Cotton Textile Market
Develops Some Volume
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-Followina
many weeks of slow and spotty ac-
tivity, the cotton textile market de-
veloped some business in volume
during the first week of the new
year as many merchants had fore
cast.
Print cloths, sheetings and broad
cloths sold for delivery through the
first quarter of the year. The four
leaf twill also was in demand and
some houses moved this construc-
ton through April Merchants said
buyers needed goods and felt a pro-
longed decline in gray goods prices
had about run its course.
The wool goods market was steady.
A rise in foreign wool prices to rec
ord highs during the week presaged
continued high cost of materials for
mills.
However, there were bright spots
in the picture. The demand for
Women's wear fabrics continued
good. Merchants felt that special
sales of mems suits now in force in
many stores had substantially re-
duced accumulated inventories. The
outlook for the fall line openings of
Woolens and Worsteds in mems wear
appeared better.
The rayon goods market was
quiet. There was a fair demand for
crepes and gabardines. Rayon lin
lngs moved slowly even though
prices were 6 per cent under those
prevailing in the previous quarter.
Some mills curtailed operations as
the supply of goods finally caught
up with demand.

Imprisonment and fines of $4,000
each.
Mr.. Fay said the investigation
leading up to today's action was in
dependent of the New York case
and would not say whether District
authorities were asked by Frank S
Hogan, the district attorney there
to synchronize the Washington and
New York phases Of the affair.
He observed, however, that the
New York case was based on an al
legged conspiracy that had its incep-
ton in New York State last August
after which Shapiro was credited
with playing along" with the de-
PENDANTS for four months while the
investigation progressed.
Climax is Arrest of Four.
Shapiro, 25-year-old law student
from Brooklyn, has been praised
for his courage in reporting the
purpotter fix" attempts and offer
ing himself as bait while investiga-
tors gathered evidence.
The climax came last Wednesday
when Mr.. Hogan announced arrest
Of the four men in New York after
George Washington had defeated
Manhattan College, II to So. Mr.
Hogan said Shapiro told him the
gamblers had urged him to help
throw the game by l8 or l9 points.
Details of Three Counts.
These were the three counts the
grand jury returned against the
trio today before Judge Richmond
B. Keech:
That they offered Shapiro $1,000
on December 5 if he would attempt
to lose the game with North Caro-
lima State the following night.
That on the same date they Of
fered him $4,000 to lose all the
games on the basket ball
schedule
And that on December l9 they
offered Shapiro $1,000 to throw the
game with the University of Vir-
ginia the following night.
The law invoked for the first time
here makes it illegal to pay or offer
to pay any athlete with the in
tention of influencing him to try
to lose a game, or to limit the score
of a game.

Alexandra Hospital
To Sue IA De|inquents
In Change Of Policy

Alexandria Hospital officials
said today they plan to take to
court IA persons who have failed
to pay their hospital bills.
Administrator Van C. Adams said
the critical financial condition" OF
the hospital has forced it to seek
court judgments in a change in
policy, This method of collection
will be used, he said, only after the
hospital has satisfied itself such pa
tients are able to pay their bills.
The administrator of a large
Washington hospital described the
procedure as routine" among hos
pitals here.
90-Day Credit Given.
At his hospital, the administrator
said, the policy is to allow patients
who sign notes for payment up to
80 days to settle their bills. After
that time the bills are turned over
to collection agency. If they still
are not collected after another 80
days, he said, they are turned over
to an attorney.
Mr.. Adams said 80 judgment pro-
ceedings already have been prepared
at Alexandria and So others are
being made ready.
1--WE simply are moving against
those who are able but won't pay
or take unnecessarily long to satisfy
their accounts Mr. Adams said.
Won't Eliminate Deficit.
The usual collection methods will
be continued, Mr. Adams explained
but when these fail the hospital will
seek judgments against the debtors
through the Alexandria Civil and
Police Court. The new policy, how
ever, Mr. Adams said, can never
completely eliminate the deficit
pattern at the hospital.
He said deficits will continue be-
cause funds made available yearly
through the Community Chest for
the disqualification of the medically
INDECENT are inadequate.
The hospital recently was given
a $4,000 emergency grant by the
city pending a study to determine
the need of further funds. The
city action followed a warning by
the hospital Board of Directors that
the institution would be forced to
close unless new sources of income
were forthcoming.

ton of pay raise for himself and
the Vice President, such an increase
appeared likely to be the first majo
legislation of the new Congress.
Bill Seen by January 20.
Republican and Democratic lead
ers alike predicted that such a bill
would be passed and sent to the
Presidents desk before his inaugu-
ration January 20. If it is not passed
by that date, the raise would not
affect the President and Vice Presi-
dent inaugurated on that dav.
General sentiment at the Capitol
is for increases both in taxable pay
and nontaxable expense allowances.
In calling for special fund for
management improvement" the
President explained that the size
and complexity of Government &C
tivities require that continuing at
tention be devoted to managing the
public business in the interest of
economy.
Savings Anticipated.
He asked that the fund be ap-
proprlated to him and pointed out
that his new budget reflects antici-
pated savings which should result
from management improvement &C
tlvitles now under way.
In his budget proposals, Mr. Tru-
man also urged Congress to enact
legislation increasing the rate of
compensation benefits to Govern
ment employees injured on the job
and to dependents of those killed
in line of duty. He included a
tentative estimate of S4,OO0, 900 to
pay for liberalized rates.
THE present rates have not
changed since 1927" the President
declared. They are now quite in
adequate"
Worker Groups Disappointed.
Legislation already has been in
troduced in the House and Senate
to increase the present $116 monthly
payments to a new maximum Of
1925.
Mr.. Truman's failure to indorse
substantial pay raises for all Gov
ernment employees disappointed Fed
eral employe groups. some of whom
had been asking for pay increases of
$3.50 year or more
The Star disclosed last November
II that President Truman would
reject any substantial Government
paw raise.
