car Rationing
Outline Is
Discussed

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5-R--
The outline of q proposed auto
mobile rationing plan expected
to be even more drastic than the
tire rationing program was I'M
folded today to 200 automobile
manufacturers and union chiefs.
The rationing plan. expected
To be made public around jan
uary Is, was presented by Price
Administrators Leon Henderson,
at the start of a session in which
wholesale conversion of the
four billion dollar automotive
industry into war production
will be drafted.
A list of more than S5,00O.-
600, 900 in military orders, COW
ering items which the indus
try is believed capable of turn
ing out, was ready for present
alton by OPM officials later in

No details were made public
on the automobile rationing pro-
gram but it was understood that
it would follow closely the lines
of the tire distribution program
in which sales are permitted
only for vehicles necessary to
public health and safety, for
necessary commercial and in
dustrial use, and for public pas
senger use.
Notable figures in the auto
mobile industry and government
executives damned the OPM
board room, and a few minutes
after the session started it was
necessary to instruct attendants
to admit no one except Secretary
of War Henry Stimson or Under
secretary Robert P. Patterson,
who were late in arriving.
Besides the full membership
of the automotive advisory COM
mittee, these were on hand top
officials of major automobile
firms. These included Edsel
Ford, president of Ford Motor
Company; c. E. Wilson, pres
ident of General Motors; Paul
q. Hoffman, president of Stude-
baker; George Mason, president
Of sh-Kelvinator; and B. E.
Hutchinson, vice president of
Chrysler Corp. Representatives
of Packard and Hudson were on
4 late train and were not pre-
sent for the opening.

cluded r. J. Thomas, president

WASHINGTON, Jan. s-tR
japanese invaders of the Phil
ippines accorded especially
harsh" treatment to American
civilians in Manila and discrim-
mated against all white resi-
dents" the war department re-
ported today.
Speculation arose whether the
state department would seek
through Swiss diplomatic chan
nels to better the conditions of
United States citizens in the is
lands. Switzerland Is looking
after United Stctes interests In
Japan by agreement with the
state department.
"a Domei news agency broad
cast from Tokyo, heard in Lon
don, quoted high source the
Imperial high command rs deny
ing reports of alleged discrim-
inatory treatment" Of the white
population in Manila.
CLAIM PROTECTION
, (Domei acknowledged that all
white civilians had been order
ed to remain indoors but said
this was done principally to
protect the whites and enable
the Japanese to weed out posi-
bic American fifth coiumnists.")
General Douglas Macarthur, in
a radio message from his head
quarters somewhere north of
Manila, advised the war depart
ment he had received reports
from the Philippine capital Gin
dicating discrimination against
Americans by the occupying
Japanese forces, in contrast to
the treatment previously accord
ed Japanese civilians by Amer
lean troops.
More than a week ago Geher-
al Macarthur had reported in
detail that Japanese civilians UNI
American control were being
well-treated, that about 5000
were being protected from pos
sible mob violence, and that
their property was being pro-
tected. He said steps to protect
the Japanese civilians were TAX
en- at the urgent request of the
Japanese consul general in Ma
Mia.
HITS ALL WHITES
The report Macarthur made
yesterday said:
"While the treatment of
American civilians is especially
harsh, the japanese are discrim-
mating against all white resi-.
dents of Manila. The occupy.
ing troops have issued instruc-
tions that all white civilians in
Manila, irrespective Of national
ity, must remain indoors, Under
penalty of being shot il they ap-
pear on the streets. These in
structions imply contemplated
internment of the white popu-
lation of the city, without re-
gard to citizenship. Apparently
subjects of Germany and Italy.
allies of Japan, as well rs citi-
zens of neutral countries, such
as Spaniards of whom there are
many in Manila, are included
in the general discrimination
against whites"
Propaganda leaflets being dis
tributed by Japanese airplanes
also contain abusive attacks on
the white race" the General
said.
