Before plucking your eyebrows,
wash the brow with warm soap
water. This will remove all outside
matter from the pores and guard
against infection. After plucking
the stray hairs, touch few drops
of antisptic to the brows with your
finger tips.

Police Probe Only One
OF Two Hairsnip Cases

Two more women were reported
today to be victims Of Washington's
hair thief, but police declared they
would investigate only the report
that Miss Clair Rosenthal, 81, Of
1914 South Capitol street, was shorn
by the phantom barber last Sat-
urday.
Police said her complaint would be
investigated because it was regis
tered through the newly set up de-
tective squad assigned to catch the
mysterious hair cutter.
A second woman, who is employed
at the War Department, will receive
no police attention to her complaint
that the shipper cut her hair of
nine days ago. The woman pre-
sented her charge to a newspaper
instead Of taking it to 1t. Richard
McCarty's special hair squad, In
spector Robert j. Barrett said.
Meanwhile, the mother of a L.
year-old girl-earlier reported VIC
tim of the hair cutter-came for
ward yesterday, police said, to have
the child's name stricken from the
list of victims. The mother said the
girl had changed her hair-do last
week. The girls grandmother be-
came alarmed when she saw the
new coiffure, decided the phantom
barber had been at work, and called
police.
The mother, Mrs. Inez Limerick,
$500 block of Twenty seventh street
NE. told police, according to In
spector Barrett, that her daughter,
Marie Uhden, is not to besconsidered
one of the shippers victims.

consented to Incorporating ma

ing reasonable furlough without

Welfare Fund-Union sought 5 per

Of Contract-1'he union
called today's walkout on the basis
that GSI had rejected its proposal
for extension of the 1946 contract
and termed the action lockout.
aSI maintains there is no lockout
and opposes any further extension
because it said the union gave no
valid excuse for a 16-day delay in

and because similar extensions
have caused GSI to prepare for
disruption of service on three
separate occasions.

ready to resume collective bargain

Investigation Asked.
Potential trouble from another
source appeared for GSI, a nom
profit organization, when James B
Burns, national president Of the
American Federation Of Govern
ment Employees, asked Senator Lam
ger, Republican, of North Dakota,
new chairman-of the Senate Civil
Service Committee, for an investi-
CATION of 'tthe whole cafeteria ques-
ton"
Mr.. Burns said the time had come
to determine whether cost increases
and reduced portions are justifiahle,
and whether it might not be advis-
able to assign cafeteria operations
to some organization with the dis
tinct proviso that meals should be
served on ronprofit basis.
GSI replied it would welcome an
investigation by Congress or any
other duly authorized body SO that
Misunderstanding such as prompt
ed Mr.. Burns suggestion could be
corrected"
Meanwhile, no progress was re-
ported in negotiations on another
contract between the cafeteria
workers and National Food Corp 8

Officials Jubilant.
Recreation officials were jubilant
as the Commissioners announce
ment came Immediately after their
conference. During the conference,
Mr.. Wender said, the recreation Of
ficials pointed out that the law I'M
der which the Recreation Board op-
crates provides for recreation serv-
ices of the type proposed at E. v.
Brown School.
The Commissioners were first ap-
preached by the Library and Rec
reation Boards with detailed plans
for conversion of the school early
last year. In June, the Commis-
sioners granted a hearing to the two
interested boards and Chevy Chase
residents, but in September issued
word that the financial condition OF
the District would not permit prof.
ect of this kind.
United in the Chevy Chase Com.
munity Council, the citizens oil
Chevy Chase resumed their fight
and The Star detailed their activi-
ties. ...,.
Religious leaders Of the Chevy
Chase community, school principals
merchants along Connecticut ave-
nue., parents and Boy and Cir
Scout leaders all indorsed the plaI
for a center.
Project Given Attention.
The project was given immediate
attention when the Library Board
ran into difficulties renewing Its
lease on the cramped quarters it now
occupies at 1915 Livingston street
NV. Then, the District Office OF
Price Administration, which has
made ITS headquarters in the school
notified the Commissioners it would
yacate by February /.
Tie Commissioners last month
granted the residents of Chevy
Chase another hearing.
At that session the Commissioners
were told that the Chevy Chase area
has fewer recreationa1 facilities than
any other section of the city, that
the present quarters of the library
are inadequate and that no other
space for a library is presently avail
able.
Further Demands Feared.
The Commissioners conceded, at
that time, that the argument pre-
sented by the Chevy Chase citizens
and Library and recreation officials
were eloquent, but they questioned
whether this use of the school would
not precipitate demands for similar
facilities throughout the city.
The recreation officials today
showed them not only that the Law
provides for such facilities, but also
that centers of this kind now are
operating in other Washington
neighborhoods.

Union officials ordered members
to report to q meeting at Shiloh
Baptist Church, Ninth and p streets
NV, to map strategy. They were
to decide whether pickets would be
used, and to arrange for care Of
members during the strike.
Meeting Possible.
Richard Bancroft, local president,
said the union was preparing to hold
out until management consented to
demands for extension Of contract.
But like GSI officials, he said the
union was ready to discuss the situ-
alton at any time.
Commissioner Richard Goodrich,
of the United States Cancellation
Service. said the company and the
union had agreed to conference
at 3 pm. today, but there was no
indication either side had retreated
from it's original position.
The walkout was indicated last
Friday when union members re-
fused to ratify an agreement drawn
up by their negotiators and those
Of GSI. Arranged by three Federal
conciliators, the agreement pro-
vided an 8-cent-hour increase for
all employees.
When the union offered to con-
tinue working if .GSI would extend
the 1916 contract, management in
sisted that contract died January
IL, when the new agreement was
drawn up.
Letter Is Quoted.
In q letter to the union last night,
j. c. Niehuss, chairman of the GSI
Negotiating Committee, said man
agement refused to reinstate the
contract for the same reasons given
December 81.
'Tt is grossly unfair to the patrons
whom we serve, and to other GS1
employees who must prepare for
strike headlines, to have to meet
the threat Of q strike two or three
times during the course of contract
negotiations" Mr.. Niehuss said.
"Our position on this is the same
taken throughout negotiations this
year when we reminded you that
you threatened strike three times
last year when we extended the
contract twice before the union be-
came reasonable in its demands"
Union officials insisted it was they,
and not the company, that con-
sented to q months extension when
the 1916 contract was being nego-
tiated q year ago.
