Haven't Got Coupons Or Cash, They Say |

By GERALDINE HILL United Prees Stay Cor» nan tent LONDON, Sept. 25 —British girls, {fighting to "keep their skirts short, !stamped cout of dress shops and wrote letters to the newspapers to-! ‘day in a battle against the fashion edicts of New York and Paris. Infuriated British women pointed out they had barely enough ration coupons to purchase one daytime, costume a year. It would take years] to convert their slim wardrobes to conform to the American and Parisian longer skirts. . “We just haven't got the coupons | or the cash,” said Pamela Roberts. | “American women can afford such | luxuries. We cannot. It is erim-| inal stupidity to follow their lead.” Best Selling Point “Why should we make a mystery of our leas, anyway.” demanded an “They're often a {girl's best selling point.” Joan Geddes, who works in the London marriage bureau, said “long skirts hinder matrimony. Englishmen like a bit of leg.” The doctors agreed they were right—for different reasons. “Waspy © waists mean varicose . sald one Harley st. physi“Long skirts aggravate leg! muscles and lead to chronic back-| aches and chronic sciatica.” “Bustles,” said another doctor, “lead to hollow backs.” Bring Home Dollars Stafford Cripps, board of | {trade president, said the whole! fashion revolution was “idiotic.”| The’ board permits designers to make- longer skirts for export that brings home American dollars Considerable space in the press was devoted to letters with the) common cry: “What with shortages in food, ‘houses and- coal, a girl hasn't got| {much left but her looks snd her | A

U, headquarters would result in an agreement that “will protect our mutual interests.” { The I. T. U, however, reiterated the statement of its president, Woodruff Randolph, that the conference would have “no results” if the A. N, P. A. insists that the {union sign scontracts under pro- | {visions of the Taft-Hartley act. | | The conference opened on a note {of unanimity, however. It was] 'based on a suggestion by the A. N. | \P, A. to “meet in a sincere and| honest effort to explore all of the problems.” The suggestion was ac- | cepted by the I. T. U. | “ “No Contract” Big Problem

Chairman George N. Dale of the | special A. N. P. A. standing com[iittee said the conference might last two days. Neither side expected to make any further statement until the session ended.

Mr. Randolph agreed to the meet|ing at the request of the A. N. P. A.| {after a series of statements were! | exchanged by the two groups durling the past few weeks. |

Thelr “problems” centered on, the | “no contract” policy approved recently by the I. T. U. convention. The union decided to by-pass the national labor relations board in future negotiations with employers. It instructed locals not to sign contracts but merely to post con- .| ditions of employment and work on that basis alone. :

The A. N. P. A. publicly supported the Taft-Hartley law in speeches and statements and said the act laid down a pattern for proper procedure in collective bargaining. Mr. Randolph and other spokesmen | charged the A. N. P, A. with a generally hostile” attitude and conspiring to- weaken the I. T. U, Mr. Dale, in a letter to Mr. Randolph, disavowed any “hostility or antagonism” toward the union and asked for the conference. Mr. Randolph agreed but wagped that “if it is the intention of the com.|mjttee to urge the signing of contracts under the present conditions created by the Taft-Hartley law, the results will be nil.” Deny A. N. P. A. Hostile Expected to figure in much of the discussion were the six “declarations” set out by Mr. Dale in his letter to Mr, Randolph. They said the A. N. P. A. was not hostile, that it desired amicable relations with employees, asserted its belief in collective bargaining, and expressed the belief that “all problems ,, . can be settled by machinery agreed upon in a spirit of fair dealing.” Mr, Randolph replied that the declarations were “expressed in gen\eral terms and their exact meaning |can only be determiried after a conference such as you suggest.”
