current price trends.
Values Are Improving In: /
APPLIANCES. Despite the
continuing S tie el shortage,
price cuts are squeezing some
of the initiation out of house
hold appliances. SO m e OF
| these slaShes are unpublic-
ICED. Many dealers quietly
started offering discounts up
to 20@o on the more plentiful
appliances even during the
height of the Christmas sea-
son. This trend is particularly
noticeable on vacuum clean
ers with some dealers in the
larger cities even ripping off
the name plates to avoid re-
taliation from any manufac-
turers who don't want to see
their list prices cut. Retailers
are also offering price con-
.cessions on irons, wringer
washing machines, and the
larger refrigerators.
Price cutting is also spreading
by way of trade-in allowances.
Various stores are now allowing
150 for old irons on the pur-
chase of new ones, as much as
$50 for old washers. A recent
survey by trade magazine re-
vealed one out of four dealers
now accepts trade-inS on radios.
How much allowance you get on
your old one generally depends
on how expensive a new one you
buy. There has also been a flood
of price-cutting of radios under
the guise of clearance sales of
floor models"
The downtrend in prices of
has been further ac-
celebrated by open reductions of
2 to l0Po announced by Sears
on its popular Coldspot
refrigerators.
Only important appliances still
scarce and for the most part
commanding full prices are some
of the more popular automatic
particularly the more
moderately-priced ones, and the
smaller refrigerators. Prices if
television sets are steady for the
time being; some even went up
recently. Reason advanced by.
the makers: shortage of glass
tubes, especially for the larger
sets. But some dealers are quiet
ly offering discounts on tele sets
too.
CLOTHING. Chief improve
ment in prices is in mems cloth
ing as reported in detail by this
department two weeks ago. A
barrage of cut-price clearances
of mems coats and suits can be
expected between now and Feb
ruary, spelling out a buying op-
portunity for wage earners.
Price cuts on shoes have been
limited to only IS or soc, and
by only a few makers at that.

adopted he said: II know of no
other cause which is as great
and worthwhile as this Summer
Camp for the children. The
UAW-CIO is recognized thru
out the world as being the
greatest benefactor to its mem
bers and this is another out
standing example of how these
benefits are enjoyed by their
entire families. The Summer
Camp is one of the main things
that is bringing our children
out of the underprivileged
class"
"PAC and voting in the cleo
tions are some of the other very
activities that are so
necessary to help the kiddies
get a decent break out of life,
There is a lot of conversation
about juvenile delinquency but
UAW-CIO appears to be the
only one doing something about
eliminating it."
In conclusion Mr.. Mooney
said, Our members must realize
this and work hard never letting
up for a moment until this op-
portunity is guaranteed to our
future generations"
Following this talk the mem
bers of Local AZ adopted the
program and suggestions to
