Closing New York Stocks

NEW YORK, March Is GNS)-
Income tax blanks today dis
placed the stock tape rs a center
OF attention for the speculative
community. As a result volume
fell off to bare 750.00O-Share

ception 10 the general quiet. II
started jumping at the opening
bell and before the day was well
along had gone up A. 10 6Sla,
bringing its gain in the last two
sessions 10 9 points. This stock
is stipulated by the fact that IL

split in Louisville and Nashville

Elsewhere the trend was frac-
tionaI, Steels were firmer and

More Women

One OF the outstanding dlf-
ferences in factory personnel
now as compared with peace
time operations is the large In
crease IN the number of women
and colored people employed.
At the peak Of prewar produc-
ton, ChrySler Corp. had else
women on It's pay rolls. Today
there are 1928 doing a much
wider variety OF work than they
did before.
Before Pearl Harhor women
were assigned principally to
office work, car wiring. sewing
machine sections, light inspec-
tion, packing and bench work.
In the war. Chrysler Corp,
women are working on produc-
ton machines. IN foundry core

See Less Sugar

WASHINGTON. March Is
The first Cuban sugar mill. Cen

ing operations on the 1945 sugar
crop in approximately two months
with production Of 10000 bags
against 2l6,96O bags last year,
according 10 private advices from
Havana
The short run is indicative Of a
lower prospective crop in Cuba
because Of the smaller available
cane supply and the harmful ef-
fects of the prolonged drought.
Last season. some mills had
sufficient cane 10 continue grind

HALTED BY CONGRESS

Despite the administration re-
peated assertions, Congress is
evidently not going TO pass any
drastic work-or-fight bill. The
nearing of the end of the war in
Europe confirms this conclusion.
Last week, business and labor
effectively presented arguments
that there is no general shortage
of labor, but that much inef-
ficiency IN its use exists; and that
coercion would not get results.
since work is very different from
fighting.
And from the West Coast trou-
BILE area came a government re-
port that labor shortages were
disappearing. Unquestionably, if
the government would encourage
incentive pay instead of schemes
of high minimum weekly earn
ingS, the problem would largely
disappear.

PLAN QUESTIONED

Congress is questioning the use
by the executive of nd-leaSe
arrangements 10 rehabiitate Eu-
ropes peacetime industries.
In the discussion OF order
MISS, it came aut that there has
been no real consultation with
industry. and that a thoroughly
bureaucratic procedure has been
used. One competent business
witness testified that instead Of
increasing the production of low
priced garments. the result would
be 10 increase the production of
middle-priced garments. and that
quality deterioration might make
even these really high priced.
While the administration tried
10 force through the Breton
Woods scheme Of world finance,
IL was clear that no real argu-
mentS for either the fund or the
world bank were being given. The
opposition will soon be heard
from.

KADICALISM ON WANE

A number Of recent develop
ments give ground for some hope
that radicalism may be on the
wane. For example. the Presi-
dent signed the bill giving a three
year moratorium 10 the insurance
companies which have been at
tackled under the antitrust laws.
He also seems TO have made a
good selection in appointing Vim
son 10 take Jesse Jones place as
head of the~Federal Loan Ad-
minlStration-certain far better
than Wallace.
Most significant. however, is the
stout resistance IN Congress, and
among business and labor inter-
ests, to such dangerous extensions
of executive power as are con-
tanned in the war manpower,
lend-lcsae, and low-eHd clothing
proposals.
