ment board said today none OF the
money saved by the government
through the renegotiation OF war
contracts was given back on the
termination of the contracts.
The six members of the board,

Senator Mead D-NY saying con-
fusion had resulted from testl-
mony by Comptroller General
Lindsay Warren July 20 before a
Senate committee investigating a
munitions combine headed by
Henry and Murray Carson.
Warren said at that time ut IS

board declared, chat the dollar:

FREE PARKING
FOR VISITORS
Special Tags Issued For
Out-Of-Towners AS
Welcome Token

Special tags emitting out-of
town visitors to free parking ir
motorized and time-limited zones
will be issued some time this
week, City Manager j. R. Benson
announced yesterday.
The idea was originated by Paul
Franklin Bell, assistant secretary
of the Wilmington Chamber Of
Commerce, and the first batch Of
$500 tags was ordered from a local
printing company yesterday, Ben
son said.
Signed % Mayor Ronald Lane,
Police Chief C. H. Casteen, and
Benson, the tags say Hello
Visitor. Welcome to Wilmington"
They are stamped with the official
city seal and set forth information
on the city and county population,
industry, and resort and scenic
areas.
They will be distributed in the
following manner: Each city
policeman will be given a batch
of the tags for each day. The
policeman, making his rounds of
the city, will tie a tag on every
car parked in a metered or time
limited zone which bears plates
or other identification which shows
that it is owned by non-residents
of New Hanover county.
The tag will entitle the owner
to free parking in the limited
zone for that day. If he should use
the limited zones the following
day, the policeman will tie a new
tag on the car.
Bell and the city officials have
agreed unanimously that the tags
will serve as fine advertising"
for the city to the out-of-towners.
