WASHINGTON, Jan. O. ZAP
The government may order
sugar rationing for consumers,
authoritative sources said today,
In order to halt an unwarranted
boarding epidemic.
Disclosing that such action
was being considered, these
sources declared that the supply
situation in itself did not require
rationing, but that regulation
appeared necessary to assure an
equitable distribution among
all users. Present supplies were
said to be ample, and prospects
were that they would continue
sufficient throughout the year,
Nevertheless, officials report
ed, many consumers have been
buying in excess of normal
needs and storing the extra sup
plies for use in event Of short
age and higher prices, such as
occurred in the first World War.
1t was explained that these
practises, if allowed to continue
much longer, might result in
acute shortages later for non
hoarders.
BOARDING BEGINS
Agriculture department sugar
experts said heavy purchases
for boarding purposes began last
year. This activity was reflect
ed in record sales. Distribution
increased from an annual aver
age of about 100 pounds in the
l933-40 period to almost 100
pounds per person in 194l.
Nutrition authorities, on the
other hand, say an average of
only about IS pounds is ample
for good, paltable diet. Most
Americans, they added, eat too
much sugar for health's sake.
Sugar experts take the posi-
ton that there is no justification
for b n ormal purchases of
sugar. They point out that con-
sumers are protected against
price advances by ceiling or
der, and that prospects are fairly
bright that supplies will be suf-
ficient to maintain a 100-pound-
per-year rate of distribution.
SITUATION COMPLICATED
The war, of course, has COM
plicated the sugar situation. The
United States has been depend
ing on imports for 70 per cent
of its requirements. The Philip
pine supply has been lost for the
time being and Hawaii is not ex-
pected to send normal exports
to this country because of ship
ping difficulties.
The experts state that pro-
duction in Cuba, Puerto Rico,
the Virgin Islands, other Latin
American areas, and in the con-
tinental Upited States would
be more than ample under nor
NAL conditions to make up the
Pacific deficit, ESHowever, this
country may be vailed upon to
share these supplies with Russia

Four Million
Man Army is
Primary Goal

WARRINGTON, Jan. 0-(R1
-0f1cials disclosed today that
inductions into the Army were
being stepped up to double or
triple the peace-time rate, and
indications were that the i'm
mediate goal was a hard-hitting
land force Of four million men.
The Army is accelerating the
Induction of present registrants,
which include about 100000
already classified as IA, with
out waiting to draw from the
100000 men between 20 and
- inclusive who are expected
to register Feb. Is.
No limit has been set on the
wartime size of the Army to
be sent to Britain and any where
else the high command may
deem advisable. Secretary Slim
son says the number to be drawn
from the 5000, 900 to 10000, 900
available fit men will be deter
mined by the needs as they
arise.
Present strength has been
placed at around 100000 Off
GERS and men, and plans already
under way would increase this
to 100000. Appropriations
have been made to provide COM
plete equipment for another
million and critical equipment
for q fourth million.
Although the war department
has issued orders against publ
cation of draft calls and quotas
for each area, officials made no
secret of the fact that the draft
rate was being doubled and
might soon be trebled, if such
has not already been ordered.
Revised figures on the number
Df draftees to be put in uniform
this month and next month from
the present pool of registrants
will not be announced, but be-
fore the United States formally

The story apparently started
Tuesday when radio announc-

Cattlelllell
Oppose
Price Bill

SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. o.
(AP)-Western cattlemen join
ed today with midwestern farm
ers In opposing President Roose-
velt's views on Q price control
bill, after drafting an out-of-the-
ordinary resolution calling for
alignment of the measure with
secretary of agriculture Wick
ards flood for freedom" pro-
gram.
Their action came after
charges were made that wit.
nesses at congressional price
control hearings were "hand-
picked and that opponents Of
the measure were denied the op-
portunity of testifying.
The business of adopting the
resolution interrupted the an
nounced routine of the 45th an
nual convention of the Ameri-
can National Livestock Associa-
ton, after president j. Elmer
Brock Of Kaycee, Wyo., told the
group the matter was of the ut
most importance to the meat
production industry.
AS sent to western and mid
western representatives and sem
ators Immediately after passage,
the resolution urged these pro-
visions in the price control bill:
1. That any authority to fix
price ceilings in livestock pro-
ducts be vested in the Secretary
of Agriculture; or
2. That if the authority should
be vested in the office Of Price
Administration, that the. bill
carry provisions requiring the
Secretary of Agriculture to APP
prove ceilings fixed by the OPA
of livestock products.
Frank S. Boice of Tucson,
Ariz., first vice president of the
association. presented the reso-
luton after an emergency ses-
sion of the executive committee.
Earlir F. E. Mollin, secretary,
had reported to the organization
Gin my Is years experience as
your secretary this is the first
major legislation of direct and
grave concern to us on which we
have been denied the opportun-
ity Of appearing at public hear
ings, although days have been
given to proponents of the legis-
lation.
" It Is clearly evident
that the administration is press
ing for drastic price control
powers. The hearings be fore
both the House and Senate COM
mittees have been restricted and,
to some extent at least, witness
es handpicked."
He said further "it appears
there is no real protection for
the beef cattle industry Tin the
bilD, although we should re-
member that the powers given
are permissive and that. II used,
the ceilings can be established
on a basis higher than provided
as minima if in the interest OF
the industry and the nation so
to do"
The executive committee also
wired directly to President
Roosevelt its assurances that the
association was pledged to full
loyalty and support TO the ma
tons war efforts.

Address Issue
5iirs City
Commission Frowns
on Room Residence

A shake-up among the Fl
holders of liquor and beer Ii
censes in the city was predicted
today following adoption last
night by the City Commission
of a resolution providing that,
in the future, all applicants for
licenses must have been resi-
dents Of Mount Clemens for six
months preceding the date of
application.
HIT ROOM ADDRESS
The Commissions ruling hit
at applicants who in the past
have "taken a room" within the
city limits to establish q Mount
Clemens address on their appli-
cations. This has been done in
several instances, recently
brought to the attention of the
Commissioners, to get around
an informal, and occasionally,
winked-at Commission rule that
licensees must be residents of
Mount Clemens.
Although the immediate eff
feet of the resolution was to
refuse automatically two license
transfer applications pending,
the principal result will prob
ably come in April when the
present operators of beer and
liquor must have their licenses
renewed. At that time, tn e
present holders will be subject
ed to close scrutiny to discover
those whose residence" consists
of one room in q boarding house,
while their families live in De-
troit or other communities.
ROOM IN CITY
The situation came to q head
last week when George Stoia
appeared before the Commits
sion to secure approval to trans
fer his one-half interest in the
Ritz Cafe, Is Cherry street, to
Lazar Pestru. Although Pestru
had stated on his application
that he lived at 80 Belleview.
discussion revealed that his fam
lily had residence in Detroit. Up
on questioning, Stoia also adj
mitted that he had q room in
Mount Clemens" but had voted
in Detroit.
ROSEVILLE MAN
A similar situation developed
last night, when Joseph DeCarlo
sought approval of his attempt
to purchase the liquor license at
Franks Tavern, "a North Broad
way. DeCarlo is q resident of
Roseville, and according to in
vestigation by the City Police
Department. there is no official
record of his citizenship. De-
Carlo told the Commissioners,
however, that he is World
War I veteran, having served
overseas with the u. S. Army
in France.
DUAL TARGET
Although the Commission did
not act directly upon these ap-
plicatiOns, the passage of the
residence-requirement resolution
in effect denies both.
After Commissioner Edward
DuBay had offered the resolu-
ton, Mayor Donald r. Weston
dorf commented that adoption
of the measure would eliminate
the pressure" that has been
brought to bear upon the Com
missioners in the past when a
liquor license was up for con-
sideration. These attempts to
use influence with the Commits
sioners have not had effect, the
Mayor pointed out.
Commissioner Frederick j.
Breitmeyer, Jr., seconded the
motion for adoption, and the
vote was unanimous, Commiss-
Toner Henry l.. Bruneel alb
sent.
