For the past several months lo cal laundries have been operat ing without adequate crews due to the fact that wages were in sufficient to attract workers. The increases range from 10 to 25 per cent on base salaries of 1942, Fabrick stated', and to offset this the Office of Price Administration has given the establishments an increase In price schedules. The OPA order was effective as of Sept. 7, and will result in Increased costs to the public ranging from 12 to 15 per cent, Fabrick declared, the rate varying with different establishments.

It is stated that as a result of the accident, Woodson suffer ed permanent loss of 60 per cent of the use of his right arm, the breaking of what is known as the "crazy bone" in his elbow, and cuts, scars and body bruises.

He asks I the special damages of $2097.50 for lost time, and medical and : hospital services. I Attorney George M. Roberts appears as counsel for Woodson, BUS SPEED-UP MEANS I SCHEDULE INCREASES!
