0PA Will Rule Soon
On Effect Of Higher
Pay on Steel Prices
By the Associated Press.

The Office of Price Administra.
ton expects to determine in about
a month whether pay increase!
awarded CIO steelworkers woule
necessitate higher steel prices.
OPA officials said today a stud,
will begin at once.
The War Labor Board SATURDAY,
night announced wage awards, prin.
cipally on shift differentials, tha
are expected to average around
cents an hour for 100000 steel
workers.
The WLB made the awards on the
basis of eliminating inequities, with.
out altering the Little Steel for
mula which limits pay increases
compensating for living cost gains
to Is per cent above January l
1941, levels.
Big Issue Goes to President.
The unions principal demand, for
a 17-cent hourly increase that would
crack the wage ceiling, has been
passed along to the White House
The steelWorkers' second major
request, for guaranteed wage plan
was rejected on the grounds it would
subject the companies to serious
financial risks"
However, the board said it would
ask the President to name a Specia.
commission to study the whole ques-
ton of guaranteed wage plans il
industry The SteelWorkers hao
asked for guaranteed weekly pay fol-
40 hours.
Steel industry spokesmen have op-
posed the guaranteed wage plan
principally because of the fiuctua-
tions in production.
On the price-increase problem,
OPA officials pointed out the WLB
did not estimate the amount the
differential wage adjustment will
cost the industry, and that this
phase will have to be dealt with
specifically.
Higher Rate for Night Work.
Original demands of the union
were for differentials of and 10
cents, with the union estimating
the cost would be s39, 100000 and
the industry putting the figure at
SAL ,40O, 900 a year.
The WLBs awards are cents an
hour extra for the early night shift
and cents for the late night
trick.
Before these awards can become
effective, the OPA will complete
its study, submitting its findings
to Economic Stabiliza ton Director
Vinson
If OPA finds prices must rise to
meet the bigger pay bill, it will be
up to Mr.. Vinson to decide whether
1t is more important to hold the
price line or approve the awards.
An enormous amount Of data on
the whole problem already is on
hand, the OPA said, since both sides
have long been under consideration.

Still four days left to see the starring drama Tender Comrade' starring Ginger Rogers and Robert Ryan. The story of the girl next door, and the boy she marries, and of what happens when he goes off to war, is the simple but powerful theme of Tender Comrade." It strikes a timely note in presenting the star of "Once Upon Honey moon" and kitty Foyle' in part enacted by so many American wom- en today. Jo Jones, one of group of war wives employed in an air. plane plant near Los Angeles, is married to Chris, who is in uni form and overseas. With three fel- low employees, Barbara, Helen and Doris, she rents big old-fashioned house and employs a housekeeper. The four have their differences, but the loss of Barbara's husband in action brings them together, and they are united even more tightly when Jo becomes a mother, Doris soldier comes home on furlough, and while they are en- tertaining him Jo gets a fateful telegram from the War Department. She knows what it is without open ing it-but for Chris Jr. she resolves to carry on as Chris would have wanted her to do. Poginant and ap- pealing, but with many guy comedy moments to offset its dramatic scenes, Tender Comrade" Is hailed

Mafy behku 1leHlDlc. II C is a general slowing down of all physical and mental powers. This aging process is called senility and the affected person is said to be senile.
 There is no fixed time when one can be said to have reached the senile state. It depends much on oc- cupation general health, and care during the years past. In general we do not call a person senile until the time comes when his ability to take care of himself is questionable. REQUIRE SIMPLE FOOD
 The care of the aged presents certain similarities to the care of little children. Both require sim pie food, occupants suitable to strength, and protection from in factions and emotional disturb ances. Both are more or less help- less and both need the affectionate care of their own families to keep them happy.
 In another respect, their care is quite different In childhood the formation of proper habits is all- important. The future effect of every word and act must be con- sidered. But since the habits of old people have long been fixed. they may be indulged, without harm, in ways that would spoil a child. This difference makes 1t possible for the one who takes care of an old person to enjoy, with a clear conscience, the satisfaction of filling the closing days of his life with comfort and happiness.
 Since sight, smell and hearing are less acute in the aged. precau- tions should be taken to protect them from accidents.
