North Wilkesboro, North Carolina
Washington. — A coalition of
House Democrats and Republl
cans yesterday defeated, 218 to
63, a drastic substitute for the
adniinistra'ion’s price control
bill which would have pegged
wages, prices and rents at their
present peak? until 1943.
The measure was sponsored by
Representative Albert Gore,
young Tennessee Democrat, who
heatedly denounced the pending
bill as a “weak-kneed, piecemeal i
and half-hear'ed attempt to cope
with inflation threats arising from
defense spending. He noted that
his proposal was backed by Ber
nard M. Baruch, astute flnancler
and head of the old World War
industries board.
Opposition to the substitute
was so varied as to preclude in
terpretation of the result of a
test vote on the projected price-
flxing program. The administra
tion fought it on the premise it
could not be efficiently enforced.
Republicans protes'ed that it
would lead to regimentation of
industry, while Democrats fear
ed its effect upon farmers and
labor.

Take a tip from the OUTImers
^T'^K^VEl.lN■G around town here, you 11
i. find Buicks that are still in service
'4(fter six, eight ten or even more years.
It's worth noting that these sturdy old
Buicks are still serving faithfully and
well, for several reasons.
They have the same basic type of engine
as the sleek 1942 Buick - a rugged, long-
lived, extra-efficient valve-in-head,
though it is now made better by Fireball
'combustion. *
They have the same dependable drive
- a stout torque tube encasing a sturdy
steel shaft stretching its unbroken length
from transmission to rear axle.
Frames are fundametitally the same
now as then; brakes, though hydraulic
now, use the same, efficient, self-en
ergizing action.
,\11 the factors that make for strength
and long life are still present -/>/«.«
such further advances as all-coil springs,
Domite pistons that squeeze more good
from gasoline, Compound Carburetiont
that spells peak economy w'ith un
matched reserve power.
There’s more comfort, more conven
ience, more beauty, more value in these
’42 models.
But what counts is that they’re still
Buicks - tough, rugged and dependable.
Take a look at what your next car is
likely to be up against and ask yourself
if that isn’t the kind of car it’s smart to
buy right now.
