CLEVELAND, June 19.-The scrap
iron and steel trade generally agrees
that latest amendments to the OPA
price schedule offer some improve
ments, but at the same time feel
changes will add to confusion tenn
porarily," Daily Metal Trades says
today.
Additions of several grades to the
established specifications list are
considered Improvements" the trade
publication adds. Premiums on
molybdenum and changes in switch
ing charges, however, are viewed as
hindrances. Substantial savings in
critical alloying materials is ex-
pected to result from mandatory
segregation of alloy scrap"

NEW YORK. June 1s-The Ma

facturers charged last night the
Emergency Price Control Act was
being used to repudiate Government
contracts and appealed to Congress
to remedy this very serious situa-
ton"
Arthur Besse, president of NAWM,
said at press conference a memo
randum had been sent to all men,
bers of both houses of Congress be-
cause that body can amend the
act or force the ONCE of Price Ad-
ministration to honor Government
contracts"
Besse said he did not believe Con-
gress knew it was giving Leon Hen
derson (price administrator power
to override Government contracts
when it passed the price bill"
Signed Prior to Orders.
The contracts in question, the
memorandum said, had been en-
tered into in good faith prior to
the issuance of price regulations re-
lating 10 certain wooden products
for the armed forces.
Not only is such reputation of
existing Government contracts un-
thinkable from the point of view of
public morality" the NAWM said,
but the adoption of such a policy
means that any new undertakings
by the Government are likewise
subject to reputation.
The memorandum criticized par
ticularly price regulation No. 1877,
issued June 8, providing for spe-
cial method of figuring price CELL

HIGHER WAGES FOR
 MEN IN SERVICE
Edward J. Ryan Scores Talb0t's 'Picayune Pro-
 pOsal' of Free Mail

A proposal made yesterday by Jo- seph E. Talbot, Republican candi- date for Congress in the special election January 20, that men and women in the armed services be given free mail privileges was at tackled today by Edward J. Ryan, American Progressive candidate. MT. Ryan declared that the proposal was offered with the idea of getting votes."
 For over three years, MT. Ryan said, T have been using the radio, platforms and newspaper columns to tell our people that our men in the armed forces of our country have been underpaid, and under a section of my plat form calling for aid to the under privileged I have suggested that the men in our armed services should be given an adequate and livable wage. If they received such a wage they would not only afford to pay three cents a day for stamps but they would have enough money to pay their way home on trains or busses and would not be con- pelled to stand on the side of the highway and thumb their way home to see their mothers and fathers.
 During the last three years I have made it plain that I advocated a higher wage for the men who are willing and ready to lay down their lives to protect this country. It is not a passing fancy with me. It is not because I am looking for votes. The mothers and fathers of those men, now in our armed forces, know that when I go to congress one of my first considerations will be the proper welfare of our American boys.
 Ut is my opinion that MT. Tal- bot made his picayune proposal with his tongue ill his cheek and with the idea of getting votes."
