E A WPB Eases Rule to Assure

Civilians All-W ool Clothing

WASHINGTON, June 9 (U. P.).—The war production board lifted restrictions on manufacture of 100 per cent. wool products today in announcing that more than twice as much wool is now going into civilian manufacture than was allocated the first three months of 1943. Officials said the orders would remain in effect until Februayy, 1944,

unless unforeseen difficulties arise. Manufacturers may now disregard regulations which required blending of wool with other materials and use their quotas as they see fit, the WPB said. . It is generally believed that the WPB order may forestall clothing rationing for the year and perhaps for the duration. ‘WPB said that virtually all the wool required for maximum production of essential fall and winter clothing is available. Other changes ordered in existing regulations: 1. Release for eivilian use olive drab clips, bags and wool * waste

formerly restricted for military purposes. 2. Permit allocation of additional

{ wool to manufacturers operating at

maximum capacity to meet essential civilian requirements for next winter, and permit manufacturers to carry over unused quotas from one period to the next. 3. Cancel preference ratings for certain uniform fabrics for police, postal employees, industrial plant guards, etc. 4. Removal of restrictions limiting the new wool content in blankets and lounging robes to 65 per

cent.

THE FEUDS ON

Ohio State - Coeds Rattle Reptiles Released in

Sorority House.

COLUMBUS, O., June 9 (U. P). —A& feud appeared to he on again today among sororities on the Ohio State university campus and snakes slithered merrily through one sorority house, upsetting coeds studying for final examinations. Someone tossed a basket of snakes into a Delta Gamma sorority house room last night where the girls and dates were assembled. One girl climbed on a dining room table and refused to budge for 30° minutes as the snakes skimmed along the floors. Another coed got sick, stayed that way. Then some of the sturdier girls began sweeping the snakes into a waste basket held by one of the boys. What the other boys were doing -was not disclosed. The snakes, all of the garter variety and non-poisonous, were from eight to

. alternating cur-

20 inches long. The girls captured 22 snakes, but claimed at least a dozen were still loose in the house. The Delta Gamms said they did not know who threw the snakes, but the report persisted the feuding has begun. : %

The ordinary house current is sufficient to cause genuine ‘trouble. It is either alternating or direct current, both having a force of about

110 volts and an intensity of 10 amperes. Other things ternating current is more | likely to pro- : duce serious in- 3 jury than direct, because §

Tissues Conduct Current When electricity passes through the body, the tissues serve to conduct the current, as in a short circuit. At the points where the current enters and leaves the body, deep, charred burns of the skin and underlying tissues may be found. These burns are indolent and hard to heal.

without delay, one should do so. The chances of resuscitation are greater if artificial respiration by the Schaefer method is started immediately. The victim should be placed on his stomach, one arm extended, and the other flexed at the elbow. The head is placed on the hand of the flexed arm, and the face turned toward the extended arm. The operator .then kneels, and straddles the victim, facing his head. He places his open hands on the victim’s sides at the level of his floating ribs. Then 10 to fourteen times a minute the air should be forced out of the lungs, and the pressure released so that the lungs, refill under atmospheric pressure. This process should be continued until it can be augmented with a pulmotor or iron lung. Inhalation of oxygen or a mixture of carbon dioxide and oxygen should be provided as soon as possible. Following electric shock, the body may become rigid. This experience should not be taken as

‘LANDING LIKELY

Say 1,500,000 Could blish Bridgehead

On French Coast.

LONDON, June 9 (U. P.).—The Daily Mail said today that German military authorities believe the allies would need 1,500,000 troops attack-

ing in waves of 50,000 to open a second front in westernsFrance. The estimate was contained in a dispatch from Stockholm. The Germans were said to estimate that the first wave of 50,000 on the first day would suffer 74 per cent casualties, but could succeed in establishing a bridgehead 100 to 150 yards deep. These forces on the second day might overcome the Germans’ light defenses and, with the second wave try to overrun the heavier defenses 10 to 12 miles inland. The second wave, it was said, must count on 50 per cent casualties. The Germans, meantime, would rush up reinforcements and the main battle would be joined on the third day.

Aviator Rescue Light Developed

BLOOMFIELD, N.J., June 9 (U. P.).—A searchlight no larger than a walnut but which projects a 1500-candlepower beam visible 60 nautical miles has been developed by Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Co. for use in the rescue of aviators forced down at sea. :

Ralph R. Brady, manager of commercial engineering of the Westinghouse lamp division here, said that the beam is the most powerful ever obtained from such a tiny incandescent unit. “The light, developed at the request of the navy, is designed to fit on a band around the head of airplane crew members, is mounted in a waterproof housing, is of six watts and contains a single tungsten filament. They are made to be wired to a small hand-cranked generator included in raft equipment to supply power for a radio which has a

If the contact and ground are good, unconsciousness follows the electric shock, and breathing and heart action apparently stop, with the victim usually taking on a bluish color. Often the spark of life that remains can be fanned back, if artificial respiration is started immediately and eontinued long enough. Act Immediately First, the victim must be freed from contact with the current. This operation must be performed with - care. A dry board, or dry clothing may be used to break the current and protect the rescuer while he pulls the victim away from the source of current. If the current can be shut off

ROLLBACK SEEN IN VEGETABLES

OPA Official Says Need for Cuts Is Urgent; Fear

Wage Demands.

WASHINGTON, June 9 (U. P.).— Richard Gilbert, economic adviser to the office of price administration, told the senate banking committee yesterday that OPA plans to roll back the prices of fresh vegetables under the disputed subsidy plan after butter, meat and coffee are reduced, Gilbert testified at hearings involving possible reconsideration of the committee’s action last Friday in approving a bill extending the life of the commodity credit corporation with an amendment banning use of the corporation's funds to subsidize any price roll-back. Defending the roll-back plan, Gilbert said that unless prices were reduced “we’ll be,confronted with demands for salary raises.” He insisted that if OPA had used subsidies ‘“earlier and more wisely” living costs could have been held down. Opponents of present price control policies, meanwhile, were having their say before the house small business committee. Shirley Hass, general manager of the Ohio Valley Grocery Co., Louisville, Ky. declared that “we can’t get along much further with the long-haired, wall-eyed boys in the OPA.” Plan Is Opposed Attacking the food price rollback, Hass said that “if the aim of the OPA has been to break down the food distribution system of this country, it has already accomplished this end—and with lightning speed.” George C. Thierbach, president of the National Coffee association, San Francisco, charged that a rell-back of coffee prices “will accomplish nothing, except to provide the public with greater taxes and further drain the manpower of the country in order to administer it.” Donald Montgomery, consumers counsel’ of the United Automobile Workers (C. I. 0), told a senate agriculture subcommittee investigating the roll-back program that congressional committees are “criticizing and preventing regulations necessary to effective price control and necessary to keep the distributor margin under control.” He termed the congressional attack on processor subsidies, whereby the roll-back program would be implemented, as merely “vocal exercise.” Jack 8S. Zucker, United Shoe Workers (C. I. O.) also defended the subsidy principle, and added that his union “is convinced that this so-called ‘farm bloc’ is against subsidies because it wants inflation.” In the banking committee hearing Senater Robert A. Taft (R. O.) attacked the subsidy plan as “unsound,” contending that the amount} the individual saves by the price roll-back “isn’t enough to put in your eye.” He charged the failure to hold down living costs was due to “the inefficiency of the OPA and | not to a lack of subsidy.” : Taft said congress should enact a “direct limitation” on the amount of money the reconstruction finance corporation, which is supplying the funds for the subsidy, can put into the plan.
