Experts believe n much stronger
case can he presented for modification
of the Little Steel formula as it
applies to many other Industries, than
the steel industry itself.
Government resistance To any change
in the wage formula is based upon the
contention that such modification
would compel increases i'm prices and
promote imitation. The steel industry
in support of this contention, has pub,
licly warned that higher wages in that
industry would force higher prices fol

ever, it can be proved incontestably
that higher wage rates can be alb,
SOrbed without neceSSitating Il higher
price for the product.
Key To Attack
Key to the attack on the Lift IL
Steel" formula is the finding of Il
joint AFL-cIO investigation that the
cost of living has increased 43.5 pen
cent since Jan !, 1341. The formula il
based on an official finding that tho
cost Of living increased - per cent
between that date and May, 1912
Therefore, it permits wage increases
of - per cent over the rate prevailing
on Jan. |, 194l.
The formula contained an implicit
| assurance that if il could be ShOWI
| that the cost of living increased fur
ther in the future wage rates Shoul'
be adjusted accordingly. However, The
Government proceeded to regard The
formula as the final adjustment for tn.
the plain facts with regard to The con
tnuing rise in living costs.

Christmas Fun ]: Planned a. ! cd! For '!'. Gls j Is: ::,*%5 .a&# #$$f:. ."** At Hospital

The Red Cross unit of the Sta tion Hospital has arranged for number of special features to take place during the Holidays in order to give hospitalized GIs really merry Christmas.
 On Sunday religious services will be held in the Rec Hall at the Hospital and the Junior Red Cross of Enfield will sing Christmas Carols in the wards.
 On Christmas Eve at 1880, Jaques Gordon, of the famed Cor don String Quartet, will give a violin concert at the Rec Hall to which all Bradley personnel have been invited. Following the concert the Windsor Canteen will provide refreshments.
 On Christmas morning a mass will be held at 0800. During the day many parties will be held in the wards and gifts will be dis tributed to the patients. In the evening movies will be shown in the wards. Patients who are re- cuperating and able to leave the hospital have been invited to enjoy Christmas at many homes in the vicinity of the Base.
 During the past week the pa- tients were given a special treat when members of the American Legion Auxiliary of Hartford ar- rived at the Base with their Gift Shop. All hospital patients had an opportunity to choose a gift for a loved one and the gift of his choice was then mailed to the lucky per son. All gifts were given free to the men. On Wednesday after noon the University of Connecticut Carollers gave concert at the Rec Hall. On Thursday the Rolling Kitchen of Hartford gave the patients a party and all received gifts. On Friday evening the radio program "Quiz of Two Cities" was broadcast from the Rec Hall.

Bond Drive Nears End
 But War Isn't Over

On December thirty-frst the Sixth War Loan Drive at Bradley Field will come to a close. It is ex- pected by that date that Bradley will again have smashed it's quota as it has in the past two drives. However, every Bradleyite must remember that the buying of Bonds must not end with the close of the Drive-that the War is not yet won.
 So long as casualty lists are printed :. so long as prayers are said each night for those in the Armed Forces-that's how long War Bond drives must continue.
 The time has not yet come for relaxation. We must continue to serve personally and to continue to invest as much as we can so that ammunition and supplies may reach our fellow CTS fighting over seas. Someday soon, we ourselves may be there with the boys who are doing the fighting, and when we are, we'll know the real value

However, men on separate rations will pay the regular 25 cent dinner toll while guests will be taxed 75 cents, a small fee for a real Holiday feast. All GIs may invite their immediate families and one guest. The Mess Hall will also be especially decorated for the occasion.
