RUSSIAN MINERS
BUILDING HOMES
ON IO-YEAR PLAN
AP Newsfeatures

MOSCOW - Nearly 1000 private
cottages for miners of u. S, S. r. IS
Donbas are nearing completion.
An announcement stated twice as
many Donbas miners are building
private homes this year over last
year and that more than 5000 cot
tages were finished during the sum-
mer.
In addition to the individual cot
tages- which are being built by the
miners themselves with the aid of
bank credits and the collaboration
of the mining authorities apart
ment houses and two-family brick
buildings are going up.
The Donbas was one of the most
devastated areas of the war.
Each miner can obtain a 10000
rouble credit for a period of 10
years which he begins paying off in
equal installments a year after he
moves into his house.
Each miner building a home is
giyen-by his local Sov1et-a plot oI
land big enough for the house, a
small barn, chicken sheds and 9
garden or orchard.
The cottages are of individual de.
sign but retain the traditions oi
Ukrainian architecture. They are
mostly built of stone and slas
blocks and usually have three
rooms.

LONG SKIRTS? IRON
CURTAIN, SAYS
RUSSIAN
By EDDIE GILMORE
AP Newsfeatures

MOSCOW = The lady with the
exduisitely cut dress leaned across
the table and tapped the slim stem
of a champagne glass with a brill
iiantly tinted fingernail.
"What some foreigners fail to
realize. she said, 'is that we have
in Moscow three of the finest dress
makers in the world. Maybe we
have more, but | know of three"
"And what does this prove?"
asked a pretty young wife from the
British Embassy.
1T proves we have styles of our
own about dressing and dresses
and wei never go in for those long
skirts>which have come out of Paris
and New York"
Someone wanted to know why.
Because" she said with GER
tain amount of feeling, what do
long dresses do to woman? They
make out of her a human broom.
She automatically becomes a. rug
sweeper and a furniture duster."
This announcement was local
news, but the fact about the three
talented dressmakers was not.
At least two of the better dressed
( women of EuYope-whose husbands
have served in the foreign diploma
] tic corps here during recent years
had dresses, and plenty of them,
made by these dressmakers and
found them excellent.
This correspondent thought ii
would be good time to look up the
dressmakers, or at least one of
them, and she was not hard to find,
for a hot path is beat to her door
and lots of people know where it is.
OF course I'm aware of the long

added with icy emphasis, I'm a.
ware of all styles"

ing any"

She hesitated.

Building Costs Delay
Manila's War Rebuilding
AP Newsfeatures

MANILA - War-wrecked Man
ila's real reconstruction is just be-
ginning, Edward E. Roster, one OF
the leading American contractors
in the Philippines, reports.
Roster said the high cost OF
building materials and the slow
ness of the city planning commits
sion in adopting a permanent lay
out for the new city has held down
permanent building SO far.
Real estate transactions in Ma
nila during the first eight months
of 1947, however, were nearly doub-
lie those In the like period of 1916
reaching $2S,67S.3S3. Much of this
was for purchase of land on which
buildings were destroyed.
Building costs have come dowl
from last year, Roster said In 194e
costs were $50 to 500 per cent above
the 1941 level.
The former HeacOck department
store, which cost 100000 to build
in 1888. was repaired for the U. s
government last year at a cost oi
$650,000 after it had been gutteC
during the battle for Manila Al
present costs are about $50 percent
of prewar, Roster declared.

|SeIective Recovery,
Some Rails Gain
By Victor Eubonk
Associated Pres. tioensisI Write,

NEW YORK. Dec. 9.-Modest re-
coyeries continued in today's stock
market although selectiyity ruled
throughout.
Dealings were moderately active
from the start. Assorted rails and
special industries were favored while
many leaders did nothing. Gains
of fractions to point or so pre-
dominated near the fourth hour.
Professional short covering and
other buying still was credited To
the idea the list was due for a
technical revival in view of the
lengthy slide to average lows since
last June. On the other hand, tax
selling persisted as a restraint and
doubters regarding anti-inhation
moves and foreign affairs again
trimmed accounts. Dividends, on
the whole, were mostly ignored.

Buying Of wheat and feed grains was

Cl0 Union Lays Aside
Plans for Strike al
Atomic Energy Plant
By The A.soeio,sd Prs,.

At the urgent request Of the Gov
ernment a C1O union today laid
aside indefinitely plans for the first
strike In history at an atomic energy
plant.
Local 288 OF the Gas, Coke and
Chemical Workers agreed to con-
tinue work at the huge uranium-
225 plant In Oak Ridge, Tenn, and
|go on negotiating with the Carbide
|& Carbon Chemicals. Corp. for
higher wages and other concessions
sought BY $500 employees.
+ The decision ended the threat of
q walkout at midnight tonight,
when the unions contract expires.
Ching Makes Appeal.
The plant is the largest of three

nifty. It was described as a prof.
ect Of Critical Importance" to the
national welfare in an appeal last
night by Cyrus S. Ching, director
Of the Federal Mediation and Con-
ciliation Service, for the union and
corporation to keep the work going.
Clyde l.. Terry, president Of the
local at Oak Ridge, had told re-
porters the company and union
were "as far apart as the poles'' on
the wage question. The workers
are asking for Is cents an hour
more.
The decision to continue working
was announced by Warren Morgan,
a Washington official of the union,
after Mr.. Ching sent his message to
the union and company requesting
continued negotiations.
Saying Federal conciliators had
advised him of considerable prog
ress" in efforts to reach an agree
ment, Mr.. Ching added
I strongly urge that negotiations
be continued without any inter-
ruption to operations to give me
personally an opportunity to explore
the situation and determine what
further procedures may be worked
out"
Inquiry Is Deferred.
The plant, which is operated for
the Atomic Energy Commission
makes uranium-235 by a gaseous
diffusion process. Uranium 235 is
an isotope, or variant form, OF
uranium and is one of the key
ingredients in making an atomic
bomb.
The threat of a strike had prompt
ed Chairman Hartley Of the House
Labor Committee, to appoint a
three-man subcommittee to deter
mine whether the Taft-Hartley law
would be broad enough to cover the
situation. ~
However, Representative Hoffman,
Republican, of Michigan, who was
named to head the subcommittee,
told a reporter last night the inquiry
would not be conducted as long as
the strike seemed off.
