ll. S-. Lifts Ban g 0n Glothing Frills

WASHINGTON, April 7—<AP)— The United States Government to- day lifted its ban on some of the clothing frills American women have had to go without for three years.

The Civilian Production Admin- istration put its okay on double cuffs, pocket flaps‘ and belts for a number of apparel items.

It also revoked an order which was supposed to prohibit manu- tactu - ,- of‘. so-"calied "shorty" coats‘; lht which recently had been widely violated, the agency said.

CPA- said revocation of the or- der will permit immediate sale of mlch coats-—an official said there were “thousands"— which were

ruled off the market by the agcncy..

In lifting restrictions on frills, C.P.A. said so-called French or double cuffs may be used again on women's dresses, blouses, coats and neckwear. And it's all right to put decorative and pocket flaps on these apparel items as well as on a number of other garments for women and children.

Belts and belt loops will he per- mitted on women's and children's skirts and slacks.

Goal Strike Begins i To Affect ll. S. Steel!

CIJVILAND, April ‘I-(AP A’ major country wide strike ls ginning to have its effect on steel production for the second time this year and curtailment of steel out- put promises to be intensified if the soft coal strike lasts many

ed to ay.

“During the first few days of the coal‘ strike steel production was well sustained, but early cur- tailment in pig iron production as blast furnaces were shut down by lack of coke promised a subse- quent drop in steel output, likely to increase steadily," the trade publication said.

"Whatever the eventual loss in steel production because‘ of fuel shortage, it can be ill afforded as never in peacetime have needs for steel been so heavy. In all major lines of steel, deliveries are be- coming deferred and an increasing number of producers are entirely out of the market, having com- mltted themselves on all tonnage likely to be made this year."

Expect British Loan To Take First Hurdle

The next step is Senate debate, perhaps two weeks hence. All in-

Probably concurrently, the House of Representatives Banking Com- mittee will take up the loan, and later it will pass to l-louse debate.

(A London Government source said Saturday that the British budget for this fiscal year, has been written on the assumption that the loan will go through. Un- der this budget} Britain expects to balance her overseas accounts by the middle of 1947. Earlier this year, Canada quickly approved a loan to Britain of 34.260.000.000.)

The loan is such a top-drawer matter with the administration that leaders from President Tru- man down have urged its adoption.

Opponents question Britain's willingness and abilitv to reps" the loan, and argue that it will be an over-heavy burden on Am- Iican taxpayers bstaddled with a
