Clothing Price Cut,
Increased Supply
Ordered byK Krug
Public Will Benefit
Under Drastic Move,
Effective in Spring
By the Associated Press.

Ds Lilt ASsOCldleQ fTeSS,
The Government today an
nOunced a drastic textile and
clothing program designed to
cut consumer costs 6 to 7 per
cent and to increase supplies of
low and medium priced essential
garments.
The plan, blanketing mills, cloth
ing manufacturers and dealers-and
admittedly tough" on them-was
announced at a joint news confer
ence by Chairman j. A. Krug of the
War Production Board and Price
Administrator Chester Bowles.
The price cuts and increase in
supplies are expected by late spring,
they said.
Supply Threatened.
The joint control will channel rs
per cent of all civilian fabric into
garments termed essential by
WPB to avert what Mr.. Krug
called "a very serious supply situa-
ton" ahead
1t will roll back prices, from
mill to dry goods stores, to the level
of the first half of 1943 as a remedy
| for what Mr.. Bowles described as
"the most serious breach in price
control Quality controls to pro-
tect consumers are included.
1--WE have enough textiles in the
country to fill essential needs if all
fabrics are made into the things
civilians need and not into a lot of
frills and ruff1es," Mr.. Krug as
serted
This plan will control the flow
of textiles into the items urgently
needed and at the same time see
that they reach the market at a
price fair to the consumer" he
added.
The eight-point WPB-OPA pro-
gram, outlined to scores of industry
representatives summoned here to-
day, follows:
l. Mills and fabric finishers will
be required to set aside large por-
ton of their civilian output for the
manufactures of needed low-priced
garments. The latter will get pri-
ority aid for these fabrics, in guam
titles based on their garment pro-
duction in the first half of 1943.
This will halt the diversion of tex
tiles into luxury and high priced
products.

BY ]. A. O'LEARY.

A completely rewritten COM
pulsory work bill, amended to
attract farm bloc support, but
carrying an anti-closed shop
clause likely to intensity labor
opposition, is being whipped into
shape today by experts of the
House Military Affairs Com
mittee.
The committee also has given
tentative approval to other changes
designed to eliminate hardship for
men 18 to As who may be directed
by their draft boards to move from
non-essential jobs to war plants
These amendments would:
Pay the transportation costs of
men sent to a job outside their
county.
Make them eligible for benefits
of the Soldiers and Sailors Civil
Relief Act, permitting postponement
of debts during the war, if their
financial condition makes it neces-
sary.
Give them the same seniority
rights for return to their old jobs
that is accorded servicemen by the
Selective Service Act.
Union Affiliations Optional.
The most controversial change in
the bill, however, was adoption of
the amendment of Representative
Andrews, Republican, of New York,
giving assigned wokers the option of
| joining or staying out of unions,
when they are sent to a plant gov
erned by closed-shop contract.
Meanwhile, it was revealed that

strike amendment, offered yester-

vided that no one could prevent a
