For TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY 1942 Model As Shown Above, Regularly Priced at $89.95 Reprinted From The Newark Advocate The office of production management ig planning to stop all civilian radio production "in a couple of months" and to place new controls over private home construction, it was learned today. OPM officials said radio production would be cut approximately 30 per cent soon and that output would cease entirely shortly thereafter. The drastic curtailment order will be issued by OPM's civilian supply division. Restrictions and ultimate, elimination of civilian radio production, officials said, will not result in hardships because an estimated 57,000.000 sets already are in private homes, laree stocks are held by dealers, and an adequate stipply of repair and maintenance parts will be made available.

An order also is under discussion by the OPM's priorities division. It was disclosed, which will limit the amount of metal available for construction of private homes. Priority assistance now is Eivrn fo those heroes costing less than $6,000 or renting for less than $50 a. month, but there were no restrictions on use of metals. While private home building wilf not be prohibited under the order, defense officials said it would result in "new restrictions and smaller homes." All supplies in the hands of contrarti-rs also would be regulated by the proposed order.

No r.ew restrictions would be placed on defense housing construction. The radio that a civilian can. not buy will provide material for another set to be uted in an airplane, tank. ship, vehicle, by a parachute trooper, or the signal corps. REG.
