THE WEATHER-WHAT | LIKE
ABOUT THE SOUTHWEST CD

According to most of the South
vests Chamber of Commerce
groups, one is not supposed to be
able to tell the difference between
summer and winter. This is fine
and wonderful, I will agree, as I am
not one to argue with the Chamber
of Commerce. It's so wonderful, in
fast, that hordes of Fasteners, war
or no war, make annual pilgrimages
to the old West to spend a lovely,
warm winter.
Their stay usually follows defin-
ite pattern something like this:
The dude" arrives wearing light
summer clothes which are immedi-
ately "dampened'' by very heavy
fog. He is met at the train by rela-
tives or friends who have with them
an old gentleman of about go, who
comes especially to testify that to-
day was the first time it's rained
in December for thirty years. But
as soon as this rainy spell clears
up, he can do all kinds of exciting
things. Say, maybe break wild
horse or rope a calf On if he's on
the coast, he can go down to the
beach and have wonderful time.
That is, as soon as it clears up. ooh
well, the dudes always were partial
to bathing suits that could serve as
a winter overcoat. if necessarily

throngs of joyous folks who bring
him glad tidings of great joy; it has
stopped RAINING. Of course, the
sun hasn't come out yet; but it's a
little early, and the clouds will go
away pretty soon.

anxiously awaiting the suns arrival,

self to run down to the drug store
for a cup of coffee.
The natives, shocked and a little
hurt by his complete Indifference,
bid him a puzzled farewell. After
all! This is an event like an eclipse
or something. The sun shines
every day by the way that foreigner
acts!
Nevertheless he goes, alone Of
course, for no one else will take the
chance of missing the suns first
few rays. He puts on two or three
extra sweaters and his overcoat, and
ventures out into the streets. Shiv-
ering, he enters the drug store and
downs several cups of coffee to
warm up. AS he drinks his coffee,
he remembers that his vacation is
almost over. Why, he has only
three days left. It's high time to
start getting ready for the trip back.
;. It's his last day, and only a
few hours until train time. All his
friends are still waiting around for
the sun, and thus pay him very
little attention. BY a great deal of
shouting and pulling, he manages
to drag three people down to the
station to see him off.

sees no one is paying any attention

see the sun, which has just come
out.
Oh, we'll, he can always use those
nice winter things which he bought
on his vacation

Clothing Price Cut
Apparently SheIved
BY New 0PA Ruling
BY the Associated Press.

by the Associated Press.
The Governments plans for roll
ing back clothing prices appeared
today to be Sidetracked indefinitely.
Chances for a to 7 per cent cut
in retail prices-the goal set early
this year-received another jolt as
the OPA granted further price con-
cessions to fabric manufacturers.
The agency announced last night
that for the rest of this year pro-
ducers Of woolen and worsted fab
RIGS can turn out about the same
price lines of merchandise they did
before the rollback was ordered.
Beginning in 1916 they will be
required to trim their average
prices some, but not as much as
originally planned. The revised Or
der will be based on prices slightly
less than those which prevailed in
1914, rather than on 1943 prices.
Period Unrepresentative.
This is being done, OPA said, be-
cause military requirements and re-
strictions on the use of virgin wool
in 1943 made that period "unrep-
resentative of normal civilian oper-
ations."
While only fabrics are affected at
present, it was learned that OPA
soon will make similar adjustments
for garment manufacturers. This
means that at least part of the
projected retail cut will be wiped
out for such apparel as mems suits
and overcoats, children's snow suits,
girls skirts, women's coats and
wide variety of other items.
OPA acknowledged that adjust
