AS President Truman pointed
out when he signed the Defense
Production Act. that rate has

So. discounting the possibility

both builders and the buying

And-though this is consid-

"Since Congress will be leav-

Actually. of course, any con-

Very shortly the question will
be decided as to whether June /

it is best to let it run on a low
temperature. He advised that If
I turn it of the fluid will not be
any good when I turn it on again.
Answer: If the refrigerator is
to remain idle for more than two
or three weeks, 1t would be best to
shut it down and have the re-
frigerant removed by q service
man. You can continue to operate
the unit at moderately high
temperature.
