Randolph Bill 10 Ask
Permit Plan for
Women's Overtime
Boord Would Decide
On Need for Hours in
Excess Of 48 Weekly
Star Staff Photos.

Chairman Randolph of the House
District Committee Is prepared to
introduce tomorrow a bill amending
the eight-hour work law for women,
as a substitute for one previously
INTRODUCED which would permit
women to work overtime at railway
and bus. terminals. The new bill
proposes to permit the Minimum
Wage and Industrial Safety Board
to issue temporary permits to en-
ployers for the duration of the war,
and six months thereafter. to en-
ploy women for longer hours than
the limitation in the present law,
which is eight hours a day, six days
a week, or a 48-hour week.
The employer seeking such a per-
nit would be required to satisfy the
board that there is a real need for
relaxation of the law, and that the
application is necessitated by a
shortage of workers, due to the war
conditions.
Corporation Counsel Keech ex-
planned today that the law applies
to all woman workers in manufac-
turing, mercantile and mechanical
establishments, laundries, hotels,
restaurants, telephone and telegraph
services, express and Transportation
companies, but not clerical and office
workers.

Postmaster General Walker an

ONCE Department had a deficit of

June 30. the smallest since 1924,
but added that the deficit for the

Preliminary figures on the 1912
fiscal year showed revenues total
ing $3.50, ,691 ,029 against expenditures
of $873, ,62l, Mr.. Walker said.
This was an increase over the previ-
Gus year of 5.64 per cent in revenues
and 4.22 per cent in expenditures.
For the first time in postal his

I'VE find that, not withstanding a
very considerable increase in the
workload, revenues are now declin-
ing. There is every indication
that, despite an increased work.

cline further. -
The postal establishment is now

Groner Tells Hearinq
OF Faster Procedure
In District Court
Testifies for Bill to
Permit Interchange
Of Circuit Judges

The time lag in disposition OF
cases in District Court here has
been cut down from IA to months
and there is hope of further re-
ducing it to between 4 and months,
Chief Justice D. Lawrence Groner
of the District Court of Appeals
told a Senate Judiciary Subcom-
mittee today.
He explained the improvement
was made possible by taking ad-
vantage of the law authorizing
temporary transfer of District Judges
from other parts of the country
coupled with the work performed
by the local judges themselves. s
Justice Groner was testifying in
support of a bill to broaden the
law to permit transfer also of cir
cut judges from one circuit to
another to relieve congested dockets.
Associate Justice Fred M. Vinson
of the District Court of Appeals
also testified in support of the bill.
Letters were filed noting the ap-
proval of Chief Justice Stone and
the senior judges of the several
circuits.
Senator Danaher, Republican of
Connecticut. presiding, congratu
lated the District judges for the
progress made in reducing the time
lag due to congested dockets.

What Can ! Do?'

The urgent need for Red Gross
nurses aides stretches beyond the
doors of hospitals and into every
street in Washington where bomb
might fall. That's why the call for
500 women to volunteer for training
must be answered now.
With each team that leaves a hos
pital to 60 to the scene of disaster
travels Red Cross nurses aide
That is the ideal but many of the
hospitals have no nurses aides to
send.
DR.. John A. Reed, chief of the
Emergency Medical Service. today
called the nurses aides "indispen-
sable to the task of bringing medi-
cal aid to the victims of air attack
240 Needed for Units.
For the mobile units, which oper-
ate out of the hospitals, DR.. Reed
said 240 nurses aides are needed.
This is in addition to the nurses
aides on duty in the hospitals. to
which the most serious cases will
come.
Here's the role the nurses aide
plays in an air raid.
If she is a member of one of the
mobile units the sounding of the
alarm or call from her team
captain sends her to the hospital.

Parran Asks Housewives
To Save Fats, Greases

Surg. Gen. Thomas Parran of the
United States Public Health Service
today urged housewives to save
cooking fats and greases as means
OF avoiding "a serious health haz-'
ard" BY failing to save fats, he
said, shortage might be created
which would be reflected in diets"
Fats and oils are of vital inn
portance to the war effort" he said.
They are important foods, too.
With overseas sources of supply re-
duced by enemy action, domestic
supplies must be increased, con-
sumption reduced and waste cur
tailed.
"Drippings. residue, all forms Of
grease, should be placed in clean
container with lid and kept in a
cool place if possible. When a
pound or more has been accumu-
lated it can be turned in for salvage.
There will be no health hazard, even
If it gets stale.
TT would be serious health haz-
ard if through our own carelessness
we were obliged to reduce sharply
the amount needed by each person
for a normal diet"

| Mrs. Roosevelt
Wants Ceilings
On Wages, Goods

The amount of many mans
purchase of War Savings Bonds de-
pends on what his wife does in the
kitchen, Mrs. Roosevelt said at her
press conference today Now that
every American is being asked to
pledge 10 per cent of his income to
War Bonds, Mrs. Roosevelt is
afraid that many of them can't
meet the demand unless housekeep-
ing costs are kept little lower.
Turning to another aspect of the
war situation, Mrs Roosevelt de-
clared her conviction that matters
would be made much easier for the
housewife if there were a universal
ceiling on all commodities rather
than what she termed little scraps
of price restrictions.
The universal price ceiling would
not work, however, she emphasized,
unless universal wage ceiling were
put on too.
Tomorrow Mrs. Roosevelt said she
will observe prayer day for the
women of Poland who she holds have
suffered more than any one else
through the war. 1t will be Polish
women day throughout the country.
