War Production Board Chair man Donald Nelson expects to pre- sent the final word to the board next Tuesday. He will be in De- troit over the weekend.
 A fresh outburt of congressional opposition to nation wide, rationing resulted in the calling of a protest meeting in one of the House caucus rooms for this morning. Represen- tative James c. Scrugharl, Demo- crat, Nevada, sponsored the meet Ing and invited the entire House membership.
 0O-Day PostpOnement
 The American Automobile Associ- ation asserting that diminishing traffic was evidence that motorists are voluntarily conserving their tires, appealed for 90-day post ponement of nationwide rationing.
 The Petroleum Industry War Council, representing the large oil companies, passed a resolution op- posing rationing on national scale until further facts are made avail- able justifying such rationing."
 These developments came as the Office of Price Administration en- powered local rationing boards in the eastern rationing area to call in holders of any type gasoline card for personal questioning and require them to surrender the card if it was obtained by mistake or fraud" The ruling applies to "A" (three gallons a week. cards as well as K" (un- limited cards, and 1t was also ruled that K" cards may be taken up if 1t Is found that gasoline obtained is used for purposes other than des- ignated in the application.
 Persons refusing to appear before boards when summoned may be prohibited from obtaining any gas- oline rationing card, or book, under any OPA plan now in effect, or to be put in effect"
 Today'S congressional protest meeting against national gasoline rationing is expected to produce plenty of fireworks. Ever since 1t was suggested some weeks ago that national rationing might be neces- sary to save irreplaceable tires, con- gressmen from states with plentiful supplies of gasoline have been cllamping at the bit.
 Another Outburst
 Another outburst occurred yester- day during which there were de- nunciations of the national plan as nonsense" and "a danger to do- nestle economy" - and denuncia- tions of the "bureaucrats" responsi- ble. N
 Representative Jed Johnson, Dem- ocrak Oklahoma, said the storm of protest in the House Is reaching the ,"cyclone stage. A prominent committee chairman said privately that the.members were getting red- headed" about the issue.
 Scrugham conferred with a group of western and southwestern states members before calling today's meet ing. Afterward he announced:

two billion was paid by highway
users, nearly 600 million dollars

Auto Mechanics
Duties Stressed

The importance OF the automo-
bile mechanic and his job of main
tanning civilian transportation as
a major contribution to the total
war effort was emphasized Satur-
day by c. w. Jacobs, Buick serv-
ice manager, who announced the
participation OF the company's
dealer and service organization In
a nationwide campaign sponsored
by Joseph B. Eastman: director of
the Office of Defense Transporta-
ton.
"a national program OF CO.
operation with Americas war
effort TO prevent n threatened
breakdown of defense transpor-
tation through failure OF its
most important element, private
automobile transportation, Is
under way mOng dealers
throughout the country" Jacobs
said. 'Tt rests primarily with
the automobile retailers and
more Importantly with the me-
chanics employed by those re-
tailers."
Jacobs said that with the new
low operating speeds in effect
greater care must be taken and
more frequent inspections made
of automobile engines and ex-
haust systems, oiling systems and
the like to prevent undue de-
terioration as a result of the new
operating conditions. It was ex-
planned that while the new low
speeds must be maintained Ia
conserve tires and fuel, they pre-
sent conditions adversely affecting
other units Of the car which must
be carefully maintained to insure
maximum operating life.

yond that distance. This is nc
reflection upon the skill Of the
archers. They are the first to
admit the limitations of their

With the advent Of more liberal
hunting privileges such as the

He-Sportsmen
Also contributing to the 1871

history was the lowering Of the
nonresident license fee. De-
voices of the ancient sport today
can hunt In Michigan for the sum
OF IS which heretofore cost SIS,
the same as the nonresident gun
hunter.
The real truth about bow-and-
arrow hunting for big game Is not
so bright, but there's one thing
about this group OF real he
sportsmen-they have all the con-
fidence in the world, to bring
down a buck with a long bow.
