Hotel Thursday that physically
handicapped persons, when se

"as good or better" records than
other workers from the stand
point of production, "presentee
ism", labor turnover and acci
dent rates.
Sloan urged the employment
officers "to make a diagnosis of
physically-handicapped persons,
and the abilities of such people
as a means of establishing, in
general, the limitations of the
various types of physical dis
abilities. A successful job place
ment can follow only after such
a diagnosis."

NO CEILING CUT
ON LATER AUTOS
Washington, Jan. 11 (U.R)
The Office of Price Administra
tion has decided not to lower
the ceiling prices on 1941 and
1942 cars by 30 per cent at this
time, it was learned today.
OPA has been considering
such a price decrease because
the prices of these cars rose con
siderably during the war be
cause of storage charges.
OPA permitted a one per cent
increase in the ceiling price each
month for 27 months, so that
storage charges alone increased
the price ceiling by 27 per cent.
On the other hand, OPA allowed
only a four per cent reduction
every six months on ceiling
prices to cover depreciation.
Closing time for Sunday Too Late
to Classify 4:00 Saturday afternoon
