The Labor Department said its old and new style thermome ters for measuring living costs both rose to a point near the record high.of last January. This occurred under pressure of "sharp increases" in fresh fruit and vegetable prices, the depart ment said. Fails To Compensate But the rise failed to com pensate entirely for a drop in the cost-of-living index between January and February. The UAW agreement calls for quar terly pay adjustments. Despite the one-cent loss in their "escalator" pay scale, the auto workers actually will suf fer no pay cut because their annual four-cents-an-hour pro ductivity wage hikes are que within the next few weeks. OWN TRUCK RUNS OVER HIM Houston, Tex. U.R) Danny Garcia Luera, 17, swerved to miss another car and wound up being run over by his own truck. The truck went out of control slammed into a telephone pole and tossed Luera out. The force of the crash turned the truck around and it came back and stopped over Luera, who was knocked unconscious. Portuguese dorymen taking cod off the Grand Banks or in Greenland waters work some 20 hours a day. A minimum of four hours sleep every 24 hours is the legal requirement. Fatter Pay Envelopes Due for Railroaders In Strike Settlement Washington (U.R) Rail road engineers, conductors and firemen will find fatter pay envelopes under terms of an agreement which has been sign ed by the carriers and three rail unions. Following signing of the agree ment, a White House spokesman said Thursday that President Truman will move swiftly to return the government seized railroads to their owners. Settlement Terms The settlement terms, which are still to be translated into the precise legal language of collec tive bargaining contracts, pro vide tor retroactive wage in creases which will bring imme diate lump sum payments of from $600 to $1,100 to 150,000 engineers, conductors and fire men. These payments will cost the railroads about $100,000,000. Yard workers, who now av erage $1.59 an hour, will get an increase of about 24 V4 cents an hour. Train crews will get 17 V4 cents an hour more than their present average $1.95. Working Rules Changed The agreement, which runs until October, 1953, also makes several changes In the compli cated working rules of the rail road industry. One change, which union leaders hailed as a "major improvement," allows union officials to veto demands by railroads to lengthen the "di vision" or sections of a railroad system which now constitute a day s run for train crews. The settlement was proposed by Presidential Assistant John n. Steelman's White House of fice. Contracts Being Written Union and carrier negotiators scheduled close-door sessions to begin writing the detailed con tracts. A union spokesman said the process would require "at least several days." . The White House spokesman said Mr. Truman would issue an executive order returning the roads to private management as soon as the formal contracts are signed. FIREMEN RESCUE ROBIN Gary, Ind. (U.R) Firemen often rescue stranded cats from trees but Gary firemen got a similar distress call from a robin. One of the bird's legs got wedged in the fork of a tree. The bird's cries attracted nearby residents who called the fire department. Fireman Thomas McMahon went up a ladder and freed the bird, which then flew away with a waiting mate. The Army's 12,000 Wacs are stationed in Japan, Germany, Austria, France, Italy and in the Caribbean area as well as at Army installations in this country. LASSOES RUNAWAY PIO Jackson, Miss. (U.R) Jack Bolin, 16, had often dreamed of being a cowboy but he never thought he would rope a run away pig from a motor scooter. He did so when a porker bought by the Bachelor's Club for its an nual barbecue escaped and ran wild through a residential neigh borhood here. ri .j "3?!!igf CALCULATORS SMCHINf Of Vy WS AMtUCAM MnMfSjj FtMm m sHmiiiiKm.
