Higher Prices
For Metals

Boston, Nov. 1-CUP) - Higher
prices for cooper, lead and zinc were
predicted for the postwar era today
by the United Business Service.
The publication pointed to the
fact that in sharp contrast tc
World War I when prices of metals
rose alarmingly, metal prices during
World War II have risen only mod
erately.
Immediate postwar supplies will
be ample, the service continued, but
with the removal of price ceilings
and a stronger metal situation az
the subsequent business boom de-
velops, higher metal prices are
likely. Spiraling metal prices have
been checked by governmnt regula-
tons from the beginning Of the war.
Despite the use Of aluminium and
magnesium, non-ferrous metal pro-
duction will hold a high level
through the war even though re-
quirements may decline, the service
said. Furthermore, natural time
lag between mine output and CON-
pleted fabrications also will help to
increase reserves during the transi-
ton period, according to the report.
In addition, output Of premium
price metal Is likely tc be continued
after the war to build up govern
ment stockpiles for military reasons,
the service said.

AirpIont Help
Go On Strike

Lansing, Mich, Nov. - (U.P.)-
A strike of nearly 5000 workers to-
day halted the production of air.
craft propellors at the h-Kelvin-
ator plants for the second time in
week.
John Haruska, president Of Nash
Local 10, United Automobile Work
ers (CIO) blamed their walkout on
"firings, lay-offs and total disre-
gard for existing working agree
ments." He said no strike vote had
been taken.
Production at the plant was halt
ed for three hours last week when
about 1900 workers in one division
walked out. A demand that the gov
eminent take over the plant was
forwarded to the unions interna-
tional executive board.
Management has proved to the
workers in these plants that they
would rather fight the unions than
the Axis" Haruska said.
