In a joint statement, Joseph E. Moody, president of the National Coal Policy Conference, and Stephen F, Dunn, president of the National Coal Association, said: "There must be a clear-crecognition by the Congress and the administration that the nations security and its future economic growth and development are based upon a sound domestic fuels industry complex and that excessive imports of oil will reduce this vital segment of the economy to impotency. "Fuel is the basis of our industrial economy and national security. We must not as a nation shift our reliance for fuel requirements from a safe and secure domestic source to uncertain for ut eign sources, even out of a sincere desire to help other nations through expanded trade. The liquidation of the domestic fuels industry would be too high a price to pay." Moody and Dunn said that the various fossil fuels industries must be regarded as a unit in the development of governmental policies concerning the amount of fuel which can toe safely imported. "The domestic oil and coal industries have concluded that when the matter of imports is involved, the community of interests which exists among us far outweighs any competitive factors involved in a struggle for individual market." They declared, "We are cooperating with oil interests in an effort to work out a national policy which we believe is absolutely essential to preserve the domestic fuels industry at a high state of readiness and productivity, able to expand production to meet any demands which a future emergency and our nations needs might impose upon it. chdKt (Ml Week after week carefully tabulated figures published in Automotive Market Reports" show that Chevrolet trucks are Twenty Years Ago Furloughs to adjust their civiaffairs, which will be given to selective service registrants in cases of undue hardship caused by lian induction Immediately after they pass the army physical examination, will be granted by the army and not by local boards, Brigidier General Lewis B.
