Strike Settlement Nof Expected Soon: PIMA Has Viewer Declined To Negofia+e''
POOR PROSPECTS FOR EARLY STRIKE SETTLEMENT ACCORDING TO UNION

ACCORDING TO UNION
 In reply to toIephoned ques- ton of C 0 vernon Gruening. Harry Lundcbcrg, ecretary- treasurer of the Sailors Union of the Pacific in San Francisco. said that prospects for carly set tlemcnt of the strike were ex- trem~ly poor 'bccausc hip owners had met only occasion ally with representatives of the Sailors Union, appeared not de sirous of settling differences and refused to accept compromise offer of union as W~u as recon mendatjon of Federal Commis- sioner of Cancellation to place wage demands belorc NSB."
 Gov. Grucnlng asked why this side of the controversy had not appeared in the newspapers and Mir. LundeDcrg said that the newspapers had been gwen it but had not used 1t.
 The Governor then asked that Lundeberg wire his version of the dispute and that the Cover nor would be glad to release 1t nerc (JunGauU to radio stations and the press. The Governor also asked for the release of the Coastal Monarch when had al ready been loaded for several days and was ready to sail north ward. The wire was promised by Lundeberg and read as fol lows.
 Sailors Union of the Pacific opened US agrecmnet with Paci- lie Maritime Association Feb. ~ on tn~ two months D n in z clause. In the two months Feb. 2I-Apr. 28) when our agreement expired, snlp0WnCTS met with our committee only tWIce at re quest uI Federal Cancellation service. We extended our agree neIJ ID days m order to finish negotiations. In that l0 QaVs tnHc SnlFoWnGrs met with ills once. IL was very evident that they didn't intend to settle any tnIng. We finally request Q ked- cTal Mediation service to arrange meeting in order for us 10 find out where we stood inasmuch as we had no agreement.
 This meeting was set on May 26 under auspices of Federal Commissioner Omar Hosklns. In tnIS meeting shIpoWners were adamant m their position in re- fusing to offer anything. Sailors union was agreeable to settling dispute on payment of penalty time for Saturdays at Sea in line with 40 hour week which is already now enjoyed by every IiICtL 4t4IiIC ltIlIOII III lllc COuIlII with exception of the sailors union. ShipoWners refused our compromise.
 Commissioner Hoskins then called in both parties and stated, the Federal Government re quests that both parties agree to put the wage demands into the National Wage Stabilization Board as a wage dispute, and meanwhile ships will be run ming,
 Sailors Union in meeting up and down coast composed of 4,000 men agreed unanimously to accept governments request. Pacific Maritime Association re- fused governments request. By way Alaska Steamship Go. is prominent member of F M A. Since that time Federal Concil- iatiOn rViCe has attempted to get ShipOWnerS to meet with us but so far has been unsuccessful.

NEW YORK, June 28.-Like 9

are determined to break out o1
their shell in the years ahead. Al
long last. apparently, they have
been overwhelmed by the thought
that they live in an age when one
must toot ones own horn or have
ones voice drowned out altogether
After much soul-searching and
travail. the American Institute OF
Architects in convention here de-
cided this week to underwrite a
three-year, 100000 public rela-
tions program designed to create a
better understanding of the pro-
fession.
The country can expect, as a re-
suit, that such hallowed institu-
tions as National Potato Chip

Nature was kind to the builders
of the Berkeley and Fort Sumner
residential developments in West
Washington.
It provided them lavishly with
wooded hills and vistas, with tiny
valleys and inviting stretches of
rolling land-secluded areas such
as one might find miles out in the
Maryland countryside but actu-
ally within Is minutes ride to the
heart of Washington.
Therein lies their chief charm
to the hundreds who have taken
up abode in them during postwar
years. Within the forested areas
building activities seem never to
cease, shifting merely from one
portion to another. For their
accessibility and convenience to
shopping centers and the city
lures others from year to year.

ironically. one of the talking
points of Plan c is that the house,
wife has the groceries delivered to
her under the plan and so does
not have to spend money operating
her car to and from the store,
The plans statesmen compute car
operating costs at 6 cents a mile.
A housewife who lives 3 miles
from the chain store (an extraor-
|dinary distance) would have spent
SO cents on transportation and
would have saved 81 cents on her
groceries. She would still have
been a penny to the good by 60
ing to the store.
Because of instances such as
these. the Better Business Bu-
reaus throughout the Nation are
trying to crack down on the use
OF the word wholesale" It can
be said fatty that no plan in the
District area. and probably none
in the country, is Offering a true
wholesale arrangement without
substantial markups.
Actually Middlemen.
Most of the so-called whole
salers" who supply the food plans
actually are middlemen - hotel
supply houses and the like-who
buy from genuine wholesalers.
Their overheads are lower, there
fore their prices can be lower,
than those of chain stores. But
they are not as much lower as the
food club statesmen would like to
have it believed. And in some
cases-as indicated above-they
are higher.

wholesale prices on given items
of a nationally known brand and
the prices offered by one food
plan here is given below. All
figures are for lots of one dozen

Behind the Food Plans
By WiIIiom Hines

There are about a dozen food
clubs operating in the Washing
ton area.
They offer housewives mil
lionaires' menus on a hamburger
budget" and steaks and vegetables
at wholesale" Tied in with these
promises is the assertion that the
housewife who joins this or
that food club can save enough
money to pay for a home freezer
and then some.
How are the plans doing in
delivering on their attractive
promises?
Not very we'll, according to sur
veys conducted independently of
each other by The Star and the
Washington Better Business Bu-
reau. Compared with the prices
in effect every day of the week
except Sunday in supermarkets
all over town, the food clubs
prices are less than startling.
Some plans actually cost the
housewife more money than she
would have spent at the store for
the same items. Others promise
savings of Is to SO per cent and
actually produce savings of per
cent or less.
Financing Offsets Bargain.
One food plan salesman told a
housewife that, if she joined his
food club-and bought a $3.50
freezer-she would save 80 per
cent on her meat bill. She bought
a four-month supply of beef and
lamb. If she had bought exactly
the same items at regular super
market prices, the meat would
have cost her $2.48 more. She
saved 62 cents a month by buying
through the food plan. And the
carrying charges on her financed
food amounted to more than twice
that sum.
Another housewife bought,
among other things, four pounds
of cube steaks at $1.10 a pound.
The OPS ceiling for cube steaks
in supermarkets on that day was
$1.03.
Buy in quantity and save a lot
of money" was the advice of an
other salesman. A housewife took
his advice and stocked up on
orange Juice concentrate-72 cans
at 16 cents a can. She got an un-
known brand. On that day. she
could have bought all the juice
she wanted, of an established
brand, for 1919 cents a can at
the store. If she had waited a
couple of weeks. she would have
found the Juice on sale at 10
cents-in lots of one can or one
million.
Above Market Prices.
Another food club member took
c0N NdAAUdSC VI q u1O11CysSdVlIlR
deal and bought an eight-pound
pork loin at SO cents a pound. It
was selling down the street that
day for Al cents.
One woman was told that the
initials "NYD" opposite turkeys on
the price list of a food club were
"a code symbol meaning ready for
the oven. The turkey she got
at 81 cents a pound-came to her
New York dressed. which means
feathers missing but head, feet
and entrails intact. She could
have bought a New York dressed
turkey for several cents a pound
less almost anywhere in town.
One food plan tells it's customers
that. because of the steel strike,
the food club offers the only brand
|of freezer available in the Wash
|ington area. This statement, OBJ
|viously designed to stampede
buyers, is untrue. According to a
major appliance dealer here, Il
could sell you carload Of freezers
toaay-any brand you want"
