Meant No Reflection
LETTERS Tells House
Anti-0iI Ration Bloc
Rubber Chief, However,
Gives No Assurance
Of Delaying Program
ey the Associated Press.

3y the Associated Press.
Rubber Administrator William
M. Jeffers assured a congress
sional group yesterday that he
meant no reflection on them
when he protested that opposi-
ton to nationwide gasoline ra-
tioning was being financed "by
people who should know BETTER"
but gave no assurance that he
would delay the program beyond
December for further study.
He was called before the informal
committee after several members of
the anti-rationing bloc - largely
composed of members of Congress
from Western and Southwestern oil
producing States-angrily protested
Mr.. Jeffers' speech in New York Fri
day assailing opposition to the ra-
tioning.
For two hours he was closeted in
executive session with the commit
tee, discussing the speech and rub
ber problems, and on emerging was
asked by reporters:
Did you succeed in pouring oil in
the troubled waters?"
There was no need for pouring
oil" he replied. "Our relations were
amiable."
No Postponement Agreed.
Representative Johnson, Demo-
crat, of Okla, in whose office the
session was held, agreed that Mr..
Jeffers was courteous and gave us
a lot of information"
Mr.. johnson reported that Mr.
Jeffers has assured us that he
meant no possible reflection on
members Of Congress" by remarks
made in his New York address and
said that members of the commit
tee were satisfied with the explana-
ton.
He quoted the administrator as
saying that he was referring ito
some organization which had post
cards printed protesting the nation
wide order, and said Mr.. Jeffers had
told the committee of receiving
hundreds of such cards.
Mr.. johnson declared that Mr..
Jeffers had expressed willingness to
cooperate with the committee in
its study of the gasoline situation,
but We got no assurance out OF
him that he would agree to post
ponement of gasoline rationing."
Did he alter your vieWs?" Mr.,
johnson was asked.
mot in the least declared the
Oklahoman, who has maintained
that the necessity for nationwide
gasoline rationing-particularly in
areas where there is a surplus of
the fuel-has not been demon
strated. 1t is planned as tire
conservation measure.

Evening star., 1942-06-21

Tires that are slowed away ver-
tically -i.e., standing erect on the
tread - must be turned every few
weeks. Unless they are certain to re-
ceive this attention regularly. they
are better off lying down. Never hang
them on hooks. pegs or nails even tor
a short time. 1t is not necessary to
turn tires left on the wheels of car
blocked off the ground.
By all means make . record OF
the serial numbers found on the
side walls of your tires. That will
ut least afford some chance of re-
covering them in case of theft.
The vital thing about tire storage,
however. is worth repeating: Keep
them in a cool, dark SPOT free from c'r-
cnlating air. Oxidation is what makes
tires old before their time, and light,
heat and ventilation speed up oxida-
ton. Hence tires that are wrapped or
covered suffer least from storage.
But if you can drive your car more
or less regularly you can forget about
jacking it up or wrapping the tires.
Tires that can get little exercise"
in the form of an occasional short run
on the car will retain their flexibility
and virility longer than tires left
totally inactive for long periods. If gas
rationing has forced you to cut down
on driving, don't let your car sit idle
for a month at a time while you save
up for a trip give it spin about
once a week. PAUL ". kEARNEV
Evening star., 1942-06-21

If tires are left on an inactive car,
the chassis should of course be blocked
up to take the weight off them entire
ly. If removed from the wheels, tires
can be stored lying fiat - but not
stacked on top of each other. This
latter causes tension in the central
portion of the tread. Tubes not in
shoes should be slightly inflated but
never to the point of stretching them.
Never hang them.
1t is better to lay tires on a board,
off the floor. A dry location is prefer
able. AS goes without saying. grease
and oil drippings are rubber solvents
and therefore the tires worst enemy.

YOUR CARS TIRES
If you're going TO Store them,
here's how to do il right

stores is best; it keeps out both light
and air, which hasten oxidation. If
you can't get such wrapping. the tires
should at least be covered, as they
can be even if left on the car.
The tubes can be left in the shoes,
inflated to normal pressure. Debated
tubes - especially spare tubes left
in boxes will soon crease and crack.

would be around 65o, with 8Oo the
absolute maximum (Which rules out

should be away from air currents.

CITY IN ACCORD
 WITH PLUMBERS
Agreement on Changes in Plumbing Code Amicably
 Reached

Agreement on changes in the city'S plumbing code was reached last night at a conference in which an aldermanic committee, Corpora ton Counsel J. Gregory Lynch and @ delegation from the Waterbury Master Plumbers Association. To meet protests of the plumbing con- tractors against the present provi- sion making them financially res- ponsible for damages for six months after making 8 street excavation, the ordinances will be amended to provide that there shall be no such responsibility If certain conditions are met.
 The contractors, it was agreed, will purchase "cold patches" from the street department and use them to cover the excavations.
 The amendments to the Ordi- nances will be drafted by the corp oration counsel and will be submit- ted to the fun board of aldermen for approval Monday night.
 Plumbing contractors have sought such change for some time, claim ing that the financial responsibility requirement. hampered their bus mess, insurance, they said, could be secured only at a prohibitive cost.

RETREATkNTS IN ANNUAL REUNION
Hon. Arthur J. lilly to Be ! Chief Speaker; Bishop .O'Brien Coming

1 The annual banquet of the Wa teriury band of Mt. Manresa re- treatants will be distinguished this year by attendance of the Most Rev. Henry J. O'Brien, Auxiliary Bishop of Hartford. Members of the band and their guests are planning to pay special tribute to him on the occas- lon, which will be Wednesday eve- ming, May 20, at 7:3O o'clock, in the Hotel Elton.
 : The guest speaker for the eve- ming Is to be the Honorable Arthur J. w. lilly, former Corporation Counsel of the City of New York and veteran Manresa retreatant. He will be accompanied to this city by the Rev. Thomas H. Moore, s. J., present Spiritual Director of Man. resa.
 Father Moore's visit here, his first since assuming direction of the mis- sion house, Is interesting in view of the fact that he was classmate of Mayor Vincent A. Scully at Holy Cross College. The latter is also Manresa retreatant and will be present at the dinner.
 Rev. Cornelius P. Teulings, pro- lessor of religious and philosophy at St. Joseph's College, west Hart ford, will also address the gather ing.
 Joseph Sullivan, prominent in Catholic lay affairs of Waterbury, will act as toastmaster.
 The Rev. Francis M. O'Shea, per- fnanent rector of the Immaculate Conception Church, will deliver the invocation. while the Rev. James Woods, assistant pastor of SS. Peter and Paul Church, will give the benediction.
 A musical program is being pre- pared for the banquet by Professor F. P. Harmon. The soloist of the evening Is to be Miss Helen Me- Donald.
 Of particular interest, too, this year is the fact that James J. Hen messy of this city and Joseph Lynch of New Haven will observe their 26th anniversaries as promoters of the mission band.
