MALES EYE
WHISPERS AS
NEW FASHION

CHICAGO - (ANP) - What
with the prices on haircuts and
shaves upped as much as Is cents
effective as of Monday, the new
fashion trend in Chicago may be-
like that in New York, long hair
and whiskers, or maybe soup
bowl cuts.
But the prices in Chicago out
strip those in New York - and
the latter place is hollering! Well,
it has a right to, because If things
continue as they are, New York
will be up with Chicago.
Last week, 500 members of Lo-
cal 548, Journeymen BARRIERS In
ternational Union of America, Chi
cago, approved the Master Bar
bers' association (shop owners),
also Chicago, increase in prices on
haircutS and ShaveS. The trims
once were $1.25 on weekdays and
$1.35 on Sundays and days before
holidays. Now it's $1.35 and $3.50,
respectively. Shaves went up from
rs cents to IS cents.
Union shop owners and BARRIERS
will have to 60 along in Chicago
with the new rates, although some
owners have expressed disapprov-
al of the increase - because OF
some unemployment and the fall
ing off of business.
In Chicago, union BARRIERS get
IS percent of the cost of shave,
haircut, shampoo, massage, etc.,
and the owner takes 35 percent.
For apprentice and itinerant bar
bers, the percentage is 60 to the
owners 40.
Another objection to the in
crease in prices is that there are
scores of shops and BARRIERS not
union members that charge as
little as 35 to so cents for q hair
cut - a definite blow to business
of the high-class establishments.
Wonder where those shops are?
In New York (they should hol-
ler), the new price is go cents for
a shave. Ho hum, get out the soup
bowl and scissors, MON, and beat
my rug around the edges. Got to
look pretty for the girls.

that Young Wingzte should mott
have been released on bail a
month ago in that his environment
as the son af al wealthy father
should have served him better
than let the family car serve, as

He declared: '"These parents,
should have left them in Jail to

Young Wingate andI two other
men, Wellington Conway and
Thomas CheeveS, along with a
man who is a fugitive, held up a

he was confused. The Judge de-

high, which has strengthened the

When the old contract ran out
last July l, Mr.. Lewis cut the
work week to three days. Then in
September he called a full
f1edged strike. After So days he
ordered the miners back on the
three day week.
The UNIV claims that operators
producing about $4,000, 900 tons of
soft coal a year have signed its
new contract. The agreement gives
the miners a wage boost of 95
cents a day and provides a 15-cent
increase in the 20-cent-per-ton
welfare and retirement fund. AS
the operators agree to the new
terms, the union automatically al
lows their mines to be worked the
full f1ve-day week. Yesterday
those operators were requested by
Mr.. Lewis to work their mines six
days this week because of the coal
shortage.
Rumblings from the Western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia
soft coal fields today indicated at
least some Of the $4,000 miners
idle this week in an unexplained
strike might stay out next week.
Workers at the Isabella mine of
the Weirton Steel Co.. near
Uniontown, Pa, voted to remain
away from work until a contract
is signed. The pit employees $50.
Sentiment in favor Of taking the
same stand was voiced by 300
UNIV local officials who met in
Grant Town, w. Va.
There still was a chance that
the National Labor Relations
Board might try to end the short
ened work week without White
House action.
Major operators have joined In
an unfair labor practice complaint
against Mr.. Lewis and the UNIV
and have asked the NLRB to get
a court Injunction. They say the
short week is planned to coerce
them into signing an Illegal con-
tract.
NLRB General Counsel Robert
N. Denham is not expected to
reach decision on the operators

on the tracks near wellington
avenue and. Diversey boulevard,
about four miles from the North
Western terminal.
The Valley 400, bound from
Green Bay, Wis, with more than
100 passengers, was the first to
strike the pile of switch bars,
angle irons, tie plates and pieces
of rail. Some Of the steel ripped
open air reservoirs under the
diesel locomotives. automatically
applying emergency air brakes.
Twenty pairs of wheels were flat
tened as the train ground to a
stop.
The Twin Cities 400, carrying
about 800 passengers and travel
ing o nthe center of three tracks
on the right-of-way, struck a
similar pile of steel near Diversey
boulevard Is minutes later. The
train was running close behind

Midwest Flood Danger
Increased by Steady
Rains Over Area
BY the kssoeiotsd Press

Flood dangers appeared mount
ing today in many Midwest river
areas as more rain splashed over
a wide belt and threatened fur
ther damage.
Weather Bureau officials said no
break appeared in the warm,
moist Gulf air which is causing
the steady rains or drizzle over
the lower Mississippi and Ten
nessee Valleys. They said there
was possibility of heavier rains
over the flood areas during the
day. Forecasters said thunder
storms in Arkansas were moving
northward.
The rain belt covered most of
the Ohio and Middle Mississippi
Valleys today and extended into
Oklahoma and Kansas. There
were locally heavy rains in Ken
lucky and the extreme southern
parts of Illinois and Indiana.
Evansville, Ind, had 1.41 inches

rain was in prospect.

rain forecast in the Ohio Valley
all interests should keep alert to
the possibility that additional
rainfall may become heavy

the Ohio River in the Cincinnati
district will fall slowly in the

in the lower portion during the

Policy on Deferment Is Expected in Few Days

Military officials hope to have q
definite policy on deferments with
in a few days, before the first
members Of Reserve and National
Guard units must report to active
duty.
The broad program, Immediately
affecting reservists called to duty
involuntarily, is being drawn ur
by the Defense Departments Per-
sonnel Policy Board.
One official said few defer
ments should be expected, since
membership in Reserve and Guard
units assumes availability.
Interim programs are in force
officials said. to handle requests
for deferment on grounds of "ex-
treme hardship" and jobs con-
sidered to be very essential to
community or national welfare
These requests will be handled
separately by the Army. Navy and
Air Force.
Decision Withheld.
The Army. meanwhile. is with
holding decision on calling doctors
to active duty involuntarily de-
spite discouraging responses to a
recruiting appeal.
In reply to 5000 letters sent
recently to doctors who hold Army
Reserve commissions as lieuten-
ants and captains, only 200 re-
piled and only Is accepted, Army
officials reported.
A spokesman told reporters at
the Pentagon yesterday that the
Army has a "very realistic" need
at this time for 354 more doctors.
The need, he added. undoubtedly
will go up as the Army is
expanded"
The Army also is studying the
legal aspects of whether any Of
the several thousand doctors who
got part or all Of their medical
training at Government expense
can be called to active duty in
voluntarily. the spokesman said.
Many of them, he explained, have
served for short periods or not at
all.
A spokesman said the Navy
needs 400 doctors Immediately, but
an Air Force official said there are
no immediate needs for doctors in
air units. Neither the Navy nor
Air Force has made involuntary
doctor calls, except in cases where
doctors are members Of units
ordered to active duty.
Meanwhile, DR.. Richard L. Neil
ing, Defense Department medical
chief, said machinery has been
set up for medical school grad
yates who belong to other reserve
units.
Those interested, he said, should
