"You asked In your last letter about the natives. They are very black, and about 5 feet 9 Inches tall. They, look a bit like the Ne-groes back home. When they wear khakles It's quite a job to tell them apart sometimes. When they don't wear shoes you're sure they are natives, but if they do you're still not sure. In t h a t caae the only way to make sure la to apeak to them. The one word , they know best la "dolla." "If you. want t o b u y ' a grass skirt t h e answer is 'one,dolla.' If you want beads, a bracelet' or something of the sort, it's usually up to five 'dolla. One day we wyrc quite surprised. We came across one native who was educated by a New Zealand missionary, and he had a British accent. He told ua quite a bit about his .home and customs. "Most of the natives wear skirts, reaching to their kneea, but when they can get any of .our This praaaura hlta tbe chemical division more than any other because of .lbs.tight control *bicb t h ^ t j l W - slon has exercised over the industry, and also because of the tremendous future of plastics and other develop-ments In the chemical field Controls are so tight that ho ma-terials may be bought or sold with-out clearance with WPB, and in the course of getting clearance, the ap-plicant must stale .a lot of kttirmis facts about his business, including buying price, leliiqg .price, profit, and Inventories. l b s rest meaning of the comp|alqt~ la that the Industry la not worried sbout paper work so much as it la worried about limitation on profita. Under government control pricea are held down by the fsct that salea are limited to CV tjeeds. .but when this restriction U removed, the de-mand for chemical materials wiU be terrific, and profits will go through the celling OE8 MEETING BET Postponed from Last week, the meeting of the O.
