Correction
Former Coy. Allen Not
Accused; Former Gov. Noe
Never Convicted

In an article in the Sunday Edi-
torial Section OF yesterdays Star,
printed under the headline. "Po-
litical Bosses on Wane-Party Ma
chimes Weakening, Election Results
Show" the statement was made:
Long was assassinated, but Irey's
men ELMER L. Trey, chief co-ordi-
nator Of the Treasury Agency Serv-
ices) convicted his principal lieu
tenants, former Cows. Noe, Allen and
Leche, Seymour Weiss. President J.
Monroe Smith OF the Louisiana
State University and other promi-
nent citizens"
This statement was erroneous, in
that former Gov. Noe while indicted
in the so-called win or Lose Cor
poration" income tax case, was
acquitted with the corporation after
a trial. The late Gov. Allen was
neither indicted nor convicted.
The Star regrets an error origi-
mating in faulty information fur
nished to the writer of the article.

1000 Women Here
Signed as Victory
Corps Volunteers
OCD Leader Predicts
Mony More to Register
For Service Near Homes

When women realize that Victory
Volunteer Corps work requires little
time and can be done in their own
blocks, many more will register for
VIC service. 1t was predicted yes
terday by Mrs. Olive w. Swinney,
executive secretary of the Civilian
Mobilization Division of local civil
ian defense.
About 1000 now have signed up
as Victory Volunteers, Mrs. Swinney
said.
Results Gratifying
She pointed out that organization
of the corps was launched on Oc-
tober 10, scarcely month ago"
In view of this fact, she said, the re-
suits of the city-wide registration
held Tuesday, In which about 1000
women signed up, were not dis
couraging."
The number of mail applications
now being received by the Civilian
Defense Volunteer Office was de-
scribed as very gratifying
The mobilization secretary report
ed that although plans call for the
assignment of one Victory Volunteer
to each 20 families in the Washing
ton area, three of the 66 civilian
defense areas here have sufficient
volunteers to operate on the basis
of one worker to IS families.
Meat-Sharing Drive.
Mrs. Swinney estimated Friday
that Victory Volunteer units in 81
of the defense areas will be or
ganized in time to participate in
the "share-t he-meat" campaign
opening November 80. Twenty-one
units will be ready to begin house.
toulouse visits on the campaigns
starting date, she said. Ten others
will be ready to go by December 8.
Omitting names of two areas be-
cause Of uncertainty" Mrs. Swim

eight sections expected to join in

the difference was directly traceable
to can preparation, which, in the
second case, was approximately Is
per cent more efficient.
Vulcan chiefs also spiked rumors
that American detinners are work
ing at or near capacity in their effort
to handle the flow of tin cans from
American householders and business
firms.
One official pointed out that the
Neville Island plant, near Pittsburgh,
can handle 100000 more gross tons
per year, and the Sewaren unit is
geared to process $4,000 more gross
tons than the flow of materials at

Needs, Mrs. Roosevelt Saws
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press,
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-Mrs
Franklin D. Roosevelt said yester-
day, in her first public address
since returning from England, that
the United States is still far from
realizing the needs and priva-
tons that go with a total war
effort
Speaking at a rally which Off
cially opened the Women at War
Week." Mrs. Roosevelt said
Some people in this country will
continue to spend money on them
selves no matter what you do"
She contrasted this with the
present situation in England, where
you simply. can't buy things be-
cause they are not available"
She told her audience Of 5000
persons, many of them in the armed
and auxiliary forces:
1--WE open this campaign today to
focus the eyes Of every woman on
her duty of buying War bonds and
stamps and of encouraging others
to do likewise
This campaign involves the
whole public, of course. But we
hope that every individual woman
will come to know that she has
a job to do---a job that won't be
finished until peace is signed"

D. {. Experts Urge
Proper Preparation
For Tin Can SALVAGE
Cons in Poor Shape
For Processing Will
Be Refused

As Americas need for tin grows
more critical hourly, District sal
wage experts again UNDERSIGNED the
importance Of proper preparation of
tin cans for processing, urging
Housewives to spend "just minute
and a half each day" readying the
cans for detinners.
Housewives were reminded again
that cans not properly prepared will
not be accepted by the District
Refuse Department which is ship
ping accumulations by carload lot
to Neville Island, Pa, where SO per
cent of the steel in the cans is re-
claimed for reuse and l per cent of
the tin is sent back into war pro-
duction channels.
Horace Walker, Salvage Commit
tee executive secretary, estimated
this morning that housewives can
prepare tin cans properly by spend
ing an extra minute and a half a
day-or about 81 minutes month
cleaning and flattening the cans.
The Importance of proper prepare
ton of the cans IS clearly demon
strated in figures being compiled by
the Vulcan DEFINING Co. of Sc
warren, N. j., home Office of the firm
which processes District cans at
Neville Island.
Recent shipments from Toledo,
Ohio, to the Neville Island unit
show that freight cars with the same
cubic foot capacity can carry up
wards of Is per cent more tin cans
If the material is properly pre-
pared by the housewives.
A recent shipment, for example,
carried net weight load of 50,72O
pounds or a density of 80 pounds of
tin cans per cubic foot. The same
car. on November 10, carried SO 800
pounds of tin cans with the density
figure leaping to AL pounds per
cubic foot.

New Rush-Hour Buses
Only Partly Full as
18th s.. Test Starts
Transit Company Officials
Puzzled at Lack
Of Patronage

Two buses which started an ex-
perimental rush-hour bus service on
Sixteenth street today carried only
partial loads on the initial trips,
Capital Transit Co. officials said.
One bus started at Sixteenth street
and Eastern avenue at 7:2O am. and
made run to Eighteenth street and
Constitution avenue; the other left
the same point at 7:43 am. and went
to the terminal at Eleventh and C
streets NV.
One ran "local" to Underwood
street and then express to Eleventh
and K streets via Sixteenth street
and Massachusetts, avenue, resum-
ing local service to the Eleventh and
c streets terminal. The other also
made local stops to Underwood street
and ran express from that point to
Twenty third and G streets NV.
and local from that point to Eight
zenith street and Constitution ave-
nue. NV.
%. ,..ss,sA Officials Puzzled.
Transit officials said they were
unable to explain why the buses
failed to carry full loads, pointing
out that the experimental express
service had been advertised in all
Sixteenth street buses week in
advance.
One ofhcial expressed belief the
loads would increase after bus
patrons are more familiar with the
service.
Return trips will be made by the
two buses over the same routes
this afternoon. One bus will leave
the Eighteenth street and Consti-
tuition avenue terminal at 4:40, the
other from the Eleventh and c
streets terminal at sos.
If the rush hour express service
proves successful it is planned to
increase the number of buses. The
present plan is to add express
buses for trips beginning at three
starting points on upper Sixteenth
street as patronage demands and
to drop express service if the plan
is found not to suit riding habits
of passengers.
Plan Is Compromise.
This plan represents a COM
promise between the Public Utilities
Commission and the transit COM
pany after long battle over re-
quests of the Sixteenth Street
Heights Citizens Association for ex.
press service.
The transit company took the po-
sition that express service on one
line would discriminate against
passengers on other lines which
lack such service unless a higher
fare were paid. The fare for the
special experimental service on the
Sixteenth street line will remain
the same as the present uniform
cash, token or weekly pass fare.
