5.5% Increase Asked
In Price Of Meals in
Agency Cafeterias

A petition for SIS per cent in
crease in prices charged in Govern
ment cafeterias here was on file to-
day with the Office of Price Admin
istration.
The request was made Yesterday
by Government Services. Inc, oper-
ators Of cafeterias in Government
buildings that feed approximately
100000 Federal employees daily
In filing the application for price
increases Capt. Frank w. Hoover,
general manager of Government
Services, claimed that the corpora
tion had sustained an $4,000 oper-
ating loss during the first four
months of this year He estimated
that the loss for May would be
around $4,000.
Capt. Hoover said the corporation
had been operating at a loss ever
since they granted 20 per cent
increase in wages to their employees
last January.
At that time Government Serv-
Ices sought 10 per cent increase
on food prices, but no action was
ever taken on the request. The 10
per cent request has been pared to
SIS per cent because operating costs
have not been as high as antici-
pated, Capt. Hoover said.

Bethlehem Steel Gives 

New York, May G. (UP) The Bethelehem Steel Company granted an Recent hourly wage increase to- day to workers in its East Coast shipyards, averting alkou scheduled for Wednesday.
 The wage increase, which is re- troactive on all work since March Ii, was contained in a new wage agreement reached between the company and representatives of the C.IO. Marine and Shipbuilding Workers Union.
 The increase is retroactive to Dec 4, 1945, at the Quincy, Mass, and Fairfield, Md, yards and on new struction at the Staten Island, N Y., yard.
 The new contract will run until June g, 1947, and will be referred to union locals for ratification, a joint statement by company and union officials stated.
 The unions claim that the com- pany should pay the increase re- troactively to Dec. 4 at Bethlehem's other yards was reserved without prejudice because the question of reimbursements of costs on the wage increase at those yards has not been settled, the statement said.
 The agreement automatically can- celed a threatened strike at the bethlehem yards which union lead- CTS had been empowered to call May 8.
