Ceiling Prices
Puton Used Cars
Starting March 7
Making Of Aluminium
Sash and Air Ducts
Will Halt June 30
BY the Associated Press

The Government today banned
the sale of new cars at inflated
prices in the used car market and
set dollars and cents ceiling
prices on all used cars.
The action was announced by
the Office of Price Sterilization
The new regulations are effective
March 2.
Bruce Morris, chief of the
agency's automobile pricing di-
vision, said the move was designed
to halt a widespread" flow of
new cars into the used car market
and to prevent used cars from
selling above new car prices.
Both practices occurred during
the last war.
Five Books Listed.
The price schedule of used cars,
under. the ceiling, will be based
on prices listed in guide books
employed by used car dealers as
a yardstick of values.
OPS listed the five standard
books used in this connection and
said that they will be recognized
as the official source of dollars
and-cents prices for used auto
mobiles.
At the same time, the National
Production Authority ordered the
manufacture of aluminium win
dows and air ducts stopped after
June 80.
NPA also announced the Fed
eral Trade Commission will make
industry surveys, beginning with
aluminium fabricators, to deter
mine how well manufacturers
understand NPA regulations and
are complying with them.
Basis for Future Orders.
Officials said information from
the surveys will be used as a basis
for planning future orders and
"if indicated"-for taking appro-
pirate action to assure compliance
with orders.
Residential type aluminium
windows and aluminium ducts for
heating, ventilating or air-condi-
tioning in residential or other
buildings may be completed up to
June 80 if their manufacture or
assembly is begun by April 30.
Non residential type aluminium
windows may be completed up to
June 80 regardless of when manu-
facture is started, provided that
orders for them were received by
the manufacturer prior to Febru-
airy 20.
Manly Fleischmann. National
Production Authority administra-
tor, said yesterday. in announcing
the forthcoming 20 per cent steel
cut. that a less drastic reduction
than the Is to 40 per cent orig
inally discussed had been decided
on because of the employment
situation.
No Large Scale LayOffs.
Both management and labor
representatives of the industry
had protested that such extensive
cuts would mean laying off be-
tween 100000 and 100000 workers
in the auto industry and that
defense production would not take
up the slack.
ut is our judgment that there
will not be any large-scale I'M
employment" Mr.. Fleischmann
said yesterday.
At the same time, the civilian
use of copper, ordered cut 20
per cent in March, will be cut
by rs per cent in the second
quarter. The IS per cent reduc-
ton in aluminium, scheduled for
March, will continue through the
second quarter.
The cuts are from the levels
of the average use of the metals
in the first half of 1850.

decpened the miseries of the front.
A few Troops took advantage Of
the rain for their hrst<showers in
a month; those who could took
turns ducking into Korean shell
tiers. But for most, the rain meant
a constant soaking.
Red Mortar Fire Accurate.

troops swept northward 10 miles

PHILADEL LPHIA, Nov. g. R - Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner stole away to an undiselnsed honey moon retreat today after ai mystery shrouded wedding at aHFxclusive home in West GermailtoWn.
 While the couple slipped cham pagne and feasted on turkey last night, a score of neWsrnen and photographers tramped the wet pavement outside the home hoping to talk to the bride and groom or to take pictures of them.
 But the newlyweds woHld have none of that. They sneaked in through the back door and three and half hours later summoned half-dozen policemen nswed cars and a patrol wagon to guard an escape route.

BEHIND IRON CURTAIN

A Congressional group, led by Congressmen Francis Walter of Pennsylvania and Frank Chef of Kentucky, was given a lively pep talk by President Truman before taking off for Europe this week to study refugee conditions and overpopulation in western Europ- , can. countries. :,
 If we work out a solution to this problem it will be as important step as we can take against Communism" MT Truman told his Congressional callers.
 The problem of repatriating vast numbers of escapees from behind the Iron Curtain to homes and jobs In free countries is vital, the Presi- dent said For, if left to their own resources, without homes, jobs, or food, some of them re-embrace Communism.
 Some are being well cared for, the President added, but free Eu- rope cannot possibly assimilate all of them. Small countries like Hol- land and Sweden also are being pressured by Russia to return the escapees. So far they have refused, but Truman reminded his callers that 1t isn't very comfortable for a small nation to have big and bellicose neighbor like Soviet Rus sia breathing down it's neck.
 Overpopulation in Italy also is a terribly serious problem" said the President-so serious, in fact, that Italy may soon fall into the laps of the Communists unless its surplus unemployed and hungry people can be repatriated.
 Ethiopia and North Africa, with some help from our Point pro- gram, could accommodate large number of Italy's excess people, Truman reported. Australia, Canada and Venezuela are other places that could absorb some of the overflow, as well as Iron Curtain escapees, and have indicated willingness to do so.
 Note-The President apparently forgot that Ethiopia was once in- vaded by Mussolini and the still ling ering bitterness would never per- init amicable colonization of that country by Italians.

ALASKANS HAVE WARM HEARTS

Alaska may be cold country but it's people have hearts" that is what staff sergeant USAF, in Omaha after two years in Alaska wrote in a letter to the editor of the Omaha World Herald recently
 After all of the talk about Alaskas poor housing facilities for soldiers-and for the general publc-the kind words of the sergeant are heart-warming.
 He continues, Tn Fairbanks man can usaully find two three room house for $50 to $50 month furnished and you were allowed to keep your children.
 However in Omaha, we find sl25 price tag on unflrnished apartments But most of the ads we read are No pets children Alaska may be cold country, but its people have warm hearts"

bis cards on the table. T am sure in my own mind he is. But we've got to prove to him that the Re- publican party is the best party for him, and that there is a genuine demand for him in the party"
 Senator Duff, who has seen lot of the inner workings of the Re- publican Party, did not entirely agree. He maintained that if the general waited too long, Senator Taft would sew up the delegates.
 But the Taft people have way overestimated their strength, I'd say by 250 delegates" Scott argued. I've been to most of the regional Republican gatherings, and Taft just does not have the grass-roots strength. Eisenhower does"
 The Congressman then told of Ike's answer to his impassioned plea in Paris that Eisenhower is needed to inspire the American people and the world. The general was obviously impressed with Scotts spirit and said, If you believe in something hard enough, go out and fight for it. That's the only way to get results.
 The Philadelphia Congressman said he interpreted this to mean that Eisenhower was giving the OK. for campaign on his behalf. Then, if there was real response from the Republican Party, he would CO., operate. ...

PEACE OR WAR?

Shortly after President Truman's peace proposals tonight, Gen. Omar Bradley, the top chief of staff, will make significant speech advis- ing the nation on how to stay strong enough to insure peace.
 In the speech, General Bradley who made his fame as a foot sold fer, will go all-out for air power With Admiral Fechteler, the new chief of naval operations, reviving the old navy-airforce rivalry in a United States news interview, not cleared by his boss, Secretary Low cit. the Bradley speech is sure to make headlines.
 For the officer who once con- manded the army's Fort Benning infantry school and has spent his life with ground forces plans to warn that the United States must win the air war before it can win ground and sea war.
 Bradley will say that the air plane is still the primary means of delivering the A-bomb both against cities and enemy troops; will reveal that baby A-bombs car ried by fighter planes are more effective than atomic artillery; that large atomic bombs carried by B. 36's are more effective than guid- ed missiles: and will point out that air power must be planned and purchased several years in advance
