Six-Doy Week Costs
Ry The Associated Press.

Py The Associated Press.
The Office of Price Admins
tration today was reported con-
sidering quick action to permit
increases of 20 to Is cents a ton
in bituminouS coal prices.
Informed sources said the pro-
posal probably would allow an g.
cent increase generally in the Appa-
lachian fields, both north and south,
to cover increased material costs.
and that an additional sum. equal
to 9 per cent of labor costs, would
be allowed to districts which operate
on a. six-day week.
The increased labor costs are due
to the payment of time and a half
rates for the sixth day of work.
and the proposed price increase, it
was said. will average about Is
cents. 1t will vary among the pro-
ducing districts and among the
different kinds of coal.
The districts where the proposed
higher price for increased labor
costs as we'll as the 8 cents, would
be allowed Immediately are No. 2,

Chairman Maloney of the Sem

urged wider use throughout the

been invoked in some New Eng

plies and giving some one in the
community authority to see that
oil is delivered to homes that

Robert L. Minckler Of Petroleum
Administration for War told the
committee that within the last few
DAYS arrangements have been made
whereby local representatives of Oil
companies have authority to recog-
nize alloca tions of oil. He explained
after the hearing this is done only
in cities where the inventory of
oil on hand shows a critical situa-
ton has developed.

other agencies to check on calls.
He said they expected 10000 calls

said they found 400 of those needed

Under voluntary rationing," in
effect for several months, consumers
have not been asked to limit their
consumption OF variety meats
which include liver, kidney, heart,
tripe, brains and sweetbread.
1t was made clear today, however,
that these would be rationed.
Meats like canned and frozen
fruits and vegetables. will be ra-
toned under g point system, with
the purchaser required to surrender
varying points. depending upon
the type OF meat purchased.
There was no official indication
today as to possible values of vari-
Gus meats, but 1t was regarded as
probable that variety meats, now
generally much more plentiful than
carcass cuts, would have a lower
point value than red meats" such
as steak and rossts.

in the stoppsge which the union said
had affected 10000 workers. Those
assured of the increase had been

More than $4,000 employees quit

Union officials said the average
weekly earnings of employees was
about S32 in a seasonal trade year
of about seven months. The en-
ployers contention was that price
ceilings were so low. wages could
not be increased without cutting
into capital
Employers said the union had re-
fused to cooperate in trying to get
price ceilings raised.
Mr.. HoChman said the manufac-
turerSa signing pay-raiSe agreements
were pledged to deposit the IS per

Double Time Pay
Denied for Work
II Days in Row

BY the Associated Press
In revised Interpretation Of the
Presidents order on double time,
the Secretary of Labor has ruled
that payment of double time rates
is not required on a seventh con-
secutive day of work if the employe
gets day off in each work week.
An employe, as an extreme ex-
ample, could work as many as II
consecutive DAYS without getting
double time. Under such a schedule
he would be idle the first day of the
work week. work the remaining six
days of that week, then work the
first six days Of the succeeding
week and take the seventh day of.
Under such schedule the en-
ployer need not pay double time
because the employe gets one day
off in each work week. A work week
consists of seven days, starting with
the same calendar day each week.
Under the old Interpretation,
double time pay was required for
any seventh consecutive day unless
| some other schedule mutually sat-
isfactory to employer and employe
was worked out.
