OCTANE RATING
OF GASOLINE DUE
TO REACH $3.50

Regular gasoline. with an oc-
tame rating of IS to 90, was pre-
dicted by william H. Hubner OF
the Ethyl Gasoline Corp. in a pap
er before the summer meeting Of
the S. A. e.
"The increase will be gradual"
he stated. Development of better
engines and better fuels will go
hand in hand as the result of closer
cooperation between the automo-
tive engineer and the refinery tech
nologist'
Sulphur content is becoming less
important from the standpoint of
corrosion, but still will be kept at
a minimum by the cost factor in
producing higher anti-knock fuels. +"

The SEC was created largely on
the thin excuse Of protecting you
from losing that dollar and half
YOU may have to invest in private
enterprise. 1 am convinced after
careful consideration, that TINS
Commission actually-through aus
INTERPRETATION and administration
of the several laws-is preventing
the free flow of our savings into
private enterprise and the use OF
risk-capital which we must have II
we are to create new industries. In
so doing, the Commission strangles
free enterprise and prepares the
way for government ownership and
full State Capitalism.
A free flow of savings into pri-
vate industry is essential to the IL
nancing of the present defense pre-
gram. Failing in this, the claim
will be made that our private sys-
tenn has collapsed and that Gov
eminent must confiscate private
wealth in order to raise the re-
quired funds. And don't forget
wealth in this case means equities
in homes, capital levies on demand
deposits, on savings accounts, on
the cash surrender value Of in
surance contracts and stocks and
bonds.
Consider the powerful position of
the SEC Created by Congress to
protect your equities. it impedes
the flow of our savings into pri-
vate industry and Why? Can it
be the Commission employs those
who are not citizens of the United
States and who have been trained
in other countries unfriendly to
the free enterprise system?
March 25th I introduced in the
House Resolution 440 calling for
a sweeping investigation of the SEC.
on May 21st 1 introduced House
Resolution 495 asking for an in
vestigation of the recent stock mar
ket crash. Both these resolutions
are now bottled up in the House
Rules Committee and will remain

lion families-demand action on
them. This is your problem, your
fight. l repeat the numbers of the

ITALY TELLS OF
 BOYD CAPTURE
Ceaseless Patrol Brought About Seizure of British
 Air Marshal

Rome, Nov. 22.-UP)-Italy' $ ceaseless patrol of the Straits of Sicily was said today to have been responsible for the capture of Air Marshal Owen Tudor Boyd, deputy commander of the British Royal Air Force in the middle east
 Boyd and four other officers were captured when their twin-engined Wellington bomber was forced to land in Sicily.
 Italian officials said that chaser planes, forming part of this patrol which spreads like giant butterfly nets between North Africa and Sic- fly surrounded the English plane and signaled that they would pep per it with incendiary bullets if it did not land immediately"
 signaling compliance, it was said, Boyd immediately headed for the Sicilian coast where the plane landed. AS soon as the crew hopped out Boyd whipped out service re- colver and shot three bullets into the petrol tanks, setting fire to the machine before Italian troops yank- ed the weapon from him. It is be- lieved that the fire burned up all military papers and documents"
 One version of the capture had it that the British bomber and Italian planes dueled for an Nhour in the air before Boyd was forced to land.
