NEW YORK - In a reSolu-
ton passed by the directors
the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored
People declares it's opposition
to New York's Sydenham Hos
pital, asserting that the hos
pital fosters segregation and
that under Sharpened postwar
competition for hospital posts
colored applicants for staff ap-
pointmentS in other hospitals
will be Shunted to the "seg-
regated" institution.
The resolution reads:
"The establishment of such
a hospital in a community
which is largely a segregated
one, due to various pressures
and g'ch legal devices as re-
Stricted covenants and the
Vaccinations of real estate in
tereStS to confine colored peo-
pie to a ghetto, makes Syden-
ham Hospital inevitably Segre-
gated in its clientele. 1t is
understood that already ar-
proximately 95 per cent of the
out-patient and impatient load
is colored.
"The NAACP is further con-
vinced that despite resolutions
passed by county medical Soci-
cites and other bodies the un-
publicized effect of Sydenham
Hospital will be a quiet refusal
to qualified colored doctors and
nurses of admission to the
stats of other hospitals, public
and private. When the compe-
titicn for hospital posts aagin
becomes keen after the war,
the conscious or subconscious
tendencies Of admission COM
mitteeS' will be to suggest to
colored applicants for staff
appointments that they apply
to Sydenham Hospital.

mends diSapproval of the sy-

Dropin Clothes
Quality Hits
Poor Hardest

It's the people with the least
money who are hit hardest by the
wartime rise In the cost of clothing.
Quality of low priced clothing items
such as wage earners and lower
paid salaried workers buy has dete-
riorated at least 20 per cent.
A worker with $40 to spend on
clothes, gets only So worth for his
money, due to decline In quality.
elm the higher priced, branded
items, deterioration may not exceed
ten per cent, but in the case of the
cheaper, unbranded goods which
make up the bulk of production, It
ranges from rs to 40 per cent"
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-02-14

"In the case of mems clothing, quail
ity deterioration was found to have
ranged from IS to 35 percent, with
the greatest drop in variability taxi
ing place in the lower price ranges.
In these latter lines, workmanship
was worsened and inspection stand
ards lowered. In mems shirts, seconds
are being sold as first quality, and
cheaper materials are being used for
the inside of collars with the result
that they cannot be turned"
A special inquiry made for the
labor members report in wOmen's
clothing, found quality deterioration
even greater, ranging from 80 to
40 percent, with an average Of at
least rs percent. Marked deteriora-
tion in the fabrics used, especially
in cotton and rayon, and poorer
workmanship were also found.
"The situation is worse in the lower
price lines" states the report. Lin
ings and interlinings use the poorest
woods and cotton mixtures, and the
sizes are way below former standards.
Wartime changes in supply have
brought other forms of quality depre-
citation.
Taking all these and other factors
Into account, the report concludes
that overall depreciation in the low
price shoes amounts to at least 20
percent.
Related closely to quality deterio-
ration, states the report, is trading
up, which results essentially from
the fact that manufacturers find it
more profitable to produce high price
lines than low price lines, and dealers
to sell them"
The report finds that trading-up,
exclusive of quality deterioration, has
brought about at least a II percent
The CIO news. (Cumberland, Md.) 1942-????, 1944-02-14

higher.
Wartime shifts to new job centers
take a heavy toll of expense for NOV
ing. According to the BIS itself, some
five million people have moved to new
jobs; yet the Index does not take this
obviously heavy expense into account.
And just as it fails to include moving
expenses, it also passes over the added
expense many workers have through
the need to keep up two living places
one for the family and another for
themselves in a new location.
These are the main reasons why
the official BIS cost of living figures
are so wide of the mark. You'll find
the details I'm the stories covering
each section of the joint CIO-AFL
report In this supplement TO The
CLIO NEWS.

for each catalogue. II the line was
discontinued, the next higher line was
taken. In II instances, items disap-
peared completely.
The mail order survey showed that
the prices charged for the 1876 items
still available for pricing in 1943 rose
by tit percent. The survey was based
on a study of II items covered in the
Sears catalogues, which increased 71.9
percent in price, and IS items in the
Ward catalogues, which went up ia
percent.
I'VE are confident" states the re-
port, that this percentage increase OF
TT is reliable and conservative
measure of the rise in the cost of
cheaper grade garments. The figure is
reliable because of the size of these
concerns"

Deterioration Ignored

3. In its third and most extensive
method of studying increase in cloth
ing costs, the report takes up num-
Der of factors arising out of wartime
living, ignored by the BIS survey.
These include deterioration in quality;
trading-up, whereby customers are
induced to take higher priced goods
by the device of disseminating the
cheaper lines; selling at over-ceiling
prices and decrease in mark-down
prices and special sales.
Most important of these, declares
the report, is deterioration in quality,
which it finds is responsible for at
least 20 percent decrease in value.
The report finds that 1.-THE quality
of low priced clothing items-those
commonly purchased by wage-earn-
ers and lower salaried w0rkers-has
deteriorated by at least 20 percent
during the war years. That Is,
today's expenditure of one dollar for
clothing will, on account of quality
decline alone, buy only 80 cents
worth of variability. -.
"A special inquiry conducted for
this report among clothing technicians,
trade paper writer's and manufacturers,
found that measured in terms OF
poorer workmanship and sleaZy fab
RIGS. deterioration in the quality OF
children's and infants wear has been
at least Is percent.
