...been accompanied by regular wage hikes (see chart). Such unions as Walter Reuther's United Auto Workers and James B. Carey's International Union of Electrical Workers now argue that earnings should rise at the same rate as productivity. But productivity jumps, insists management, not only reflect increased output per worker but increased capital investment and automation. Productivity also has an effect on prices and inflation. An increase in output per man-hour not only makes more goods available; it makes possible either lower prices or higher profits-or some of both...

Result: women have more money of their own to spend, and fashionmakers' fall lines reflect this. To provide for the growing mass market, the garment trade hopes to concentrate on fewer styles, and counts on mass production to hold prices down. There will be more of the basic models-nubby coats, colorful wool knits and fur-trimmed garments. Dresses are being made with jackets...
