PRIORITIES OFF
NEW AUTOMOBILES
Now everything's swell, Nobody
needs a priority any more so the would
be automobiles buyers can queue up
on the left and stay there until next
year. There may be—repeat, maybe—
cars for the ordinary purchaser by that
That, at least, is the gist of a quick
coast-to-coast check of automobile
dealers in the wake of the Ottawa an-
nouncement ending restrictions bn the
distribution of new cars,
This anttonneetnentiby Reconstruct-
ion Minister Howe, in effect threw the
ball at the ,dealers, They can dispose
of any new cars they have, in any man-
ner they wish—always taking care to
meet ceiling price regulations.
The dealers? All too few of them
have any ears,
Orders? Thousands of thetn, all over
the country.
The answer is about the same in
Vaneouver, as is hi Halifax. The
old customer, with or without a prior-
ity but with his mute on the list so
long he can hardly remember it, may ,
get a lucky break, Most folks won't,
Milly—I wonder why a moth eats a
hole in a rug.
Flossie—Maybe he wants to see the
floor show.

amination and treatment and returned

It will be a few days before it is
known whether there will be any in-
jury to the eye or not,

cards of persons who have died and
adding cards for Canadians who reach-

cluded an item of $324,000 to cover
this work for a year, but now it will
be discontinued.
Apart from the official uses made of
the registration the slips were Com-
