We want 10 fhonk our customers una pro-

patience while awaiting your new
ChevroIefs.
We know il is hardship TO wait for

you will understand that we, and
Chevrolet, ore as eager TO deliver cars as
you are TO obfoin them. Unfortunately,
production SO far fhis year is for under
expectations. Chevrolet Motor Division
sums up fhe situation thus:
''Even though our rufe OF production
normally exceeds that of any other
manufacturer, we hove been oble to
build, up 70 July l, only ia per cent
as many cars as we had built up 10
fhui dufe i'm 1o4l. Production is still
far below normal, because Of fre-
qUent shoHuges Of essential mofe-
rioIs and ports. Strike offer strike at fhe
plunfs of our sUppIiers has seriously
impeded our progress toward full
production, and the cumulative
effect severely hampers every munU-
fociUring and assembly plant. In
June we We're able TO build only
29.2 per cent as many GERS as we
produced in the Some month in
Io41."
While production is restricted, so--in

AS production increases, we are assured
OF geffing our proPoriionase share of the /,

$1,000 CoIone|s Face
Demotion by Feb. |
Under New Schedule

The War Departments tentative
plan to denote $500 colonies to lieu
tenant colonels between May and
September / and 1000 lieutenant
colonies to majors between June /
and September has no relation to
the program for integrating tenn
pprary officers in the regular peace
time Army, Maj. Gen. Willard s..
Paul, assistant chief of staff, said
yesterday.
The demotion schedule announced
by Gen. Paul looks toward further
reductions in rank between Septem-
ber and February in these cate
gories: 500 more colonies, 1000 lieu
tenant colonies, 1000 majors and
$500 captains. No officer is likely to
be denoted more than one grade
before July l, 1947, and no demo-
tions below the grade of lieutenant
colonel are contemplated before
September /.
Meanwhile, the War Department
hopes by June 80 to have well under
way its work Of screening and Sc
lecting temporary omcers who have
applied for permanent commissions.
Gen. Paul said these applicants
know they cannot come in at high
rank" and therefore will not drop
out because of the current demotion
plan. He said he does not expect
many regular officers to leave the
service as result of these demo-
tionS.
Junior Promotions Studied.
At the same time the department
is giving very serious consideration"
to the problem of future promotion
of junior officers. About two-thirds
Of the wartime generals already have
been retired or reduced in rank and
the percentage of general staff
officers to total officers is only about
one-half of one per cent, Gen. Paul
disclosed.
Despite the demotion and retire
ment programs, it is felt in some
quarters that high-rankng officers
might remain in sufficiently large
numbers to block" chances of ad-
vancenent OF subordinate ofncers
Evening star., 1946-04-24

for a long time to come. The War
Department is aware of this prob
lem and is making q thorough
study" Gen. Paul said.
The tentative program disclosed
yesterday implements a War De-
partment statement which several
weeks ago outlined the demotion
policy. The program, he said, is
still tentative and the projects de-
pend on several factors.
Army Size One Factor.
These include the rate at which
senior colonels leave active service,
changes that may be made in de-
termining the ultimate size of the
peacetime Army and the number
Of officers who decide to retire rather
than accept demotion.
The War Department allows only
two exceptions from this demotion
schedule. The combat-wounded man
in hospital and the officer who is
coming before a retirement board
will not be denoted while he re-
mains In that status. Gen. Paul

HUNTING LICENSE SALES
AHEAD OF EXPECTATIONS

The 1946-47 hunting license
sales already have broken all re-
cords for this early in the new sea-
son according to Harry F. West,
Chief of the Accounty Section of
the Ohio Division of Conservation
and all indications point to a great
er number of hunters in the fields
than ever before.
Although all license agents were
provided with a considerably larg-
er allotment during the initial dis
tribution than in years past, al
ready the demands for more Ii
censes are flooding the Columbus
Office.
A general trend toward outdoor
sports along with the sudden re-
turn to peacetime recreation on
the part of both war production
workers and thousands of return
ed service men and women, ac-
count for the heavy increase in
both hunting and fishing license
sales.
