Washington, Dee. 12 (U.RJ You'd better hang on to that thread-bare top-coat for another year. And you'd better try for another season's wear out of that patched-up shirt and that shiny blue serge suit. This advice comes from a top ranking official of the civilian production administration, who figures it will take about a year to overcome the shortage of wearing apparel. This official, who didn't want his name used because he didn't want a lot of folks in industry calling him a defeatist, cited these reasons for the apparel shortage: 1. A critical scarcity of labor in textile mills. 2. Refusal of mills to go on a 48 hour week because of in creased costs involved in over time pay. 1 3. Increased demand for fab rics resulting from development of new uses for textiles. 4. Maladjusted distribution of finished textiles because of in equities In the government's price control system. 5. Refusal of many fabric makers to accept long-term or ders because of future uncertain ty about such matters as wage increases and strikes. As things stack up right now. tiie official thinks, it's going to take about a year to correct the situation, get the distribution pipe-lines filled and the retail shops stocked with enough shirts, shorts, suits and dresses to meet "normal demand." He emphasized "normal de mand" because he estimates that demand right now is better than one and a half-times the pre-war normal. In passing, he remarked that demobilized veterans are buying two or three suits at a time when they can get them. Ellsworth Urges Stump Dynamiting Washington, Dec. 12 (U.R) Rep.
