W DFFERENTIL PUT INTD FFEE] Ickes Also Presents Memo- randum to President * on German Steel. By the Associated Press, Secretary Ickes put into effect today | the increased 25 per cent differential | in favor of domestic materials on ! P. W. A. projects and simultaneously drafted a memorandum to President Roosevelt on award of contracts to German concerns on two P. W. A Pprojects. | The new 25 per cent differential, the P. W. A. administrator said, coincided with the Treasury preference for do- | mestic materials, compared with the | earlier 15 per cent P. W. A. differential on steel purchases over $10,000. | Seeks Facts First, | “We had to get our facts first.” re- ’ peated Ickes, who last week said he | would ask the Federal Trade Commis- | sion to determine whether there had | been collusion in the higher American bids for small amounts of steel on an ocean terminal at Morehead City, N. C. and the Triborough Bridge in | New York City. | He did not know the circumstances on the Triborough purchase, he said, | renewing his assertion that there was “prima facie evidence of collusion” in | the identical bids on the Morehead City project 1 Different Freight Rates. !

The slogan is “Give a loaf of bread a dayv”’ and Poole explained what the cost of even a loaf of bread a pint of milk, o a cent a day would mean to each agency.

Dr. William McClellan, campaign chairman, stressed the fact the cam- paign is still in the hands of the workers. He reiterated his confidence that the Chest would ga over the top by tomorrow night. Reports vesterday showed 14,652 ad- ditional gifts for a total of $144.- 934.63. This brings the total to date to 102,862 contributions amounting to $1.212,246.26, or 64.55 per cent of the total goal. This means that with only two more report meetings, that of noon today and the closing meet- ing tomorrow night, the workers must receive contributions amounting to more than one-third of the minimum goal. which would leave nothing for the extra relief situation brought about with the withdrawal of Federal funds. Unit Collects $192,198. Reporting for the Group Solicita- tion Unit yesterday, Chairman Poole announced 4,036 new gifts amounting to $20.375.16. This makes the total of this unit to date, contributions 23863 for a monetary value of $192.- 198.74. or 48.1 per cent of its quota Bernard Wyckoff, chairman of the Metropolitan Unit, reported 959 new gifts for a total of $15.880.47. which brings the unit’s total to date of 7.597 gifts for a monetary value of $131,- 528.03, or 57.19 per cent of iiie quota. Maj. Gen. Merritte W. Ireland, chairman of the Governmental Unit, reported 9.621 new gifts, amounting to $57.471. The Governmental Unit has now reported 70.633 gifts for a total of $496,981, or 73.4 per cent of its quota. Chairman Jennings of the Special Assignment Unit reported 37 new con- tributions for a total of $51,208.
