Truck Sales Reduced
To 500 a Month as
Stocks DwindIe
ODT Reveals Cut;
Passenger Trailer
Output Halted
B, the Associated Press.

B. the Associated Press.
The Nations supply of new heavy
trucks is so low that sales have
been cut from 1000 month to
500, the Office of Defense Transpor-
tation reported today.
Only 5000 new trucks weighing
two tons or more remain in the
Government controlled pool for
civilian use, the ODT said in a
statement urging truck operators to
conserve their equipment.
The curtailment was ordered by
the War Production Board effective
this month, officials said, but no
public announcement was made.
The War Production Boards order
halting production of truck trailers
as of June 80 has been amended to
cover passenger trailers as well.
Wire Glass Prices Curbed.
The Office of Price, Administration
today imposed a ceiling at the man
ufacturers level on rolled and wire
glass, widely used in defense homes
and industrial plants, with the max
imum fixed at price levels prevailing
last October.
The regulation does not affect
substantially the prices which pro-
oucers were permitted to charge un-
der the universal price ceiling, be-
cause the industry has been oper-
ating under a voluntary agreement
to hold prices at the level of Octo-
ber LIS, 1941, and this was the
level prevailing in March, the base
date under the universal ceiling.
However, OPA said the new order
would set forth specific figures which
would aid both buyers and sellers
and facilitate the administration of
price control for the industry. The
schedule is effective next Saturday.
Deadline Is Fixed.
OPA also announced that the
deadline for the filing of statements
showing ceiling prices on cost-of-
living commodities offered for sale
for the first time after July /, has
been extended from the first to the
10th of each month. The amend
ment will give retailers more time
to prepare and file the required
statements with local war price and
rationing boards.
Another price ceiling revision pro-
vided maximum prices for special
I purpose used inner tubes at figures
higher than those for ordinary used
tubes. Special purpose tubes are
those usually described as pune
ture sealing" self sealing" and
double walled" The newly pre-
scribed maximum prices are about
so per cent of the average list prices
of such tubes new.

Don't Want Amateurs

It's not an easy field to in
wade, if you're an amateur.
Trained actors and actresses are
wanted. AS a matter Of fact, it
is simpler to break into the
legitimate stage-for producers
are constantly on the alert for
new faces, new types.
In radio, the producers aren't
particularly interested in the
faces or shapes as much as "spe-
cialty" ability as indicted in
previous paragraphs or all round
versatility.
An actress who can project an
old woman's voice for one show
and debutante's for another
and harridan's for another
can get all the work she wants.
Identities Concealed
or course, it's tough on the
actors who have as much ham
in their makeup as any screen
or stage player-but the busi-
ness of keeping their personali-
ties in the background is a
carefully worked out strategy.
1t wouldn't do to let the au-
dience know that juvenile i've is
being delivered by a 45-year-old
veteran with a beard or that the
lovely immature daughter of the
house Is actually a buxom but
talented actress of 80 with two
children of her own.
Daytime serial fans accept the
characters in the show as real
human beings whom they know
personally. Brenda Cummins.

and other fictonal characters of
