District FORD SALES SET RECORD Windsor; July 26--(CP)--A record for the Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited, was established last Monday when this year's sales of automobiles and other vehicles passed the 100,000 mark, the com- pany announced today. The pro- duction mark reached nearly 2% months earlier than in 1949, Frenzy Hits Steel Marts Says Paper New York, July 26 -- (AP) -- The Iron Age, metal-working trade weekly, describes the steel market today as "a whirlpool of frenzy and uncertainty" resulting from what it called slow-motion prodding by the Administration for "painless" con- trols, "There are plenty of takers for anything that looks like steel, and price consciousness is fading fast," the publication reports. Saying that the manufacturer "has not been provided with rules governing the procurement battle," The Iron Age says that "this has turned the race for steel into a mad scramble, with no holds barred." Steel people face a dilemma, the trade weekly says, adding: "What is a military order? Which civilian orders are essential and which are non-essential? Who should get more steel and who should get less? The steel market will keep whirling until these defini- tions are spelled out, clearly and concisely." Military orders were reported slow in coming. But The Iron Age said a sizable military build-up is definitely on the way. Steel production this week was listed at 99.5 per cent of rated capacity, with some mills still handicapped by vacations. Yanks Cling' (Continued from page 1) on four new U.S. regiments strung along a 25-mile front... In the Hadopg battle, a Fifth Airforce spokesman said the city was subjected to vigorous assault by infantry and planes. He said carrier-launched planes attacked the central front. The unconfirmed report of the city's recapture might be the first step by United Nations forces to plug .the gap ip their shrinking de- fence perimiter in southeast Korea. The Reds put the squeeze on the United Nations front elsewhere to- day. Had B -- which they may have since lost ~--they pushed the U.S. First Cavalry further away from Yongdong, threatened Pusan, vital U.S. southeastern base, and gathered strength for a running fight down the road to Kumchon from Yongdong. -Yongdong was lost in the big- gest ground action of the war. Despite these reversals, which drew some pessimistic comment from the front, a spokesman at Gen. MacArthur's headquarters said the battle lines around Yongdong 3 Ft He added confidently that new American strength--which includes an Army division and a Marine di- vision en route from the United States--assures the Korean beach- head "can be held." In sharp contrast to this head- quarters statement, AP Correspond- ent Leif Erickson at U.S. Eighth Army headquarters in Korea said the rosy American optimism of last week was sorely misplaced. y MacArthur's spokesman as- serted a "continuous line" had been established. But he alluded only to the short central. sector around Yongdong--placing the battle line from Yongdu in the northeast to near Yongdong. He glossed over the fact that the whole left flank in the southwest has been circled by North Korean forces. He termed them insignifi- cant and unimportant. Yet these tank-led forces forged farther east toward Pusan by the hour, although their strength was small. The Communists' lightning drive in the south was a two-pronged move -- each led by tanks, One pushed to Hadong; the other reached Hamyang, 45 miles south- west of Kumchon. Kumchon is a vital communica- tions and supply centre for two U.S. divisions--the 1st Cavalry and the 25th Infantry -- in advanced positions, While American and South Korean forces fought fiercely for every mountainous mile on the front arching northeast of abandoned Taejon, the North Koreans were free-wheeling in the south, At only one point was there evi- dence of a battle. A U.S. Eighth Army spokesman in Korea said South Korean marines and national police forces had retaken Namown, rail and highway junction 60 miles south of Taejon. Evidently the Communist columns were moving at night. British and American airmen from two carriers flew more than 100 sorties in the southwest, but reported results were "negligible due to a lack of targets." On the front from Yongdong yielded by the U.S. 1st Cavalry dur- ing an all-night North Korean as- sault Tuesday, the Reds' Eighth Division continued unrelenting pressure, AP Correspondent Don Whitehead reported the tank-led night attack on Yongdong pushed the Americans back "farther than their planned withdrawal." He said the defence plan had to be "revised completely.' MacArthur reported the retreat | totalleq about three miles and was | orderly. Heavy artillery and other weapons were saved.

Speculation on Socialist plans for the next general election indicates that no new nationalization pro- posals are in the making. Instead, a compromise formula is antici- pated. Labor would ask a general man- date to take 'over industries con- sidered anti-social, monopolistic or inefficient. In practice, since na- tionalization now is by no means popular with all sections of the community, this probably would mean that private enterprise would be left alone. If so, a reprieve will be in order for the cement industry, sugar re- supplies and "all suitable minerals." Life insurance, which Labor prom- ised to "mutualize," also presum ably will be left in private hands. All those industries were sched- uled for nationalization in Labor's last election manifesto issuwd in April, 1949. The close result of last February's election prevented the plans from being implemented. A manifesto incorporating Labor's reported compromise formula on nationalization will be in the hands of party branches by the end of August. Final approval of this document was expected today at a | meeting of the Labor Party's Na- tional Executive Committee. Advance guesses, were that the manifesto would contain a broad statement of prigciples rather than any set legisla@@e program. This would be in line with eurrent belief that Prime Minister Attlee is still undecided about the date of the fining, cold-storage facilities, water next vote. 'Inflation' Seems Good To Average Man Says Expert One of the 'difficulties in talking about inflation is that we don't | this know what we mean when we use the word. It used ot mean what happened in Germany after the First World War, when it might take a wheel- barrow load of marks to buy a meal. Gradually the meaning has come to be modified to the point where we use it to refer to any consider- able rise in prices. The concise Oxford Dictionary gives the following meaning: "Abnormal increase of the cur- rency, (for' example) by the issue of unconvertible legal-tender notes. By that definition, or by refer- ence back to what happened in Germany, we do not seem to be in danger of "inflation". "Higher Prices" Is Term Perhaps it woulld be better if we just used the term "higher prices" to refer to the condition which we have been experiencing and with which we are threatened. We have since the Frst Werld War been experiencing what pre- 1914 would have called "inflation" if it had envisaged it. Yet there can be little doubt that the aver- age persons is much better off than he would have been in pre-1914. Even if he is "broke," he is "broke": paying for more things. He is not more "broke" and he has more to show for what he has spent or spending. As a matter of fact he is not so "broke" because people at large have more money in the bank. What it seems to boil down to is By a sort of tug-of-war process, prices have gone up and people have been given more money. It would have been difficult and probably impossible in 1914 to have suddenly established this condition of higher prices and more money, but that is the way it has develop- ed, and people are better off for it. Many Things Not Known It all has a relation to the ability of people to produce goods; but we don't know the principles well enough to say that if you increase production of goods by so much you can increase incomes by so much. We don't know the principles and we are scared all the time that the whole thing will get out of hand and that we shall find ourselves in 8 mess. Perhaps some day we shall ar- rive at a formula. Meantime we have to continue by the method of trial and error, with every one try- ing to use as much common sense as possible. If, given a set of conditions, we try to envisage what they will lead to in two, three or five years, we may conclude that the answer is disaster. If we do, we are underestimating our proven ability to deal with things as they arise. For the con- dition of two, three or five years from now won't come en us over- night, and we have developeq a remarkable capacity of adjusting ourselves to the extraordinary con- ditions of our times. Sunnyside Pet Show Is Big Success At 'Sunnyside Park on Tuesday evening, July 25, some 30 adults and 70 children attended to see 25 children enter their pets for the were all shapes pe ny PCy and colors but the kids were still proud of their t.

How- ever a young lady by the name of Tennic Thoron, 178 Stacey Ave., age 3 yrs, was the winner and a real happy one too. She had a little dog named Pat. Best pair of pets was won by Barbara Perfect, 69 Wilkinson Ave., 8 yrs, who won with a lovely pair of white Angora rabbits. Consolation This was a prize the judges thought up because there was a lovely young lady who had a beau- tiful little puppy all dressed in rib- bon so she was lucky.

So yesterday Quan sued his lawyer for $23,653. Quan declared the lawyer's fail- ure to file the suit within one year cost him the chance to recover Korean War Sidelights Washington, July 26 (AP).--De- fence Secretary Louis Johnson said today the United States' over-all fighting "potential" was greater at the outbreak of the Korean war than at any time since demobiliza- tion after the Second World War. Between March, 1948 and June, 1950, the actual manpower strength of the army's mobile striking force in the continental United States-- the general reserve--has increased by 165 per cent, he said. With US. Army in Korea, July 26 (Reuters).--The North Koreans havé 150,000 men in the field against Gen, MacArthur's forces, according to latest official esti- mates. An official U.S. spokesman said today that this figure was *"ex- tremely conservative." The Communists were known to have eight divisions--each of 10,000 to 11,000 men--actually in the front line besides an unknown number of guerrillas, the spokesman added. The spokesman said that by a rough estimate the Communists began the campaign with 300 tanks. Moscow, July 26 (AP).--A dis- patch from Korea to the newspaper Trud today claimed more than 1,500 Americans were killed and more than 200 taken prisoner in the battle for Yongdong.

Hundreds of local and out of town residents flocked to the Holy Cross Church' grounds last night for the annual Holy Cross Church Carni- val. Brilliant lights predominated the noisy scene and gay mood filled the jostling crowd. Booths of every type and descrip- tion were in evidence decorated with bright gaudily shaded paper. Bark- ers found at every fair, circus and carnival did not spare their vocal cords last night, but did their best verbally to attract customers, of which there were many. The crowd last night seemed to be made up of many free-spenders who trotted off happily homeward, their arms load- ed down with prizes. Children seemed to be everywhere especially near their mother's purses in hopes of getting an extra nickel or dime to try the fishpond, "just once more." The "Bingo Booth was ever pop- ular with children as well as adults, and along with the Easy Money Booth, drew heavy busi The Country Store was a poplilar place all night with a large selection of goods. The Fancy Work Booth dis played crafts that are not ordinarily obtainable and citizens took advant- age of the rare opportunity by giv- ing it plenty of business and taking home many of the handiworks. Proceeds of the Carnival will go towards the building fund of the New Holy Cross Church. In charge of the arrangement committee was "Ed" Harrison, assisted by Secretary Joe Callahan and Treasurer George Finley. Previous to the carnival be- ginning at 7.30 pm. a supper was served at 5.30 p.m. which put the large crowd in just the right frame of mind to have a good time at the carnival with a "well fitted" atti- tude. If that wore off early in the evening a large refreshment booth was all set and took care of the peads of anyone desiring a little extra, Say Plumbing By-Law Ignored; Charge Dismissed "This by-law was passed at the urging of the plumbing trade and surely calls for good faith on "the part of the trade. It. is obvious to the Sanitary Inspector that it is not being observed." said K. T. Creighton, K.C., City Solicitor after a hearing in police court this morn- ing against Edward Wosowski, who was accused of being ih charge of a plumbing job without the super- vision of a journeyman plumber. The charge was dismissed. Wosowski, who .told the court that although only an apprentice plumber in this country he held a certificate from Poland, was em- ployed by H. R. Stark. The pros- gcution alleged that he was left in charge of a plumbing job on a Highland Avenue house being con- structed by N. Johansen and Sons. Sanitary Inspector Harold Slaght told the court that when he arrived on the job on the morning of July 21 Wosowski was alone. He told him, the witness said, that he had been alone on th job "since the day before". Harold Stark, proprietor of the plumbing firm, was unable to tell the court just what work his firm was doing around Oshawa at the present time. They were "working on' 20 or 21 houses in the Johansen project, he said. There were vari- ous other jobs "under contract" around the city. Wosowski worked for him on this job, Mr. Stark said, but he was under the supervision of his brother, Sandy Stark who, at the time of Mr. Slaght called, happened to be away to get materials, He had been gone only an hour, This evidence was corroborated by Wosowski on the . stand and Magistrate Ebbs dismissed the charge.

Labor Warns Reds Punishment Awaits London, July 26 (Reuters) -- The British Labor Party today warned Communists in Eastern Europe they would be punished for their "crimes against the workers" when their countries were restored to freedom. The party's national executive de- clared that during the last few weeks "the Communist offensive against the workers in Eastern Europe has reached a new pitch of fury." Savage labor legislation and destruction of trade 'union rights has caused resistance and unrest in the factories. Prisoners Slain As Bound G.I.
