War-Time Li Washington Plans Debut For Talented Soya Bean
By BETTY MacDONALD Special WASHINGTON, May 7.—Soon to make its debut at American dinner tables is the small, green soya bean, fondly referred to by department of agriculture economists as “that wonder bean.” By October, they announce, we will be using soya bean pancake flour, macaroni, noodles, imitation bologna, cereals and pastry flour

WMC TO CHECK ON EXEMPTIONS
Present Policy to Continue If Too Many Firms Offer
Objections.
WASHINGTON, May 7 (U. P).— The growing manpower shortage and need for increased production may lead war manpower officials to crder a 48-hour minimum work week throughout the nation. The feasibility of such an crder, WMC officials told an informal press conference late yesterday, depends largely on the number of exemptions which might be necessary. If too many exemptions are necessary, the plan would be abandoned and the current policy of applying it to specific areas and industries would be continued. If War Manpower Chief Paul V. McNutt decides to apply it nationwide, there would be a substantial | increase in the national income. | ‘Workers covered by the federal | wage-hour law would be getting time and a half for hours worked bevond 40. To those working only 40 hours now, it would represent a 30 per cent increase in earnings.
Held Not Inflationary
When President Roosevelt issued an executive order in February for a 48-hour week, Economic Stabilization Director James F. Byrnes contended in a radio address that money paid for overtime was not inflationary. Thus far, the order has been applied to only 39 local areas, and to the lumber, non-fer-rous metals mining and steel industries on an industry-wide basis. Disclosure of the study of the broader application of the order came during a discussion of the directive issued by McNutt to the steel industry in which he called for a 48-hour week in that industry by July 1.

WASHINGTON, May 7 (U.

At least five of the committee's 12 Democratic members appeared
PROBE COST OF FOOD TO MINERS
OPA Finds Violations but In Line With Rest Of Nation.

George Speeds Action
Senate Democratic Leader Alben W. Barkley of Kentucky conceded that the house compromise bill was not acceptable to the committee. Committee Chairman Walter PF, George (D. Ga.) said the committee would make every effort to complete action and speed it to final passage by May 15 so that the treasury could start collecting taxes, through withholding at the source, on July 1. The predominant interest in the Carlson-Ruml plan—which provides for complete erasure of 1942 levies contrasted with an approximate 75 per cent forgiveness in the houseapproved bill—was clearly indicated yesterday. As soon as Treasury Counsel Randolph E. Paul had completed testimony in which he opposed the Carlson-Ruml hill as “inequitable and unfair,” committee members began questioning him ahout specific provisions,

THE ALARM WORKED
Women's Legs
WASHINGTON, May 7 (U. P).~— The American woman’s legs, long an inspiration for cheesecake art, today felt the blow of government regulation. There will be plenty of rayon stockings to go around, officials said, but they will be “durable.” And any woman knows that durable stockings don't make cheesecake! The war production board hastily added that although durable they would be the “best possible.” And WPB promised that what the new hosiery lacks in quality may be compensated for by quantity. It will allocate sufficient quantities of rayon to meet all needs. “The new rayon stockings will last jonger than in the past,” a WPB

spokesman said. “But only durable, wearable stockings will be manufactured.” OPA also modified specifications for the new “grade A” hosiery, with the result that a greatly increased quantity will be available. The quality has not been substantially affected by these new regulations,
it said. The new OPA orders provide that all grade A or grade B hosiery can be sold at the price ceilings for grade A footwear until July 15. After that date, all grade B stockings will automatically be lowered 25 per cent in price. The effect, officials said, probably will be eventual elimination of all grade B

A peptic ulcer is a break in the J lining membrane, usually of the stomach or the duodenum, the latter being the first portion of the bowel beyond the stomach. The distress that characterizes this trouble is caused by the irritation of the nerve endings at the base of the ulcer by the acid and y and digestive enzymes secreted by 1 stomach. The pain, therefore, is chemical in origin. This fact explains the behavior of the distress, which is characterized by its onset from one to two hours following meals and by its duration until the next meal, or until food or alkali are taken. The interval of relief between the taking of food and the reappearance of distress is the result of the absorption and neutralization of the gastric secretions by the food. Ultimately, an excess of gastric secretion manages to accumulate and with this excess of acid the pain comes on once again.
