IRENE DUNNE MAN ARCUES, WINS OWN CASE
Along Woods Admits POs= sibly He Fell Asleep
 While Driving

A fluent tongue, a flashing smile and an avid description of the fa- tigue which caused him to doze while driving, won Alonzo Woods, Al, colored, of Vine street, dis charge on a reckless driving count in municipal court today.
 Motor Patrolman Joseph Terney testified that he arrested Woods following the investigation of an accident involving the accused mans car on Hamilton avenue near Bridge street. He said the car apparently skidded 25 feet before striking it's two right wheels against the curb ing.
 Woods testified that he had been to the beach to see his wife, who has been living in New York be- cause of the shortage of suitable apartments here. Que to the in- adequacy of transportation we de- cided to meet at the beach," he said. While driving home he said he apparently dozed off.
 The accused man went into lengthy detail in his account of de- velopments to the court. Finally Judge Conway said, "The case has been ably presented and ably ar gued-I'n discharge the case"

oil if we are to keep our New Eng land homes warm next winter.
 '"Ihe greatest contribution any gasoline dealer or car owner can make to our country's war effort is to abide by gasoline rationing regu- lations and to use gasoline only for essential needs. Any failure to con- serve gasoline requires use of trans portation that could otherwise bring in fuel oils so badly needed by our war industries, electric light and gas plants, and our homes. Any needless use of gasoline or fuel oil definitely retards the war effort"
 In submitting the report to Presi- dent Flanders, MT. Richdale de- clared, Until we succeed in &C., cumulating substantial reserve stocks within the area, everyone should regard the situation with grave concern. All of us in the in- dustry very earnestly hope that from now on the people of New England will be less concerned over how much gasoline they have for non-essential motoring and will give more thought to the urgent need of preparing to get through the winter with reduced supplies of domestic heating oils. We shall appreciate the continued cooperation of the Council in helping us to keep the facts of the situation before the New England public"
