ments charging conspiracy to main

f1ners were allotted quotas. which
had the effect of limiting the
amount of gasoline which each
could produce.

about organization of two associa-
tions, the Fair Practices Association

citation of California, Inc. The two

2. Yvonne Lucas, SIS Josephine,
social worker: No Young married
couples should start out independ-
ent so that they won't become or
start out dependent. Marriage is q
responsibility and should be left
entirely to them. Their relationships
can't be the same when around
parents.
3. Douglas Gillian, Sal Frederick,
