Cab Drivers Threaten
Second Strike Here
Over Zone Rates
Another Vacation Voted
Unless PUG Acts or
Unions Complaints

Z Another taxicab drivers strike in
Washington was threatened today
following a closed meeting yesterday
of members of United Taxicab
Drivers, Inc, who voted unanimously
to take vacation starting at mid
night, September Is, unless the
Public Utilities Commission takes
positive action on the unions COM
plants of present zoning rates.
Members of the union, which
claims to represent half of the city's
cab drivers, took a one day "vaca-
ton June "a, Gripping public trans
portation. Independent drivers
joined the strike which ended only
after the House District Committee
intervened.
PUG Move Spurs Action.
Edwin A. Glenn, union president,
declared following yesterdays meet
ing, at 80l I street NV. that I'VE
mean business this time" He said
that cabs would be backed off the
street If present difficulties are not
ironed out"
The meeting came 10 days after
the PUG Cancelled a hearing on
controversial zone rates, which went
into effect june 20.
The PUG previously had notified
the union and second group, Com
bined Cab Services, Inc, that each
would be assessed $3.50 to pay the
costs of the hearing. The union re-
fused to pay on the grounds that it
had no formal petition before the
commission, and contended an
agreement made by the PUG obli-
gated it to make a full inquiry into
the rate problem.
Flanagan Promises Study.
James H. Flanagan, who succeeds
Gregory Hankin as PUG chairman
tomorrow, said this morning that
the commission would take the
latest complaint of the union under
consideration today. He would not
comment on what steps might be
taken.
Mr.. Glenn pointed out that many
cabs have stopped operating here
because Of drivers dissatisfaction
with the new rates.
Union members also asked the
ONCE OF Price Administration fol
permission to purchase new tires
and tubes instead Of the recapped
tires now available to cab drivers
Mr.. Glenn said he felt this matter
would be taken care of before Sep
tember Is.

But in the effort to take Mos

had to remove six divisions from

no time to, bring reinforcement

insisted upon victory before the

Result was that the Russians
taking advantage of the fact thai
Rostov was left relatively unguard-
ed, took this key city. Moreover
they did it just as the anti Com
munists were meeting in Berlin
1t created havoc among the dele
gates. Instead of celebrating the
downfall of Moscow, some of the
delegates, especially the Rumanian
Bulgarian, and those along the bor-
der of Russia, signed the document
with strong misgivings.

Juneau housewives have lately been hearing
about possible rationing of sugar. Nothing official
has been received here about such move and the
only information the Empire can give, which is
printed for the benefit of ALL is the following Asso-
ciated Press dispatch of January "a, dated
Washington:
Continued heavy runs" on sugar supplies will
compel the government to begin ratoning the COM
modify within month or less, Office of Price Ad-
minstration sources said today.
Designs for rationing books are being drawn and
printed it was learned and details of the rationin9
machinery are nearly perfected.
The Reconstruction Finance Corporation COM
pleted arrangements to buy virtually all of the 1912
Cuban sugar crop, estimated at around 100000
tons.
No details of the pending rationing plan have
been made public, but it reported here that
purchases probably would be limited to figure
running under three pounds person each month.
Some sources have predicted the limit would be one
pound month.
At the present time, spokesman said the gov
eminent plans for rationing other foodstuffs.
Large industrial sugar consumers already have
been limited the supplies of sugar they re-
ceived in comparable months of 1910, and this
stricton has made itself felt for weeks at retail
outlets
on the amount sold each customer and in places
where the run" has been particularly heavy, some
consumers have been unable to buy sugar in any
quantities.
Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor,
last December T. government officials said consumer
demand increased to such an extent that a full
months supply was exhausted within week
OF the nations normal 5000 DOCTOR sugar sup
ply about 100000 tons imported from the
Philippines and approximately 100000 from Hawaii.
The Philippine supply has been entirely cut off and
the imports from Hawaii reduced sharply.
Government officials believe increased purchases
from Cuba will compensate for losses from Pacific
sources but the bulk of the Cuban crop will not be
available until next month or later.
From the above it appears there may be pos
sibity' but this is punctuated by ifs s..

HITLER's WORST ERROR

Pieced together from diplomatic
intelligence the story can now be
told of Hitler's greatest error. 1t
is the main reason why he has

Russia.
Chiefly responsible was Foreign
Minister Won Ribbentrop, the en-
ergetic eX champagne salesman,
who has become one of Hitler
closest confidents. Uppermost IN
Won Ribbentrop's political philoso-
