Oil Shortage in East
Carrier Will Be Built
By Dec. |; Nelson Says
Steel Can Be Spared
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The War Production Board has
approved immediate construc-
ton Of a 550-mile, 24-inch pipe
line from LongvieW, Tex, to Sa-
lem, Ill.-to increase the flow of
oil to the East.
The pipe line will be completed
around December l and will deliver
$4,000 barrels of oil a day to the
Salem area for transshipment East
by tank cars, barges and Great
Lakes tankers. Donald M Nelson,
board chairman, said the line prob
ably would be used primarily for
fuel oil. There was no indication
that it would bring any relaxation
Of Eastern gasoline rationing.
Some officials expressed a hope
that the line eventually would be
extended from Salem to the New
York Philadelphia refining area.
A Texas-New York line was re-
quested by Petroleum Co-ordinator
Ickes last autumn, but WPB refused
to grant priorities on steel.
The Longview-Salem conduit, the
WPB found, could be built of seam
less steel tubing without interfering
with the delivery of steel for weap-
ons, or shipbuilding.
Will Cost 40 Million.
1t is expected to cost approx
mately $4,000, 900. The Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corp. will negotiate
the financing and decide whether
the line will be Government or pri-
vately owned. Eleven major oil
companies proposed the pipe line
originally and offered to do their
own financing.
Construction is to start in about
month.
The decision to build the shorter
line, which will require 125 900 tons
Of finished steel as against 100000
tons for a Texas-to-New York line
was made by WPB after a speciaI
committee created by Mr.. Nelson
reported the line could be built
with a minimum Of disturbance tc
the war production program" anc
could start delivering oil within hall
a year.
Not for Motoring as Usual.
'It (the WPB) took this action

said. land after receiving assur-
ances that prompt construction Of
the line will not interfere with de.

orders for the War and Navy De-
partments or for the Maritime
Commissions shipbuilding program.
Mr.. Ickes said the line was not
proposed as means to restore mo-
toring as usual" to the East, but
only to help provide essential Pc
troleum requirements.
Deputy Co-ordinator Ralph K
Davies said the special committee
appointed by Mr.. Nelson would con-
tinue studies to determine whether
steel could be made available fol

Warm Praise Is Paid to Leothernecks for

Every Army flyer who saw the

praise for their GOODNESS, toughness

something over 100 proposals of marriage
from members of the Army. Navy and
Marine Corps And for very good reasons:
Mrs. Judson is Rita Hayworth. And Rita
Hayworth is the young lady in the picture

understanding gentleman. didn't mind at
all. He's proud that his wife's talents can
make life more pleasant for our defense

Rita is 12O pounds of glamor, oomph
and all the synonyms. Despite that or
maybe because of it - she doesn't like to
dress up. She does things to shorts, slacks,
sweaters, shirts. They're her favorite COS
tune. Which makes everybody happy.
OTHER vital statistics - and when you're
talking about somebody like Rita, they're
really vital: Five feet, six. Brown hair.

prevent the average civilian from
learning anything except what his
eyes and ears tell him as to
domestic defenses. Unless hidden
or camouflaged batteries of guns
burst into action against supposed
enemy planes. as they did this
week in Los Angeles, most citizens
apparently can never learn what
steps have been taken to protect
their homes or vital war in
duStries in regions like that sur
rounding Detroit.
