vinced OF the soundness Of our

acceptance.
without the Washington

He said particularly Harry

pressed appreciation to Pat

Mr.. Barr, in an address to the

success of Washington's pro-
gram to its bigness, with all
ll8 downtown parking lots and
garages participating, as well
as a substantial number Of
storeS-228; its simplicity, with
a stamp worth time instead of
money, with an hours parking
for each stamp secured in the
various stores and the continu-
ing promotion of the plan here.
He said this program enables
downtown to keep its share Of
the overall growth of the Met
ropolitan Area. Mr.. Barr also
said that because some 80 cities
have copied the Washington
plan identically, it is becoming
uniform throughout the coun-
try.

Lots Of Explanations
There are lots of explana-

over and above these explana-

imitation, and even though
stocks are an imperfect infla-
ton hedge, they provide some
