Conference With Ike Brings New Steel Talks
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — Botn sides in the deadlocked steel dispute agreed under President Eisenhower's personal urging today to resume negotiations immediately.
The President promptly issued a statement expressing hope that an "agreement can be initiated" before he returns next week from his California vacation. Union leaders said they hoped they could report a settlement to the President tonight.
Mr. Eisenhower won the agreement after conferring first with industry leaders and then with United Steelworkers' President David J. McDonald and other union officials.
McDonald proposed that negotiations, which were broken off by the union last Friday, be resumed here this afternoon in an effort to end the 78-day strike.
There was no immediate reply from management.
In his three-paragraph statement, Mr. Eisenhower said:
"I have just completed talks with officials of several of the steel companies and of the Steelworkers Union.
"In view of the mounting impact of the strike on our nation's economy and on the jobs of hundreds of thousands of Americans, I sincerely
hope that an agreement can be initiated before my return to Washington next week.
"The purpose of the talks today was to help bring about a voluntary settlement of the steel strike which will be fair and just to all parties involved, including the public. I am persuaded that this is the kind of settlement that the American people want. It is the only kind that would be good for all Americans and for our whole economy."
White House News Secretary James C. Hagerty told newsmen that the President "was quite firm in his expressions to both sides."

Plane Explosion Kills 34 Persons
BUFFALO, Tex—(UPI)—A Lock-heed Electra plane, bound from Houston to New York, exploded in the air late last night, sailed across the sky like a flaming meteor and crashed in a scrub oak thicket.
All 34 persons on board, six crew members and 28 passengers, were killed. They were bound for Dallas, Washington and New York. Recovery crews found bodies and parts of bodies hanging from the oaks.
A state Department of Public Safety patrolman thought the falling Braniff International Airways plane was a meteor as it fell.
A man and his wife, who live near where the main body of the wreckage fell, heard debris falling on their roof and the trees in the yard and then the impact and blast of the wreckage hitting the ground.

Typhoid Sweeps Through Japanese Typhoon Area
Newspaper School To Be Held Here
The school is designed as an "exchange of ideas" program.
The toll from typhoon Vera, the worst in Japan's history, stood at 2,964 known dead,1,781 missing and 9,343 injured. A million and a half persons were homeless.
The government, aided by foreign countries including the United States, was rushing aid to the disaster area but flood victims complained that help was slow in coming.
NAGOYA, JAPAN —(UPI)—Typhoid and dysentery swept through the typhoon-raviaged areas of Japan today, bringing new despair to a stricken people unable even to bury their dead.
The "metro plan" for speeding newspaper delivery service will be explained by John Berkebile of the U.S. Post Office.
There will be panel discussions on the newspaper boy and circulation.
Dean Burton W. Marvin of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information will welcome the conference.
The U.S. Navy sent the Aircraft Carrier Kearsarge to give assistance with its planes. American and Japanese helicopters dropped food and supplies and picked up the stranded, but it was not enough.
Morale was at rockbottom and discouraged refugees said they felt even more helpless at the lack of immediate aid and the scenes around them.
