~ the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 29-British wom-
ems auxiliary services are nearly
up to full strength and no further
age groups will be conscripted under
the National Service Acts, Labor
Minister Ernest Bevin told Com
mons today.
All women in groups now subject
to CONSUMPTION will be asked to enter
aircraft factories and the govern
rnent will extend the registration age
Of women available for employ
rnent to include those of so years
Mr.. Bevin said.
& To ease the labor shortage in the
coal mines, Mr.. Bevin said, all men
eligible for military service will be
given the option of entering the
mines. Heretofore this option had
been extended only to men over rs
eff a sufficient number do not
exercise the option" Mr.. Bevin de-
clared, my first line OF approach
will be to direct men between 1e
and Is, who would otherwise be
called to the forces, to enter the
mines instead"

Neville Miller Calls
p efriIIo' 81 Concert
Plan 'Hypocriiical'
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 2s.--Neville
Miller, president Of the National As
ISOLATION OF Broadcasters, said yes
tterday that James G. Petrillo's plan
to provide free symphonic concerts
to the Nation was 4 gesture "in-
equaled for hypocrisy"
Mr.. Petrillos" the NAB chief
said, in q statement, 'has done more
to prevent symphonic music in the
United States than any other man
in the history Of the country"
As president Of the American
Federation of Musicians tAFL), Mr..
Petrillo last August banned union
members from making musical re-
cordings and radio transcriptions In
an employment dispute with record
ing and radio companies.
He announced Tuesday that his
union planned to spend between
$3.50, 600 and $500 900 to provide for
all expenses in sending large city
philharmonic and symphony Or
chestras to small communities in ac-
cordance, he said, with q suggestion
made to him by President Roosevelt.
Mr.. Petrillo said that If the $780,
600 were appropriated by the union
1t would provide for $40 concerts.
THE good faith Of Mr.. Petrillo's
proposal may be attacked on
the basis of his own figures" said
Mr.. Miller. %" Mr.. Petrillo is
allotting less than $40 . man per
concert" to cover all expenses.
ut is obvious, therefore" Mr..
Miller continued, that Mr.. Petrillo
proposes to pay the men no COM
pensation or only nominal COM
pensation." Mr.. Petrillo commended
that records used commercially In
smaller cities deprived local must
clans of employment opportunities.
Mr.. Miller said.
Yet he added, when the union

reserves for future use Of countries
freed from enemy occupation.
The VIA said that 8 ounces 4
week civilian per capita would be
available for direct purchase under
ration coupons and about IS ounces
for indirect consumption in such
items as restaurant meals, bakery
products, nnayonnaise, salad dress
ings, canned fish, potato chips, con-
fections and fried nuts.
In addition to the edible fats and
oils, civilians will be allotted about
5000. 600 900 pounds of fats and oils
for 1nedible purposes, principally
soap. during the 12-month period.
Point Values Changed.
The ONCE of Price Administra-
ton announced Monday that for
August the value of butter will be
increased two points pound, while
most fats and oils would be reduced
one point. The point value OF meats
remains about the same.
Meantime, the Weather Bureau
reported that a lack of rain was
beginning to be felt seriously in
some Midwestern farm areas.
The bureau said that while the
food and feed crop situation has
not yet reached critical stage, in
creased moisture is needed to main
tain growth In many localities
Some deterioration Of crops has
taken place already, particularly in
the lower Great Plains area.
Rain was said to be needed in
most sections from the Middle
Atlantic States westward and south
westward to the Rocky Mountains.

GRAND LAKE, Colo, july 90
Men mindful of mountain perils
have abandoned hope that Ernest
Policy. %, could still be alive-near-
ly week after he started to climb
13000-foot Lindbergh Peak and van
iShed.
D. A. Hester, Winter Park ranger,
called off organized search last night
for the missing Cleveland war plant
worker, and said there was virtually
no chance Mr.. Policy is alive. II
his body is found, it would be by
accident, the ranger said.
Mr.. Policy started last Friday to
climb the peak, where small glaciers
make footing difficult. He and
William Mays, "a. also a Cleveland
war worker. were on a vacation trip.
Mr.. Mays remained near the base

A WAY TO HELP WIN

Waging a total war makes so
many requirements of the people
in so many different ways, that we
are apt to overlook some of the
really important things we can do.
One of the opportunities which
have not been taken seriously
enough by many of us is that of
selling typewriter to the armed
services.
This need is real. Advices from
Washington are that the Army has
made really desperate plea to the
WPB for immediate delivery of
100000 of the 100000 typewriters it
requires. Our military leaders
want these machines at once, for
use In the field. Any brief study of
modern warfare makes it evident
how important they must be in CO.
ordinating lightning thrusts at the
enemy. The need of the Navy is so
acute. it is reported. that Admiral
King ordered that the usual COM
plement of typewriters on ships be
cut down so that new vessels can
be supplied.
In total, the requirement is for
100000 fighting typewriters, stand
ard model. made since 1935-every
one of them needed for fighting
unit. The only way in which these
machines can be secured is for the
public to sell a share of its supply. I
There is no other source.
Americans in our smaller towns, +
as patriotic as those in the larger
cities, have sometimes found it diff
ficult to contact an authorized gov
ernment contractor about machines
they wish to sell. Knowing the
complexities of the job, that is un-
However. Maxwell V.
Miller, recently appointed execu-
tive director of the Royal Type
writer Company's drive to help the
WPB in the job. has announced that
a letter to him at Park Avenue,
New York City. will get his imme-
diate attention If you are unable to
locate one OF these contractors.

coordinated plans" The same for
mula, he says, would enable re-
sponsible representatives of the
Senate and House to reach agree
ments on such subjects as internal
revenue, social security. military
aviation and whatever. of great
importance requires similar inten-
sive study and action.

of what Congress can do TO lift it to
