Government Imposes Heavy
Restrictions On Tin Use

WASHINGTON - up To con
serve tin the government has i'm
posed heavy restrictions in the man
ufacture OF tin and terneplate cans.
With can manufacturers using
more than 100000 tons OF tin plate
annually. according to Census re-
ports, such restrictions will divert
much of the important metal 10 es-
sential war production.
Census records show that in a
normal year, United States manu-
facturers produced more than $780,
100000 worth OF cans. In so doing
they used up 1,706.7S9 tons OF tin
plate and 1874, 1863 tons OF terneplate.
Terneplste is composed OF four parts
OF lead and one part tin.
More than 776,000.000 tin beer
cans have been produced annually,
valued at s1S,600,944. Other types
such as coffee. tomator bean. corn
and tobacco tins were valued al
$119,304,021. Under present restric-
tions, production OF such cans has
been cut so per cent and there is
promise OF even further curtailment

agreed upon. and a field goal by
Dale of Wayne put Ypsilanti two

Belleville High School, which pro-
tested their defeat by Ypsilsnti in
the District finals last Saturday,
has been placed back in the COM
petition. Edwin w. Shadford, local
tournament manager, announced.
Coach Thompson, OF the Belle
Vile squad, claimed that the Of
icial timer stopped the clock with
neither order nor permission OF the
referee.
With about ten seconds remain
ing, the ball rolled under the Of
ficiars table, and. as was the GUS
tom when the ball rolls out of reach,
time was taken out. The ball was
called a jump between Hughes Of
Ypsilanti and Goosens OF Belleville,
and Hughes tipped the ball to Har-
mon who dropped the long shot
through the net, giving Ypsilanu
the game.
Although Ypsilanti is credited
with the game, as well as the dis
trict title, Belleville has been
entered in the regional tournament,
held in the Ypsilsnti High School
gymnasium Thursday, Friday and

Judge OF thinclads, predicted.
Although Gehring always desired
to run cross country in high school
he had little opportunity to do so
because Roosevelt dropped the hi
and-dale sport many years ago He
confined himself to swimming and
tennis instead.
After Gaming his freshman nu-
merals in track last year, Gehring
turned out for the Huron cross coun-
try team in the fall. Told by Olds
that he might withdraw from the
squad whenever he liked, he never
theless continued running with the
result that he gained a varsity
award.
And indoors he has developed
into Michigan Normals leading

Appeal to Ickes

The War Production Board has
issued an order stopping work on
projects for 20 recreational areas
in the District, on the ground
that equipment and personnel
can be utilized to better advan-
tage on war work, it was learned
today. Work had been started
on six projects and was between
40 and so per cent completed.
Offcials of the Interior Depart
ment's Park Service indicated today
they would request Secretary Ickes
to seek reconsideration of the
WPB decision which halted work
on projects involving s692 900 on a
grant and loan basis. 1t was en-
phasized that the recreation de-
velopments originally had the ap-
proval of the Army and Navy and
were designed to serve two purposes:
First, replace areas taken over for
war purposes and, second, provide
needed recreation outlets for rap
idly growing population.
mo critical materials were in
volved,' an official of the District
Recreation Board said in comment
ing on the WPB order. The de-
cision comes as great disappoint-
ment"
The work brought to a sudden
stop consisted largely of grading
and involved the use of steam shov-
els, trucks, bulldozers and graders.
Three projects had been given
Federal Works Agency approval.
The first, known as project No. 100.
to cost s235 900, involved nine recre-
ational areas designated as the
Stadium site, Hillcrest, Langston,
OxOn Run, Southeast Recreation
Center. Randall Recreation Center,
Congress Heights Recreation Center,
Dupont Playground and Fort Greble.
Work on six of these projects is
nearly half completed. Additional
work will have to be done to prevent
erosion and loss of materials, 1t was
said today.
I'VE must protect the expendi-
lures made to date against dam
age" an offlcial explained.
The second project, No. l31, in

ditional recreation areas. Plans had
been prepared. but work not started
on this project. The third project.

3,150 Workers 10 Go
To Chicago in Latest
Decentra|izing Move
Shifts Involve 5000
From War, $50 From
Treasury Department

The War and Treasury De-
partments will send $3.50 en-
ployes to Chicago in a new de-
Capitalization move, starting
February l, Director Smith of
the Budget Bureau announced
this afternoon. Approximately
5000 War Department workers
and $50 of the Treasury are in
vOlved.
This brings to more than $4,000
the number of employees ordered out
of Washington in the decentraliza-
ton program which was started a
year ago. A score of agencies have
been involved ,.......
The latest shift is an outgrowth of
a plan to establish branch Office of
the Accounting Division of the Of
flee of the Chief of Finance and
the transfer of the War bonds &C
tivity of the War Department and
part of that activity Of the Treas
urer's Office of the Treasury.
Further expansion OF these &C
tivities is contemplated in Chicago.
where it Is expected the War De-
partment force will reach 1000 and
the Treasury 400.
The units will be located at Adams
and Market streets, in a building
now occupied by Carson, Pirie,
Scott e. Co., wholesalers.
The decentralization program was
undertaken to bring relief in the
housing and Office space situation
here, with the result that employees
have been sent to many sections of
the country, with particularly large
concentrations in Chicago New
York, Detroit, st. Louis. Philadel-
phia, Cincinnati. Kansas City, Co.
lumbus, Ohio: Richmond and New
ark. The moves generally have in
volved old-line agencies.
While the exodus from Washing
ton has been in progress. approx
mately 100000 employees have been
brought in here.
