Verity cites small gains from steel import restraints
William Verity of Armco testifies before the House committee that voluntary import restraints have slowed total steel imports but failed to stop disruption in specialty steel markets. He notes a shift to higher value products and rising imports from nonparticipating nations, urging stronger actions against unfair trade and imports from outside the agreement. Princess Margaret Rose wed Anthony Armstrong-Jones at Westminster Abbey on May 6, 1969.

Rhodes seeks third term with filing of petitions
Former Gov. James Rhodes refiled petitions with Secretary of State Ted Brown seeking a third term. The Ohio Supreme Court had ruled the prohibition on three consecutive terms, opening the door to another campaign. Rhodes, a former Columbus mayor and state auditor, seeks the GOP nomination for governor next May. He filed 2,948 signatures from 72 counties, with 1,000 needed and a cap of 3,000. He praised Brown while criticizing Democratic persecution over a real estate license issue. Brown predicted the filing may deter rivals and stop speculation about a Senate bid.
