A New England textile wage decision signals possible peak of a 15 year rise as CIO and AFL unions face arbiter rulings denying 10 cent hikes. Analysts warn higher pay may stall as demand weakens and cost of living shifts. Industry observers expect limited general wage growth beyond textiles, with broader effects on labor bargaining in 1949.

Food and dessert ideas and a Roman skin balm note
Small squares of fish fillets may be dipped in the same covering batter you would use for fried chicken and cooked in deep fat. Coarsely crushed peanut brittle may be added to brown Betty or folded into vanilla pudding or tapioca cream. In making drop cookies do not chill the dough. Drop at once onto the baking sheet as soon as mixed. A form of lanolin was used in Nero's day as a healing balm for inflamed and injured skin tissue.
