More often, however, it allowed additional amounts to remove inequalities or to raise substandard wages. In the western copper cases, the board allowed a full $1 a day because of an acute manpower problem. Employer members were represented by informed sources as arguing that the Little Steel formula would permit too great an increase in the inflationary pool now that the picture has shifted from one of restraints on labor demands alone to restraints on employers, many of whom find their cash reserves more ample but their manpower problems tougher.

In addition, the policies will be applied to a vastly greater number of employers find workers than it was prior to Oct. 3. Heretofore, the board has handled only wages, not salaries. It operated only in dispute cases. As a matter of practice, most of its cases were directly connected with the war effort.

Now all these limitations have been removed, except that the treasury will regulate some salaries. Fireworks Plant Burns, Killing 7 rn Women At Work Rochester, N. Nov. 7 Seven women were killed and IO other employes of the Rochester Fireworks company were injured in an explosion Friday afternoon at the company plant in the town of Perinton, Sheriff Albert Skinner said. Authorities said one of the dead women had not been identified.

They listed the others as: Evelyn M. Bigelow, 27 years old; Angelina Mandell, 31; Viola Close, 60; Mary Parsons, 43; Bertha Archambo, 53, all of East Rochester, and Evelyn Ellis, 48, of Fairport. Officials of the fireworks company said the condition of some of the injured was so critical that deaths might result. Army, navy, and FBI officials began an investigation. The explosion was caused when a tray of powder carried by a workman was set down or dropped hard enough to cause a friction spark, investigators said.

The blast, which started a fire, was comparatively light, witnesses said, but the powder-fed flames spread so swiftly through the one-story building that only one or two of the employes at work escaped unharmed. The seven burned to death were trapped in the building, the Sheriff said. Workers had started on the 4 p. rn. shift and one of them, Evelyn Ellis, had just been employed 20 minutes earlier.

The building was the only one used by the plant for the night shift and flames razed it in a few minutes.
