A wage for laundry workers
was authorized by the War La
bor Board effective Au?. 15
Glenn Fabrick, spokesman for
Medford laundries, stated today.
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.
Local laundries, have been
paying the increased wages since
the effective date and placed the
OPA order Into operation on
sales Sept. 10, he said.
Inadequate laundry crews
resulted in less service to cus
tomers but this is gradually re
medied as additional workers
are employed, it was stated.

Lifting of the 35-mile speed i
