Packard's $4,000 war workers
have the first message from their
own fighting plane, the Sky-Clip-
per, that they have been awaiting
since they presented the new
North American Mustang P-5lB,
powered by an engine they built,
TO the army air forces al the
Detroit City Airport on Sept. IS.
Word came from the u. S.
Eighth Air Force headquarters IN
England that the plane. paid for
by donating hours of working
time, has already taken part in
five missions over Nazl-occupied

Postwar Cars
Up Is Pet, Says
Dealers Head
Continuation OF High
Taxes, Labor, Material
10 Bring Increase.

Postwar automobile buyers
should be prepared to find az least
a . per cent higher price tag
attached 10 their purchases than
they did before Pearl Harbor
That warning was voiced by Harry
NJ Williams, president Of the
Automobile Merchants Association
of New York, in asserting that
continuation Of high taxes and
increased labor and material costs
VIII neceSSitate a sharp rise IN the
retail price of the FIRST models off
the assembly lines.
These cars, he stressed will be
repicaS of the 1912 models with
but minor changes, owing 10 the
huge consumer demand which
even al the present time would
dwarf the industry's peak year Of
1929 when more than 5000. 900
units were sold

DELAY COSTLY

The need for rapid postwar pro-
ductan, Williams said, viii be-
come more accentuated after July
Of THIS year when the rationed
stockpile of new cars viii have
disappeared if the OPA maintains
It's current rate Of monthly quotas.
Since pHCeS vary IN inverse
proportion ia volume. the dealer
executive pointed out that even
the few months II VIII take manu-
facturerS 10 reset up assembly
lines for the production of these
substantially prewar models Will
contribute 10 the cost increase Of
the first Years output.

WANT ECONOMY

"As q result Of the percentage
increase in the expense of all
makes, he predicted. the bulk
Of postwar sales will be cOncen-
trated in low-price, economical
vehicles. inasmuch as the major
ity of the public will want a car
with greater operating economy
10 compensate for the extra
initial expenditure"
This broadening Of the dollar
price gap between low and high
priced cars, he added, will also
cause automobile manufacturers
TO look toward the field Of light
weight, low-price transportation
in designing subsequent models.

did casting for Accent on Youth" :,
Claudia, and Papa is
Alp. When Mrs. Lestor Preston
and Director Howard Canister
cast, arsenic and Old Lace, they
were at a loss for someone to
play 'Spinalzo''.
The role of Mr.. Spinalzo called
for one of unusual talents; no mere
human would be adequate as this
part was something special -
extra special. Days passed and no
Spinalzo could be found.
Three weeks ago there appeared
on the stage something closely re-
sembling a human being Spinal
zo' had been found and had come
early to his. first rehearsal. 1t had
been hot; study day for Spiaalzo,
and since no one was there, he
dropped into seat to rest in the
dark, quiet of the stage.
Presently Mrs. Charles Chen
worth, cast as Aunt Martha Brew
ster, compounder of the now class
ic Elde7berry wine poison recipe,
came to the hall. Because it was
dark, she fumbled upstairs to the
stage and clipped on a light. She
turned, found a chair and began
studying her lines. Spinalzo, still
half asleep, slid slightly from his
chair. Mrs. Chenworth looked ur
and sat Mortified at the sight Of
this disreputable figure hal
thrown, half draped over a sea-
opposite her.
Surprlzed at first, Mrs. Chen.
worth quickly regained her expert
composure, for by now she realized
this figure opposite her was Mr.
Spinalzo.
MIR. Spinalzo is played by a new
conner to the Thalina Association
Telme Huisit, foreigner to Will
mlngton audiences. Mr.. Huisi
comes to the association highly re-
commended. AS little is known O.
his life prior to his part as Mr.
Spinalzo in the current production
Of Arsenic and Old Lace, az hi
name is unusual. Telme, as his
friends know him is character O.
few words, Howard Canister foune
him easy to direct and more thar
adequate for the part.

they can't afford to waste their

playing the role of family boss.
PARTNERSHIP
Husbands actually lose nothing
by this state of affairs. The wife
whose husband is content with
being a husband-and not set o.,
being Mr.. Big-is usually willing
10 make the marriage a partner
ship, where family matters are
talked over and no one is the &C

But a woman who is married
to a man who is bound and de.
termined to rule the roost just has
to put her mind to outsmarting
him and getting her way in every
thing. Her pride makes her do it.
