Wide Black Market
Admitted by BowIes

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March American
housewives are paying $1,000, ,000,-
600 tribute yearly to operators Of
food black markets, OPA Admin
istrator Chester Bowles says.
He told a New York Times forum
on THE Black Market VS.. the Amer

"the black market In our country is
very great" and is "a national dis
grace"
Thte OPA head estimated that be-

tion's $4,000, 100000 food bill this
year would 60 to the black market
and that overcharges for clothing,
tires, gasoline, furniture and other
items would account for several mil
lion dollars more.
Later, Mr.. Bowles said In broad
cast speech that the only weakness
of the cost-of Living index OF the
Bureau Of Labor Statistics is fail
ure to measure "the extent to which
clothing quality has deteriorated,'
adding that it gave good over
all picture"
The index has been criticized by
organized labor as an inadequate
barometer of the rise in living costs.
The index, Mr.. Bowles said, "does
not reflect the fact that some
clothes you buy today do not wear
as well as they used to. Nor does
it reflect the scarcity of low-cost
clothing which many Of you have
encountered"

BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, March l.-volume
Of orders to steel companies shows
little slackening and requirements
reflect the fast tempo of the in
vasion program with its careful

The trade publication said plates,

Striving to push production a
notch of two above recent high
pressure levels" the magazine said,
'the steel industry is making a
good start against March goals,
which include record requirements
that will tax every plate mill in the
Nation.
production executives have their
fingers crossed concerning unfor-
seen hurdles, such as labor disputes
and equipment breakdowns."
Iron Age said Should the war
end suddenly and Immediately
there would be 100000 to 100000
900 tons of unfabricated steel avail
able" and referred to a statement
of T. S. Fitch of the War Produc-
tion Board steel division saying
the Government had sold 1000 900
tons of excess steel and now had
about 100000 tons to SELL
Consultations and other shifts
which will place the steel industry
in more realistic position in the
light of current and postwar actu-
alities, gradually are appearing and
more moves can be expected in the
near future" the magazine said.
