RATIONING

President Roosevelt, in letters
to Rubber Director LETTERS and
Price Administrator Henderson,
stated we must do everything Wi
thin our power to see that the
mileage rationing program starts
December first because victory
must not be delayed through fail
ure to support our fighting forces.
Expanded passenger car tire and
tube quotas for December to meet
the needs in the first month of
mileage rationing the plan under
which virtually all passenger cars
become eligible to apply for ne
eded recapping services or repla-
cement tires, were announced by
the Office of Price Administration.
Rubber Director letters stated
that unless tires are conserved in
the u. S. by nationwide gasoline
rationing until synthetic rubber
production gets into full swing in
1914, the United Nations rubber
stockpile will be reduced to consi-
derably below the point of reason
able safety. In 1943, there will
only be 80 million tires, including
recaps, available for automobile.
compared with a normal demand
of 48 million million tires. IF all
goes we'll, Mr.. letters said, we
should be able to allocate impor-
tant quantities of rubber for the
manufacture of civilian tires in the
early months of 1914 Thus if there
is no hitch in the program, we
should be able in June 1914, to re-
place in large measure the auto
mobile tires now in use on the
27 million passenger cars and the
million trucks operating in the
United States
The Office of Civilian Defense
said that beginning November 30
2 million Civilian Defense Block
Leaders will swing into action to
carry on a coordinated national
campaign, the Governments Share
the Meat Plan to every city town
and village in the land.

TRANSPORTATION

The Public Roads Administra-
ton said it's surveys show the av-
erage speed of passenger cars on
rural highways since the institu-
ton of the 35 mile an hour speed
limit has been reduced to 81 miles
per hour and trucks to 36 miles
per hour. Another survey showed
that in IL war plants in six states
the majority of the employment
travel to work by automobile. Of
flee of Defense Transportation Di-
rector Eastman recommended that
busses and street cars space their
stopping places in cities at distan-
ces from 600 to 1,2OO feet. He said
any distance less than 500 feet
would be wasteful of rubber, gaso-
line and equipment.

withdraw from wide areas unless
they can stop the Russian coun-
ter offensive.
The allies are building up strong
assault forces in Tunisia 40 GUST
Axis, but the enemy there will
offer strong resistance.
American and Australian troops
have cornered substantial numbers
of japanese troops between Coma
and Buna in New Guinea.
Although weather conditions ma
Ike extensive activity difficult in the
Aleutians, American filters are do
ing everything possible to harass
the enemy.
Navy Secretary Knox said it
unlikely that the japanese can get
reinforcements into Guadalcanal.
Australian troops, advancing on
Buna, have smashed Japanese CO.
unter attacks, while allied bomb
ers blasted enemy gun nests and
mortar emplacements, Gen Mac
Arthur's new Guinea headquarterf
reported November g. Japanese
Naval forces, however despite hea-
Wy losses, have landed strong fresh
reinforcements on the Buna Coma
beachhead. Earlier allied airmen
sank two and probably three tro-
op laden destroyers and definitely
sank one other destroyer and two
smaller Xessels.
Communiques during the week
reported allied forces in North A.
frica destroyed 100 Axis planes
and 81 medium tanks at the cost
and four damaged The War Depar-
tment estimated u. S. army and

FARM PRODUCTION AND

Agriculture Secretary Wickard
announced 1913 Food For Freedom
goals asking the highest produc-
ton in the history of American
agriculture. The goals will shape
next years farm production to the
needs of the United Naotions and
are aimed at maintaining or ex-
ceeding the record level attained
this year. The 1913 corn acreage
allotment for the commercial corn
area will be 3,423, 900 acres, as
compared to 41,338,000 acres in
order to insure feed for 1914 and
beyond.
To combat critical butter sho-
rtage, the WPB FSohibited dairy
producers from distributing ship
ping cream or other heavy cream.
The order does not affect coffee
cream an ddoes not apply to any
farmer who delivers up to four
quarts of heavy cream per day if
his deliveries averaged less than
one gallon daily in the three mon
tbs ended November 25.

Temporary Legislation to Effect Government White
 Collar Employees

E. Washington. Dec. 24. - lJPD--- President Roosevelt today signed temporary ieelAlatiOn granting over. time pay or salary increases to goy- efnment white collar workers and at the same time asked federal agen. cieg to reduce personnel wherever possible"
 He also recommended that goyern- ment agencies establish as a mini mum work schedule the stx-day, 48- hour week for both departmental and field service, tnas1nuch as the new law makes Saturday fuil work day.
 Tn a memo to ali departments and agencies, the President described the pay act as "a major step toward setting tiss govetsDment personnel situation in order" He added that 1t is necessary for the government "to disDenge with every surplus em- ploye.'
 The new law, Mfr. Roosevelt said, removes tfequitieS under which many federal employes, heretofore denied overtime compensation, have been working "and meets the rise in the cost of living by providing increased earnings for more and longer hours"
 "1t also recognizes the acute man. power shortage" he added, land as wartime necessity, removes the peace-time itixufy of the Saturday half holiday"
 The new law affects about 2.000, GOO civilian employees of the govern ment.
 ! The measure was approved in the form Of a joint resolution on the next to the last day Of the 77th Con. gresS' last session. Its provisions are retroactive to Dee. and vii expire April 90.
