of Congress last November. Controls Needed The report, it was understood, will say the controls are needed not only to meet the problems of high prices and scarce goods now, | but to be ready for the additional strains the defense spending will throw on the nation’s economy. The study will be discussed Friday by the President's Cab-| The monthly volume of eco-| nomic facts 1s not for general circulation. Copies of the first issue, out today, went to the desks of about 100 top administration officials. The report showed that per capita dollar income in the first three months of 1948 indicated an annual rate of $1274, or $58 more than last year's. But the catch| is’ that while income went up, prices went up even faster. Hence real purchasing power suffered a net loss, Employment High The report also said: There are signs that the rate of spending and savings is slowing down. Farm prices, which fell in February, began rising again in March. Civilian employment is still high—about 57 million—although the fact that more new people are looking for jobs increased unemployment to 2.6 million in February. That was slightly higher than last February. National income in the first quarter was equal to an annual rate of $215,000,000,000, an increase over the previous quarter. But this was due largely to higher prices. Corporate profits after taxes were $17.4 billion in 1947, and were paid at the rate of $18 billion in the last quarter, a new record.

#1 suffered so much for so long I don’t see how I'm here to tell about the wonderful relief Retonga brought me,” states Mrs. G. J. Leathers, well-known resident of 300 Crumley St., S. W.

I had no appetite, and for a year or so I had to live on soft foods. I felt so weakened and jumpy that I didn’t seem to have the strength to walk across the room and I didn't know what a good night's sleep was. I had to take strong laxatives for constipation.
