MILL WAGE BOOST
IN SOUTH 0KEHED

WASHINGTON, April 49, Up -
Sterilization Director William H.
Davis approved today general
wage increase of five cents an
hour for $4,000 textile workers in
81 northern and southern mills.
In approving an order of the
War Labor Board authorizing the
increase, Davis described the need
for, greater production of textile
goods as "of almost unique signifi-
canoe in its critical relation to
hold down the cost Of living"
The War Labor Board order pro-
vides minimum rate of IS cents
and hour and an increase of five
cents an hour in rates above the
minimum. Since the present mini
mum rate is so cents an hour,
this amounts to general in
creases of five cents an hour.
The WLB order specifically ap-
plies to $4,000 textile employees OF
the 81 participating companies rep
resented by the Textile Workers
Union of America (CIO).
Davis said the OPA had advised
him the wage increase would not
in ITSELF require an industry.
