HOUSTON, Tex, June 27 (U. P.).~The legal right of the American male to whistle while he works was soundly established today, but with a proviso he stick to the tune. In other words,-he'll have to fight that impulse to trail off into a low, drawn-out “wolf” Whistle when a pretty girl shows

up. . The art of whistling got its test in court when Thomas B. Slaugh~ ter, owner of a Houston cleaning establishment, asked a district court injunction against male workers of the neighboring American Gear Co. Mr. Slaughter said the gear men, many of them ex-service men, indulged in wolf calls and whistles which annoyed his wife, his girl employees and even drove away business. District Judge Roy Campbell refused to issue an injunction banning all whistling at the gear plant. But he extracted a promise from a vice president the wolf whistling will cease.

“WARN: AGAINST NEW SHORTAGES

OPA Officials See More Goods Being Withheld.

WASHINGTON, June 27 (U, P). —OPA and stabilization officials predicted today that if present price legislation becomes law thousands of items ranging f bobby pins to automobiles be withheld from markets until new price scales can be worked out. “It is likely that we may witness the same kind of withholding of other commodities like we have seen on meat,” a spokesman for the office of economic stabilization said. “It seems clear that under the Taft amendment almost any industry could get some kind of a price inOPA officials said that Jf the senate passes the bill and the President signs it, the price agency will be faced with the gigantic task of figuring new and higher prices for thousands of products, Until the job is completed, they said few or no products would reach the public. Would Only Have Months

The Taft amendment would require OPA to allow manufacturers their Oct. 1-15, 1941, price plus rises in production costs since then. It gives OPA only a month to compute the price adjustments. OPA does not believe it can accomplish the job in time. to prevent withholding of consumer goods. OPA officials have abandoned the idea of allowing sales under “open billing” as they believe such a move would throw industrial accounts into chaos. The plan, which was permitted by OPA pending announcement of new coal prices, would authorize sales with the understanding that the buyer would pay whatever prices eventually is fixed by OPA. Meanwhile, the American veterans committee said it was sounding out consumer, labor, farm and veterans groups on a possible buying strike. ABC suggests that buying be halted for a week or so on several commodities that are in good supply but are high priced. The group poiffts out that such action would be “very effective” on many items, particularly perishables. President Philip Murray of the C. I. O. also, urged President Tru-

08| man to veto the OPA bill in its

present form. The union head in a letter suggested that President

During the peak of operations last January and Februdiry, Mr. Shaw sald the employment security division was processing some 130,000 claims per week.

Hoosiers began swamping the division’s 24 local offices with petitions for compensation, v The average weekly load during the first half of 1945 was about 4000. It increased to 10,800 in June, 1945, and kept climbing to the 1946 peak. For the first time, veterans’ claims for federally-financed readjustment allowances exceeded state unemployment compensation claims in March, Mr, Shaw said. More than 3000 self-employed Hoosier veterans drew monthly benefits to supplement their incomes during May and Mr. Shaw expected ‘the June figure to auproach 6000.

In Press Hearin

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, June 27 (U, P).—«BEditor Nelson P. Poynter today- is expected to complete his testimony in the national labor relations board hearing in defense of the printing plant organized by St. Petersburg’s two dally newspapers in deflance of striking union printers. The NLRB is hearing charges by the local International Typographical union that the St. Petersburg Times and the Evening Independent violated the Wagner labor act by practicing unfair labor methods. Interrogation of Mr. Poynter by Defense Cousel Thurman Arnold consumed most of yesterday's session. Mr. Poynter told how he attempted to write the working conditions of News Printing, Inc., the jointly-operated plant, around Florida's anti-closed shop amendment, He wanted to offer employment conditions to the union which would conform with the law but give them a virtual closed shop, he said, Mr. Poynter has consistently opposed the Florida amendment in his newspaper. However, the typographers, on strike since Nov. 20, last year, rejected the proposal when presented to them Jan. 12. The two newspapers had published without halt up to that time with photo engravings. The printers claimed the terms

Mr. Poynter testified that he had rejected a proposal by NLRB regional attorney Paul S.

6th German Rocket Primed For 100-Mile Flight.

WHITE 8S AN DS PROVING GROUNDS, N, M,, June'27 (U. P). —The army Ordnance department tries for a new altitude record today with the launching of the sixth German V-2 rocket, primed for a 100-mile thrust into space, The warhead of the 46-foot giant missile was crammed with scien tific instruments including a spectograph to make pictures of the solar spectrum from above the earth's air layer. Carrying a full fuel supply of liquid oxygen and alcohol, the rocket contains a radio which will signal valuable scientific ' information during the 3500-mile-per-hour flight. The many recording instruments in the 14-ton rocket will be tossed out by an explosive charge after it plunges back to earth. Ordnance experts revealed that the United States has gained rocket knowledge equal to that possessed by the Germans after 15 years of rocket research culminating in the deadly and highly destructive V-2. This test will attempt to surpass the previous record of 71 miles, Top-ranking American scientists were interested in the test because of the information from the fonosphere which was to be gathered and recorded by cosmic ray, temperature and pressure instruments. Scientists predicted that the knowledge gained from the unknown outer limits above the earth would speed the realisation of “undreamed of” military and industrial achievements. « High ranking army, navy and marine officers were on hand today to witness the take-off of the roaring German rocket on its peacetime mission.
