Their forecasts are liberally qualified with "ifa," "ends," "but. and "on the other hand." For the trend of business activity general was proly Is quite different than phesied a few months back. Tin spring1 slump was expected What was not expected was its severity worst in our recent history. On top of that, the expected signs of betterment have not appeared in par tlcular force. War buying is an im portant bullish factor in only a limit ed number of industries. The result to, according to Paul Mellon, thtit the guesses of even the government experts "run on the pessimistic side." Ttv? Federal Reserve Board index of industrial production, which came dofie to the 130 mark during last winter's sharp upward movement, fell to around 104 in March. And the forecast is that it will drop to 100 and perhaps below by the time May ends. Then, the forecasts continue, a new upturn should set in, but few are willing' now to gamble that it will be as d as strong, as steep or as wna forecast two or three months ago. Tome business briefs of interest follow: OTEKL: There was a al decline in production lately. And that leads to the belief that a rise in production may be expected soon, due to the fact that production has been lagging behind consumption. Dally February output was about 104,000 tons, whereas daily con0 sumption in the same period was tons. LUMBER: Demand has been fairly good, and operations have been at about the expected level. Orders for h.'irdwond flooring have been especially good. CONSTRUCTION: Has shown mod crate increases. Summer almost always brings substantial new building ind that is expected as usual this yeer. Big activity is still in the field, due to FHA guarantees of heavy loans to the builder. Xlie business annalists t & ii v h V ! v.. r VJ "t.

The resignation then became in evitable. Reynaud, the new Premier, is believed to favcr a more aggres sive war policy. In England, opposition to the Chain-- 1 berlain leadership grows. It is be- lieved in some influential quarters that the Allies' edge may be slipping with the passage of time, and that decision blow should be struck. At the same time, equally qualified experts are still convinced that the British blockade will be successful, that Russia will not be of significant aid the Reich, and that time works with the Allies. There seems little chance at present that Mr, Chamberlain will be forced out. And the recent increas ed activity of the British fighting forces, characterized by the air raid on the German seaplane base, has proven highly popular with the Brit coru'i-denc- building is also anticipated. fSLECTRIC POWER: Output is high, and the Industry, according to reliable reports, plans on considerable ncptuislon and new construction this jnw.

Cold of worn-ou- t weather choking and "sweating" cause condensation of moisture in the engine. Normally this moisture is thrown off by crankcase ventilation but in short winter dashes the car frequently fail3 to warm up enough to produce evaporation. Then the water passing into the crankcase dilutes the oil and forms sludge. Wise motorists will have this sludge flushed out before refilling the crankcase with summer oil. Spring lubrication should include the replacement of the transmission lubricant with the proper summer grade. The chassis should be thorough e ly lubricated and the acwinter of the car cleaned of its cumulation of road dirt and salt. The gear lubrication in the special differential should be changed every 10,000 miles. Spring is a good time to get at this. Comes next the cooling system. If e solution now in the the car contains an arti-ruagents. service engineers say that flush ing may not be necessary. However, if there is evidence of rust, oil, etc., (a good test is touching your fingertip to the inside of the radiator cap), then it is better to play safe and flush the system. If you have been using a high opening ttoermostate to get the most out of your heater, it should be replaced with a regular low opening thermog stat. This will avoid in the hot weather to come. Inspect the radiator hose for deter- ioration. Replace if it is worn. Rust is the great enemy of a cooling sys- tern. Battle it with regular flushing, and the use of the rust inhibitor. Mechanical perfection demands thor ough cleaning of the carburetion and ignition systems. Modern motor testing equipment offers an inexpensive way of determining just what is required in each particular case. Cars are operated under varying conditions and rarely need the exactly same service to put them back into good condition. The battery should be checked and the carbuertor air cleaner washed out. The air filter in the crankcase venti- under-camag- ? ish people as a whole. Whether the relative quiet of Germany's fighting arms is the pence before the storm, is a matter of conjecture. Hitler has been talking "blitzkrieg" so long without acting, that some observers have become convinced it is mainly bluff. On the other side of the fence the those who remain convinced that Germany will shoot her bolt before long thai she must, it being her only chance Objective would be to destroy Allied docks, power plants, transportation, warehouses, as well as munitions depots and air fields. In the meantime, more and more are saying that no one will or can win this war that it will prove a disastrous stalemate for all concerned. Hitler himself has said that in modern war there can be no winners only losers. And in that opinion he is joined by thinking people in all countries of the world. i BOTH WELL 1 Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Nichols were in Salt Lake City Monday. : Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Allen, Hope and Glen spent Thursday in Ogden.
