War Contracts 10 Continue
In Labor Shortage Areas
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The recent designa ton of Sc
areas as having labor shortages
does not mean that those areas will
cease receiving war contracts, the
War Production Board explained
today.
The areas were named in recent
report of the War Manpower CON-
mission, following a directive issued
by WPB Chairman Donald M. Mel
son ordering Government purchas-
ing agencies to avoid letting con-
tracts for war material In areas OF
acute manpower shortage, If pos
sible.
Houlder Hudgins, director of WPB
procurement policy, said the desig-
nation of shortage areas did mean
that war contracts will not be
placed in these labor shortage areas
if the same items can be produced
on time and with a minimum re-
quirement Of new machinery and
equipment In areas where the labor
supply is ample and if the labor
is convertible from one industry to
another
For example, If airplanes and
furniture are now being manufac-
tured for the Government in the
same labor shortage area. from now
on no additional furniture con-
tracts will be awarded to that To-
cality. so that the manpower there
may be available for the airplane
plant" Mr.. Hudgins explained.
There are other places in the
country where labor shortages do
not exist where furniture can be
manufactured for the armed serv-
ices"

An increase of cents in the

increase had come from the Inter-
state Commerce Commission and
that 1t had not been necessary to
obtain permission from either the
District Public Utilities Commission
or the Maryland Public Utilities
Commission. He pointed out that
the fare increase was made neces-
sary by increased operating costs.
The 2-cent transfer charge was
dropped yesterday after the District

Regulation Of Milk Sale
To Army Will Be Tested
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Supreme Court agreed today
to review a decision holding consti-
tutional an attempt by Pennsylvania
to regulate the price OF milk sold
by dairy to an Army camp. The
tribunal already had agreed to re-
view q case involving similar legis-
lation passed by California.
Virginia has q statute similar to
Pennsylvania's the Justice Depart
ment said.
Appealing from an adverse ruling
by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court,
the Justice Department asserted
that such an Interpretation of the
State milk control law constitutes
direct interference with the SOW
ereign right of the United States
to contract for the purchase Of sup
plies for the Army upon such terms
as it sees fit."
The litigation arose from q con-
tract awarded Penn Diaries, Inc
of Lancaster. Pa, for supplying
milk to military camp at In
diantown Gap at q price lower than
the minimum fixed by the State
Milk Control Commission.
Similar statutes were said by the
Justice Department to be in effect
also in California, Massachusetts,,
New Jersey, Alabama, Connecticut,
Florida, Georgia, Maine, Montana,
New Hampshire, Oregon, Rhode
