4 PACKERS, UNIONS AGREE TENTATIVELY

CHICAGO, Aug. 21 (U. P.)—The big four meat packers—Swift, Arm-

our, Wilson and Cudahy—and three labor unions have reached a tentative agreement today on “virtually all issues” involved in bargaining relations with their ' approximate 50,000 employees, according to Prof. Nathan P. Feinsinger, war labor board panel chairman. “A tentative agreement has been reached on virtually all issues in dispute with the exception of wages, hours and union security,” Prof. Feinsinger announced. “The remaining issues have been submitted to the panel for its formal recommendations which will be issued after consideration of briefs to. be submitted within the next few weeks.” es Prof. Feinsinger, University of Wisconsin law professor, said in the Swift case, the issue of hours had heen settled by agreement. The unions involved were the Packing Workers organizing committee (C. I. 0.), the Amalgamated Butcher Workmen and Meat Cutters of North America (A. F. of F.), and the International Brotherhood of Swift Employees, (Ind.).

‘Meanwhile, President Roosevelt told a press conference he hoped that his studies of a new step to combat inflation would be completed within a week or two. He refused to discuss what it might embrace. Cites Labor Figures

Henderson cited figures released by the bureau of labor statistics whieh showed that prices of uncontrolled foods rose 2.5 per cent between June 15 and July: 15. The same items had recorded a 4.8 per cent advance in the previous month. Such price rises, Henderson said, are “drawing a dangerous pattern.’ “Right here at home,” he said, “there is a battlefront—the antiinflation front—and its communiques take the form of price tags. Every housewife should read these communiques carefully and interpret them in terms of what her

will buy six months hence.” ‘His statement was regarded as & plea for public support in his fight against the congressional farm bloc and farm organizations which succeeded in writing the 110 per cent of parity limitation into the price control law.

Wickard Won Over

Secretary of Agriculture Claude R. Wickard already had been won over to Henderson’s view, at least in part. Wednesday night that the time had come when the 110 per cent pro-

of 100 per cent parity. The labor statistics bureau figures showed ‘that prices of foods under OPA ceilings rose only 0.3 per cent

in the June 15-July 15 period and

had declined 1.0 per cent the previous month. Henderson attributed the 0.3 per cent rise in controlled food prices to three factors—some ceilings were raised to eliminate inequities; be-low-ceiling price sales came to an

violations of the ceilings. Henderson promised, in this connection, that violators would be dealt with “unpleasantly.”

MOTHER OF ‘NOISY’ CHILDREN IS SLAIN

DES MOINES, Ia., Aug. 21 (U. P.) —PFrancis L. Grady, 33, father

of four children, today faced first degree murder charges for the fatal

shooting of a neighbor woman because, he said, her children made too much noise and threw rocks at his children. The neighbor, Mrs. Glen Ballard, 26, died yesterday of bullet wounds in her hip and abdomen. Mr. Grady told detectives that he had been ill with influenza and the yelling of the three Ballard children, Myron, 8; Leroy, 7, and Roger, 5, had shattered his nerves.

By now it was evident that the opposition ashore was very great. The wounded ‘began to be brought aboard. ‘There were a lot of them. Many had been forced to swim.

Few Sailors Escape Wounds

Our destroyer was ‘hit twice by bombs, and the doctors swore softly as the concussion and the shaking of the ship reopened wounds. By 10:30. in the morning, Gen. Roberts ordered the landing force to withdraw. The withdrawal was difficult and costly, but many troops managed to climb into small boats and get out into the bay. - Three hours later our fleet limped out of French waters. Our wounded lay on the decks, in the gangways, in every cabin, and in the wardroom. Few of the crew remained untouched, for we had been under constant fire and bombing now for nearly nine hours.
