$65 Million This. Year, Double 1939

INDIANAPOLIS DEPARTMENT STORE SALES will amount to about $65 million this year, more than double _ What they were the year before the war broke out, 1939.

The 100 per cent-plus gain is the Wrgest shown by any large city in the Midwest, including Chicago, Detroit and Milwaukee, the Federal Reserve bank of Chicago, which compiles the figures, reports. Detroit sales probably w i111 total $186 million and Milwaukee $82, both about 80 per cent above 1939, Chic a g o sales will hit $330 million or 45 per cent over 1939. Since Pearl Harbor, Indianapolis and Milwaukee sales have gone up about 10 per cent each year, Chicago slightly under 10 per cent and Detroit less than 5 per cent. The bank expects department store sales will continue to expand; possibly as much as 10 per cent, in the first quarter of 1945, f J » »

NO DECISION YET on whether Tokheim Oil Tank & Pump Co, of Ft. Wayne will make ammunition in the now-idle Fall Creek ordnance plant, where E. C. Atkins made armor plate for a time, or find a factory elsewhere. Albert O. Evans, chairman of the production urgency committee here, didn’t want the local plant, now used as a warehouse, reopened because it would need 2000 workers. The city needs ‘5000 to 7000 war workers right now as it is. That's not to belittle the ammunition job the ordnance department is giving Tokheim. “It’s a top hot and must job,” Evang said. “That's Just the reason it would be better to take it to Evansville or some other area with more manpower than we have. It would stand a better chance of coming out on time.” It’s up to top Washington officials whether the local plant will be reopened, new machinery put in to make ammunition. 2 ” o

THE EXHIBIT of foreign patents seized by the alien property custodian, held here week before last, was seen by 700 persons, not counting repeaters, 40 per cent of whom were from outside of town. Chemistry and metallurgy were the most popular fields. The Indianapolis publi¢ library decided to! order a set of abstracts of those] patents, plus those in electricity. The exhibit was arranged by Harry 8. Rogers, head of Smaller War Plants Corp. here, and by C. B. Camp, who used to be at Butler and then with the Chamber of Commerce and who is now a. consultant of SWPC at Chicago. He said there | were “quite a few” applications for patent licenses, as a result of the show.

Labor Department Defends Definition of Workers. Indirectly Involved.

By Scripps-Howard Newspapers WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.—Do figures of the U. S. department of labor represent correctly the loss to American war production from labor strikes? The answer is, yes or no, according to the viewpoint. The main point in periodic controversy is whether the official figures minimize ‘the importance of strikes by failing to include all their effects. The officials who have charge of this work of the bureau of labor statitstics declare it would be impossible to make the figures more comprehensive, The most recent monthly report showed that the percentage of total available working time lost through strikes was only .09 of 1 per cent. This figure is so small that President Roosevelt and other high officials have been inclined fo dismiss it as inconsequential.

‘Strike’ Defined

The bureau noted that these statistics “include all known strikes which involve as many as six workers and. last as long as a full day

regardless of

stoppage.” Then follows this important point: ; “As in the past the figures in-

were made idle because of a strike in that plant, regardless of whether or not they were all directly involved in the dispute.”

Who Is ‘Directly Involved?’

Miss Florence Peterson, who for years has ‘been in charge of these compilations, explains further: “There is a difference of opinion among those concerned with strike statistics as to how inclusive the term ‘number of workers involved’ should be, Semetimes two classifications are made—‘directly’ and ‘indirectly’ involved. Those ‘directly involved" are generally defined to

patents issued by the U. 8. patent ew more than 500 a week. This repears are concerned. Last year, which

was considered a poor year for new inventions, saw an average output of 600 new patents a week; the pre-Pearl Harbor figure was saround

800 a week. «This slump in numbers of new patents does. not necessarily indicate a decrease in activity on the part of American inventors and scientists. They are harder at work than ever. However, whole groups of new devices. and processes are not being patented at present, for security reasons. When a patent is granted a full description of it is published, which anyone can purchase for 10 cents. So now inventions of possible military value are simply being kept secret for the time being. This is especially the case with chemical inventions.

Europe Fails to Ap, ly

Another cause for the drop in number of patents issued is the practical wiping out of applications from inventors in continental Europe. In pre-war days most such applications came from Germany, which is of coumse completely out for the duration. Applications from enemy countries and enemy-occu-pied territory, filed before the war, still mature into patents, which are of course promptly taken over by the alien property custodian. Many of the patents issued to Americans and citizens of the United Nations have potential value in the war effort. Others obviously look forward to the great technolog-

ical development expected in the)

post-war world. A few of ‘the outstanding inven-| tions patented during 1944 are: A giant locomotive, $0 huge that

include those employees who initiated or voted to strike, or those covered by the terms of settlement; those ‘indirectly involved’ are defined as the remaining employees who were forced to stop work when the shop closed because of the strike. . Defines Rules

“By others the term ‘indirectly involved’ is used to include persons not employed in the establishment where the strike .took place, but who nevertheless were affected by the strike; for example, an auto-

Travel Predicted

By Science Service

EAST ST. LOUIS, Ill, Dec. 27. ~The post-war personal airplane may become as easy to fly as it is to tune a push-button radio, predicts Oliver. L. Parks, nresident of Parks Air college. Progress in the design and development of airplanes and electronic devices will make this easy flying possible. In the future, reports Mr. Parks, it is entirely possible that a pilot will be able to take his plane oft the ground, bring it to the desired altitude, set its nose in the proper direction, tune it into a beam directed at the city of destination. With the aid of an automatic pilot, the plane would fly on the beam, Such a device would not have fo be expensive since the price of automatic pilot devices has gone

V-E TAX CUT OF 10% SUGGESTED

Senator George Says Would Give Prompt,

Temporary Relief.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27 (U. P,).— A flat ‘10 per cent cut in individual and corporate Income taxes during 1945, dependent upon progress of the war in Europe, was suggested today by Chairman Walter F. George (D. Ga.) of the senate finance committee.

He told. reporters he believed a horizontal cut at the 10 per cent raté might be the best way to achieve prompt interim relief from high wartime taxes pending a general review of the entire federal tax structure.

He cautioned, however, that the time and extent of any general tax revision was tied closely to the progress of the European war and the-aitimate cost of complete victory over the axis, “I think the most that can be hoped for if we come within sight of the end of the war in Europe,” he told reporters, “is to cut back all individual and business intome taxes a definite percentage and then undertake some general revision as the war actually comes to a close.” Under such a program, congress could effect an immediate 10 per cent reduction by a simple resolution. Meanwhile the joint congressional committee on internal revenue, would be expected to work out details of ure to become effective the following year.
