Pardon Denied Former'
Congressman Thomas
WASHINGTON, July 24 P)
The U.S. Parole board today refus
ed to parole former representative
J. Parnell Thomas (R-NJ) who is
serving six to 18 months on con
viction of padding his congression
al payroll.
As usual, the board gave no
reason when announcing it had
rejected Thomas' parole applica
tion. Members noted, however, in re
sponse to inquiries, that in addi
tion to his prison term, Thomas
was also fined $10,000 and that no
arrangements for paying this have
been made.
The former congressman made
a direct appeal to President Tru
man several weeks ago for a presi
dential pardon which would cancel
the remainder of his sentence and
also delete the fine.
The President referred the ap
pal to the Justice department.
Because farmworkers shifted to

DETROIT i.Vt Many of the
auto industry's materials and sub
assemblies have advanced in price
recently lo ar'd to its problems.
This is true of numerous items
besides tires and it makes remote
the likelihood of any major reduc
tions in new car prices for the near
future.
More than a few industry sources
a hd beeenex Unpeg lower prices
had been expecting lower prices
with the introduction of new mod
els later this year.
Some informed sources say there
not only will be no price reduc
tions during the remainder of this
year but add that increases art
wholly possible.
The same sources say that oma
current refinements may have to
be taken off forthcoming models
if present price levels art to be
maintained.
There hasn't been any complaint
so far this year about anything
having been left off new tars.
Most car buyers have been so eag
er to get new cars that extra
equipment has been easy to sell.
Delivered prices, too, seem to have
been of less importance than when
the car could be made available.
