If there had ‘been a full supply of automobiles, "refrigerators, and other consumers goods, based on past averages peo. ple would have spent $118,000,000‘000. They spent only $98,000,000,000. The $20,000,000,000 difference . between what they would have spent; and did spend represents in large. ‘part unsatisfied demand. The result in found in savings.

Wage Kates There are a few industries~ in which the hourly ,wage rates have, jincreased less than the cost of liv-, ing. Hence any sharp decline in the hours worked per week would seriously affect the standard of living of workers in these industries. T have asked the Dirgctor of Economic Stabilization and the Chairman of the WLB to make a special study to determine these industries and the adijustments which can be made within the framework of the stabilization policies, which must continue. So far during, the war, improved techniques of production, new tools, and better engineering have increased the productivity of workers. How much of that productivity will be carried over into peace time production cannot be predicted or estimated. When the output per worker is increased, the worker must share in the profit from the increased output. I feel sure that ultimately after the war local take home pay in the United States will reach the present level. But the pay must have as a foundation a volume of production and.consumption of civilian goods equal to the present production and consumption of war goods-and civilian goods combined. Transportation When Germany is defeated, the volume of traffic in this country wi:l decrease only slightly below present high levels. While the transportation of war . products will decline, there will ‘be an increase in the movement of civilian products. Moreover, the shipments of guns, tanks and _ other military supplies to the West Coast will increase, This will mean longei hauls and longer time for arounds. ~ Railroad equipment is barely adeturntalk to the Germans. It was a beau. market. People cannot very well bia. The rompoade Ix 1944 carried 728. tiful country and while he had had a hard trip it was one' of great beauty. His mother had sent him a letter of Miss Helen Chapman’s that appeared in a recent issue of The Nugget and he said he traveled much the same trip as she did. He is a postal officer. PERGONATS Mr.and Mrs. William Kissell of ® Sacramento were week end visitors there coming up to make one of their regular trips to her doctor for treatment. He is employed in war work in the Sacramento area butt is anxious to return here to reside. (Mr. and Mrs. Victor Buck were eaHled back from their honeymoon on account of the critical illness of his brother Antone Buckat the ranch home near Lincoln. Holmes Pmneral Home ambulance brought the sick man to the Nevada (City Sanitarium where he is showing improvement in his illness. Mr. and Mrs. Buck ‘were’ spending their honeymoon at Richardson Springs. Mrs. Frank Joyal of the bay district came to Grass Valley Sunday evening to spend a few days visitin'g her daughter in law, Mrs. Bill Joyal. She is making arrangements to store furniture and move some of their household goods to the bay district and expect to remain there after the war. Mr. and Mrs. Joyal continue to do war work. Mrs. Ed Martine returned Sunday evening from a three day visit with her two sisters, Misses Frances and Jean Pryor, teachers in the Walnut Grove and Lodi Schools, and two aunts in Oakland. The visit was particularly pleasant as she visited with one aunt from Los Angeles whom she had not seen in over twenty six years. ; Mrs. Elva J. Brockob Will be Borne to Rest Funeral services in the Holmes Funeral Home will take place tomoyrow afternoon 2 o'clock for Mrs. Elva J. Brocob who died Saturday morning in Sacramento.

Moreover, the producers who are beginning to make civilian goods will compete with war producers for materials as the WPB relaxes restriction orders. The demands of ronsumers, and their demands reflected in the demands of producers, will outstrip supply even after civilian production has been resomed. Our place controls must therefore be maintained. We must ensure that scarce goods . war effort. Rationing, which now applies to shoes, certain foods, automobiles, gasoline, and other items, will have to be continued.: War ‘workers get preference in the purhase of qutomobiles, tires and tubes. After VE-day the same policy will have to prevail. So far, economic stabilization has worked. Wheréas in the first world ‘war the cost of living rose-62 per cent in 52 months, in this war it has gone up only 29 per cent in a much longer period—66 months. Stabilization would have been impossible without the voluntary cooperation of labor, ‘management and consumers. Through the machinery of the W UB disputes between management and labor have been settled on the whole effectively. By and large management and labor have carried out their no lockout and no strike pledges. Government seizure of private business has been resorted to only in rare instances. As'I noted in my first report. ‘‘seizure imposes on the government onerous responsibilities of operating private -businéss.”I therefore repeat my recommendation that the congress give the WLB statutory power to make its decisions enforceable. Stabilization Plans The VE-day program of economic stabilization divides into five main parts. To keep prices in check so that the cost of living will not go up. This can be done only if the Price ‘Stabilization Act is extended. To establish prices on newly manare distributed so-as to support the! 500,000,000 ton miles of freight. This was double the freight carried in 1939 and was accomplished with only 20 per’ cent more freight cars and 10 per cent more locomotives. The car shortage is serious. Wheat and other grain, metal concentrates, and other valuable freight are being shipped in hopper bottom and gondola cars because of the lack of box cars. The opening of the Great Lakes will reduce the grain load to some extent. However, the rail movement of grain from farms to seaboard will be a heavy burden on our rail facilities. Funeral Service for J. F. Finane Funeral services under direction of Holmes Funeral Home were held in St. Canice Catholic Church this morning for Joseph Thomgs Finane who passed away Friday in a local hospital. Rev. Virgil Gabrielli officiated. Interment was in the Catholic Cemetery. The deceased was born in Forest, Sierra County, 73 years ago. He was one of eleven children of the late Mr. and Mrs. D. Finane, early day residents of .that mining camp. He spent most of his life in mining in the vicinity of Forest and only came to Nevada City two years ago pecause of poor health. Surviving him are his sisters, Mrs. Joseph McDougall of Alleghany, Sierra County, and Mrs. T. J. McGrath of Berkeley.

E. Collins, chairman of the State Board of Equalization. This represents ogn half*of the total fees of $2,031,661,46, of which the other half goes into the state general fund where a_ substantial part of it is appropriated for the expenses of olcoholic beverage control. Of this sum; shared on the basis of actual licenses issued, $3,262.50 will be distributed in Nevada County where $792.50 will go to Nevada City and $1,582.50 to the unincorporated area in the county. Grass Valley’s allotment is $887.50: Collins pointed out that with the current allocation, cities and counties throughout the state will have received a total of $28,966,689.81 from liquor license fees gince the repeal of prohibition. This revenue has been collected and distributed by the board at no cost to local government units as all administrative expenses is borne out of the state’s share of the fees, Basing his opinion upon the provisions of the law under which the allocations are made, the state attorney general has advised the board that funds thus distributed are to be. used by the cities and counties in the enforcement of regulations pertaining to the sale and use of alcoholic beverages under a system of joint responsibility of state and local law enforcement officials. GRANITEVILLE ROAD OPEN The road to Graniteville from North Bloomfield has.been cleared of snow and winter debris by Walter Harbor stage driver and his assistant who carry the mail into Graniteville.

Qne of the points emphasized was that the GE Jet, which was designed jand developed by General Electric . engineers, generates “no sensation of itension or vibration,’’ weven hen it “The P-80 is ‘hot, and it’s easy to . fly,” Col. Holloway said. “The P-80 isso smooth -and quiet that you can talk in a normal voice with the engine going full blast. What impressed me most was the absolute lack of vibration. You don’t seem to accelerate, but rather have a constantly increasing feeling of power. You roll along and gradually gain flying speed. Best ofall there is absolutely no torque. Flaps help on take off ‘because you need a much longer run. jin the P-80 than you do in a P-51, ; but that’s true of any jet-propelled i job.” . i Colonel Holloway again referred to the feeling of great power, which . the pilot e&périences in the plane . driven by this jet engine. “As soon as the Shooting Star picks up a little speed, you really begin to appreciate the power,’’ he said. ‘“‘With the constant trust the jet gives, you still have good acceleration in the higher speed brackets. Once the P-80 is wide open. it seems to float through the air with the greatest of ease. There’s absolutely no sensation of tension or virbration when it’s opened up, in direct contrast to any other type of plane.” 1 The AAF journal states further that all pilots who have flown the Lockheed Shooting Star, have been impressed by its flying qualities.” “Warmup is instantaneous, thrust is available in less than a minute after etarting,’’ the journal continues. ‘Taxiing and landing require certain knacks that an experienced pilot can easily pick up.” Installed in the fuselage of the ‘P-80 Shooting Star ‘between the cockpit and tail, these advanced General Electric engines are far more powerful than an conventional recivrocating engine for aireraft. The functioning of the jet engine is simple. Air rams into. vents in front of the wings of the plane, almost flush with the fuselage. The air flows to the engine, where it is compressed by a swiftly rotating impeller. The air is flushed by the impell® er. to combustion chambers, where fuel (usually kerosene) burns fiereely. In the intense heat, the air expands and increases in velocity. The air and grass then pass through a After ‘three mionths in an English hosvital Henwood was brought out ‘to Palm Springs, Riverside County, . where is now hospitalized. He is. . ty.

Qne of the points emphasized was that the GE Jet, which was designed jand developed by General Electric . engineers, generates “no sensation of itension or vibration,’’ weven hen it “The P-80 is ‘hot, and it’s easy to . fly,” Col. Holloway said. “The P-80 isso smooth -and quiet that you can talk in a normal voice with the engine going full blast. What impressed me most was the absolute lack of vibration. You don’t seem to accelerate, but rather have a constantly increasing feeling of power. You roll along and gradually gain flying speed. Best ofall there is absolutely no torque. Flaps help on take off ‘because you need a much longer run. jin the P-80 than you do in a P-51, ; but that’s true of any jet-propelled i job.” . i Colonel Holloway again referred to the feeling of great power, which . the pilot e&périences in the plane . driven by this jet engine. “As soon as the Shooting Star picks up a little speed, you really begin to appreciate the power,’’ he said. ‘“‘With the constant trust the jet gives, you still have good acceleration in the higher speed brackets. Once the P-80 is wide open. it seems to float through the air with the greatest of ease. There’s absolutely no sensation of tension or virbration when it’s opened up, in direct contrast to any other type of plane.” 1 The AAF journal states further that all pilots who have flown the Lockheed Shooting Star, have been impressed by its flying qualities.” “Warmup is instantaneous, thrust is available in less than a minute after etarting,’’ the journal continues. ‘Taxiing and landing require certain knacks that an experienced pilot can easily pick up.” Installed in the fuselage of the ‘P-80 Shooting Star ‘between the cockpit and tail, these advanced General Electric engines are far more powerful than an conventional recivrocating engine for aireraft. The functioning of the jet engine is simple. Air rams into. vents in front of the wings of the plane, almost flush with the fuselage. The air flows to the engine, where it is compressed by a swiftly rotating impeller. The air is flushed by the impell® er. to combustion chambers, where fuel (usually kerosene) burns fiereely. In the intense heat, the air expands and increases in velocity.
