Allison Wants to Test ‘V’ Engine in DC-4, To Prove Its Worth in Commercial Airliner
ALLISON 1S TALKING WITH SEVERAL AIRLINES about using the engine manufactured here in post-war air
transports.

Of course, there is the old: liquid-cooled (Allison and | Rolls Royce) vs. air-cooled (Wright | and Pratt & Whitney) argument | which has been going on for years. | Allison engineers tell the airline | people that there is more even tem‘perature control with the Allison and greater operating economies. The only way to get a dollars-and-cents answer is to try out the Alllson; which -is- tobe. done, Transcontinental & Western Air is among the lines interested. Obviously, Indianapolis is on the side of the liquid-cooled side of the argument because, should Allison click in commercial airliners, it will mean more business and thus more | jobs here.

tightening-up along the line In civilian supplies, in ‘much greater degree than heretofore in the war, is forecast by top war production officials. Due to closer control of manpower and materials many luxury items will be forced out of produc=tion. “Most of the time so far we've expanded both guns-and-butter pro= duction,” a WPB civilian supplies planner said today. “But we've just about reached the ceiling, and if the army gets more cotton duck and

Civilian production men say the steel supply is tightening up and that this will be reflected in household shortages of many items, that the: aluminum supply is growing shorter, and that decreasing supe plies of lead will mean reduced output of storage batteries, paints and a wide range of other products. Civilian ammunition, for example, is not merely a matter of game hunting, but of driving out huge flocks of birds and packs of predatory animals which threaten grain stocks, seed or young livestock. The WPB now has stopped production of civilian ammunition and has ordered stocks conserved for essential uses.

The eyes of the nation’s taxicab industry are on Cleveland, O,, today because in operation there are the world’s only taxicabs equipped with two-way, short-wave radio.

Ordinarily, if you telephone for a cab, although there may be several just a couple of blocks away, there's no way to contact them until
the drivers call into the company office, by which time they may be far from your house. With radio, the driver nearest your home is immediately contacted and given the address.

Senator Aiken Intends to Eliminate ‘Red Herring’ In Bill's Path.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 (U. P.) — Senator George D. Aiken (R. Vt), describing the proposed St. Lawrence seaway as “inevitable,” said today he would soon introduce.a bill which would do away with “technicalities” and “red herrings” in the path of the $285,000,000 -project. The Vermont senator was defeated in his attempt to-have the Seaway included as an amendment to the rivers and harbors bill last December. The St. Lawrence project would include a system of locks and canals linking the Great Lakes with the St. Lawrence river and thus providing a-water route from the Midwest. to the Atlantic. It Would also include
Others Favor Proposal
Aiken conferred yesterday with Senator Homer Ferguson (R. Mich.),. who also favors the. proposal, and told reporters afterward he might be willing to submit some sections of the project to treaty ratification, if necessary, to secure passage. Some of the principal objections to the measure have been on the grounds that it should be ratified as a ‘formal treaty by a two-thirds vote of the senate rather than as an executive agreement, which Aiken prefers. Aiken's bill is now based entirely on an executive agreement with Canada signed in 1941, which could be approved by a majority of both houses.
Confident of Fair Hearing
Alken felt confident the bill would have a fair hearing in thi§ session of congress. He charged in last December's debate that southern senators led by Senator John H. Overton (D. La.) had kept the bill bottled up in the commerce committee because of their fear that the St. Lawrence would compete with Missigsippl river trade. “I am convinced that if the project can be debated on its! merits,” he said, “it will pass. But whether it passes this time or not, each time it comes up it comes that nearer to the day when it finally will pass. It is an inevitable thing.” Aiken praised Governor Dewey's recent message to the New, York legislature in which he proposed that the state and the province of Ontario build the project if the federal government does not.

TAX RELIEF AFTER WAR CAUSES CLASH
WASHINGTON, Jan 12 (U. P).—|E
Chairman Walter F. George (D. Ga.) of the senate finance committee took issue today with the recommendation of federal reserve board chairman Marriner Eccles that individuals get post-war. tax relief ahead of corporations. When relief is possible, George said, it should go to individuals and corporations at the same moment. That, he insisted, is the only way to stimulate productive capacity— which means jobs —and- buying power.

told the Commerce and Industry -association
that «in addition to supplying the U. 8. forces, Australia has fed its
own people and sent large supplies
of foodstuffs to Great Britain, despite the fact that eight out of
“every 10 men between the ages o#
18 and 35 have joined the fighting forces.
Pointing “out that many Ameri

Supplies Airplanes
Spender stated that military air. craft are being manufactured in Australia for the Southwest Pacific
aircraft for peacetime ..purposes would continue to be made there after the war.
Paying tribute to the part the U, 8. has played in the war, Spender stated that “without American trucks, bulldozers, machine tools and agricultural machinery, Australia never could have developed her program of manufacturing mu nitions, aircraft, chemicals and other projects. “It may’ not be fully realized, however, that Australia has done a vast amount towards squaring the lend-lease ledger,” he asserted. “Up to June 30, 1944, we had supplied to the U. 8. army under reciprocal lend-lease goods and services to
the value of $550,494,750 and dur-
ing the current year we have budgeted for an additional $357,500,000, a total of over $900,000,000,” >
