What New
In Business
Washington Worried
Over Outlook Here?
BY WARD SCHULTZ

Many of the business men
assembled at the Economic Club
yesterday to hear Donald Nelson
lambast both Detroit industry
and Detroit labor missed the
real significance Of his speech.
IL seems to me one can't al
ford to overlook this fact.
The head of WPB - and In
many ways that means all those
entrusted with guiding our war
effort-must be plenty worked
up about the labor situation in
Detroit to publicly denounce
those responsible.
Think II over--the normal
thing to have done would have
been to ignore the wave OF
strikes. The fact remains that
all is comparatively quiet here
now. and II there was any like
lihood that the worst was over,
Nelson's comments would have
been superfuous and Ill advised.
That leaves only one possible
deduction-official Washington
is really apprehensiye over the
situation here!
Tempers grow shorter as the
war continues and more serious
labor strife is not al all unlikely.
II ever Detroit had real need
for industrial and labor state
manship, it is now.
Both sides would do well TO
heed Nelson's warning that
failure to provide such leader
ship not only jeopardizes war
production but postwar prosper
ity as well!

Artificial Dust Storms

Automotive engineers are ere
ating artificial dust storms to
supplement field tests of dust
proofing devices and methods
for u. s. Army motor vehicles.
The controlled storms serve the
purpose better than the natural
variety, sac was told by r. p.
French. of the Studebaker Corp.
French explained the storms
may be produced upon demand
without relying upon the whims
of the weather, the effects upon
vehicles may be observed and
measured, and abrasive sands Of
any type from any section OF
the country may be used. He
said the dust test room was
built to facilitate a project
prosecuted by army engineers
and the sac War Engineering
Board for the purpose Of pro-
tecting against excessive wear
motor vehicles operated in dusty
regions.
An army truck Is placed in
the dust test room, fan blades
are attached to its wheels, con-
trolls are led TO an observation
chamber. and the vehicle Is OPP
Grated under close observation
while fan blades and compressed
air jets agitate the dust. The
dust is volcanic ash. highly
abrasive, obtained from Phoenix.

Study Wear

French reported results rs
showing that dust passes
through engine air cleaners In
considerable quantity and causes
as much cylinder and piston
wear in 1000 miles Of test OPP
Grafton as 10000 miles on the
road. Generators and starters
become packed with dust. which
from wires and makes starter
engaging gears imperative.
Clutch housings Ill with dust,
and ignition coils and high ten
sion wires attract a coating
which hold moisture. Brakes also
collect dust, but little reaches
wheel bearings. Felt seals at
tract the dust, but tend TO re-
sist leakage. Despite closed doors
and windows, truck cab interiors
are coated with a quarter-inch
layer of dust.

 Since winning an Academy nom- ination for her role as the mother of Bernadette. Ann Revere has be- come a somebody. Tn fact, she'll probably be nominated again this year for her role of the mother in M-G-M's forthcoming National Velvet.
 She plays the role of an Eng fish woman, first to swim the Eng lish Channel, who becomes the mother of four children. One of them, 12-year- Elizabeth Taylor wins horse in a raffle for Sf1il- ling and is kidded into entering the nag in the English turf classic the Grand National. With the help of . disbarred jockey (Mickey Rooney) and her mothers sporting instinct, the girl trains the horse and it wins the race.
 A FAT" ROLE
 The role of the mother is fat one, dominating factor in the story. M-G-M tested 32 others before Ann won the part. Since then she has signed a long-term contract at 20th Century-Fox
 Actually, Ann Revere had to be discovered three times before Hol- lywood recognized her talents. The first time was when Paramount imported her from New York to star in Double Door,"
 Then she returned to Broadway for the hit "Childrens Hour" after which M-G-M signed her for the role of Ma Baxter in '"The Year ling"
 When production of this film was cancelled she wasn't rediscoyered until Bernadette.

 MAKE MOST OF IT
 And if he is to used to standing in line he does it automatically (the article says that 1t is with some difficulty that veterans are persuaded to take seats at the Veterans Service Center) he may even do the marketing for the little woman and not say "Aw let's just go on home" when they find a line outside 8 movie theater.
 But here's warning. The ar- ticle says such a state of mind will probably only be temporary.
 So make the most of it, you wives, if for a short period of time you have a man around the house who finds it hard to disagree with you, and doesn't object if you keep him waiting.

New York-Keyed to the holiday needs ahead when 8 mood is clinched by the clothes that you wear, at-home and party fashions are made more festive for this year of elegance with heightened color, applied glitter, interwoven gleam or traceries of lace.
 Featured by New York designers are three general types of gala duds-long and short dresses and the cocktail-type of suit - all of which will be swishing around the Thanksgiving table and the Christ mass tree and making an entrance at New Years Eve parties.
 Long party dresses for the forth coming holidays are shade more gala than they were last winter. and you'll see the it-more-formal look in bright sheathes of lame, damask, satin, velvet; in brown and black lace-with necklines a little lower and sleeves a good deal shorter.

Today's hand was played by Mrs. Ruth Horn of New York, who held the South cards. Her partner could have passed the hand out at two spades, but good tactics de- mand that the opponents be pushed up a little if possible. As soon as North opened the jack of spades. Mrs. Horn realized from the bid- ding that her partner was probably going to be end-played most of the time.
 Declarer won the first spade trick, cashed the ace of hearts and con- tinued with the heart six. Mrs. Horn had notice the drop of the nine on the first heart trick. Now. when North put the jack on, Mrs. Horn did not carelessly let her part her hold the. trick. She overlook with the queen in order to lead the jack of clubs, thus defeating the contract. Two clubs and two hearts were cashed by North and South.

 Ann Revere just missed winning an Academy award last March as Jennifer Jones's mother in 'sThe Song of Bernadette." Right now she's on the screen as Q "potted palm" in the Dorothy Lamour technicolor Rainbow Island" Pot ted palm is Ann's own description of the role.
 "They put me in green sa- rong, stuck some leaves in my hair. said I was the queen of the island and then left me standing on top of a sand dune with nothing to say. A potted palm could have played the part.
 But don't get the idea that Ann Revere is complaining. She likes variety in her screen roles. And Hollywood, quick to type peo- pie, Is giving her just that, rec ognizing her as @ versatile char acter actress.
 Hollywoodites usually hop train for New York when caught in the screens type casting rut. Ann Revere hopped a train for Holly wood when New York producers typed her as a neurotic female fol- lowing three years of footlight star dom in "The Children's Hour"
 It was in Hollywood that she finally proved her versatility. AN INQUENUE IN 1884
 In her first movie, in 1884, she played an ingenue. "A trifle faded but still an ingenue," she laughs
 Since that she has played 8 school teacher, 8 horror woman in Boris Karloff chiller, Jack Ben- ny's secretary in ''The Meanest Man in the World" a Billie Burke type in Standing Room Only" Crazy Mary in the new Thin Man picture, the mother of Bernadette, and cur- rently that 'potted palm"

 Since nearly all hospitals are over crowded and understaffed it is not always possible to take refuge there for minor ailments. And yet good nursing care is important for minor illness as well as that of more serious nature. In fact, it may pre- vent serious complications il1 an illness that at first seems trivial. For example, good nursing care for a mild case of influenza may pre- vent the development of pneu- monia.
 BUY EMERGENCY KIT
 If you are a boarding house girl, you will do well equip yourself with small emergency kit con- taining a thermometer, an anti septic for scratches or pin bricks, a few packages of finger dressings, small box of absorbent cotton. a roll of narrow adhesive tape, a tube of petroleum jelly, and small box of sterile gauge A box of table salt is 8 good investment. A hot salt water gargle will often bring a threatened sore throat under control. A hot water bottle is also a most comforting possession on many occasions.
 While these supplies will be use full for emergencies, nothing can take the place of the family doctor in giving 8 sense of security. If you are in a strange town ask your employer or some other responsible uerson to suggest a good doctor to whom you can go for a physical check-up occasionally, and who will advise you on health matters. Then if you are unfortunate enough to get sick you can call a doctor who knows your history, your phy- Sical strengths and weaknesses, and who feels responsible for your well fare.

Tn my opinion the increasing in- terest in tournament bridge is due largely to the fact that it is not necessary to win 8 national cham pionship to get thrill. Everyone participating in the national tour nament to be held in Atlantic City the week of December 4 will not win a championship; but every player who is on his toes can have the pleasure of giving one of the experts a bad score on 8 board.

Many of these come in velveteen, satin, pastel colored woolens and rayon crepes and in style they stick generally to two types; the draped Sheathe and the dirndl.
