Chart Tells About
Choice OF Oil

Anti-freee and lighter weight
oil in the cranck-case are two
"musts" for car owners now.
Your gas station has a chart tell
ing what kind of oil is best for
your car for winter weather.
While anti-freeze will be more
plentiful this winter, supply is
still spotty, and prices for the
preferred methanol and glycol
anti-freezes vary as much as soc
or more a gallon. You'd be wise
to buy before the first really bad
weather hits, and keep the stuff
in your garage for use then. If
you're using Prestone, when the
gas station attendant checks the
radiator mix, be sure he's using
the hydrometer with the new
1948-9 reading; the contents
have been changed and you can
be fooled into a false sense OF
security. And don't forget to
check the radiator and all hose
connections for leaks before
pouring in that expensive anti
freeze.

Ne,o Soap Is
Practicable

For laundry use, the new
liquid soap substitutes, like
Glim, work better than the pow
dered synthetics. In hard water,
any of the synthetic detergents
removes CRIME from clothes bet
ter than the old-style soap. In
soft water, liquid detergents
worked best, then soap, then the
powdered detergents. Agricul-
ture Department found this after
making tests on white cotton
fabric soiled with an oil-grease-
dirt mixture. The liquid deter
gents technically called mon
ionic') are not as plentiful, but
worth buying for greasy clean
ing, as are the synthetic pow
ders. Try shopping around for
powders-new ones are coming
on the market with improved
formulas.

GM-UAW Wage
Rates Unaffected

DETROIT, Mich. = General
Motors announced that, under
its current wage adjustment
formula, the drop in the cost of
living during the last quarter
was not sufficient to require any
change in the cost-of-living al
lowance to be paid its approx
mately $4,000 hourly rated and
salaried employees during the
months of December, January,
and February.
GMs current wage adjustment
formula provides that wages and
salaries in GIN be adjusted quar-
terly in line with the increase
or decrease in the Consumer
Price Index of the u. S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics. The BIS
Index for October Is, was 1885
as compared with the BIS In
dex of 1897 for July Is, the
date on which GIN based its last
cost-of- living adjustment.
Thus, both salaried and hourly
rated employees will continue
to receive the same cost-of-liv-
ing allowance during the next
3 months December, January
and February that they receiv-
ed during the previous 3-month
period (September, October, and
November).
For approximately 10000
hourly rated employees, this
cost-of- living allowance will
continue to be 8 cents per hour.
Eligible salaried employees
receive their cost-of-living adj
justment in a lump sum at the
end of each 3-month period.
Therefore, approximately $4,000
salaried employees will receive
$40 in March representing their
cost-of- living allowance for the
months of December, January,
and February. In December,
