CONSUMER NOT ENTITLED TO
TRADE-IN PRICE.

Old rubber boots or work shoes,
turned in by consumers in connection
with purchases of rationed new mems
rubber boots or workshops, do not
entitle the consumer to a credit on
the price of the new articles, the
OPA has decided. Announcement of
this rule was made to avoid any mis-
understanding of the method of pric-
ing. The articles are governed by
ceiling prices.
The dealer, OPA explained, won't
realize any profit out of the sur
rendered footwear. 1t can't be sold
as secondhand garments but only as
scrap at low figure. If it appears
that any dealer will benefit through
receipt of surrendered footwear, ap-
propriate action will be taken, OPA
said

WPB SLASHES TIRE CHAIN
PRODUCTION.

Tire chains, most valuable of all
winter accessories to the northwest
motorist, have been cut to small
part of their former output, the WPB
says. The reduction amounts to about
60 per cent, but $1,000 tons of carbon
steel will be saved for the war ef-
fort.
Slower driving and less of it, public
officials said, will mean less skidding
and hence reduced need for these
items.

HOUSEWIVES HELP ENFORCE
PRICE CEILING.

Each Northwest housewife should re-
gard herself a committee of one to
get compliance from merchants on the
latest price ceiling order applying to
group of highly important commod
tiles on her food budget, according to
OPA officials.
Not that merchants are expected to
violate the ceilisg on these commod-
tiles The vast majority, OPA officials
said, will hew as closely to the CELL
ing Oh ders on the new group of foods
as they have on the original ceiling
orders. The housewife, they said,
should keep track of prices and be-
come ceiling price conscious during
the war emergency period.
The new commodities added to price
ceiling control are poultry, mutton,
cheese, canned milk, onions, white
potatoes, dry beans, cornmeal, fresh
citrus fruits and canned citrus fruits
and juices. The top prices charged by
individual merchants during the per-
iod between September % and october
2 becomes the ceiling prices on these
commodities from now on.
Housewives, the OPA recommended,
should check back her grocery bills
and sales slips for the prices she
paid for these commodities and make
a complete list of those prices. The
list should be taken to the store when |
she goes shopping.
The new ceiling order does not fix
any prices, the OPA said. Each store
has its own ceiling and will adhere to
that. The housewife thereby can still
hunt for bargains. The order simply
prohibits merchants from charging any
more for these commodities than he
did during the shopping days from
% through october 2.
Where merchants are charging more
than the ceiling, housewives should
call the situation to the dealers at
tention for correction, OPA said.

EDUCATED AT LWOW
Now 81, Sikorsky was educated
as an engineer at Lwow Univer-
Sity, went into military life and
gained world renown in the Russo
Polish war in 1920 when he COM
manded the Polish fifth army and
defeated there Soviet armies and
Budenny'S famous cavalry corps in
a battle which at that time was
called one of the 20 decisive bat
ties in history.
Marshal Foch called upon Pill
SudSki as an adviser, gave Sikorski
full credit for winning that war
and pronounced him the greatest
strategiSt in Europe"
SikorSki became Polish chief of
staff in 1921 and prime minister a
year later when Gabriel Naruto-
wicZ, president of Poland, was as
sasSinated. He averted civil war
by his energetic administration and
sealed his reputation as a master
diplomat when he persuaded the
of ambassadors to rec
ognize Poland's new eastern from
tiers.
In 1924, he began building the
small but efficient Polish navy.
He retired from the army in 1926
and became a writer on military
topics.
