Auto


Despite the advent Of bigger,
better and more comfortable
cars, Mr.. Average American
Motorist found himself stalled
on the road and IN need of
emergency help more than once
last year-in fact. 1.3 times,
Statistically speaking, according
to its annual compilation of
breakdowns and their causes is
sued by the American Automo-
bile Association today.
The AAA report covering 1910
showed that 27,300,000 passenger
cars registered in the United
States marked up a record of
35.000,000 times when the ga
rageman had to come to the
rescue TO get them going under
their own power-or 13 per cent
more than for the previous year.
The figures. il was pointed
out. are based on calls for aid
handled by AAA "trouble-shoot-
ers" working through $4,000 ga
RACES throughout the United
States that are under contract
to serve the members of the
association.

Many Profits Cut

The truth is that many lead
ing employment-giving enter
prises. Notwithstanding enor-
nous increase in production, had
less profit left at the end of the
first quarter of this year than
a year ago, due to rising labor
and material costs and, more
especially, to staggering tax
leVies.
Among them: General Motors.
Bethlehem Steel, General Elec-
trio. Chrysler, Du Pont. Allis-
Chalmers, A merican Steel
Foundries. Electric Auto-Lite,
Hercules Powder. International
Business Machines, Glenn l..
Martin, Otis Elevator. Stude-
baker.
Ponder these figures: the in
come and excess profits tax
reserves set up by 90 leading
manufacturing corporations for
first quarters compare thus, the
National City Bank of New
York records:
First quarter 1899. S 23,143,0q0
First quarter 1910. Al 1920
First quarter l941.. Isl, $4,000
CommuniStic lies should be
vigilantly nailed, because they
doubtless mislead many honest,
fair-minded, patriotic American
workers. :,

Need for Mechanics

"The significant thing about
these figures" SAID Thomas P.
Henry. Detroit, president Of the
national motoring body, ais that
they reflect more cars on the
road and more motoring. More
than anything else they offer
convincing proof of the impor-
lance of having available at all
times an adequate supply of
trained mechanics to keep our
motor vehicles moving.
This is really a matter for
national concern at time when
thousands of skilled automobile
mechanics are leaving their ga
rage and service station jobs be-
cause of the demands from
aircraft and other industries
that are expanding TO meet de-
Tense production. The 20 per
cent decrease agreed upon in the
number Of passenger cars to he
produced next year will in
evitably mean more older cars
on the road and more use of
these cars. This condition in
turn will call for more serVicing.
Hence, the importance of real
and continuing program of per
sonnet training to assure proper
servicing of our nations vital
motor transportation"

Temporary Boom

Altschul suggests a guiding
philosophy for such council in
his new book entitled, Let No
Wave Engulf Us" Altschul
warns that the war boom is
only temporarily concealing the
basic EMBELLISHMENTS in our
economy of the last II years.
In suggesting moderation, Alt
schul does not draw a Suffi-
GENTLY clear cut distinction be-
tween symptomatic disSatiSfac-
ton with the system and the
true technical causes of the en-
listing Embellishments and dis
PARTIES.
A possible forcrunner for the
council is the nine-man produc-
ton planning board. which John
d. BiggerS, director of produc-
ton of the office of production
management, appointed late in
February to serve him in a
technical advisory capacity. This
board was charged. among other
duties. with the task of thinking
beyond the emergency to post
war economic conditions.

In due course. il will affect all

Fuel oil prices are headed

Prices Continue
Rise Despite
u. 5. Ceilings
By LEWIS HANEY

Professor Of Economics. \. " University
Despite a good deal OF talk
and the addition Of another of
fice" 10 the growing list Of al
phabetical war bureaus, The
price problem is by no means
solved. No definite action seems
10 have been taken. Meanwhile,
prices continue 10 rise.
In fact. 1t is probable that IN
some cases prices are really
higher than the published quo
tationS show
4 For example, ] learn through
a well-poSted friend IN the
metal trades that although the
price Of copper is supposed to
be held at y cents a pound IN
the regular primary market,
and l2ia cents in the outside
market. these prices are not the
only ones. He states that brass
foundries in the Pittsburgh dis
\ trict are paying 14la cents 10
15ia cents Tor copper. They
even pay 14s, cents pound for
.old copper trolley wire.

Means All Prices

To freeze" all prices means,
to fix them all. To be made
effective, that would require
complete government control
over all production and con-
sumption. Utter RECOMMENDATION
would result.
The more elastic system. to-
ward which we now appear 10
be moving. may not be so bad.
If il be assumed that some
price-fxing is now desirable, as
most of US agree. and that
price-fixing should be kept sep
arate from any scheme TO fight
initiation" the Henderson APP
proach has the following meritSi
1t would allow some chance
for particular price advances to
stimulate production of particu-
larry scarce products.
1t would try to deal with the
causes of particular price rises.
1t Is in accord with the price
system. which is the essence Of
economic democracy.
