 Commissioner Mclaughlin told Mayor Danaher that he was only expressing an informal opinion, not binding on cities or towns. However. he enclosed a formal opinion by At torney General Francis Pallotti holding that abatements can be granted only when a person is actu- ally too poor to pay or is public charge.
 Mayor Vincent A. Scully holds that the abatements can be granted. in all propriety, on the ground that soldiers, sailors and marines are too poor to pay. Only by means of the too poor to pay" provision of the law can the men in the service be exempted from the tax, he believes.
 The mayor, as the chief executive of the city, grants abatements. h the cases of men in the service members of their families must ap. ply to the mayor for the abatementS

SNOW TONIGHT QUITE LIKELY
Ice and Snow in Yards and Driveways Handicap
 New Parking Orders

Milder temperatures and snow to- night were predicted today by the U. s. Weather Bureau. The tenn perature began to rise this morn ing after dropping to low of 10 above zero during the night. This was two degrees warmer than yes- terdays low.
 Tonights' snow says the weather man, will probably be light one. For several hours this morning snow appeared imminent but late in the morning the sun broke through the heavy clouds.
 The continued cold, causing ice and snow to remain in driveways and backyards, has made it diff cult for many car owners to comply with the new police regulation against all-night parking on the streets.

East Indies always have held the United

American distaste for imperialistic ag-
gression and for the many American

prises among Moslems. Here again the
American record among the Moros, as
we'll as among their racial kin, the
Christian and pagan Filipinos, is a strong
factor in the winning of the honorary
eponym of Protector of Islam" by the
United States.
Japan, Americas s powerful rival in the
contest for Moslem support, has long
been most astute in her approach of the
worlds nearly quarter billion Moham-
medans. Ever since Turkey abolished
the powerful Caliphate in 1924, the Nip
ponese have dreamed Of filing this
place with a Mohammedan Japanese of
high rank or a Mohammedan foreigner
most friendly and grateful to Japan.
The japanese had certain qualities
also possessed by the Mohammedans.
Both are fanatical fighters and disdain-
full of human life, whether their own or
their enemy's. Both are rabid patriots
and are devoted overzealously to their
religious leaders.
"a Friendly Approach.
Moreover, before this war IN the Pacific
the Japanese and Moslems had no differ
ences, doubtless due to their limited con-
facts. With Japan uninterested in re-
ligious evangelism, Mohammedans never
had the opportunity to turn their relig-
ious fury on the Japanese as they had
done to proselyting Christians.

Production Board and the Office of Price
Administration. Now it is all lodged with
Mr.. Wickard, although OPA will carry
out the mechanical details Of such ra-
tioning as he directs.
Where petroleum products were con-
cerned, the division originally was much
the same as in the case of food, but
with Mr.. Ickes holding the place Of Mr.
Wickard in the triangle. Now the chief
responsibility is Mr. Ickes'.
Manpower problems presented no
great difficulty for command divided
between Mr.. McNutt, head of the War
Narrower Commission, and Maj Gen.
Hershey, head of selective service, as
long as there was plenty of available
manpower With the bottom of that
barrel in sight, Mr.. McNutt, widely ex-
perienced in government administration,
has been placed in some command.
Finances and Taxes.
Finances and taxes, one of the big
gest fields Of all, has been centered from
the start under Treasury Secretary Nor
genthau. ...
SOltlOAo OSCl odldl ACo dllu wages are
divided between the Treasury and the
War Labor Board. However, they act
on these cases primarily as the agents
of the Economic Sterilization Board,
headed by Mr.. Byrnes, rather than as
policy making bodies.
All these various segments, of course,
form one overall economic problem and
cannot be handled entirely indepen-
IDENTIFY. Factories cannot run without
power supplied by fuel. Workers must
have food. Any major move made by
one of the commanders likely will affect
most Of the others.
So there are various strings tying them
together. For instance, Mr.. Wickard
must 60 to the WPB and ask that it
allow the production Of machinery he
thinks farmers will need to meet his
food production goals. The WPB, in
turn, may ask Mr.. McNutt to ind the
skilled workers to turn out the machines.
Limiting all is the fact that Army and
Navy needs must take precedence over
those Of civilians.
Various boards. including Mr. Byrnes'
Economic Sterilization Board, are aimed
at keeping the whole In balance.
And over all is President Roosevelt
aS supreme commander.

The United States and Japan are the
leading contenders for the mythical but
potent title of Protector of Islam"
Recent manifestations Of Moslem cor
diality toward America and increasing
confidence In the strength of the United
Nations, resulting from the dramatic,
gigantic American invasion of Morocco
and Algeria, indicate that the United
States enjoys the greatest prestige
among North African and Near East
Mohammedans.
This prestige acquired by the force Of
arms, plus Americas longtime reputa-
ton as enemy OF imperialistic aggres-
sion, has placed the United States in an
enviable position in the entire Moslem
world.
In this same world, however, Japan
enjoys topnotch place too. Now con-
trolling directly more than 1000, 900
Mohammedans in Asia and in recently
conquered insular territories, Japan is
well on her way toward realizing her old
dream OF winning a major share of the
worlds 225,0oo,ooo Moslems.
Haly Fades in Roll.
Italy, which once loomed as leading
contender for the title, has keen knocked
out Of tht race. Moviegoers stin may
remember Benito Musoslini's theatrical
figure at Tripoli in 1887 accepting from
$500 Arab chieftains of Libya sword
symbolic Of his designation as Protector
Of Islam"
The disastrous setbacks suffered by the
Italian fighting forces in Africa have
shattered Mussolini's dreams concern
ing the Moslem world But even before
