Usually the half-shift is from 4 to 8 p. m. or 8 to midnight.

Most of them are on the assembly line where not much training is | needed. . Granted, it is not too easy on the employer. It means doubling of employment prpblems and production scheduling, keeping double records- on payrolls, workmen's compensation and jocial security. But if the labor shcirtage gets worse, as Paul McNutt [keeps saying, more concerns may come to use the halfshift. Several times I've inquired around town to find if any of the local war plants werp going to use any half-shift workers, but the usual response is that} they would rather take women fist.

KAISER STEEL MILL OPENED
Built in Only: 8 Months; ‘Project Is First on
Pacific Coast. FONTANA, Cal, Dec. 30 (U. P.).
steel mill starts production today, Just eight months after ground was broken for the huge Henry J. Kaiser project. - A 1200-ton blast furnace will be blown in by Mrs. Kaiser, wife of the miracle builder, and within 36 hours the first of 432,000 tons of pig iron expected the first year will be drawn off. Full capacity as been set at 675,000 tons of ingot production yearly, with ‘a rolling mill to-handle 300,000 tons of ship plates, enough for 120 full-sized cargo ships, of which Kaiser is the nation's biggest builder. Thus. nine months from the time the Reconstruciion Finance Corp. authorized an $83,000,000 loan for its construction, the first integrated steel mill west of the Rocky mountains began turning out the vital material, all from local sources. | Such a construction job normally requires three years. .
Supplies Nearby
Coal for coke, aiready being turned out, comes from the Sunnyside mine, near Price, Utal, under lease to Kaiser. Iron ore comes from mines within 300 miles of the mill. ‘The first ore came from Vulcan mine, in the same county. Geologists said enough ore was available in. the area to keep the mill going 200 years. Limestone was ‘quarried less than 25 miles away. Dolomite, a flux. came from nearby Lucerne valley, and manganese and other metals needed for alloys for later production were within easy hauling distance. Kaiser emphasized’ the plant and mill were not strictly “war babies.” Demands of the Pacific coast for steel after the war will keep the project in ‘practically full operation, a Kaiser representative said. ’
WHEAT TRADE RUNS AT LARGE VOLUME
"CHICAGO, Dec. 30 (U. P.) —Lifting of the flour ceiling caused large volume trading in wheat futures at prices a fraction below and above the previous level on the Board of Trade today. Other grains declined. In early dealings wheat was off % to up % cent a bushel, corn off 1% to %, oats off %, rye off % to %, and soybeans inactive. -In the May options wheat was unchanged to up % cent a bushel from the previous $1.373% @1.37%; corn off 2 to % from yesterday's 95% @95%:, oats off % from 55, and rye off % to % from 77% @178.

member of the senate finance committee, said speedy action is so imperative that the matter would be acted upon independently, without waiting for: general tax legislation which may not reach congress until
*| next spring.
Important Problem
“This is going to prove such an important problem that something is going to be done,” La’ Follette said. “And, support for some such plan will grow as the ides of March draw near.” Behind the growing sentiment for such legislation, according to congressmen, are these features: 1. The new tax schedules enacted by the 77th congress extend to the lowest income brackets and ime pose the heaviest burden in history, bringing in thousands who have heretofore paid only small amounts or no federal income taxes at all. 2. With rising living costs, war bond purchases and other new taxes, individuals have not had opportunity to save in anticipation of the. payments due March 15. 3. Unless there is some measure of relief the treasury may be confronted March 15 with unprecedented defaults. 4. Government revenue to finance the war would be helped by applying the new tax rates to the generally higher 1943 incomes. '
