TIRE RATIONING
If you are an automobile owner in
search of tires, here is one thing to
keep your eye on. The tire industry
is pulling all sorts of wires back-
stage to lift export restrictions.
At present they are permitted to
export 400,000 truck tires and 100,000
passenger tires during the last quar¬
ter of this year. They would like to
export a lot more. In the first place,
they don’t have to worry about OPA
ceiling prices when selling abroad.
Secondly, they can build up their
postwar markets by getting in on
the ground floor.
So they would rather sell more
tires abroad. But if they do, they
sell less tires at home. And today a
tire certificate issued to a person j
desiring to buy a tire is nothing !
more than a hunting license. He can
go out and hunt for a tire. If he’s j
lucky enough to find one, his certifi¬
cate entitles him to buy it.
DEPARTMENT OF PEACE
When the house foreign affairs
committee heard testimony on the
Randolph bill to create a department
of peace, the star witness was a 64-
year-old former mule-driver from
Morgantown, W. Va.
Chairman Sol Bloom and mem¬
bers of his committee listened with
rapt attention as Raymond M. Davis
read a 16-page statement on why
the United States should take the
lead in establishing a new cabinet
post to spread the gospel of peace
throughout the world.
After he finished, white-thatched
GOP Rep. Charles Eaton of New Jer¬
sey declared:
“Mr. Davis, you may be un¬
schooled, as you tell the com¬
mittee, but you certainly are not
uneducated. That is one of the
finest documents I have ever
listened to.”
World Peace is not just a hobby ! I
with the West Virginia coal man,
though he describes it as such. It is
a burning ideal. A self-made busi¬
ness man who now operates two coal
mines employing more than 500
workers, Davis had made many
speeches at his own expense
throughout the country urging a gov¬
ernment department of peace. He
also has written a proposed constitu¬
tion for the United Nations that has
attracted wide attention.
The state department thought well
enough of his ideas to invite him to
the San Francisco conference as an
observer.
Rep. Jennings Randolph of West
Virginia, freely admits that Davis
was the chief spark plug behind his
peace resolution.
“When I was looking at the rear
end of a mule all day in West Vir¬
ginia coal mines,” says Davis, “I
never thought that one day I’d be
instrumental in having such an im¬
portant piece of legislation intro¬
duced in congress.”
Note—The second initial of Da¬
vis’ name stands for “Moses.”
Perhapt what we need are more
plain, garden-variety Moses’ of
the Davis type, instead of
striped-pants diplomats, to lead
us out of the international wil¬
derness.

BOWLES HOLDS
INFLATION FLOOD
OP Administrator Chester Bowles
is one of the most abused men in
Washington. Everyone is badgering
him. Congressmen demand that
their constituents increase the price
of this or that. Farm groups want to
raise the price of milk or cattle.
Business groups want to abolish all
ceiling prices.
Probably the common man doesn’t
appreciate it, but here are some
things which will happen if Chester
Bowles loses his battle to stop the
inflation flood:
1. Every person putting his money
in life insurance does so with the
idea of getting his money back—100
cents on the dollar. But if there is
inflation, the insurance dollar will be
worth 75 cents, 50 cents, or even 30 j
cents.
2. Every person on a retired pen¬
sion, whether a railroad employee,
a college, a school or a big corpora¬
tion employee, will see his income
shrink if there is inflation.
3. Every widow living on money
left by her husband will see that in¬
come shrivel.
4. Every school teacher will have
great difficulty having her salary
move up when the value of the dol¬
lar moves down.
5. Every civil servant, whether
working for city, state or federal
government, will be in the same
boat as the teachers.
6. Every college endowment, every
charity or other enterprise with
fixed invested capital stands ready
to have its investment evaporate
with inflation.
