Interesting Bits Of Business In the US. Confectioners, bakers, bottlers, ice creamers and such are redoubl ing their sugar-stretching efforts by changing formulas and other means, since rationing now puts them on 70 per cent of 1941 sugar use instead of 80 There probably will be much narrower ranges of flavors in soft drinks and ice creams this summer, as one result . . . Cuffless trousers are gradually making their presence felt on the fashion scene. A Phila delphia store advertises de-cuffing at $1 a pair, and it sends the dol lar to the Red Cross and the mater ial to the wool reclaimers . . . New York City cleaners are sending cash accidentally left in suits to war re lief organizations . . . Only a little more than half as many women's fancy hose will be made this year as last, and they'll be practically all rayon. Silk doesn't come here any more and nylon's gone off to the wars in parachutes and other things. The rayon stockings will be better than rayon used to be, though. Things To Watch For In The Future A new plastic material, developed by Westinghouse, said to be strong enough to use as the "nose" of both anti-tank and anti-aircraft shells . . A dim-out electric bulb, all black except an orange button the size of a nickel, which sheds enough light for washing, cooking, dressing, etc., but which can't be seen when ordi nary shades are drawn . . . Leg-tlHT lotion called "liquid chiffon" which looks like sheer hose and comes in five shades.

Martin Supply Co. WILLIAMSTON, N. C. Reports From War Production Good Most reports from the war produc tion front are good. The word on conversion of the auto industry to arms work is still "faster than ex pected," with changeover unemploy ment declining rapidly. In fact, F. H. Harbison, labor expert in the au tomotive branch of WPB figures that in another six weeks the auto in dustry will be employing as many as in June, 1941, biggest month of that big year . . Mass production techniques are being applied to many war jobs, with the result that origi nal price contracts are being read justed downward by hundreds of millions of dollars, to avoid raking in utterly fantastic profits . . . Gen eral Electric expects to produce a billion dollars' worth of war mater ials this yaer . . . American Loco motive's 1942 production will be about three tiroes as large as the $73,000,000 turned out in 1941. ?
