Hire More Workers

Manufacturers are being asked
whether they can hire more work
ers, expand their plants, put on
three shifts of workers instead oil
two. or farm out part OF their
work on a subcontracting basis to
smaller manufacturers.
In some cases, the OPM leg
men" are finding that a manufac-
turer could put on three shifts,
except that he is already produc-
ing as much as the manufacturers
whom he supplies can take:
The problem, in such a case, Of
ficials point out. is TO find out
where the bottleneck is, and by
removing ii to open up a greater
flow of production all along the

Ways to Plan
Pretty Frocks
Cotton Tops For
New Spring Clothes

Little girls are no respecters Of
seasons. when IL comes 10 clothes
They seem 10 shoot UP faster than
Jack ever climbed the beanstaik.
And with the number OF changes
they need. the wardrobe problem
might be a very serious one for
the average mother-on-a-budget.
But IL ever cloud had a silver
lining. the spring fashion outlook
for children's clothes should be one
to make any mother take a deep
breath Of relief.
First Of all. cotton IL tops.
Sand boxes and dancing school,
alike. will see smart youngsters
in frocks Of crisp. fresh washable
cottons. There are innumerab bic
enchanting fabrics that cost so
little you could make six-year-old
Sally a complete spring wardrobe
for under five dollars.
Princess Frocks
Particularly smart for the
youngs;er who is just over the doll
like proportions of the average
two-to-four age, is the classic
princess frock. II is becoming 10
almost every childish figure and
grown-up enough in appearance
to appeal to budding femininity.
For playtime. it is smart in check
ed seersucker. or sturdy denim.
while percale and Bingham are
favorites for school. When party
time indicates something more
formal dotted swiss or novelty
organdy adds a festive note.
Princess frocks are easy to
launder. too, because of the alb
sence Of pleats and gathers-and
to take care of those ever-grow-
ing legs. you can always allow an
extra two inches in the hem with
out spelling the line of the dress.
Be sure you use boilfast thread.
SO that when you change the hem,
the line OF former sewing won't
show.
Like Pinafores
The pinafore frock is another
universal style favorite. It's a
mix-or-match fashion that allows
for extra blouses or a change of
apron-skirt, at will You can
make all of the blouses on the
same pattern and vary the skirts,
through difference in fabric and
finish. Sew ric-rsc braid on
the skirt OF one. for peasant eff
feet. and stitch big patch pocket
on another, to hold her jacks, or
hankie.
There are all sorts of easy-to-do
trimmings for frocks this year,
too. A braid-trimmed sailor collar
will give the accepted nautical
note, and so will little star shaped
buttons, or amusing anchors. For
dress, a dainty collar Of hand
crocheted lace, or a narrow ruffle
OF pleated organdy is a smart
neck finish.
There isn't mother in the
world who doesn't want her
daughter to look as well, if not
better, than her little playmates.
II is a natural feeling. of course,
and a heart-rending one when the
family budget seems to make ex-
penditures for clothes out of the
question. So ii is particularly
gratifying to be able to purchase
inexpensive dress fabrics from
your favorite shop.

Ford Wins Right
To Tell Opinions
|0f Labor Unions

WASHINGTON, March 4. CUP)--
Henry Ford appeared today to have
established by court action the right
of all employers to disseminate their
opinions of labor organizations
among their workers.
That right was upheld by the
Sixth circuit court of appeals In a
National Labor Relations Board case
against the Ford Motor company.
The government. it was learned. has
decided, subject to reconsidera-
tion," not to appeal the ruling to
the supreme court.
Ford, during the violent labor
troubles of 1897, distributed PAM
phlets to his workers at his River
Rouge and Highland Park, Mich,
plants criticizing unions. The labor
board held that it was an unfair
labor practice, particularly the meth
cd by which the circulars were
distributed.
The circuit court held that Ford
was exercising rights of free speech
and press guaranteed him by the
Constitution and that the labor
board finding was invalid.
