Murray Hits Policies
OF 0PA as WPB Opens
Little Steel Hearing
Says Sl-o-Doy Increase
For Workers Would Only
Correct Past Abuses

BY the Associated Press.
Philip Murray, opening the United
Steel Workers plea for Sl-a-day
wage increase and union security in
little STEEL" told the War Labor
Board today the unions case sis one
of correcting past abuse" and said
inequalities must be wiped out before
Stabilization can be achieved.
Mr.. Murray, president of the USW
and CIO, assailed the wage, ration
ing and price control policies of the
Office of Price Administration.
"If the disparity and inequality
which now prevails for steel workers
is eliminated, wages can thereafter
be stabilized for the steel industry"
said Mr.. Murray. About $4,000
employees of the Bethlehem, Repub-
lie, Inland Steel and Youngstown
Sheet & Tube. companies are
affected.
Pointing out that it has been nine
months since collective bargaining
began in these cases, Mr.. Murray
said, This proceeding presents one
OF the best classic examples of cool
ing Off in operation.
Protests Wage Freezing"
The freezing of the wages of
steel workers." he added, through
the long delay inherent in this pro-
ceeding has resulted in these workers
bearing the full burden of the rise
in cost of living during the past
year"
Mr.. Murray said the board, in
considering the merit of the unions
case, should subject our demands
to this question: Would granting
them aid the war effort or would
their denial retard or endanger the
war effort?"
Fancy and ingenious economic
theories" he added, may satisfy
the armchair experts in Washing
ton-but will they result in deter
mined, healthy steel workers, hell
bent on outproducing the Axis
powers?"
Mr.. Murray, criticizing the OPA.
said that agency initiated a cam
pa1gn to combat any wage increases
Tor the workers of the Nation, re-
gardless of how justified they may
De. This program began about the
time the unions case came before
the panel. Never were we afforded
an opportunity before any public
body to meet the alI-wise econ
omlSts OF that administration. The
crazy-quilt economic theory of the
once OF Price Administration gave
comfort to all enemies of labor.
Burden Increased.
The failure of the OPA
to attend to price control and ra-
tloning until recently simply added
to the unjust burden which the
workers of the Nation are now

President Roosevelt has signed
legislation to prevent repetition Of
an incident which found a United
States custom official on the Alas
kan border demanding that Cana

other equipment before entering
that territory to reinforce its de-
fenses.
Under the new law, free importa-
tion privileges are accorded the
armed forces Of any of the United

ders.
The whole thing began when a
customs official who knew his red

astonished Canadian officer and in

official messaged Washington he
was told the Canadians could be

Wider Rent Control
In Effect, but Fund
Lack May Curb Work
OPA Price Ceilings on
Consumer Services Also
In Operation Today
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
A broadened rent-control pro-
gram and price ceilings for con-
sumer services became effective
today, but the Office of Price
Administration feared the new anti
imitation measures would be crippled
by lack of funds to administer them.
The House yesterday approved
an appropriation of s75,00O,000 for
the OPA, slightly more than one
third of Administrator Leon Hen
derson's original budget request of
$210,oo0,0oO. The appropriation is
now before the Senate.
The new rent-control program
calls for pre-boom rent ceilings in
366 areas in addition to the IS where
rents already are under Federal
control. An OPA spokesman said
there was possibility that Short
age of money for administration
would stop this program in its
tracks, leaving controls effective
only in the original areas.
1t also was predicted that en-
forcement of the retail services
price ceiling would be feeble. The
services order applies to such things
as shoe shining and automobile re-
pair and sets the highest March
price as the ceiling.
The OPA spokesman explained
that the present force of 1900
workers would have to be reduced to
about $500 under the appropria-
ton as passed by the House. Plans
for opening 230 district offices
throughout the country would have
to be Cancelled.
The agency's total payroll in the
last year was $52,9O0,000. Opera
tions have been at rate of slightly
more than s78,0Oo,0O0 annually in
recent weeks.
The price ceiling regulations will
affect 100000 establishments do
ing an annual business of S5,000,-
100000 throughout the country.
Exempted from the regulations
are professional services, such as
those performed by physicians,
dentists, lawyers and BARRIERS.
Retail services covered by the
ceilings include services rendered in
connection with a commodity for
the ultimate consumer such as the
housewife, the motorist or the farm
er. Examples are laundry, dry
cleaning and shoe repairs. Others
are the fabrication or repair of a
private passenger car, the develop
ing and printing of amateur films
the repair and servicing of home
radio sets and electrical appliances
and the sharpening of household
knives and scissors.
The charges made by a parking
lot also are covered by the regula-
| ton.

ize prices for consumer services, but

In cases where fiat price for con-
sumer services was not charged in

larly quoted that month. This re-
port also must show any pricing

Automatically Licensed.
Every person selling consumer
service is automatically licensed
under the regulation and every new
seller automatically is licensed
though there Is no certificate or
actual license
If seller, after warning from the
OPA, violates the regulation, the
court of proper jurisdiction may sus-
pend the license for as long as IL

a service rendered in connection
with a commodity and does not
cover personal services, such as hair

storage, for instance, is one of the
services covered by the regulation,
however, since an automobile is a
commodity and the service is the

Brazilian Ship Beats Off
Attacks by Nazi Subs
D, the Associated Press.

0S LnS ASroCIdCco IieSss
RIO DE JANEIRO, July 1.-The
newspaper O Globo said yesterday
that ship of the Lloyd Brasileiro
Line which arrived from New York
yesterday morning was attacked
several times en- route by German
submarines, but escaped through
measures taken on board and thanks
to the neroism of the crew.
This was interpreted as meaning
the vessel had fired at the subma-
rines, but a company spokesman
declined to corroborate the story.
All Brazilian ships on the United
States run are armed and authorized
to shoot if attacked, but there had
been no previous indication that
any of them had done so. Brazilian
air force planes bombed Axis sub
marines off the north coast late in
May.

LET CHEESE SOLVE YOUR

 War Marriage Is a Fine Idea
By RUTH MILLETT

It's a mistake for parents to aS- sume that all war marriages are foolish. Just because a young man has some fighting to do before he can settle down to normal married life is not sufficient reason TOT daughter not to marry him.
 Before parents try to discour- age a daughters marrying they ought to consider these points. ..
 Has the couple known each other long enough to be sure that the love is the real thing2
 Does the young man seem to be dependable, the kind who will take his marriage responsibili- ties as seriously in war as m
 IS the girl emotionally mature enough to be willing to settle down and wait for her husband $ return? Or does she think that just because she is young, TO- nance and excitement are hei rights? ,
 Has the girl enough initiative and self-reliance to be able tc earn living and take care oi herself?
 LET THEM MARRY
 m ANSWER IS "YES"
 If the answers to those ques- tions are "YeS," there Is no req soh why parents should urge her not to marry in war time.
 It is true, of course. that het husband may come back from the war injured - or that he might not come back at all. But life a, best is a risky business. No glrI is ever sure when she marie that her husband will continue to be in good health and able tc support her. Nor is she sure botf will live to celebrate go.der wedding anniversary.

A . M

woman who wants to- quicken the transition to pure white hair can do so with the aid of scalp lo- ton made for that purpose.
 For sharnpooing white hair: pure, mild castle shampoo; and afterward, perhaps, a rinse with bluing. Women with natural pink-white or gray-white skins will find the blue-blue rinSes most becoming.
 Hair which grows frizzy or coarse should get hot oil treat ments. The hair which is too soft to handle easily needs a per- manent wave, especially gray or white hair. Be sure to go to Q good, reliable shop for the wave, and if your hair is out of cor1di- ton, postpone the permanent for a week or two in order to recon" dition your tresses first, either in a good salon or at home.
 CLEANsINGS HELP KEEP
 THAT "SPRINGY" LOOK
 Between shampoo cleansings are doubly important for the woman with white hair. There is an amber liquid of mildly stim- ulating character that suits this need; it helps to keep the "springy" look which is the key to aliveness of the dresses.
 For sheen and gloss and dis couragement to yellowing of gray and white hair: don't shampoo with water that's too hot; donr expose your hair to too much arlc too hot sunshine; and, especially don't stand too near hot stove very long without covering youl hair.
