my attention to a situation which
has disturbed her and which may
disturb others. She feels that it
would be desirable to give as much
publicity as possible to the situa-
ton so that others might not be
disturbed in the same way.
She tells me tat she has sue
cessfully worn a bone conduction
hearing aid which gives her hear
ing so nearly normal that she is
able to hold a position and to do
feature writing without ever hav-
ing had TO reveal the fact that she
wears such an instrument
In shopping for a new instru-
ment lately, she was told by sew
eral people that in wearing a bone
conduction instrument she was not
using the hearing that she had left
in the exact words of some of
these people. she was letting her
hearing die" They told her that
only by putting an ear piece in
side the ear would the hearing be
exercised"
| have inquired of a number OF
ear specialists and have been told
that this idea is entirely without
foundation. The patients who
have deafness which is overcome
by a bone conduction apparatus
probably have, in most cases, a
hardening of the small bones of
the middle ear and the air con-
duction apparatus does not often
loosen these up so that good hear
ing is possible.
Not Scientifically True
To say that the bone conduction
aid "lets the hearing die" makes
no scientific sense, because the
hearing lies in the auditory nerve
and the apparatus of hearing
which is in the temporal bone OF
the skull, Is stimulated just as
we'll by a bone conduction appara-
tus as by an air conduction appa-
ratus and in any event does not
die" no matter what the patient
does.
The proper method Of fitting q
patient with a hearing aid is to
test out both bone conduction and
air conduction with an audiometer
and find out which form of appara-
tus gives the greatest amount of
aid and comfort. In most instances
the bone conduction apparatus
will do this and it would be very
silly for anyone to use an air con-
duction aid il the bone conduction
aid gave better hearing range.
Ny correspondent says that
most OF the statesmen who tried to
persuade her TO use an air conduc-
ton apparatus in preference to
the bone condaction aid did not
give her any test whatever to see
whether she had good bone con-
duction or not. This in itself indi.
Gates that their advice is unre.
liable, and anyone who is in the
market for an instrument should
be suspicious of advice which is
not preceded by careful test OF
both air and bone conduction.

WPB, Labor, Industry
Confer Today on Plan
To Boost Arms OUTPUT
Roosevelt Reported Ready
To Drop His Opposition
To Incentive Wages
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Amid strong indications that
President Roosevelt has dropped
his opposition to incentive" pay,
the War Production Board is
scheduled to confer with labor
and industry today in an effort
to work out some such scheme
for boosting munitions output.
A subcommittee of WPB's new
Management-Labor Council ar
ranged to meet with Charles E. Will
son, WPB executive vice chairman,
to start work on details of an in
centive plan for the aircraft in
dustry.
Among the members of the sub
committee are Richard Franken-
steen, aircraft director of the United
Automobile Workers Union, rep
resenting the CIO, and Otto Sey-
ferth, representing the United States
Chamber of Commerce. Others in
clude representatives of the AFL
and the National Association of
Manufacturers.
Even as they met, it became in
creasingly apparent that Mr.. Roose-
velt had withdrawn his objections to
incentive or bonus" payments to
Evening star., 1943-04-08

labor. which he voiced fatty one
year ago.
In direct conflict with WPB
Chairman Donald M. Nelson, Mr..
Roosevelt said last April he was
utterly opposed to such a plan be-
cause men in a time of national
emergency should produce all they
could. Mr.. Nelson previously had
indorsed the idea for certain war
industries.
Mr.. Wilson, now the sparkplug be-
hind WPB's incentive pay proposal,
went to the White House recently.
That he got at least tentative 60
ahead was indicated by the fact that
he Immediately thereafter set about
getting clearance from the two
agencies which might have opposed
him on anti-inflationary grounds
the War Labor Board and the Office
of Economic Stabilization.
Those agencies also were under
stood to have acquiesced. Mr.. Wilson
holds the plan to be def1ationary.
rather than the reverse, since it
would result in greater output a
dollar of wages paid and lower unit
cost of production.
WPB officials are confident, more
over, that it would step up produc-
tion by at least 10 per cent, without
a corresponding drain on manpower.
Some feel the increase could be as
much as 30 per cent.
Talk in WPB has revolved about a
plan whereby every employe in a
plant would get pay bonus scaled
to the percentage of increased pro-
duction.
Mr.. Wilson proposes to give the
plan trial in a few problem
plants" of the aircraft industry at
first. If successful it will be ex-
tended to other aircraft plants,
then to war industry generally.

More Words Reported Used
Than for 8 War Heroes

BY the Associated Press.
Representative Thomas, Republi-

yesterday President Roosevelt used
400 words in commencing the serv-
ices of David Ginsburg, former OPA

mendations of eight war heroes.
Offering the figures as typical"

ing Gen. Doolittle and 1O9 in prais-
ing Capt. Colin Kelly, pilot who was
killed following an attack on Jap
anese battleship.
Mr.. Ginsburg recently was criti-
cized on the House floor after he
was reported by Representative
Flanagan, Democrat, of Virginia to
be in line for a commission as an
Army colonel and an assignment in
London. Mr.. Ginsburg subsequently
applied to his local draft board for
immediate induction. Still later
Mr.. Roosevelt wrote OPA Admin
istrator Brown, lauding Mr.. Gins
