Moot Question Is Causing Government Circles Many Headaches WASHINGTON, April 18.—If it ives women’s skirts an inch, pon- lers the government, will they take a foot? And, if so, will it bring on de- pression? | This is the momentous issue now before the Civilian Production Ad- ministration, which decides such things as how many buttonholes and pockets a female gets these days. Women’s skirts, normally as skit- tish as a stock market, have beei hanging around the same length for four years, all on account of a aictum known in government cir- cles as L-85. L-85 says, for instance, that the dress of a size 16 Miss shall mea- sure 43' inches from back of the neck to hemline. OPA got its postwar problem when it called in advisers recently to give L-85 a once-over. Every- body was satisfied but the women'’s dress committee. If the order must stay, said the committee, at least give every Am- erican woman a one-inch margin on her skirt. With the one-inch issue squarely before them, OPA’s experts (male) in the women's dress division are grappling with these questions: (1) Will one inch lead to an- other? (2) If 53,000,000 American wo- men take an inch apiece, how many miles of cloth will they use? (3) Is it true what they say skirts—that when they're up, we're prosperous; when they're down, so is the ceuntry.
