making a woman look taller, are

ing to most women. A peplum over

"A asked to practice a little aus
terity of their own as result of
the economic accord at Washing
ton by the American, British and
Canadian (A-B-C) powers.
It's going to be felt at first by
American industrialisss, farmers and
the export trade. But it's going to
seep down to the consumer eventu-
ally.
The United States is going to step
aside a little in world markets to
make room for British export sales.
This deliberate easing of international
competition is designed to help the
British through their current dollar
crisis. s
Deliberate Concessions
It is believed these concessions will
put the British on their economic feet
without any direct cash outlay at this
time. They will, of course, continue to
receive Marshall plan dollars and un-
doubtedly more loans from the World
Bank and the U. S. Export Import
Bank.
Actually, observers point out, this
country is in a position, if it wanted
to be ruthless, to run British traders
off the seas, to undersell' them, to
undermine the pound sterling.
But the aim is political as well as
philanthropic. 1t is part of the cold
war against Russia. It is also, con-
ceivably, good business. Certainly a
British collapse at this time would
not be good business for the United
States or the world.

DIVALRY between this nations

DIVALRY between this nations
IN military services continues
despite attempts at unification.
Two years ago when Congress
folded the Army, Navy and Air
Force into one military establishment,
James v. Forrestal, the nations first
Secretary of Defense, held numerous
conferences trying to iron out service
differences Finally in desperation,
Forrestal banned all public statements
by officers in the feuding services.
But disputes still ragged within the
mammoth marble Pentagon, home Of
the Defense Department They flared
into full-scale Congressional probe
of the B-36 inter-continental bomber.
That inquiry last month exploded the
now famous Worth memo" written
anonymously by Cedric r. Worth,
since suspended as special assistant to
Navy Undersecretary Dan A. Kimball.
'Nibblel to Death
Last weekend while echoes of, that
fasco were still reverberating, Navy
captain jeopardized his 3O-year ca
reer by charging publicly that Navy
offensive strength was being "nibbled
to death" in the Pentagon.
Capt. John G. Crommelin, MEM
Der of the staff under the Joint Chiefs
of Staff, said he was risking his own
personal future in the hope of blow
ing the whole thing wide open and
bringing on another Congressional in
vestigaton.
"If Congress doesn't act" he said,
"I'm going to resign and fight it from
the outside. < --
s Capt. Crommelin is one of five
brothers who went through Annapo-
lis. Two brothers were killed in the
war. A combat veteran, he was ex-
ecutive officer of the carrier Enter
prise and after the war was first
skipper of the new carrier Saipan.
Crommelin charged that land
locked" ideas about national defense
were "emasculating the offensive po-
tential of the Navy"
His View Supported
Later in the week, high Navy brass
flocked to his support. His hackers
included five-star Adm. William F.
(Bull) Halsey, wartime commander of
the famed u. S. Third Fleet against
Japan, and Rear Adm Arthur G.
Doyle, chief of the Naval Air Train
ing Program. Halsey said:
"I feel very strongly that he (Crom-
melin) is attempting to do something
for the good of the country. l feel he
deserves the help and respect of all
naval officers"
At weeks end Capt Crommelin
was still waiting to be called on the
carpet. It appeared that full-scale
Congressional inquiry was virtually
assured.

In 1916, Immediately after the war,
Murray led his steel union in a strike
that resulted in the first round OF
postwar increases. He negotiated
peaceful settlement in 1947 and again
last year when the union was under
contract not to strike. He achieved
general hourly wage increases OF 1874
cents in the first round, Is cents IN
the second, and 10 to Is cents in the
third.
Fact Finders Formula I.
Last week steel workers agreed to
foreRo their demand for fourth
round OF wage increases for pension
and insurance plans. It was formula
suggested by Presidential Fact-Find-
ing Board.
The recommendation call for boost
ing steel industry payrolls about 10
cents an hour to underwrite financial
protection against old age, sickness,
disability and death. The net industry
increase will be about eight cents an
hour, because, the board ruled, exist
ing pension plans are to be taken
into account.
As a part of its report, the. board
indicated the steel union would be
justified in seeking wage boost next
spring if the steel industry fails to
reduce prices by then.
Extend Strike Truce
The union also accepted request
by President Truman to extend the
strike truce to September Is, by which
time it is hoped formal agreement
will have been reached between the
union of $4,000 men and the 81 steel
companies.
Experts in government, business
and unions forsee tight clamp on
wage boosts, along with emphasis on
pension and insurance plans, in pros
pect for the nation.
