Foreign Courts For G.I.s Face Bow Resolution
The House Foreign Affairs Committee approved a stern Bow resolution demanding revisions to status of forces agreements and opposing foreign trials for U S servicemen. It backed the measure despite Eisenhower administration support and amid debate over the Girard case in Japan where a Japanese court seeks to try Army Specialist William S Girard for a fatal shoooling. The panel considered testimony from Defense Department witnesses but ultimately set the measure for Senate and president approval before becoming law.

Lawmaker’s inquiry into communism cited in Miller case
The contempt action against Miller stemmed from a House Un American Activities subcommittee investigation a year earlier. Miller refused to name Communist writers he claimed he met with in New York in 1947. Judge McLaughlin ruled the committee was not required to state how the questioned item was pertinent to the inquiry and faulted the procedure on the other count for not explaining this link per Natkins.

Steel price hike signals varied auto and consumer costs
The Anderson Herald notes steel price increases will vary by product. Factors shaping consumer costs include other raw materials, wages, new methods, and retail competition. Auto prices won’t rise immediately due to competition before 1958 model launches. 1957 models rose $10 to $300 over 1956. In 1956 steel rose $4.50 per ton. In San Diego, someone left a flyer offering pilot training for Will Willis, the mayor’s assistant with 3,000 naval flight hours, who considered it amusing.
