Budgeting pains of households amid postwar cost strain
William Feather notes that budget editors still face demands from anxious housewives and workers seeking to balance after tax incomes with rent or mortgage, cars, feeding and clothing a family. He cites the need to detail every penny while coping with entertainment costs and rising expenses. The outlook recalls earlier depressions as a reminder that writing and budgeting hinge on tightening costs and increasing income.

County Loses Seat in State Legislature
Pulaski and Garland counties gain an extra seat in the Arkansas House at the expense of Miller and Hempstead counties after reapportionment. Pulaski's delegation rises from seven to eight, Guagita to two. Miller downsized from three to two, Hempstead from two to one. Governor McMath proposed add a third senator for Pulaski, but the plan failed. Senate terms shortened to two years, forcing 65 senators to seek re election in 1952.
