Then, with “the union drive of 1936-37, wages went up and buying power soared. Mer- ohants want that buying power to continue soaring. Meanwhile, President Truman tells friends that labor has no need to fear a cooling-off period if it has a just cause. Such a. cool- off would only help to consolidate opinion behind labor. On the other hand, it would discourage unfair, quickie strikes. Note — Government statisticlans have compiled some interesting fi- gures on the steel strike. They es- timate that the proposed wage in- . crease of 18% cents an hour will cost the steel industry $160,000,000. On the other Hand, the steel in- dustry will receive from the in creased price tentatively granted it by OPA an extra $252,000,000-— more than enough to tak: care of the wage boost. In addition, the in- dustry can come back to the U. S. Treasury and get $149,000,000 in cagry-back taxcs if they chnly break even for vear.

When he was running a separ- ation center, Milliken visited it each day, once sending his person- al aid to St. Louis for X-Ray film to keep the center operating. Last December, he requested permission of higher headquarters to declare all men surplus who would be eli- gible for discharge on January 1, so they could be discharged ahead of time and get home for Christ- mas.

Fre- quently he ends up being ushered in to Genera! Milliken himself. At present, Milliken arranged a schedule so that every man knows approximately when he will be dis- charged up until April 30 ADMIRAL STAGES WEDDING Several weeks ago, the dauzhter of Adm. Royal Ingersoll, Com- mander of the Western Sea Fron- tier, was ‘married at Treasure Is- !land, San Francisco. The bride was | very lovely. Her Army husband was | very handsome. It was a most at- tractive affair. | However, what burned men and junior officers was the fact that Admiral Ingersoll sent his personal plane, a four-engined Douglas with luxurious ‘appoint- ments, all the way to Washington to bring Rear Adm. William N. Thomas, Chief Chaplain of the Navy, to San Francisco to perform the ceremony. Admiral Thomas is a fine chap- lain, rating high with everyone. But there was a pool of 35 chap- lains at the Treasure Island Naval Base at the time, though none of them, apparently, with sufficient rank to perform the Ingersoll nup- tials. up Navy After the wedding, Admiral Thomas took another 3,000-mile flight back across the continent to Washington, using several hun- dred gallons of gas. Meanwhile, during the wedding, 16 Marines were detailed to handle traffic and park cars in front of the chapel What irks Marines is why they must be used on such “essentjal” jobs as parking cars for admirals’ weddings when they would like to get back to civilian life; also, why an admiral can use Government gasoline and a Government plane for his personal affairs, especially iwhen traffic is tight around San PFrancisco and an extra plane would help relieve air congestion. Note—An Army C-45F, No. 44- 87297, piloted by two Air Corps captains, left Washington, D.

Lattered version of President Tru man’s Fact-Finding Bill. The Bill was actually defeated early in the | meeting and the Committee was ready to adjourn when Acting | Chairman Jennings Randolph of | West Virginia pleaded for some ! move to get a full House vote be-| cause of the President’s strong sup- port for the Bill. After several quick votes defeating additions to the Bill and knocking off parts of it—including the 30-day cooling-off | period Representative William Green of Pennsylvania proposed: | “Gentlemen, may I call for a cool- ing-off period for this Committee” | . The Army decided last month on a drastic move to discourage ex- ! cessive use of Berlin taxis for non- | official business.
