Wagner to Meet Striking Printers
NEW YORK — (UPI) — Mayor Robert F. Wagner, again mediating the city's 74-day-old newspaper shutdown, meets today with leaders of the striking printers union and other labor chiefs.
Among the unionists scheduled to see Wagner were Ertraum Powers, president of the striking Local 6 of the International Typographical Union (ITU); Harry Van Arsdale, chief of the city's Central Labor Council, and Michael Mann, regional director of the AFL-CIO.
The mayor met for three hours yesterday with representatives of the New York Publishers Association (NYPA).
WAGNER, WHO presided over 17 days of unsuccessful city hall negotiations ending last Monday, reentered the dispute amid signs that no early settlement was in sight.
Walter Thayer, president of the New York Herald Tribune, said the negotiations needed someone who could be "more of a catalyst." Asked
J-School Tells Honor Students
Six seniors and four juniors were listed on the William Allen White School of Journalism honor roll for the fall semester today by Dean Burton W. Marvin. They comprise 10 per cent of the student body of the school and all made grade point averages of 2.28 or higher.
Seniors listed are James E. Alsbrook, Kansas City; Martin S. Dick, Brooklyn, New York; Dennis D Farney, Wilson; Alvie B. Harrison, Wichita; Carol Ann Phillippi, Salina, and Gerald W. Smith, Omaha, Neb.
The juniors are Robert A. Brooks, Lawrence; Joanne M. Prim, Overbrook; Alice M. Rueschhoff, Hutchinson, and Joanne D. Zabornik Kansas City.
if this might mean the aid of Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, he replied, "I don't feel that any more state, federal or city intervention would be helpful.
"If Mr. Powers were to search his soul," Thayer declared, "he could answer the question in just one word — money. It's been the issue for 73 days and is the issue today. It's simply a question of hours and wages."
POWERS PREVIOUSLY had outlined seven issues needing resolution: "automation, hours, sick leave, night pay, wages, expiration of date of contract and bogus."
Wagner refused to be pessimistic. "We will continue to have meetings," he said, "until we find a settlement, which we should have to do in the interest of the people of the city."
The dispute has idled eight papers and caused a ninth to cut off its New York City circulation. About 17,000 workers have been idled, and costs to the city have been estimated at $4 million per day.
AN ORGANIZATION called the Citizens' Newsaper Committee sponsored a demonstration by about 200 persons yesterday near city hall.
The group insisted that if mediation could not bring settlement of the dispute, Rockefeller should prod the legislature to enact legislation mandating an agreement.
India Club Elects Officers
Following executive members of the India Club have been elected for the spring semester: Zafar H. Israeli, Mordabad, India, graduate, president; Bhogilal M. Modi, North Gujarat, India, graduate, vice president; Vinay Kothari, Bombay, India, senior, secretary, and Suresh R. Mehta, Ahmedabad India, graduate, treasurer.

THE WANT ADS
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The Federal Communications Commission came under a hail of Senatorial criticism yesterday for recent rate increase decisions affecting news services and "short-haul" telephone calls.
Sen. A. S. Mike Monroney, D-Okla., said the FCC plan to hike rates $4,012,000 for private or leased teleprinter circuits would be a "body blow to many small newspapers."
SEN. RALPH Yarborough, D-Tex. questioned the FCC proposal to raise rates an estimated $25 million a year by hiking the cost by 5 to 10 cents of person-to-person phone calls under distances of 800 miles.

"There is no other utility that I know of that charges 24 hours," Monronney said. "A newspaper that uses power to run the presses pays only for the electricity used, not on a 24-hour basis."
Hyde said the plan, due to go into effect May 1, has been delayed for "further consideration." He said there was "no intent to drive out papers," that "some relief" may yet be worked out for publications.
the time it uses a leased wire, Monroney said the FCC plan would force the paper to pay for a full 24 hours of a private line, whether it used it round-the-clock or not.
YARBOROUGH centered his attack on the plan to boost person-to-person rates. He questioned an FCC press release of Jan. 29 describing it as "small increases" in calls up to 800 miles.
Yarborough said a 10-cent increase on a 50-person-to-person call from Washington to Baltimore amounted to a 20 per cent increase — "and I don't call that a small increase."
