WPB Fixes Quality.
In general, this pattern will be
followed: WPB fixes quality and
size specifications, before granting
material to manufacturers. For
every level of manufacturers prices,
OPA sets corresponding retail
price. With each shipment the
maker notifies the seller of the
ceiling, and the retailer must plainly
mark the price on the garment.
AS representative prices OPA list
ed boys underwear shorts at 38 cents
retail, girls panties at A cents.
girls blouses from 81 to $1.15, boys
pants and knickers, 81 40 to $1.95.
The curb against overfancying ap-
plies to all shipments after January

It will reduce prices of cotton fin

Overfnishing consists of printing
fancy designs on cloth that was nor
mally merely dyed, printed simply
or just bleached white.
Cites Price Rise in Clothing.
Saying that food prices dropped 4
per cent while clothing rose II per
cent, Mr.. Bowles said that for the
last Is months price rises in cloth
ing have been the greatest threat
to the program to hold the line on
the cost of living.
The decrease in food prices has
compensated until now for the in
crease in clothing. The result, as
a whole, is that the cost of living
has been practically stable for the
past year and half
However, any further increases in
clothing prices would endanger the
whole sterilization program. For
this reason we are making every
effort to stop them and I am con-
f1dent we will be successful
Erred on Bankhead Amendment.
Mr.. BoWles admitted, in connec-
ton with yesterdays announcement,
that he was too conservative in his
original estimate of the increase in
textile mill prices resulting from the
Bankhead amendment.
Mr.. Bowles said the amendment
to the Sterilization Act passed by
Congress last summer increased
prices to the textile manufacturers
more than 100000 a year.
Following passage of the amend
ment, Mr.. Bowles took exception to
estimates that the increase might
be as much as $150,000,000 He Their
estimated it at SIS, 900 900 to $780,
100000.
The Bankhead amendment pro-
vided that ceiling prices on each ma
jor cotton textile item, separately
considered, must reflect parity tc
the cotton grower.
Yesterday, Mr.. Bowles expressed
the hope that this huge charge
would not be passed on to consumers
by manufacturers.

the center said They quoted this
oft-repeated explanation given by
the women:
The last thing my husband said
before he went in the service was
that he wanted to think of us right
here in our home, knowing all the
things around u.s."
The desire of the women to work
was blamed partially on a misun-
derstanding of the financial ar

center pointed out that If a service
mans family moves in with an
other family and the mother who
moves in is the "homemaker" of
the arrangement, she usually will
get room and board free for her
family and will have her allotment
clear"
On the other hand, If the one
who moves in goes to work she can
afford to pay room and board, so
the one who stays home also will
be able to supplement her allot-
ment, it was explained.

Local Group ormed Fo Postwar Planning
Thief Steals March
Of Dimes C0ntainer

1t is inconceivable that the i'm
pulse to acquire ill-gotten gains
would tempt a Browning adde's
cent to steal March of Dimes
container from a local business
establishment.
That was what happened few
days ago.
In stealing that currency, the
thief has not enriched himself,
for he has proven himself to be
pennywise and a million dollars
foolish.
Just envisage those little glad
deninH hearts of children of the
community, who seek to do their
share towards a happier world, a
nobler world by dropping into
that container what they could
spare towards h March of
Dimes Fund.
Children of the community,
one and all. as of the last several
years. have found the grandest
JOY in being able to contribute
each January towards the March
of Dimes project, since it means
so much for bringing sunshine
TO unfortunates stricken with in
fantile paralysis.
To steal from this fund is to
sin against the afflicted. 1t is to
sin against a President of the
United States. 1t is to sin against
those fine moral tenets that are
the warp and wool of life, itself.
Today men are bleeding and
dying for the cause of humanity,
for it is the issue of this terrible
world war.
One who steals a March of
Dimes container is of mighty
poor substance. H mocks
the sacred blood of dying SOL
diers. He trespasses upon the
Garden Of Honor.

following meeting Monday had
certified the list of winning CAN
