Peace

By LEWIS HANEY

Professor OF Economics. \. y. University
The correct attitude to take to-
ward the stock market at this
time is that it is having a much
needed testing and an overdue
period of correction. The market
had obviously become stale. So
many values were uncertain that
investors were hesitating to buy.
The latest reaction will establish
news bases for appraising values,
and serve AS a better guide Tor
taking a position in the market.
The sharp reaction which broke
out on Friday was indicated by
the markets action on Thursday,
when, after an abortive attempt
to move up, stocks sold off in the
second hour, and ended the day
with weakness on a somewhat in
creased volume of selling. This
was true OF both industrials and
rails

See Fewer Homes

3 There is good reason 10
believe that fewer homes will
be constructed after the war
than has been widely predicted.
The National Association OF
Real Estate Boards. following a
nationwide survey. reports that
the survey indicates an average
constructor Of around 100000
dwelling units per year, rather
than the commonly used eSti-
mate of 100000 houses.
AFTER the war. however.
there will be an unparalleled
demand for motor vehicles.
Moreover. practically all post
war plans Of business in their
execution will require increased
usage Of the motor vehicle, both
in commercial hauling and in
passenger movement.
5-The end of the war may
come suddenly and possibly IN
the not too distant future, as
any one may realize who studies
war maps and war news. a
quick end of the way may re-
suit in legal and administrative
problems which Will retard
termination of war contracts
and rcconversion TO pcacetime

Widely Needed

@ Probably no needs con-
fronted by the United States
are more widespread or urgent
than are highway needs. Even
before the war roads and
streets were wearing out faster
than they were being built.
During the war construction
has virtually stopped and main
tenance necessarily has been
neglected to a dangerous de-
gree. Exhaustive surveys have
shown that urgent construction
should be done on the various
classes OF highways as follows !:
main state highways Including
the federal-aid SyStem), $1,000. %
100000; metropolitan roads and
streets. S500O.000 600, county
and local roads. $4,000 100000.
This makes a grand total Of
$4,000. 000.0 worth OF useful
and needed work waiting 20 be

the war.

OPA in Control

WPB'S control over dlStrlbu-
ton Of new passenger autos to
the army, navy maritime COM
mission and other government
agencies has now been trans
ferred TO the OPA. Cars for
civilians have been ratloned
right along through OPA but
the rest have been under WIPE
control until now
OPA will also regulate export
of cars from the United States.
individuals desiring to export
autos viii require an export
license from the Foreign Eco
nomic Administration as hereto
fore but in place of the govern
ment exemption permit formerly
issued by the WIPE, will require
ration certificate from OPA.
Quotas for the ALLEGATION of
new 1912 passenger cars still
rest with WPB. The new regu-
lauon merely permits OPA to
make distribution within the
prescribed quota limits.

That is. the machine tool build

makers want.
But now WPB. without assign
ing prioritieS 10 the orders, Will
juggle them into position To get
started. Those requiring a long
time TO make will be put IN the
mill first.
In all, there Will be less than
5000 machine tools needed. But
some will require as long as
seven months to build. WPB can
render some substantial aid in
getting them started. II will be
welcomed by both the car manu-
iaCturerS and the machine tool

By WARD SCHULTZ

In all our postwar planning.
here is one phase which must

Naturally, Upham is refer
ing 10 highway construction.
However, he warns that High
way construction constitutes a
problem Of the highest order.
To determine the volume which
should be- carried on by the
Federal. state. county and city
governments, full attention
must be directed TO the follow
.nE facts:
After the war II Is likely

nine and ten million.

that il was the war which ended
