Christmas having passed and
1959 coming to an end, most
farmers are turning their atten
tion to a New Year, to new ac
tivities and responsibilities. This
applies to all the activities o'"
ihe farm and with most people
t is time to plan for the 1960
deanut crop even though plant
ing season is still four months
away.
It is assumed that the seed
saved for planting the 1960 crop
are stored in a good, safe place
so that they will maintain their
quality until planting time. The
most important problem which
should require the attention of
the peanut grower at the present
time is selecting the fields on
which the 1960 crop will be
planted, testing the soils to de
termine whether or not lime anc 1
potash will be needed. Soil
tests should be made immediate
ly so that potash and lime can
be applied if found necessary at
the earliest possible moment
Through the concentrated soil
testing program in many coun
ties last year, many of the pea
nut growers know the soil analy
ses and also know that they
should have already applied lime
and potash. Most growers ap
ply 100 to 200 pounds of potash
per acre, broadcast prior to
planting their peanuts, whether
the soil test reveals . the need
for potash or not. If potash is I
going to be applied, it Should!
be done at the very first oppor- j
tunity and disced in and allowed!
time to dissolve and penetrate ]
the soil prior to planting, as pot
ash is taken up deep in the soil
and not on the surface of the
ground. ~
This past 1959 season should
have convinced most growers

that a careful selection cf the]
fields in which peanuts ate go-!
ing to' be planted is mo», im- :
portant. The fields should be:
those on which corn, small grain !
or cotton was planted in 1959.'
They should be well drained and ;
free from low places which ac-!
cumulate water during the
heavy rains. It is true that ]
there is a problem confronting i
many farmers in getting whole
fields which meet these require

well to exclude the low places
