Do you toss and turn at night in vain
attempt to sleep-because of heartburn and
acid distress? Does sour stomach frequently
keep you wide-eyed and sleepless until the
wee small hours of the morning?
If SO, here's suggestion that can be worth
its weight in gold:-Just eat pleasant
tasting Tums few minutes before retiring.

See if you don't fall asleep faster feel
fresher and brighter when you awaken in

Millions who are prone to nighttime acid
distress say that soothing Tums are the
grandest "sleeP-insurance" ever. Look for
Tums on top of counters wherever drug items
are sold. Still only dime.

TUMS Put The Fun Back Into

Army Is Through
With Goo; Packs
Weapons in Sacks

KANSAS CITY - Soldiers who
have worked all night trying to
scrub and scrape thick, gooey
grease off new rife will greet
with enthusiasm the Army's new
method of mothballing weapons. =
For years the Army has packed
and stored weapons in a heavy,
dark brown grease preservative.
Soldiers to whom the arms later
were issued found the job of ready
ing them for inspection and action
a laborious, patience-trying task.
To make them ready meant
stripping the rifle, pistol. Or ma
chinegun down to the last screw,
taking it completely apart and
cleaning every crevice, and then
putting them back together again.
Even then, when re-assembled,
grease that had escaped attention
often "sweated out" of the guns
and soiled uniforms.
But now-at long last-Army
Ordnance has developed a new
storage pack that soon will replace
the sticky preservative grease.
With this new pack, a weapon
may be stored for 20 years and,
when taken out is ready for instant
use. 1t isn't even necessary to
lubricate the weapon.
This new preservative pack ac-
tually is a thick envelope. 1t con-
sists Of an outer layer of cotton
fabric, layer of plastic-coated
aluminium foil and an inner sheet
of kraft paper coated with a spec
ial chemical
The chemical is the secret of the
packaging system. 1t is a volatile
compound known as VCI- volatile
corrosion inhibitor. when the
weapon Is inserted in the envelope,
the package is closed by heat-seal-
ing it. Then VCI performs the job
that the grease did.

$7.04 last week and compared with
$3.50 last June at the outbreak
of the Korean war, and with $5.78
year ago. It's now at the high
est level since early August of
1948. The record is $7.36, estab-
lished> in mid-July of 1948.
BIS said the 3O-day spurt in
all prices was the greatest per-
centage increase since September,
1947, when the consumer price
index rose % per cent.
Part of Steady Advance.
The newest increase is part of
a steady advance in family living
costs which began last March.
BIS also noted that two thirds of
1950's increase occurred after the
beginning of the Korean war late
in June.
For instance, between December,
1949 and June, 1850, the rise
was 1.6 per cent. as against As
per cent between June and De-
cember, 1850
The BIS report today thus
serves as a perfect backdrop for
the Government freeze on prices
and wages expected at any time.
The price index for December
Is was 1884. which the agency
said was 6.5 per cent above that
of a year ago and 81 per cent
above August. 1889.
Survey Gives Breakdown.
The price survey gave this
in various categories:
Food-Mainly responsible for
the 2.8 per cent increase were
81 per cent rise in eggs, "A per

and 1.6 per cent for meats. poul-
try and fish. Fats and oils were

Washington was listed among
nine cities in which increases of
4 per cent or more were reported
for food prices. However, no con-
sumer price index was announced
for Washington, since living costs
here are surveyed only quarterly.
Accordingly, Washington living

10 Speed
Warp|ane Program
By Froncis P. Douglas

The National Production Au-
thority extended Government con-
trolls still deeper in the produc-
ton field today to speed the pro-
grams for military planes and
guided missiles.
The agency delegated to the
Defense Secretary the power to
reschedule deliveries of all types
of aluminium forms used in planes
and missiles.
An NPA official explained that
if certain aluminium forms ordered
by one plane manufacturer are
critically needed by another
manufacturer, the Defense Secre-
tary may order the aluminium pro-
ducer to divert the forms from the
first manufacturer to the second.
Only delivery schedules and not
production schedules are involved,
the production being controlled
by earlier regulations that an
aluminium producer must accept
defense orders and set aside a
certain part of his production for
them.
The order was signed by Manly
Fleischmann. acting NPA admin
istrator, who has succeeded Will
liam H. Harrison. Mr.. Harrison,
meanwhile. issued his first order
as head of the new Defense Pro-
duction Administration. 1t dele
gates his authorities to the present
operating agencies with two ex-
ceptions.
Under the new setup, the DPA
rather than the National Security
Resources Board will issue certifi-
Gates for tax benefits permitting
speedy writeoffs of the costs of
new plant facilities for the de-
fense program. Certificates for

loans for new plant construction
will be issued now by DPA. al

issued them in the past will make
recommendations to Administra-
tor Harrison.

a range of from 20 to 80 cents
per passenger to from 25 cents
to IS cents.
PUG Chairman James H. Flana-
gan said he would schedule pub
lie hearing later on the petition.
The drivers pointed out that
the present rate was based on a
cost of operation of 6 cents mile
plus a return for the drivers labor
at the rate of 95 cents an hour,
then the current rate of compen-
sation for local streetcar and bus
operators.
Since the present rate was estab-
lished, the petition pointed out,
there have been substantial in
creases in costs. Increases range
from sos per cent in the cost of
new Chevrolet taxicab to 800
per cent in the cost of skid chains,
the PUG was told.
Present cost of operation, it was
contended. has increased from five
cents mile to eight cents mile,

In addition, the petition said,
the average rate of pay for bus
drivers and similar operators in
the District has increased from

or 83 per cent.
The petitioners said they had
received many complaints from
the public and from drivers con-
corning group riding. These COM
plants chiefly concerned misun-
derstandings Of the rates where
the. passengers embark in differ
ent zones, failure of drivers to stop
for additional group passengers in
Zone when their cabs are partly
occupied by passengers starting In
Zones or 4, and reluctance of
some passengers who telephoned
for cab to share 1t with prospec-
tive group riders.
Another complaint mentioned
involved instances where the first
passenger is taken too far out of
the way for the discharging of
others whose destinations were In
the same general direction.
Presented by Committee.
The petition asked that addi-
tional passengers not be acceptable
unless their destinations were no
more than five city blocks off the
direct route to the first passen-
gers destination. This is an
attempt to more closely define the
same general direction" provision
OF the group riding regulation.
An amendment is asked which
would remove group riding from
instances where taxi cabs are en-
gagged through radio or telephone
dlSpatchers or emergency calls
and when a taxi previously has
been hired by the hour.

the PUG by a committee repre-
senting an estimated 90 per cent
