In a statement made at the time

WASHINGTON, JUL (UP) -
The United Steel Workers Union
(CIO) told the war labor board to-
day that unless its demands for a
81 a day wage increase and union
security in little steel" are met
steel workers may seek jobs in
other war industries.
Harold Ruttenberg, CIO econom-
ist, told board hearing on union
demands for $4,000 employees of
Bethlehem Steel, Republic Steel,
Inland Steel and Youngstown Sheet
and Tube that many workers al
ready have migrated to other in
dustries because of delay in OBJ
tanning their demands.

Lee Pressman, CIO general coun-
sci, reaffirmed the unions original
demand for a union ship-.n which
all employees would be required to
Join the union-and rejected a fact
finding panel report suggestion for
union maintenance of membership.
In its report" iressman said,
"the panel stated that it refused
to weigh the unions demand. for a

tirely upon a statement made by
President Philip Murray of the
union when he expressed willing
ness to negotiate some form of

the union shop demand of the un-
ion. This is a thoroughly unfair
conclusion for the panel to reach.
President Murray did not in any
Way intend to yie.G the demand OF
the union for a union shop. To the
contrary. the union shop is the
only form OF such union security
that would meet the needs OF the
steel industry"
Murray told the board that the
wage increase demanded by the
union was necessary to correct the
injustices created during the past
year
Any decision in the little steel
dispute, both industry and labor
leaders agreed, would almost cer-
tainly be applied to the remaining

The short sleeved, mid thigh
length wrap, rayon too, would not
only go with Madame's black din
ner dress, or with her white shirts
and black or other solid color skirts

casual beach costume: in it, the

The demand for flexibility brings
to the beach some surprising and

WAAC's Clothes Cost More
Than Army Officer Outfit

WASHINGTON, July |. UP)-
For what 1t costs to clothe one
member of the women's Army Auxil-
iary Corps, Uncle Sam could uni
form brand new army officer and
have almost enough left over to
garb a sailor.
He also could finance the tailor
ing of naval reserve officer and
buy fifth of Scotch before exceed
ing one WAAC's clothing bill.
A bit of research at the war de-
partment disclosed that the cost to
the government of clothing one
WAAC - "private" or officer - is
$255.68 for initial outfit and a years
maintenance.
Not even army nurses, albeit of
the same sex, cost that much to
clothe. The government spends only
$l22.2l to equip nurse for field
service.
Imperial Valley press., 1942-07-01

A WAAC's clothing-from panties
to tunic will be government issue
Army and Navy officers, on the
other hand, receive allowances when
they enter the service and have
their own uniforms tailored. In
either case, it is Uncle Sam who
pays.
Here arc some comparative fig
ures based on direct cost to the
government OF various outfits:
WAAC-$255 SO; Navy reserve Of
ficer- $3.50; Army officer-$150; en-
listed soldier-$l539l; Army nurse
-$l22.21; enlisted sailor $11895.
Thus far the Navy has gotten off
lighter than the Army in the mat
ter of women's clothing bills. Navy
nurses do not wear uniforms and
the Navy has no women's auxiliary.
Bills pending III congress, however,
may change all that. One would
give Navy nurses relative officers
rank and another would create a
Women's naval reserve corps.
