WASHINGTON. July Il - Major
readjustment of the entire scheme
of distribution for petroleum pro-
ducts to The south and east is one
of the principal problems involved
in preventing serious shortage of
fuel oil and gasoline in that area.
When the representatives of the
major oil companies met in Wash
ington to work out their problem
with Ralph X. Davies, deputy Pc
troleum co-ordinator for national
defense. they are supposed to have
laid all their cards on the table.
There were representatives of about
IS billion worth of oil capital,
Standards Parish, Suns Pew, Sin
clair'S own Sinclair. Phillips own
Phillips. Cuffs ane Unioon Drake
boys. and all the res.
But there were SO many divergent
points of view, because any one
solution might work a hardship on
many of the competing companies,
that there was only one real out :.
Davies had to take all the recon-
mendations and all the objections,
pray over them. and hope to come
up with a solution that would do the
most good to the greatest number,
and work hardships on the fewest.
It was thankless self-imposed as
signment. but the oil men would
probably all be there yet if they
had had to work out their own
salvation.

Every motion picture critic has a vision of some day encountering screen epic which is a picture so perfect that it beggars all superla- tives, so outstanding that it defies description. Such a picture is Gone With the Wind" currently showing at the Loew Poh theater for linn tied engagement. The current showing presents the picture in its complete frll-length version-noth- ing cut but the price.
 Most films have highlights on which to concentrate. Gone With the Wind" has so many that a re- viewer is mentally handcuffed. It is one supreme composite highlight the entire picture, from the irn- pressive presentation of the title, to the last pictorially inspiring fade out. It is truly the greatest picture ever made and, since it follows so faithfully Margaret Mitchell's story of the Old South that one is left wondering how it was ever achieved, it must follow that Miss Mitchell $ story must be the Great American Novel.
 The whole world felt that Clark Gable was the perfect Rhett But Ter. He is, and gives his greatest

STATE

If you intend to see the double hit bill currently at Warmers State theater you'll have to hurry as per formances tomorrow positively con- clude its engagement. Headlining the bill is the new comedy Honey moon For Three" co-Starring Ann Sheridan and George Brent; and on the same show is the murder mystery drama "The Case of the Black Parrot" with William Lundi- gan, MariS Wrixton, and big cast of other favorites.
 With Sabu, Conrad Veidt, June Justin heading a cast of thou sands, Alexander Korda's mighty technicolor spectacle, 'The Thief of Bagdad," comes to the State on Wednesday as the headliner of the double smash show.
 This picture, which was nearly two years in the making, was photo graphed entirely in natural color and represents an outlay of more than $2O0, 0,000 900. Started before the war, and completed in Americas Grand Canyon, "The Thief of Bag dad" is said to be marked for a place among the film achievements of all time.
 In addition to it's romantic love story, its vast canvas of pictorial sweep and color, its Arabian nights magnificence, this new Korda pro duction is highlighted by new kind of photography which brings to the screen for the first time an impres- sive array of magic devices.
 As the story unfoldS in the East ern cities of Bagdad and Basra and focuses or the exciting romance of the Prince of Bagdad and the willy magician Jaffar engage i'll a thrilling battle of wits and magic.
 Thus there is seen on the screen the great Flying Horse, which scars through the clouds with remark able ease; the Enchanted City, which rises miraculously from the ground snd reveals hundreds of gloriously colored tents grouped around a lake of eerie brilliance; the Djinni, who is freed from a tiny bottle and becomes as high as the highest mountain, towering over the beautiful city of Bagdad; the Black Galleon, mystery ship of the wicked Jaffar, with its huge red sails and an eye, six feet in diameter, painted

It con- tinuously studied the condition of the Connecticut market and when necessary advised the Milk Admin istrator of the attitude of milk pro- ducerS when changes were under consideration. The report disclosed that during 1940 the condition Of the Connecticut market was mod erately healthy but warned that producers should organize and keep in close touch with developments in order to insure receiving SatiS- factory price for their product. The Council took an active part in op- posing the portion of the New York federal marketing order which 1t felt would result in the dumping of New York cream in such a manner as to lower Connecticut cream milk prices through lowering prices in the Boston market, upon which Connecticut cream milk prices are based.
 The Council also has been work ing to secure more equitable haul age rates for the producers milk. It has conferred with representa- tives of other farm organizations whenever occasion demanded.
