Seems they “just naturally assume”
a Buick is beyond their reach—and
so pass up the car they’re really itch-
ing to own.
Now why “assume" anything as im-
portant to your happiness as a new
car?
Why not see for yourself how de-
livered prices run —how close Buick
matches your own budget —how fre-
quently it is priced under some cars
you may be considering?
Then — if there is a particular car in

mind—sharpen up your pencil a little.
Is it a six—or an eight, like Buick?
If an eight, to it a valve-in-head eight?
That adds a plus in efficiency, you
know, even without the extra edge
of Buick's Fireball power.
Will you ride on four soft coil springs,
as in Buick—or on only two? Will the
drive be through a sealed torque-tube
that keeps the rear wheel assembly
firmly aligned? It is in a Buick.
Do you get soft, low-pressure tires
as part of the price —or as extras?
Will you have bumper guards built
as part of the bumper, or a one-piece
cast metal grille that can be costly
to repair or replace?--

This company is the only paper
mill in Austria . . . therefore, a
monopoly. Lack of capital over
the years eliminated independent
American paper producers;
eliminated competitive news-

over this latest ECA action by in-
dependent American publishers.

From California reports are
pouring into Washington of al-

in motion a full scale investiga-

controlled by a few large com-
bines to the virtual exclusion of
independent concerns.

While the Department of De-
fense, since the start of the Ko-
rean War, is paying 8% more for
needed supplies, on the West
Coast, the government is paying
54.5% more for fuel oil, 12.4%
more for gasoline, than paid in
April ... this means independent
business must assume a still
greater tax burden,

At the same time, a leading
California broker specializing in
oil stocks, released a report stat-
ing prior to Korea the' California
oil industry was plagued with a
surplus of heavy fuel oil.
Now, the report states, the
average daily refining of crude
has jumped from 892 thousand
barrels to 975 thousand barrels;
crude oil inventories in California
have dropped 2 million barrels.

WATER SUPPLY EQUIPMENT
Here’s a fact about the recent
cigarette price boost that is re-
ceiving congressional attention.
* * *
The Marshall Plan has just
given 1,050 metric tons of tobac-
co valued at $1,600,000 to France;
4.640 tons valued at $6,674,000 to
Ireland, according to ECA Bulle-
tin No. 1696. Tobacco gifts out of
Marshall Plan expenditure of $10
billion now total $349,500,000.
* * *
Many Congressmen privately
say, if they had known American
tax dollars would be used to give
luxuries such as tobacco and
swank hotels to Europe, instead
of the necessities to prevent
starvation, they would have never
voted for the Marshall Plan.
* * *
The gift of tobacco to Ireland
seems to especially rankle. Many
Congressmen share Winston
Churchill’s viewpoint that Ire-
land’s refusal to let the Allies use
her ports caused a great loss of
life and cargoes in World War II.
* * *
Congressional decision to do
nothing in an election year to re-
vise corporation taxes upwards
to meet defense needs apparently
dooms all chance of cuts in the
wartime excise taxes. Therefore,
the 20% tax on baby powder;
baby oils, will continue.

Says one solon, “my colleagues
feel irritated babies may cry, but
they won't vote for at least 20
years, while we must avoid irri-
tating big campaign contributors
whose donations are needed now.’’
