The council recom mended that each of its members sub scribe ten per cent of his income through the payroll allotment plan or any other plan in force for the pur chase of war savings bonds. Total purchases by 32 labor groups affiliated with the council since De cember 7 were $12,189,857. Pulp is used to make lightweight "jump suits" for parachute troops. CO At FROM THE, Anderson- Shaffer COMPANY DELIVERED BY Union Drivers GIVE US A TRIAL You Will Be Satisfied! Phones 47 and 160 TWO MILLION IN WAGE RAISE FOR CAR OPERATORS Detroit, Mich. (ILNS) —Employes of Detroit's municipally-owned trac tion system are rejoicing over wage adjustments, awarded by an arbitra tion board, which are said to make car and bus operators here the world's highest paid mass transportation workers. Under the award, bus drivers get a 20 per cent pay increase and motor men and conductors on street cars get 15 per cent. The increase will add al most $2,000,000 annually to the in comes of the 4,500 employes. The pay boosts are retroactive to April 1, amounting to between $135 and $160 back pay per employe. Street car motormen and conductors will receive $1 an hour after a year's service and bus operators $1.10 per hour. The overtime rate, as set by the award, is doubled. Operators in structing students are to be paid $1 a day extra. Formerly they received 50 cents a day. The wage increases came a year after an arbitration award which in creased the annual earnings of the men about $1,000,000 through an hourly pay raise of 6 cents. What fyouliiuf, WUU WAR MINDS Ships of the Destroyer type com prise the bulk of our fighting ships in the American Navy. Their aver age displacement is about 1800 tons, and they are fast, po'werful, and hard hitting. They have been par ticularly effective in convoy duty and gave a good account of themselves in the Coral Sea engagement. They cost approximately $3,800,000 each. Every N .ivv shipyard is turning out Destroyers in record time. They are essential for our two-ocean Navy. Purchase of more and more War Bonds will assure all-out pro duction of these vital units for the Navy. Buy every pay day. If ev erybody invests at least ten perce# of his income in War Bonds we con do the job. (j. s.
