More Casual Footwear
On Unrationed Market
By ANN STEVICK

WASHINGTON Sept. b. - House
slippers will be rationed only If
they contain cattlehide leather, or
have soles containing more than
IS per cent reclaimed rubber. The
War Production Board has just
released quantity of the growing
supply of reclaimed rubber 0 r
house slipper soles. limiting the
allowed percentage to make it go
| further.
The good old insidecut sheep
skin house slippers, important for
fuel-rationed winter, will con-
tinue to be unrationed. They have
been made from scraps, called
shearlings, left owe" from aviator S
jackets. There will probably be
more such slippers this winter be
cause the Army is well stocked and
won't be using SO many skins for
jackets in the future.
Soles of IS per cent reclaimed
rubber also will be allowed on I'M
rationed playshoes. They should
be more durable and satisfactory
than the old ones which could con-
tain no rubber.
The Office of Price Administra-
ton urges that you use your next
shoe stamp now while you have
the time and service to make a
good choice. Fall stocks are in,
and more complete than they vii,
be later. They don't expect such
a stampede as occurred in the
last days of Stamp II, but there
is every advantage in buying now

SOS For Working
Mothers Of Today
BY ADELAIDE KERR

A lot of wives and mothers VINO
work, keep house and mother chill
dren would like to have deductions
made in their income tax to cover
the expense of hiring help at home.
The war work which women are
doing has Intensified problem
that has plagued working mothers
for years. They are all faced with
two alternatives: They must ID
live life resembling three ting
circus, or ca they must pay for
help which takes care of their re-
sponsibilities at home.
Some try the first. They rise at
dawn, race through half days
housekeeping chores before they
go to the job, do a days hard
work in office or factory, rush
home to do the family washing.
ironing and baking and fall into
bed exhausted somewhere n 7
midnight. Besides this they try to
settle the many personal and psy-
Geological problems that ar S e
within a home. Most CT them
break eventually.
The others hire a housekeeper
"a very expensive procedure
these days-and so spend a good
deal of money replacing their own
services on the home front. Thou
sands of these women find that
after all the bills and taxes are
paid, they have very little to show
for a years hard work. Since
many of them work because they
have to, this means real hardship.
One harassed young working
mother said to me the other day
I'm just clearing house for
somebody else's dollars. 1t just
isn't worth what it takes. And yet
I've got to work. Women like me,
who run a job, a house and chill
dren too should be permitted some
deductions in income tax to cover
the expense of help at home, which
we have to have. And the same

Such a tax deduction for work
ing wives and for working moth
ers and fathers who carry home
responsibilities alone, surely woult
be reasonable. Many women d.
first class factory war work-bu
not if they neglect responsibilities
at home and not if the cost of he'll
to replace themselves at home cut
their budgets to ribbons.
What does a tax expert have t
say on the subject?
= PERSONALLY I am in sympath

- partner of J. K. LASER & Co., ia
accountants. But as a tax prac
