Copper and Aluminum Taken off Critical List; Some Bans Lifted WASHINGTON (AP)—The government took copper and aluminum off its critical list today and indicated an improving metal supply situation may permit a big boost in military and civilian production next year. The Defense Production Administration forecast a better supply of steel, copper and aluminum in early 1953. Copper particularly has become more plentiful, partly because not so much of it was used by manufacturers during the steel strike. More Materials Expected DPA: Administrator Henry M. LA to Try Rubber Paving on Streets LOS ANGELES (AP)—The first Western experiment in the use of natural rubber in streets and highways began today. City crews began laying 2200 square yards of a rubber-asphalt mixture at the intersection of Figueroa st. and Venice blvd. Harry K. Fisher, consulting engineer for the natural rubber bureau in Washington, acted as consultant for the Los Angeles street maintenance bureau in the project. "Rubber roads" are laid in the same way as pavements without rubber. Fisher says the difference is in performance. He claims the rubber pavement is more elastic, less affected by temperature changes, less susceptible to traffic vibration and safer. The 5 to 7 percent rubber powder added to the asphalt in today's test surfacing is the same as that used in a road that has been in use outside Amsterdam, Holland, for about 15 years with no repairs. Fisher said. If the same performance can be obtained in this country," he said. Fowler reportedly has advised the Defense Department that more materials can be expected by next April, or earlier. While not suggesting increased military production, he has told the military men they can schedule greater arms production if they wish to do so. Yesterday, the National Production Authority told the construction industry it can expect considerably greater quantities of materials by next April, or perhaps as early as next Jan. 1 for private building. Bans Lifted A two-year ban on building such recreational facilities as race tracks, pool halls, ball parks and swimming pools also will be lifted next April, or possibly earlier, the NPA said. In taking copper and aluminum off the DPA's scarcity list, Fowler said quantities of these two key metals are now sufficient, under existing controls, to meet all important needs of both defense and civilian production. The steel strike, he said, delayed construction of new aluminum plants and aluminum stockpile goals have been boosted. Yet, he said, aluminum will be increasingly available for all civilian uses. The steel supply, he said, will return to the relatively plentiful state it was before the recent strike by early next year. He said the strike cost about 2½ months production this year.

TV Telephone Bad for Husbands LONDON (UP)—The "sorry, dear, but I'm working late at the office" dodge may be on the way out—TV-telephone has arrived. The "I can see you" phone—latest invention of British radio engineers—is a surprise exhibit at London's annual radio show, which opened today. The caller's image is shown on a television screen at the other end of the circuit, and the caller similarly can see the party on the other end on a television screen in front of him. A spokesman for the phone makers said it was hoped that TV-telephone would be installed on the New York-London transAtlantic line before long. "It would be invaluable for high-level inter-governmental talks when people speaking must be certain of each other's identity," he suggested. But the TV-phone won't be invading the privacy of the home for a while yet—the present model stands as high as a kitchen cabinet and costs around $2800. Yankee Denounce In Congressional JACKSON, Miss. (UP) — Rep. John Rankin the last of Mississippi's old school white supremacists and denouncer of Yankees, has lost his seat to his former colleague, Rep. Thomas Abernethy. Rankin conceded defeat early today after unofficial returns from 341 of the district's 358 precincts in yesterday' state Democratic primary showed: Abernethy, 26,903. Rankin, 20,568. The 49-year-old Abernethy was reserved about dethroning the 70-year-old dean of the Mississippi congressional delegation, who was seeking his 17th term in the house of representatives. Abernethy's victory statement said he had been Rankin's friend during his own 10-year tenure in congress and "I regret we found ourselves in the same district, thus making our opposition unavoidable." THERE are a lot of signs to guide you to the best buy in automobiles. Popularity is a good sign. It means that a lot of people have tried a car and found it good. So it's important to know that Buick is today—and has been since 1938—the most popular car outside the "low-priced three." Room, comfort, power, ride are good signs. So it's important to know that you can pay hundreds of dollars more and not beat the room and comfort you get. Buick SPECIAL. Nor, at the price, can you match power. And only Buick gives you a million dollar ride. Doesn't all this give you a hint? Doesn't it suggest that you ought to out a Buick—sample its Fireba Engine—find out how it takes you on the road—feel the sure control tha yours on curves—discover its "big room and smoothness?"
