The best expert guess now is that
we will reach this plan for stabiliza-

go wrong and delay it. Things may

Very little trouble Is expected from
the smaller industries. No attention Is
being paid to them. None will be until
the big codes are put into operation.
Then they will be handled in a routine
way Their codes will follow the out
lines now being agreed on for the major
industries.
Production May Slacken.
There is one small loophole in the
scheme. It will not bring direct results
In increased purchasing power for six
weeks or more. BY that time our in
