Attlet Slashes Budget
For British Spending
(Continued From Page One)
eightpenee (about 10 cents) goes
to the medical service. Other
taxes pay for the remainder of
the program.
The prime minister also lopped
millions from government ad
ministration expenes and capital
exienses for new buildings, hos
pitals, schools and public works.
This economy program is the
government's first announcement
of policy since it devalued the
pound. Commons will debate the
program Wednesday and Thurs
day. Alt lee said Britain's purchases
of goods from dollar areas would
be limited ta $1,200,000,000 a year.
Prices of some foods will rise,
Attlee told the House. The primt
minister's program Is tied In with
Britain's recent devaluation of the
pound from $4.03 to $2.80. Britain
is faced with the necessity of
spurring her export drive to earn
dollars, and thus, heavy reduc
tions in her dollar purchases
from the United Slates have
been forecast.
"The government has made It
clear that any advantages to he
reaped from the devaluation of
the pound sterling might easily be
offset by an Inflationary ten
dency," Attlee said.
"To counter this risk of Infla
tion, and that arising from ex
cessive demand on the home mar
ket, we must reduce expenditure
and Increase production.

the 176-day walkout of stevedores
at five of six Hawaiian ports.
The Missouri Pacific expected
to have some trains running by
late today and the Hawaiian
dock workers were ordered back
to their jobs tomorrow and
Wednesday.
Negotiators did not disclose the
terms which ended the Missouri
Pacific strike but it was an
nounced that agreement was
reached on 1S9 union claims
against (he railroad with the
other 93 to be submitted to ar
bitiatlon. The dispute involved
grievances only.
The strike of 5.000 members
of the Brotherhoods of Locomo
tive Engineers, Englnemen and
Firemen, Railroad Trainmen and
Order of Railway Conductors
forced the railroad to abandon
nperatolns and lay off about 20,
00 other employes.
But these settlements scarcely
dented the nation's total of near
ly 4,000,000 Idle workers which
Secretary of Commerce Sawyer
says might climb to 5.000.000 by
Dec. 1 unless the steel and coal
strikes are settled meanwhile.

pensiation. Pennsylvania, wnh
.tlO.lKKP Idle from tne steel anil
coal strikes, was the hardest hit
state.
Stale labor department and un
employment compensation claims
Indicaied the nation's total idle
at 3.815,000. Of these, 500,000 arc
striking sti-el workers, 380.000
striking miners, 16,000 striking
aluminum workers, and 2.922,000
others. Including those laid olf
or involved In widespread smaller
strikes.
The Townsend company at
Brighton, Pa., became the 17th
steel fabricating concern to ac
cede to the CIO United Steel
Workers' demands for free pen
sions. It was the only one of
the 17 plants struck. The agree
ment, announced Saturday, brings
a tolal of 4,100 mon In the 17
plants under the company II
