This will include radios, re-, frigerators, washing machines, vac-, uum cleaners, bicycles, lawn mow-; ers and many other products sold largely on installments. * Although the government contin ues to plan for making necessities available to the public it is clear that from now on there will be no hesitation about cutting down the civilian supply of most any product if by so doing war producion can be increased. All branches of the government are now in agreement on this and efforts are being made to push war production even be yond the high goals set by the Presi dent at Uie beginning of toe year, j Reverses in toe war have made it increasingly evident that toe planes and ships we can produce in toe next! few months may be many times as! valuable to | us as those we might 1 produce a year or two years from! now.
