Government Studies
Control Of Wages
In War Industries
Curb Sought on Firms
Willing to Grant Roises
Considered Unwise

The Government is giving further
thought to wage controls in war
industries as part Of the counter
infiationary program.
The War Labor Board already has
stabilizing machinery that operates
when wages are in dispute, and
Chairman William H. Davis told a
press conference yesterday after
noon that consideration is being
given to procedure to deal with those
cases in which management is will
ing voluntarily to grant raises that
the administration would deem
-.nwise.
A committee Of four, including
Mr.. Davis, Secretary of Labor Per-,
kins, Chairman McNutt of the Man
Power Commission and Price Ad-
ministrator Henderson, has the sub
ject under study and will decide If
a further authorization from the
President is necessary. and If so,
what form 1t should take.
Navy Employers Not Baking. .
Mr.. Davis So I'd that for a number.
Of reasons employers in many in
stances were not baking at wage
demands, and under present condi-
tions the board consequently has no
voice in the proceedings.
Citing possible avenues Of control,
Mr.. Davis said that I'VE might say
that we don't want any wage in
creases except to those getting be-
low S25 a week"-the Canadian
standard. He emphasized, however,
that this was simply used as an
illustration, and was not necessarily
a reflection of his own views as to
what the American standard should
be.
Industry wide stabilization agree
ments constitute another possibility.
he said. He cited the pattern of the
recent agreement in the shipbuilding
industry, where the workers ac-
cepted in Government bonds an
average of so per cent less than they
were contractually entitled TO in
cash on a cost-of living basis.
The Labor Board chairman said
that a typical case problem" is the
aircraft industry in Southern Cali
fornia where two companies have
made inquiries indicating they are
willing to raise wages.
Wages Of 205,oo0 Increased.
Secretary Perkins yesterday re-
ported that average hourly earnings
Of employees in durable goods manu-
featuring reached 899 cents in mid
March, an increase of OF per cent in
q month.
She reported three important war
industries were working more than
so hours per week per wage Garner.
These were machine tools, machine
tool accessories and screw-machine
products.
Wage increases from February IS
to March IS averaging 7.9 per cent
were received by approximately 205,-
900 wage earners in 8l4 manufac-
turing establishments reporting in
creases to the Bureau Of Labor
Statistics.
AS result Of gains IN both hourly
earnings and working hours, Secre-
tary Perkins said weekly earnings
rose 239 per cent over March, 194l,
to reach a level of s3615 in March,
l942. In the durable goods indus
tries the earnings rose 26.1 per cent
to a level of s42, while those for the
non n-durable goods increased Ill per
cent to $2772.

the plane and sank it.

out to protect the torpedo boats.

heavy anti-anrcraft fire.
The squadron, nevertheless, sue
ceeded in shooting down another
British plane.
One French plane failed to return
to its base.
