BY ihs Assoeio.sd Pres,

BALTIMORE, Mar. 23.-Two ba.
bies were rescued by being passed
from a third-floor window to an
adjoining dwelling and thier parents
escaped down a firemen's ladder as
two-alarm fire swept house in
central Baltimore today.
Twenty-nine other prescns were
driven into the street.
No one was injured but the fire
starting on the first floor of the
tnree-story dwelling, wrecked the
lower floor and damaged the upper
stories.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles R. Funk
houser, asleep in their third floor
apartment, were awakened by
smoke. They grabbed their two
children, Raymond, 2 months. and
Charles, II months, from their
cribs and ran to front window
with them.
They were about to drop the chill
dren onto a mattress outspread
below by neighbors when Patrolman
John Young called to them to wait.
He ran into an adjoining building
and went to the window closest to
the Funkhouser apartment. Strad-
ding the sill, he leaned far enough
across to get the babies from their
father.
The parents escaped down a fire
ladder raised few moments later
to the window.
Battalion Chief Charles Nav said
the cause OF the fire was undeter-
mined.

5kimpy-Length Coats
For Women Removed
As Stores Obey CPA

Hundreds of women,s spring coats
designed for Easter wear were with
drawn from stock today by depart
ment stores and women's apparel
shops after 1t was found that the
garments fell short of the minimum
33-mch-l length required by Civilian
production Authority regulations.
CPA oflcials charged that the
coats have been manufactured as
much as inches short of the a.
mcE fgure. The officials said that
several OF the larger companies
manufacturing women's coats were
involved in the violation.
The CPA regulations were insti-
tuted during the war to prevent style
changes when stocks were low. An
otner reason for the order was the
belief that the 33-inch minimum
Would keep manufacturers from
sklmplng on materials without low
ering prices.
Department store officials here
SAID that the ruling would apgra-
vate an already serious shortage
OF women's coats in stock. MANY
women will have to give up their
plans for new coat for Easter"
one official said.
The CPA said that coats recentlv
received by the stores range every
wnere from Is to 80 inches. They
SAID that manufacturers probably
thought the order on 33-inch coats
would be overlooked because of this
years shorter and tighter style
trend over April, 1912, when the
ruiing went into effect. But the
current style isn't hip high by any
means" a CPA official said.
Meanwhile, CPA said it would
meet next month with the manu-
LECTURERS to work out a peacetime
revision of the order.

AS delegates worked on the
wage program, Murray told the
convention that corporations in
manufacturing industries had II
billion dollars available for pay
increases next year. He warned
of an imminent economic bust"
if workers buying power was not
substantially raised.
Emphasizing that the CLIO
will not engage in "repressive
processes, Murray described
the widely-pubIicized 'anti-COm-
munist' resolution as u reaf-
firmation of CLIO policy.
HE pointed out that the CLIO
will not only not tolerate Inter
ference" from the Communist
party, but similarly rejects inter
ference from any other political
party or group.
The convention also went on
record early this week in support
of the World Federation of Trade
Union, and urged severance Of
relations with Franco Spain and
Argentina. Calling for return
to a foreign policy of Big Three
unity, the delegates asked all gov
ernments to stop intervention in
Chinese affairs.
Preparing for strengthening
of the CLIO Political Action Com
mittee, the convention planned to
participate in greater organiza-
ton of liberal forces on broad
basis, as set forth in the "Con-
ference of Progressiyes" program
worked out recently in Chicago.
