Few Other Changes Due.
Aside from the new Packards
little other new model activity is
in prospect for this year. A few
body changes for models now in
production may be made.
When Buick announced it's new
Super and Roadmaster series sew
eral months ago it indicated a
new body was in the making for
its Special" of 40" series models.
This repeatedly is we'll along in
the construction process.
Wards reports said that Cen
eral Motors also has another body
change in mind, probably for 1850
models. 1t would be designed, that
agency said, to provide roornier
interiors and larger door openings

Auto Output Rising;
1949 Total Due 10 Be
Million by March 5
By Dovid J. WiIkie
Associated Press Avtennetive Editor

Assoeiuted Press Autonotive Editor
DETROIT, Feb. 21.-The car in
dustry's output moved forward
slightly last week.
Although Hudson lost nearly
/ 400 units because of parts short
ages, the week saw 106,838 cars
and trucks completed. The pre-
ceding weeks total was 106, ITO.
With this output, the 1949 total
so far reaches about $4,000 vehi-
cles. Before March S, the factories
will have built their first million
vehicles for 1949.
Continuing to gain volume were
most of the Chrysler divisions, all
of which are changing to new
models. The several General Mo-
tors divisions, especially Chevro-
let. also are striving for increased
output. Chevrolet has just COM
pleted a change to new models
and continues to run far behind
Ford in output volume.
New Dodges to Be Out Friday.
Chrysler'S new Dodge models,
already shown privately to deal
ers in many sections. get their
public introduction Friday. They
will be the first of the new Chrys-
Ter vehicles to make a public ap-
pearance.
The models now getting into
production have a 123-inch Wheel
base. Later Dodge plans to in
troduce a new three passenger
coupe, two-door sedan and road
ster on 115-inch wheelbase.
There continues to be a lot of
speculation regarding the new
Dodge price tags. All indications
are that they will be higher.
Although Hudson has been feel
ing an almost constant parts
shortage, it has kept its output
volume well UP above last years.
In the first seven weeks of this
year Hudson has turned out about
$4,000 cars. In the same period a

with about 5000 in the same

Many industry sources expect
Packard to set a new production

they're shelled! Whiz! they re
washed! And by the time you can
run to the end of the Line, you'll
probably meet those selfsame beans
all done up in a package. And get

The rush doesn't stop there. Brrrr

GUAM
(From Mrs. F. c., McLeanJ

(From Mrs. F. c., McLednJ
Recently information was re-
quested about Guam by an Air
Force wife who expects to join
her husband there shortly.
I left Guam last year and
doubt very much If conditions
have changed appreciably In that
time.
The climate is. for the most
part, pleasant. There is always
q prevailing breeze, and though it
may be quite hot in the sun. one
can be quite comfortable in the
shade due to the steady winds.
There are two seasons, the rainy
from September until May and
the dry which is the summer sea-
son. Typhoons are prevalent dur
ing the rainy season, or rather
the threat of them, so it is vital
to have raincoats. Everything is
subject to mold in the damp cli-
mate, so do not take leather things
or shoes that you care about. It
is necessary to keep such things
in a hot closet with light burning
constantly to prevent mildew.
Private automobiles are a
"must". although there Is bus
service of a sort. The distances are
great and activities widely dis
persed. urge the lady to take
her car, by all means. 1t is posi-
BILE to purchase automobiles on
Guam, but at higher cost.
Government quarters, are for
the most part. Quonset type hous-
ing, for both enlisted and officer
personnel. However, the Army was
building tropical style cottages at
the time I left which were quite
adequate and attractive, though
small. The furnishings are ele-
mentary, but not bad. I suggest
taking whatever small personal
fixtures that might add to more
comfortable living, such as electric
iron, ironing board, toaster, elec-
trio fans, sheets, towels. bed linen,
small rugs, (of cotton that will
wash as Guam is both muddy and
dusty in season. and any small
pictures to make the place more
homelike.
Hats are seldom. if ever. worn,
however. an assortment Of attrac-
tive scarves will prove useful to
keep ones hair from blowing In
the wind. Cotton dresses will
prove most practical, both for
day and dress, and Of course
several bathing suits If one likes
swimming or beach activities.
There are several pleasant
bathing beaches, though the water
is very shallow and not too good
for swimming. It is fun to have
a pair of underwater goggles to
look at the beautiful small tropical
fish in the reefs. One should have
bathing shoes as the coral rocks
are very sharp and infections can
be hard to heal.
Both the Army and the Navy
have excellent commissaries on
the island and each may use the
others facilities. There are also
native stores and markets, but
they are expensive. If not more
so than stateside stores. For
example, fresh island eggs were
81 q dozen when left. Fresh
milk is obtainable but was about

REQUESTS?

(Fron, Mrs. J. X. G, Alexandria,
I have learned so may things
from your wonderful column that
II am sure some Of you can help
me with few problems I've come
up against lately:
First: How to get rid Of large
mildew stains which have appeared
Ion the underside of a supposedly
mildew proof rubber bathtub mat?
I air it in the sun every day ana
have scrubbed 1t many times, but
Its only getting worse.
Second: I have three pairs OF
monks cloth drapes which have
caused me so much woe could
gleefully reduce them to cinders
| in the incinerator, but decided to
turn to you before doing anything
rash. They were originally straw
colored and using a well known
three letter dye. I dyed them
dark green, boiling each pair IN
the dye for 80 minutes. They
become faded and streaked with
yellow from the sun. I Will be
eternally grateful to any one who
can tell me some way Of redying
them so that they will be fade
proof, at least for a reasonable
length of time.
Third: What is the best kind
of wax or polish to use on mahog-
any furniture? Every thing I've
tried seems to leave an oily film
on which every flngerprint stands
out very prominently and to which
dust clings like grim death.
Does any one have good rec
ipe for apple sauce, something With
little zip. in 1t?
I have an original recipe Tor
truly delicious chop suey which I
would be happy to pass on. Also
one for superb roquefort cheese
salad dressing.
INK SPOT ON RUG.
/ (From Mrs. II. C. p, WashingtonJ
Attention e. T.: Take q bottle
of coffee cream and pour little
on the ink spot. Leave it alone
tor q few minutes or longer, then
rub In on spot. Take a lukewarm
soapy solution and rag or brush
and wash up cream. No stain
from ink is visible. It's excellent.

cheap place In which to live.
Prices for everything are higher
than here and servants scarce
and wages high. What service
one may obtain is usually rudi-
However. as compen-
sation there is no income tax!
Washing machines are provided
by the Government, to be shared
by several families. These are In
constant use.
Guam is a beautiful island, and
the natives are friendly and
pleasant people. It is still a
frontier. however, rather like
Honolulu must have been, in
way, about so years ago. It is
rapidly being commercialized and
modernized which seems rather
a pity. There is little or no
native craft, though the people
from the north end of the is
land do attractive weaving OF the
native pandanus leaf, and make
shell jewelry. The native craft
shop sells a set Of cats eye neck
lace and bracelet for about $50.
These are shells set in silver,
which will give an idea Of the
prevailing prices. Shell pocket
books bring anywhere from $12
to $25 and up. Homemade pies
from the native bakery were 81
each when I was there. So you
see what mean.
But good luck on Guam, and I
hope you will like it. We did.

wrap for the winter evenings
which are often windy and chilly

Mr.. Taft On His WaY

Although the election is more than
a year off, in about two more weeks
Mr.. Robert A. Taft will actively be-
gin his campaign in Ohio for third
term as United States Senator His
purpose is to speak at least once in
every one Of the States 113 counties.
This, his initial tour, will take three
months.
When one considers what and
whom Mr. Taft is fighting his start
seems none to soon. His opponents,
who include the CIO, the AFL, the
Railroad Brotherhood, John L. Lewis,
President Truman and all the "Roose-
welt liberals and left-wingers
throughout the country. have already
started. Their propaganda mills are
steadily grinding out anti-Taft ma
terial and their financial plans, de-
signed to provide unlimited money
for Mr.. Taft's defeat, are in full oper-
alton. All of which lifts this contest
high above the local level.
So far as this issue is concerned
