Washington, April 2S-(UP)-Re-
moval Of all government controls
on wages of the lower income groups
VISA recommended today by a Sen
ate committee studying the effect Of
wartime living costs on white COL
lar and fixed income workers.
The committee, after three
months of study, found that 5000
month provides "a very narrow
margin of living" for any family in
these times.
GAS a cocrete proposal" it sug-
gested "the removal of all controls
from incomes of 5000 or less per
month for heads of families and
$3.50 or less per month for unmar-
ried persons"
Employers should be permitted
to raise salaries or wages 10 these
levels without application of any
kind to the War Labor Board" the
report proposed.
In addition the committee sug-
gested that:
The War Labor Board cease ap-
plying the little steel formula to
substandard wages and salaries.
Slate, county and municipal gov
erilments increase the salaries Of
low-paid workers, particularly
shcool teacehrs.
The Office of Price Administra-
ton invoke even more rigid price
controls and be given sufficient
fufndS to assure strict enforce
nent.
Social security and public assist
ance benefits be increased mad ex-
tended in accordance with the rec
concentrations Of the Social Secur-
ity baord.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
get sufficient funds to prepare a
cost of living index that will "ac-
curtaely reflect changes in living
standards"
The WLB provide both employers
and employees with easily UNDER
stood explanations Of Its policies
and rules.

from Nirnitz's headquarters at Pearl
Harbor said the plans of both COM
manders had been completely inte-
grated so that the full weight Of
their armed might can be concen-
trated on the enemy in future OPP
erationS.
The very fact of the announce
ment itself was considered signifi-
cant. It was recalled that the an.
nouncement Of q similar meeting
between Admiral william F. Halsey,
Jr., South Pacific commander, and
Mac Arthur came Just before the
drive on the northern Solomons and
the invasion Of New Britain Island.
Just what new operations have
been planned were, Of course, a
military secret. But observers here
believe that all recent Allied moves
in the Pacific point to a two-prong-
ed drive on the southern Philippines,
with MacArthur's men approaching
from the south and NimitZ's am
phibious forces driving in from the
east through the central Pacific.
