Transportation. The State High
way Traffic Advisory Committee
asks each vehicle owner to budget
his driving on the following basis:
Even synthetic rubber for tires
Will not be available before July
l94o-therefore the rubber on your
tires today must last at least three
years and perhaps longer. Estimate
the number of miles your tires have
left-divlde by three to give you
the number of miles you may drive
between now and year from now.
Set a quota for each months neces-
sary driving. Keep accurate rec
ords of the mileage you drive and
do not exceed the quota you have
set for yourself.
An ingenious driver will discover
ways to save his quota. First of all,
he will rule out every trip that is
not vital. He will arrange to give
rides to neighbors taking the same
route SO that he may ride with them
on some of the trips while his car
rests.
Careful driving will increase your
quota. Speeds less than 40 miles
per hour use far less rubber. Equal
lied brakes prevent excess wear
on any of the tires. Careful stopping
guarantees many miles that other
wise would have gone up in skids.
Careful parking prevents sidewall
scuffing. Cross-sWitching tires, in
GLIDING the spare, every few thou
sand miles gives maximum mileage
on all wheels. Careful considera-
ton of these hints will increase
your quota for later years. After
one year, again appraise the amount
of miles left in your, tires. If you
have followed a Well-designed con-
servation program, there will be
more mileage left for the remain
ing two years than was set up for
the same time by the first quota

Poll Of u. ). Worker
Families Shows Need
OF Child Day-Care
Mothers Of Pre-SchooI
Children See Problem
As War Job Hundicup
By SUSAN B. ANTHONY III.

The need for day nurseries to
care for pre-school children OF
Washington working mothers who
otherwise may have to give up their
war jobs is statiSticaIy borne out
by a survey of the problem at the
Civil Service Commission Offices,
made public today.
Almost half of the parents QueS-
toned in the poll which was made
by three unions and one auxiliary of
Federal workers at the commission,
declared that they were not salts
fled with present arrangements of
caring for their small children. OF
this number more than half stated
that they wanted nurseries, in pref
erence to maid or other care.
Of the 129 families answering the
ouestionnaire, so had servant to
care for the children at present,
but the majority of this group said
in effect, maid service isn't de-
pendable." Most dissatisfied Of the
mothers were four who are sep
arated from their youngsters, being
forced to leave them in other States
because of inadequate child care
facilities in the District.
Babies Constitute Problem.
A major problem, according to the
survey, is not only care of 2-to-5-
year-old children, but care for those
under 2. There were so of these
babies whose care was giving their
working mothers considerable worry.
IF the nurse quit l might have to
resign. I have no way of knowing
whether she will stay" Such state
ments were common.
One father answered that his wife
"is remaining at home to care for
our 6-month-old daughter. While
my wife has never been employed
by the Government, she is typist
and is on Civil Service registers. If
some plan for efficient and reliable
care of our daughter worked out it
might become possible for her to
accept a typist position and do her
bit for the war effort"
Parents whose relatives are caring
for the babies expressed grave doubts
that this arrangement would con-
tinue long. Either grandmother's
health is not so good. or sister who
had cared for the baby is taking
war job.
Ten in Nursery Schools.
Although 33 families expressed
desire for nursery care for their pre-
school children, only 10 of the l40
children of parents questioned are
in nursery school. OF these 10. two
parents expressed dissatisfaction
with existing schools, either because
of lack of transportation to and
from home for the children or the
high cost of the schools.
In answer to the question, How
much would you be able to pay per
month for care of each child?" the
median reply was $40 month.
Twenty parents gave this figure out
Of rs answering, 18 families said
Evening star., 1942-06-25

they would pay $50, IA said SIS. 4
said they would pay $50. but didn't
indicate whether that was for maid
service or a nursery school. One
parents said he would pay what
ever it cost"
The QUESTIONABLE was tabulated
by the Emergency Committee for
the Day Care of Young Children.
The planning, printing and dis
tribution was done by csc locals
of the United Federal Workers, the
National Federation of Federal EN-
ployes, the American Federation of
Government Employees and the
Woman's Auxiliary of the United
Federal Workers. The groups plan
to use the survey as basis for re-
questing funds under the District
Housing Act for day-care centers
for children of working mothers.
Having completed the survey at the
commission. they will endeavor to
poll other war agencies in the Dis
trict.

Mr.. Fong wrote that President
Roosevelt evidently had this posi-

radio address April % that ways

Dutch Warned
Of Big Raids
Allies Mop Series
Of Sewage Blows

LONDON, Oct. 10 (R Al
lied bombers intend to disor-
ganize the Nazi transportation
system in Holland, by smashing
at railroad yards and canal ship
ping, the Netherlands govern
ment-in-exile warned the home
population last night as the
lightning like Raj raid on the
Schneider Armament Works in
Occupied France emphasized
anew the tremendous power and
possibilities of the Allied air
arm.
Dutch railway workers were
warned to stop work immed-
lately when air alarms sounded
and civilians were advised not to
use railway trains during the
evening hours.
1.-THE German transportation
system is overworker, with the
result that weak spots have de-
veloped in the enemy's war or
ganization," the broadcast state
ment of the government-in-exile
said. "The Allies know these
weak spots. They must strike as
hard as they can to hasten the
end of the war;"
The warning said that Grains
standing on railway sidings dur
ing evenings and nights are like
ly to be bombed" and that
freight trains also would be
bombed by daylight whenever
reconnaissance was po ssible.
Barges and other vessels as ca
mails and rivers will be attacked
by fighter planes.
The statement acknowledged
that the attacks would increase
the difficulties Of the home pop
ulation, but said it was counting
on approval of the measures and
added: "The Allies will, of
course, spare the civilian popula-
ton as much as possible"
Saturdays flight of "a heavily
loaded Raj Lancaster bombers
to the Schneider Works at Le-
Creusot, occupied France, and
the precise and devastating sew
en-minute attack on that import
ant target was discussed enthusi-
iastically here today as a new ad-
vance in Allied bombing tech
nique.

l9-(R-Deputies, highway pa
trolmen and state guardsmen of
Mississippi, where three Ne
groes have been lynched in the
past week, today continued
search for an accused Negro
slayer to give him, in words of
the governor, "The benefit of a
fair and impartial trial"
Two companies of the state
guard were sent by Gov. Paul B.
johnson to augment the 100
armed officers and deputized
citizens who yesterday were
combing Copiah county in search
of John A. Catchings, wanted in
connection with the Staying of
Chief Deputy John M. Box.
II believe there are enough
troops to handle the situation
that might arise" the governor
said in jackson. "I'm doing ev-
erything I can to locate that Ne
gro murderer and to see that he
il protected after capture and
placed in a safe Jail and given
the benefit of a fair and impair
tial trial as would be given to
any Negro charged with MUIR
der"
Deputy Sheriff Robert T.
Picking said Catchings shot Box
through the heart when Box and
Picking tried to arrest the Ne
gro Saturday on an illicit liquor
charge.
