Aek your neighbor! * Sugar Stamp No. 53 Will Expire March 31 Housewives are reminded by ORA that Spare Stamp 53, currently good for five pounds of sugar, must be “spent” in the next few days or not at all, since it expires March 31, one month earlier than originally intend ed. The following day, April 1, OPA begins the use of ten-pound stamps, ■ with Spare Stamp 11 becoming good for that amount, A. D. Simpson, Jr., Regional Sugar Executive, said in , Atlanta. , "While Spare Stamp 11 will be i good for ten pounds right on through ; September 30, we are hoping the sugar supply w;ll make it possible to declare another ten-pound stamp good on July 1,” Simpson said. , HjY emphasized, however, that these. , ten-pound stamps are not a “bonus” and that sugar must still ho used carefully. He also pointed out that there will be no special stamps set aside this year for canning sugar, ) as the ten-pound stamps should prove sufficient to cover all necessary home uses of sugar, including canning.

Greeting Cards For All Occasions CAMPEN’S JEWELERS International Harvester announces *20,000,000 price reductions We believe there is nothing more important to this country than to lower the prices of the goods that people buy. The American people have insisted that the government withdraw from its attempts to control prices in peacetime. That places the responsibility whore it belongs—in the hands of business and industry. Not all business can reduce prices now. Not all can reduce by tbs same amount. Our company has felt a duty to act as promptly as possible. In our case, the busi ness outlook now makes it possible to move toward the goal of lower prices. The only way out of the vicious circle of Mghsr and higher prices is to break through. We have taken this step not because of present competitive conditions nor because of a drop in demand from customers. Wo have taken it because of our belief that ANY PRICE IS TOO HIGH IF IT CAN BE REDUCED. TOieee reductions, which will aavd the users of our products approximately $90,000,000 a year, will become effective before April 1, and will apply to a selected list of tractor, farm machine, motor truck, and industrial power products. Since we lose money an a few of our products, and barely break even on some others, these reductions will not apply to our entire line. Reductions will be madq indi vidually on products. Some will be cut more than others. Exact details will be announced as soon as possible. Our ability to maintain this lower level of prices will depend in part on what happens to the prices and flow of materials that we buy from others. Because we believe price reduc tion is vital, we are willing to assume the risks that are involved. INTERNATIONAL || HARVESTER "iak" EASTER • !

These benefits to customers wiQ depend, too, on uninterrupted production at reason able waps levels. TUs is not a program that can be carried out if it is hampered by strikes or work stoppages. Our employes have had substantial in creases in pay, and waps questions are cur rently being discussed with many of the unions with which we deal. Stockholders have re cently had an increase individend rate. Having considered the interests of theoe two groups, we are now making thaas pries reduction for the benefit of the third group—our customers. Business, to our way of thinking, has a so cial as well as an economic responsibility. This company has long followed the policy of op erating in the interests of three groups—its customers, its employee and its stockholders. The duty of the management is to see that equal justice is done as between the three groups. This price reduction program is another demonstration of our polity in action.
