General Motors is keeping a close check on its suppliers to be sure there won't be any supply interruptions before it decides to go back on a six-day week, if then. But it is generally admitted that with one of the most prosperous sales seasons indicated for this spring, dealers are not adequately stocked to satisfy, manufacturers' estimates.

Deliveries of the planes, which carry 40 passengers in a pressurized, air-conditioned cabin, will begin in the spring of next year with 35 going to Eastern Air Lines and 30 to Trans-World Airline.

The two transactions, said the Glenn L. Martin involve approximately $35,000,000. IT WAS said to have been the first time volume orders have been placed for a new model twin-engine airliner in more than three years. Both airlines were known to have been looking around for some time for a new twin-engine plane to supplement their fleet of Constellations used on high speed, through flights. The new Martin 4-0-4 is said to couple unusually low landing speeds with high cruising speeds.

It is particularly suited for intermediate distances and for serving points with airports that are too small for the bigger four-engined planes. AMONG ITS features are hy-draulically operated, built-in steps and provisions for passengers to carry their baggage on board with them both of which cut down the time between a landing and the next take off. inancial Shorts All Good Quality All Dividend Payers Many Under S15 We have compiled thii FREE list of 20 low-priced stock which we consider undervalued.

In most GM plants operate at their present March schedules, some lines of cars may not be immediately available for delivery when the spring rush begins. "Particularly is this true of the Buick "Riviera," the Pon-tiac "Catalina," and the Chevrolet "Bel-Air," line of "hardtops." "We'll be glad, to continue at the pace we have been maintaining," said a source close to top GM production experts. Our schedules for March don't contemplate any overtime, but operations will be normally good."

Accelerate Lightly Bill Stroppe, the 30-year-old winner of the sweepstakes award in the Grand Canyon Economy Run, visited the Lincoln-Mercury Division Monday to see how they produce the Mercurys with which he took first place. He advised motorists who want to save gasoline to step lightly on the accelerator, have more patience with a cold engine, and start away slowly from signal lights. The fast pickup and rapid shifting of gears will likely cut your gas mileage in half, Stroppe said. Racing your motor on a cold winter morning, quick stops and sharp right turns also use excessive gas, he said.

Seasonal change of oil is a must, and exhaust lines and muffler should be changed every 30,000 miles, Stroppe said.

Lincoln-Mercury assembly lines will operate on a five-day eight-hour schedule, except at the Rouge plant, where the Mercury line will operate on a nine-hour day. "THERE IS NO Saturday work scheduled so far," a Ford spokesman said. "But last Saturday the Kansas City assembly plant worked to turn out 290 Fords and 90 trucks. This brought the week's output to a new postwar weekly record of 38,723 units."

WASHINGTON (JP) Business firms registered offerings of $5,333,362,000 worth of stocks and bonds with the Securities and Exchange Commission during the 12 months ending last June 30. This was a drop of 17 per cent from the previous year's record high. The figure was diclosed when the SEC sent its 15th annual report to Congress. SEC advanced no reason for the drop but noted that the fall-off in stock offerings was much heavier than the reduction in bond registrations. Sales were lifted to barrels in the year, comparing to 1,093,625 in 1948.
