The man. 'postwar demand for heavy goods Many people have "Sure," said the doctor. "OK, then," said the salesman, "in my book, that's an old Icebox." And the doctor got $100 for his cake tin. Other deals have seen an old radio cabinet, minus radio, used as a $160 down payment on a new electric range, and a shoe box full of the insides of an old radio -used as a $231 allowance on a new 20-inch television set. THERE HAVE been price cuts on other items besides electrical appliances. Furniture, clothing and carpets are a few that have been drastically reduced during the cur rent business attack on consumer reluctance to buy. ha. been filled exhausted their wartime savings. Manufacturers are turning out more than the demand. Retailers have heavy inventories, the result or scare buying. this condition, which existed during the winter, first brought drastic price cuts. Even these failed to make the consumer spend, because down payments were still high. Then came the trade-in brain storm, and now everybody in Toronto is getting into the act. fcvery.body except the junkmen; people aren't throwing anything away any more. v Jet Ace Has Praise U.S. Pilots, Planes ROBERT VERMILLION i liiKlltll Frtu SUII Writer KY0-(UP)-American Sab-I is have "perfect control" of Korean skies from the Yalu south and are only afraid Immunist MIG-15s will quit If, the world's newest jet id Saturday. it.

He said there was "only one place- irom which the Reds could draw experienced pilots. Moore did not mention Russia but high Air Force oficers in Korea have said Soviet pilots may fly some oi the Mius. He said the new F-86 was the best lighter over Korea but ad- mitted that perfomance of the Reds' new "type 15" startled Am. ericans the first time they saw it put on speed. So far few of the new type planes have been sighted. One was damaged. Moore said he believes the Reds made a "couple" of tries to drive the Sabres out of North Korea. "But that was when we had our good days," he said. "After that, they usually don't fly much for a while. One time we were even afraid they weren't going to come up any more. "LOTS OF TIMES we chase them to the Yalu river and they're really driving to get across where we can't hit them. If the aYlu wasn't there there wouldn't be any MIGs at all." The Sabre pilots, he said, can see the MIGs sitting safely on air fields just across the river and often watch them training with aerobatics over Manchuria. "But we really have trouble getting them to come up. We've told officers they were "ready to join the Texas army in Korea." Sergeant Carl and Privates First Class Donald, Anthony and Ber nard Perricone had been together since they entered the service in January, 1951. But a few weeks ago, when they were stationed at Fort Benning, Ga., Carl received his overseas orders. The others did not, THEY PROMPTLY appealed to the Army. "We don't want any favors," they said, "but we want to be to gether when we go overseas." But their requests apparently became sidetracked while going through channels. At any rate, noinmg Happened. The soldiers wrote a letter ex plaining the situation to their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Per ricone. They, in turn, notified their congressmen. About a week later, the brothers received over seas orders and a 15-day furlough. OFFICERS at Fort Lawton said they would never have realized the men were quads if it hadn't been for identification papers. The brothers differ greatly in appear ance, and range from five feet, six incnes to six leet, one Inch in height. Born Oct. 31, 1029, the brothers became known as the "A. B. C. D." quads because their first-name initials are of those letters. ,e fit.a a Hau fnt all nf Itretmn 1 t i itru: , All HIIU Ual I, Ul V aMIlllglUJl. mi branches are now trying to get advance committments from June high school graduates, THE AIR FORCE, which with its glamor and low casualty rate already has the recruiting edge, will get a boost later this month from a big group of the nation s merchants. The National Retail Drygoods Assn. has decided to make April 19-26 "Air Force Recruiting Week." Stores will set up displays of recruiting information, uni forms, equipment, etc. The theme will be '"Shere is a future for you in your global U. S. Air Force." Several local stores have Indicated they will participate. Its vacation time already at local ORC headquarters. Lt, Col. Ernest E. Norris, In charge, left Monday with his wife to visit friends in California and Mexico, for three weeks. The Air Force high brass should have been on vacation rather than taking time out to shuffle enlisted ratings. UNTIL THE first of this month the Air Force prided Itself on re sisting the tendency to replace old-time ranks with .Boy Scout type ratings. Then April 1 an or der changed buck sergeants to air men first class, corporals to air men second class, privates ilrst class to airmen third .class, and privates to basic airmen.

The name changes were apparently considered essen tial to this purpose. As a result the Air Force now joins the Army and the Navy in defying a laymen s understanding. Pfc. John Bucko is now John Bucko, A3c (airman third class). The Air Force isn't through changing. Several years ago the brass turned the stripes upside down. Next year they plan to change the shape of the stripes for their new "class" ranks.
