to decide these matters, espe-
cially as between members Of
his own party?
Obviously. Republicans as
well as Democrats pay the taxes
that finance the huge defense
contracts. Obviously also. the
White House is not the place to
decide matters of this kind
and yet when one side hears
that the other side has access
to the ear OF the President on
such matters. it is natural for
the fur to fly.
Not long ago. the President
denied publicly accusations that
another member Of the Demo-
cratic political hierarchy-Wil-
liam M. Boyle, jr. - had any
connection with the awarding
Of an RFC loan.
Thus far the President has
said nothing as to the nature Of
the Fitzpatrick-Ne contro-
versy about the ammonia plant.
In the recent discussion about
the use of influence to get con-
tracts awarded, much was Said
about the activities of politi-
clans. In the normal course these
things are not likely to stir at
tention but, when there is sup
posed to be a war emergency
and the public is asked to pay
heavier and heavier taxes, it is
indeed regrettable to observe a
titanic struggle between politi-
cal leaders over the award of a
defense contract. It can only
add to the very atmosphere of
suspicion and distrust which
Mr.. Truman himself was decry-
ing the other day in his speech
to the American Legion.

Silver Streak beauty. It's a Joy to drive
so effortless, so smooth, so quick and
eager.
Best of all, the pleasure you get from
your new Pontiac is something you
can enjoy for long, long time because
Pontiac is built to give you years and
years of pleasure.
Why not make this great day for
yourself. Come on in and buy a new
Pontiac-a truly great car!

THIS is the perfect day to do some
l. thing very nice for yourself.
Stop in and see how very easy it is for
you to become the owner of a great
new Pontiac. It's easy because Pontiac
is so remarkably low in price-and
because we want to work out good
deal for you.
And what wonderful feeling it is to
own and drive Pontiac! IT'S pleasure

RAILROAD COMPANIES

l certainly not now bullish on most railroad
stocks. They handicapped by severe cOmpeti-
tiOn from trucks automobiles and airpanes; their
expenses are constantly increasing from wage de-
mands and the cost of coal, OIL and equipment
while their rates are determined by political COM
MISSIONS leaving little profit for stockholders. Trans
continental roads may do we'll for some time; also
certain southwestern roads: but my favOrites are
the three GRAVITY ROADS. These are the Vir-
ginian Railway Norfolk Western, and Chesapeake
G. Ohio All of these let most of their heavy traffic
coast dOwnhill and have mostly only empty cars to
pull uphill again!
believe that the stocks of all three roads are
safe investments; but will quote only the stocks
of the Vrginan Railway which runs from the coal
fields of West Virginia to Norfolk. More details
can freely be obtained from the Company at A Wall
Street. New York city, The stocks are listed on
the New York Stock Exchange. The Virginian Rail
way preferred pays $15O and sells for 2S while
the common now pays $3.50 and sells for 33 thus
yielding nearly S86.
WATERWORKS SECURITIES
The most economically operated public utilities
are GRAVITY WATERWORKS which supply house
holders with water Why? The answer is that grav
ity does most of the work for them by causing the
water inexpensively to run downhill through the
pines and up to your bathrooms without aid o
costly power In most water systems steam Of
electric power is needed first to pump the water VI
into a standpipe reservoir. But, Gravity Sys
TENS have a natural reservoir higher than an!
house in the city, and gravity performs all the work
If the water system in your community is operated
by a private company, and the bonds or stocks ar
available ascertain to what extent it is being Oper
ated by gravity. Based upon your findings, con
slider these securities as investment.
