by the government so far to
handle all three of those problems:
1. Income and corporation taxes
were raided, starting Oct. 1. This
will help pay defense costs and.
taking some of the spending money
cut of people ! hands, hold down
inflation 1 bit.
2. Buying one or two-family
homes has been made tougher be
cause now you have to put down a
larger first payment ana pay up
faster. This is intended to curb !
some of the spending urge, too, I
while channeling needed building
materials into defense.
3. Buying things like cars and
household appliances has been t
made a little tougher; larger down 1
payment, pay-ups faster. Here
again the purpose was to cut down ,
on spending.
All the rest of the points listed .
here were steps taken to be sure :
for military needs. I
4. Kubber Manufacturers will'
have to use lesa pure rubber, more '
synthetic. This will save the natural
rubber suouly.
S. Manufacturers must reduce
their on-hand supply called inven
tory of 32 materials essential for
defense.
S. Manufacturers have been told
to give right of way priority to
ers from the defense department or
the atomic energy cpmmission
which makes bombs.
7. Certain kinds of vital steel
have been set aside for arma
ments. 8. Molasses can't be shipped out
of the country. It'a used in syn
thetics and the government wants
more of that made.
a. Limits have been placed on
the amount of cotton that can be
shipped out of the country.
10. The government nas tigntenea
up on the amount of certain metals
that can be shipped out, like alum
inum ore, copper, brass, bronze,
lead, zinc.
11. Secified amounts of steel will
have to be set aside by manufaet
uiers for the making of freight
cars, which are needed.
13. The government will ban cer
tain kinds of building which it con
Riders unnecessary at a time like
this. Race tracks, for instance.
If, as reported, President Tru
man calls Congress back into ses
sion right after the election, other
steps may be taken. Kenewal 01
rent controls, for instance.
New Probabilities
Other problems lie ahead:
Manpower, for instance. The gov
ernment right now has no power to
compel anyone to work anywhere.
Hut worker-shortages are beginning
to show up in some defense areas.
As more people are needed in
defense jobs the government pro
bably will try to work out agree-

with any other truck before you buy. Compare
engine, frame, transmission; compare cab, axles
and springs sec how much extra value you get.
