 Plan for Vets

New York, Jan. 7-(UP)-Gov- ernment regulations definitely are retarding production of mems ap- parel, Arthur Besse, president, Na- tional Association of Wool Manu- factuers, declared yesterday in a blistering attack on the directive that woolen mills set aside 85 per cent of certain fabrics for the much critized low-lost clothing program.
 In a telegram to Civilian Pro- duction Administrator J. D. Small Besse said "the program was im- practical and instead of helping, was interfering with the produc- ton and orderly distribution ot facrics for mems wear apparel"
 Besse said the order added mo- thing but confusion to the indus ary's efforts to increase produc- tion."
 Despite the unanimous advice of the Industry Advisory Committee, Besse wired Small, you haven't seen fit to issue schedules of ordei 328-B, allegediy to assist in pro- noting the production of men'i wear apparel especially for veterans.
 Besse charged that the order il completely unjustified and imprac' tical;" that it is obviously writer by people with no knowledge of thu operation of the industry" and hal compliance is practically imps' sible."

Actresses
 Too Young To Be Chic

Hollywood, Jan. 8-(UP)-Holly- wood actresses are poorly dressed because they aren't old enough to be chic" fashion designer Orry- Kelly said today. A A woman must live a long time before she becomes clothes con- scious "in the real style sense," the designer said.
 Moreover. screen actresses as- semble their wardrobes like anna teur cooks who toss everything into one kettle and produce a stew," he added.
 Tn the sense of high style, which characterizes certain ladies in Par is, London and New York, there is no movie personality who can be considered smartly turned out.
 Some of our girls go about look ing appalling.
 Take June Allyson, for instance, running around in public with a bandanna tied over her head and slacks skipping around her legs but even that complete non- fashionable attitude is better to me than being half under-dressed or half oyer-dressed-or both at the same time" Y
 Orry-Kelly excepted Rosalind Russell, Loretta Young, Merle ober- on and Marlene Dietrich-in that order,
 Lana Turner may turn out to be the most smartly dressed woman in pictures" he said.

 They're raising an awful fuss" Chairman Alvin E. Weber of the Town Line reconstruction committee said. They went away to fight for their country and returned to find they haven't any. They don't like it."
 Town Line was part of the confed- eracy from 1881 until last Oct. 27 when the reconstruction committee at the suggestion of President Tru- man-got the townsfolk together at a barbecue. It was then the citizen ry passed a resolution suspending the ordinance of secession and an- other which asked the protection" of Gov. Thomas E.

Whole People Changed
 MacArthur;s Reorientdtion .Of Japan Terrific--Baillie

New York, Jan. 8-UP)-Genera Douglas MacArthur's occupation of Japan is resulting in one of the greatest and speedieSt changes in the way of life of 8 whole people in modern world history, Hugh Bail lie, president of the United Press, said.
 Addressing a meeting of the Uni versity Club, Baille said that Mac Arthur's plan for dismantling the Japanese government, separating church and state, reorienting its system of education all were making terrific strides.
 Baillie described conditions in the Orient as he found them on re- cent trip in the course of which he interviewed General MacArthur, Emperor Hirohito and Generalissi- mo Chiang Kai-shek.
 Food Needed By People
 "When I was there" he said, Japan was like vast concentra- ton camp run by its inmates. At that time MacArthur had no plans for seeing that the Japanese got any food other than that which they could produce themselves. HIS recent report on the occupation, however, indicates that we are going to have to give some thought co sending them food in order to pre- vent catastrophe which would make the military policing job even more difficult.
 "MacArthur is moving in more strongly on the Japanese all the time. When the occupation began he declined, even when asked, 10 indicate whether or not he would approve certain leaders for cabinet posts. Now he mas ordered the cab inet purged of all of those who m the past had anything to do with Japanese militarism.
 'ThiS is a sharp and Signincant change in MacArthur's policy and indicates the extent to which he has moved in on the Japanese gov- ernment, now that the Emperor has declared himself not divine.
 Eclipsing SpeculatiOns MdCAI b1AuA D ACOA 6OAAASUSASAA
 the Japanese nation and his ois- mantling of their government IS eclipsing anything anyone thought he would do or anything that was thought possible when he took con- trol last fall.
 Then the primary problem was demobilizatton of Japanese military forces and that was accomplisneo on schedule. At the same time free dom of speech and of the press were established in Japan for the first time in it's long history. Alter that Shintoism was deprived Of its state support and finally on New Years ay the emperor made his Years day the emperor made his was not a divinity.
 Tt is now clear that MacAr- thurs plan for the occupation has moved smoothly from low into high gear and is resulting in one of the greatest and speediest changes IF the way of life of a whole people I in modern world. history"

Albany, N. Y., Jan. 6 - (UP) Thirteen northeastern and north central states, banded togethe1 against an Interstate Cofnnfefce Commission order increasing freight rates in the North and lowering them in the south, today were de-l termined to fight by every legal means"
 In a resolution, the states pointed out that the order, calling for rates on manufactured goods to iricrease 10 percent in the north and drop 70 percent in the south, "has now been temporarily stayed by a decision of special federal court of three judges"
 This stay affords relief pending final decision on petition challeng- ing the legality of the order" 1t was added.
 The resolution, made public by New York State Commerce Comrais- sioner M. P. Catherwood, labeled ng false the theory that any section may benefit at the expense of any other.
 We seek no special privilege" " the states said. Neither will we stand by idly and see special privi- lege accorded to others ct our ex- pense."
 The order twas adopted after years of political agitation by the south," the resolution contended. 1t would place arbitrary and artificial burdens totalling millions of dollars on the northeast and north central states, it added.

 Would De Disastrous,
 Administrator Warns

New York, Jan. s.--(UP)--John D. Small, administrator of the Civi- Han Production Administration, speaking here before the National Retail Dry Goods Association Co- ventioVn warned that discarding price controls now would set off an atomic chain explosion of inflation.' J
 Small compared the post World War I period of 1920 when prices rose 100 per cent above 1914 prices, to the present, with prices only 70 per cent above 1S4l levels.
 "The next six months," Small said "are critical to the industrial future of our country. Given a good mea- sure of industrial peace, and aSsUr- ance that we will not have runaway imitation, we can look forward to years of the highest prosperity this country has ever experienced.
 Small assured the businessmen that the Civilian Production Ad- ministration would not hold onto controls over industry "a day longer than we have to-"
 The administrator expressed par ticular concern over production shortages in the textile field, and said that the mems suit shortage will be present for "a long time to come"
 However, he said, during the .irst quarter of this year 100000 dozen mems shirts and 100000 mems undershorts should be produced to help ease those shortages.
 "The Civilian Production Admini- stration Is expediting production wherever possible" Small said, by the use of preferential ratings, by breaking bottlenecks where lack of production of one item holds up others, and by special assistance in individual cases"
 Some other figures on particular consumers goods items brought out by Small showed that mechanical refrigerators were being shipped at rate of l50,0O0 a month, washing machines at 80,O00 a month, radios at 100000 a month, alarm clocks at 100000 a month, and electric irons at 2lO,OO0 a month. All these items were at about half the prewar rate of shipment.
