The Office of Price Ad ministration defines "precious stones” as any mounting into which a precious stone is set, and a prec ious stone as any ruby, sapphire, emerald, natural pearl or any diam ond weighing more than one carat. Semi-precious stones are included in the classification if they have been sold for more than $100 by the cutter. When two or more diam onds with an aggregate weight of one and one-half carats are set in one mounting, the diamond is considered precious. Precious stones are exempted from the provisions of the General Maximum Price Regula tion. And speaking ci precious stones, consider the quinine in your medi cine cabinet. It is an anti-malarial substance that may mean the differ ence between life and death to The Garand semi-automatic rifle, which is the standard issue today for the U. S. army, is superior to the old Springfield rifle in many re spects. We literally need millions of these fast shooting powerful rifles to equip our army. They cost $85 each and are being manufactured at the rate of one a minute. They fire sixty 30-calibre shells a minute. Every one of the 40,000,000 em ployed persons in America oould easily buy one of these rifles for the army. Not that we need that many, but the reserve could go into shells and other much needed supplies.
