NEW YORK, Jan. 22-The d.
rectors of the Motion Picture Pro-
ducers and Distributors of America
will permit use of the words hell"
and damn" in the March of Time"
production I'VE Are the Marines. 4"
This was announced last night
by Charles Francis Coe, vice presi-
dent and general counsel of the
group, who said that other words
under dispute had been ordered
banned. He did not arnplify the
statement.
Mr.. Coe said that although the
directors had voted not to amend
the production code of the movie
industry, concessions had been
made because of the wide appeal of
March Of Time" generally and the
feature I'VE Are the Marines" spe-
cifically.
The group of which Mr.. Coe is
general counsel, administers the
code devised by the Office of Will
Hays, president of Motion Picture
Producers and Distributors OF
America, Inc, and decides disputes
concerning questionable language
and morals on the screen.
Mr.. Coe said it was planned tc
draft general policy soon con-
corning the problem, but until then
individual appeals would be neces-
sary. To date "We Are the Ma
rines" has been shown with al
challenged words deleted.

OPA Gets Out
QUESTIONABLE
In Chinese
BY the Associated Press


NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-The re-
gional ONCE OF Price Admlnistra-
ton, aware of complaints that many
Government forms were Just so
much Chinese, came out with Just
such a form yesterday.
To obtain from retail hand laun-
dries such information as average
weekly business, total wages paid to
employees, total weekly earnings OF
owners and retail prices, the OPA
printed its questions in Chinese be-
meath the English.
Rhapsodized the OPA: The pres
ence of Chinese characters on q
Government form makes a thing OF
beauty of simple QUESTIONABLE
The characters take up much less
space horizontally than does type
written English and it is easy TO
understand why Chinese laundry
men prefer writing customers bills
In the quick brush strokes of Chi
nese as against the more labored

Of Office and Home
Officials Participate
In Opening Ceremony
AT Central Unit

Both homemakers and office work
ers now have special rooms devoted

The room includes books on child
care, household management, nu-
triton and other problems of the
housewife.
Commissioner Mason assured Miss
Clara w. Herbert, librarian, and
other library officials present, that
the Commissioners are much inter-
ested in the library's educational

Spokesmen said the strikers who
returned yesterday did so as "a

they would not drop their demands
for 81 day cost of living bonus
and a 50-cent cut in union dues.
Estimates Of average mine wages
vary from $3.50 to $3.50 a day. The

WILKES BARRE, Pa, Jan, 90
Production of strategic anthracite

than 90 per cent of normal today
with the end of a three-Week wild
cat strike that cost miners an esti-
mated 100000 in wages, withheld
approximately 100000 tons from
the market and won strikers only
the assurance that their wage de-
mands would be considered later.
Only 2,400 of the $4,000 United
Mine Workers members who once
participated still were idle and the
two local unions representing them
announced meetings later today to
take back work votes.
Thousands streamed back to their
jobs yesterday few hours before a

Why butter won't
me|tin Africa

EVERY HOUSEWIFE knows that you
can't keep butter on hot summer
day without some sort of refrigeration.
1t melts j.. and it grows rancid.
But American soldiers, now fighting
in North Africa, carry with them
non-melting butter, especially prepared
for desert warfare. This butter will
not melt, or grow rancid, until the
temperature reaches 12O degrees Fahr-
enheit.
What's the secret of this new desert
type butter? Simply this -. it is forti-
fed with fat which has high melting
point. The butter can be packed in
can, like beans or beef, and will keep
indefinitely.

But giving our boys the things they
need costs lot of money-which is
why the Government asks us to buy
more War Bonds.
And that's not SO much to ask. Many
of US are making more money than we
have made for years. The things we'd
like to buy with that money have
either disappeared or are as "scarce
as hens teeth" So, why not put that
money into War Bonds at good in
terest-$4 for every So when the Bonds
mature? Money to help pay for the
war-keep prices down-provide peace
time jobs and peacetime goods and a
generally decent world for all of us
when the war is won.
Chances are, you're already in the
Payroll Savings Plan-buying War
Bonds-doing your bit. But don't
stop there. Raise your sights! Do
your best
How millions Of Americans have
done their bif-ond how they
CON do better:
Of the 81 million Americans on
plant payrolls, nearly 80 million of
them have joined the Payroll Savings
Plan. Of you aren't in yet-sign up
tomorrowD
Those Americans who have Joined
the Plan are investing, on the average,
1870 of their earnings in War Bonds.
Off you haven't reached 1920 yet
keep tryingD
BUT
Americas income this year will be
the highest in history: about 125
BILLION dollars! In spite of all
taxes and price rises, the average work
erwill have more money than last year
more than eper before!
That is why Uncle Sam has right
to ask US, individually, to invest more
money in War Bonds, through the
Payroll Savings Plan. He asks us to
invest not 1920 or 1870 or 2O@o, but
aNWe can!

Why bother with buffer7

You might think that soldiers en-
gagged in desert warfare could get along
without butter. They could! But why
should they?
Unlike Europeans, most Americans
are used to having something to spread
on their bread. When they can't get
butter, they use jam or marmalade.
But this makes the men thirsty, and
there you have another desert problem.
For in North Africa, water is as scarce
as butter, and often dangerous to drink.
So, thanks to Yankee ingenuity, our
soldiers solve the whole problem by
carrying along butter that will not melt
-. even in African deserts!
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-05-12

THE ABOVE STORY illustrates
something that you already know.
that American soldiers are the best-fed,
the best-cared-for fighting men in the
history of the world. That fact brings
a glow of satisfaction to every Ameri-
can, for we all agree that the very best
of everything is none too good for our
boys!

One can only hope that in having
a great desire to pass on to these
patients a sense of security and
affection and admiration, one does
succeed; and perhaps through their
own imagination, they see the
women they love in any woman
who comes to them with a real in

The organization of all of these
hospitals, the choice of men to head
them up, is a gigantic business ven-
ture. When you think that they
are dotted all over the East coast
and the West coast, over the islands
fthe Pacific and the Caribbean,
you look with pride at the surgeon
general of the navy, and feel
great sense of satisfaction in the
medical profession of the whole
country, which has responded so
magnificently to the call to enter
the armed services, and which has
made this necessary expansion not
only possible but a fact.

Your Dollar
BY Consumers Union
Mems Woven Shorts

Mems shorts cost about 10c a
pair more than they did last year.
On top Of that, Consumers Union
technicians found almst all of them
are skimped in one or more meas
urements. Ten pairs of the 81 GU
tested were so badly skimped
shorts, some of them we'll adver-
tised brands, were sold at prices
as high as 81. Therefore, no mat
ter what price you pay, examine
carefully the shorts you buy.
Best Buys were Leeds (Schulte
Cigar Stores, 35c); Craftsman
q. C. Penney, 39c;) Pilgrim Nobil-
ity (Sears Roebuck, soc plus pos
tage). Other good quality shorts
were BVD and Varsity, both at 81.
Sheets
Many sheets now being sold as
first quality are actually of second
or inferior quality. Twenty five of
the 81 sheets recently tested by Gu
were seconds, although. they were
sold as firsts. This is a violation
of OPA's requirement that seconds
be labeled as such and sold at re-
duced price. In addition, nine of
the sheets did not comply with
OPA's requirements for tensile
strength.
When you buy sheets as firsts,
examine each one carefully. If it
has small imperfections which
make it second, ask for another
sheet or for 1870 discount, as re-
quired by OPA. Oil stains or mend
marks make sheet second, but
do not affect the wear. But missing
threads, or threads not caught in
to the weave, will affect the wear
and should be avoided.
Best Buys OF muslin sheets
tested by Gu were: Sears Guest
Chamber ($1.64 plus postage) /;
and Penney's Pence ($1.69). Other
high quality muslins were Indian
Head, Dwight Anchor, Pequot and
Golden Gate.
Sheets-Labor
The following sheets tested by
Gu are union-made, under con-
tract with the Textile Workers
Union (CIO): Indian Head, Dwight
Anchor, Pequot, Golden Gate,
Utica, Duchess Lady Pepperell,
Wearwell, Princess, Peeress, Indian
Maiden, Duracale, Mohawk. Wam-
sutta's Supercale is also union
made, under contract with the
United Textile Workers (AFL).
Laundry Soap
Although soap is practically a
byproduct of one of the wars most
important industries (glycerine
manufacturer and although soap
supplies are plentiful, most brands
of laundry soap tested by Gu have
gone up in price. Some have gone
up as much as 509s. Some other
brands however have gone down in
price.

Overtime Pay Spurs War
Output. WoIIing Tells Bosses
Does Not Have
Inflationary Effect
BY Federated Pres.

NEW YORK Contrary to below
the belt attacks of anti-labor pro-
pagandists, overtime pay has
spurred war production, Wage
Hour Administrator L. Meltcalfe
Walling told a gathering of en-
ployers at the annual Natl. Retail
Dry Goods Assn. convention Jan.
IL.
The campaign in congress to re-
peal overtime pay "is an effort to
change the whole basis of the wage
structure under the wage stabiliza-
tion act for a very large number
of workers, before the stabilization
program has had even a air chance
to work." Walling said.
"Overtime pay does not limit war
production and the war industries
have almost universally scheduled
shifts of 49 and even up to 60 and
70 hours a week. In view of pres
ent savings in overhead costs, the
payment of the overtime premium
for work beyond 40 hours has not
raised tire unit cost of producing
our tanks, guns and planes to the
taxpayer above levels prevailing
when the establishments worked
only 40 hours.
$50 far as the inflationary effect
goes the overtime premium repre-
sents only about $50 of factory
payrolls and only little over 10
of total consumer income"
Walling reminded his audience
that in Britain workers are still
being paid overtime on their reg
ular peacetime basis, without any
>o;U> effects on production.
JAWAbove ali," he asserted, under
~ looe overtime provisions we are
ALREADY producing four and one
third times the amount of war
materials month that we pro-
duced the month before Pearl
Harbor, an unheard-of expansion.
A
And we are confidently setting out
to double that production in the
next IL months, despite continu-
Gus Improvements that necessitate
changes of design"
