Sterilization
OF Wages

Chairman Davis Of the War La
Dor Board said the WLB in stab
ilizing incomes less than $4,000,
will act on the presumption that
wage rates prevailing on Septem-
Der Is, 1912, are proper. The Board
said If a group of employees has
received increases amounting to Is
percent in their average straight
time rates over the level prevail
ing on January l, 1941, the Board
will not grant further increases as
a correction for EMBELLISHMENTS
The wage rate inequalities and
the gross inequities which may
require adjustments under the sta
bilization program are those which
represent manifest injustices that
arise from unusual and unreason-
able differences in wage rates.
