Mr.. Snyder told a group of in

Wage Board Begins Drafting
Formula, Higher Ceiling Likely

Director Alan Valentine has de-
creed that prices be controlled.
The probability is that prices in
selected industries which are be-
lieved to be unreasonably high
will be controlled some time before
general controls are clamped on
the entire economy.
Although in some extreme cases
the prices charged by some manu-
facturers for their products may
be rolled back. officials believe it
would be a practical impossibility
to roll back wages. However, they
think they have the authority
to do so.
Task Is Complicated.
One thing that is complicating
the task of the wage board is the
presence now in the contracts of
at least l million workers of So
called "eScalator" clauses which
permit wages to be raised auto
matically as the cost of living
goes up.
Such contracts are in effect
mostly in the automobile indus
try.

The Wage Sterilization Board
met today to begin drafting
q formula to curb wage in
creases after the Government in
vokes price controls on industry.
Meeting with Chairman Cyrus
8. Ching on the difficult task Of
devising a wage stabilization plan
were the two other public men,
bers of the tri-partite board, along
with the three members Of indus
try and three from labor.
Wage board members recessed
their meeting and called on Pres
ident Truman at 11:15 am. A
spokesman said the visit to the
White House was arranged pri-
marily to give the board members
the chance to meet the President.
Afterward, the board was to re-
sumo its session.
Mr.. Ching held a preliminary
conference yesterday with the two
other public representatives, John
Dunlop, Harvard University eco
nomics professor, and Clark Kerr,
head of the industrial relations
school Of the University of Cali
fornia. They attempted to work
out an agenda for the meeting.
Higher Wage Ceiling Likely.
1t was understood that wages
probably will be pegged somewhat
above the average level prevailing
at the time the Korean war
started last June Is.
The stabilization level was ex-
pected to be about 10 or II per
cent above the level of last June.
That would be in line with recent
wage settlements in big industries
such as automobiles and steel.
If such a formula is adopted,
wages of workers in other indus
tries would be allowed to rise
about 10 per cent above what they
were in June, but no higher. Such
a formula is similar to the So
called Little Steel" formula used
in World War II. Then the sta
bilizers allowed all wages to rise
Is per cent above what they were
on January l, 1941. The formula
was followed by the War Labor
Board all during the last war.
The Defense Production Act,
which gives the Government au-
thority to control prices and sta
bilize wages. states that wages
must be brought into line after
prices have been controlled in a
specific industry.
So whatever formula is worked
out by Mr.. Ching's board would
not be used until Sterilization

Merchants in Glen Cove say the

a few such escalator contracts, but
the provisions of those in exist
ence were suspended by the War
Labor Board.
Most officials believe that the
Ching board will have to take
similar action this time. But they
concede it will be difficult to do
until current price rises have been
largely checked.

His wife and I were walking

in song. Standing on the Memo

"Internationale," the Communist

voice-in Russian! That was my

When finally, in the autumn

I was under orders not to press

Noel that my superior insisted on

blurted out a piece of news that
fairly left me gasping.
