and a Suggestion, too !

The war has taught US all the Importance of
careful upkeeP and regular service While
you're waiting for your new Oldsmobile, there
fore, be sure to take advantage of our factory
authorized Oldsmobile service program. We
are offering every kind of modern automotive
service-from fabrication to major overhauls
Regular servicing Of your car will safeguard
your investment and assure you of safe, de-
pendable transportation until that great day
when your new Oldsmobile is here
The Western news. [volume] (Libby, Mont.) 1933-current, 1946-09-05

We know how anxious you are to get your new
Oldsmobile. And there's nothing we'd like better
to do, right now, than to say to every Oldsmo-
bile buyer: your car is here Come get itP
But frankly, it just isn't possible to do that.
There still aren't enough new Oldsmobiles to
go around. Due to shortages in materials
and unavoidable limitations on production, the
output of new cars still is behind schedule.
And our allotments are far below the figures
that we originally anticipated.
We want to assure you, however, that every
thing possible is being done, both here and at
the factory, to get your car in your hands
promptly. And we'd like to take this occasion
to thank you sincerely for the patient and
considerable way in which you have borne with
us during this period of waiting.
Meanwhile, we have an important suggestion:
Don't neglect the car you drive today.

NEW INSURANCE FORMS
OUT SOON FOR VETS

In an attempt to hold off an ex-
pected flood of inquiries regarding
the sweeping changes in govern
ment life insurance, the Kahspell
Office of the Veterans Administra-
ton today requested all World War
II veterans in this area to wait I'M
til new forms and procedures have
been worked out before writing to
or calling the VA for information.
The new regulations went into
effect August first when President
Truman signed the long awaited
bill amending the original National
Service Life Insurance Law.
Designed to make the insurance
of the World War II veterans of
even greater value in peace time,
the new law provides for lump sum
settlements, endowment privileges,
total disability benefits, and re-
moves restrictions on types of bene-
ficiaries
The Kalspell VA office indicated
that as soon as detailed study of
the new bill has been made, the
World War IL veterans of this state
would be notified, so that present
policy holders and those eligible
to re-instate lapsed policies could
take full advantage of the changes.

CANTON, China, July 18.-Amer-
ica's tobacco trade is also suffering
the blows being deluged upon other
items of trade as Markings new un-
official system of autarachy and
modified state socialism begins to
close the once "open door,"
Like the dealers in automobiles,
textiles and other commodities
brought in here by American i'm
porters, tobacco men are taking
sharp setbacks as Kuomintang par
ty leaders make more visible the
pattern Of China's new closed econ
omy.
1t is known that plans already
have been drawn up to create a
Chinese tobacco monopoly, provid-
ing for the maximum use of Chi
nese and the minimum use of for
eign tobaccos. The existence of
such plans is denied by the Chinese;
nevertheless, facsimilies of the plans
are on file in American offices.
U. S. Growers Hard Hit.
The State Department has taken
the line that protest against those
measures will be justified only if
China discriminates especially
against American tobacco. But, in
asmuch as about SO per cent of
China.s. imported tobacco comes
from the United States, the effect
of the Kuomintangs new monopoly
practice in this field mainly hits the
American growers, and It hits them
hard. The United States produces
roughly 1000 000, 900 tons of leaf to-
bacco annually, of which 100000, 900
tons are exported. China takes-or
used to take-one-third of that
amount. e-.-
Two trade combinations now
largely control Chinese tobacco
the Nanyang Bros. Co., of which
Premier T. v. Soong was chairman
of the board until recently, and the
Chung Hwa Tobacco Co. The latter
is another newborn state institu-
ton composed of former Japanese
owned factories, including four ia
Shanghai and three that are now
inactive in Manchuria.
When Premier Soong resigned
his company post this spring, he
placed his brother, T. A. Soong, in
the job of managing director of the
Nanyang Co. T. A. Soong-one of
"T. VS." two brothers, "T. A." and
at. L." who carry his word to the
many interlocking directorates-I
also resigned in the latest Chinese
venture into state cartelization. The
unofficial report was that the two
Chinese tobacco companies were to
be combined into an all-C China mo-
nopoly.
Yardstick Established.

quantity of tobacco that Americans

Police Get 5 Line Throwing
Guns for River Rescues

New equipment to speed rescues
from the Potomac River has been
acquired by the Metropolitan Police
Department, Inspector Milton H.
Smith, chief property clerk, said
yesterday
The equipment consists of five
line throwing guns which were
bought for s26 each from surplus
naval stores. The guns use AS
caiber shells, l or inches long.
The shorter shell will fire a line a
distance of 100 or 125 feet, while
the longer shell will fire it twice as
far. The guns have been issued to
the two harbor police precincts and
to precincts 5, 7 and II.
Inspector Smith also said the de-
partment had acquired $500 neckties
from naval surplus for issuance to
policemen. During the last Is years
officers have been required to buy
their own ties.
The inspector said he would rec
ommend that all patrol boxes in
the District be painted blue. There
are now 413 blue ones and 1872 gray
ones.
