Of Newspaper Week
Importance Of War Role
In Keeping Truth Alive
Emphasized by President
By til. Associated Press,

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The men
who make business of converting
the worlds events into ink so that
all may read and know paused today
and figuratively took stock of their
record.
The occasion was the opening of
National Newspaper Week.
Americas press had plenty to pat
itself on the back about. But it
was too busy helping to win a war,
along with the rest OF America
fighters, workers and industry in
general.
President Roosevelt put it this
way:
Our free press has not only sur
vived-it is an essential part of the
steadying ballast which enables our
ship to ride the storm.
War imposes grave new respon-
slbilltles on all of US, but upon no
public servant does the responsible
lty Tor truth and integrity rest more
heavily than upon the press. Theirs
Is the duty of keeping the people
fully and faithfully informed.
The American people are vigilant
OF their precious heritage of free
press. They will permit neither it's
corruption nor its perversion for
selfish ends. They will continue to
regard 1t as their strong right hand
IN war as In peace. believe that
their confidence will be justified"
That confidence plus news ability
mas produced these actual results
from the press thus far in the war,
though the press isn't willing to call
it the best yet.
A treasury Department estimate
OF $65, 900 900 in War savings bonds
as the result OF free space in 10000
daily, weekly and sectarian news
papers.
A total of $5O,O0O,O0O in War
stamps sold by newsboys.
Leadership in the Nationwide
scrap drive.
What can't be measured in actual
figures is the newspapers role in the
war of informing the people hon
estly, OF exerting voluntary censor
ship of facts which would harm the
war program, of holding the conf
dence of national leaders so that
sometimes the direction though not
the exact path of the national effort
may be pointed out to the people
| From the ranks of the press
thousands have entered the armed
services and, although the ranks
have been closed up, they will be
depleted further and closed up
again.
The American press has sent
many of its best men to every nerve
center of war and every battlefront
throughout the world.
Harry M. Ayers, chairman of the
Southern Newspaper Association S

ing in Hot Springs, Ark, yesterday

applied to war correspondents

I paratively warm one, and 4,432 in
the winter of 1940-l, according to
one heating engineer. In nor
NAL" year 4595 degree days are
recorded in Washington.
Two x factors are used in apply
ing the OPA formula. a high of
1900 and a low of $500 Applying
these to last years degree day
figure gives a basic SO to so of a
gallon of fuel oil per square foot
of floor area.
IS Per Cent Is Maximum.
II the 1895 degree day figure for
normal year is used. the two K
factors produce a basic gallonage
ration of 50 to 80 per square foot
of floor space
This still is not the final figure
however.
If IS per cent of last years con-
sumption is less than the top figure
arrived at by the area degree day-K
formula. IS per cent will be the
ration. according to present plans
If IS per cent is higher than the top
| hgure. the top hgure derived by the
formula will be the ration. In no
case will the ration be more than
IS per cent
If 662s per cent of last years fuel
oil consumption is less than the
lower figure derived from the
formula, the ration will be set at the
lower formula figure. In no case
will it be less than 662a per cent.
Normal degree day figures are
being determined now by OPA ex-
perts. They will vary in different
localities, depending on mean tenn
peratures recorded in the past. The
average New York winter has 527C
degree days, for instance, as COM
pared with Washington 1895 de-
| gree days.

verted, or where equipment and
facilities for using other fuel are in
serviceable condition and standing

Some Washington dealers were
bitter in commenting on the rush
of home owners to have tanks filled.
Thousands of calls were received
from customers, many of whom
were nearly hysterical in their de-
sire to obtain oil, apparently fearful
that a thankful would be lost from
the seasons ration. One dealer
blamed the situation on what he
described as wolf, wolf stories
emanating from OPA.
"One Fine Mess"

whole thing is one fine mess. ]

sion since have been in the world

our feet with orders another COM
mented.
OPA, meanwhile, assured fair
distribution of oil to all. The house
holder who operated efficiently and
| burned less oil last year than his
neighbor will not be penalized fol-
this. The cut in oil for consump.
ton this year probably will range
from 20 to Is per cent, depending
upon the efficiency of the heating
system and the "tightness" of the
house, it was stated. In no in
stance, OPA has ruled, may a home
owner receive, however, more thar
! IS per cent of the oil consumed last
season.

Wartime Speed Limit
Of IS M.P.H. Starts
All Over u. ). Today
Enforcement Methods
Vary From Penalties to
Appeal to Patriotism
By the Associated Press.

o5 LAG AbSOClhLeu FTeSb
A wartime speed limit of IS miles
an hour for privately owned auto
mobiles went into effect throughout
the Nation today, but enforcement
methods varied from imposition OF
strict penalties in some States to ap-
peals to patriotism in others.
The Office of Defense Transporta-
ton. which ordered the speed re-
striction to help conserve the Ma
tlon's rubber stockpile, declared all
48 States were taking some steps for
enforcement.
The ODT said the order for the
national speed limit sets no penalty.
and that enforcement would rest
largely on voluntary cooperation by
the motorists and on action of State
and local authorities. All Governors
empowered to set State speed limits
already have fixed the 35-mile an
hour figure, it added.
The Virginia General Assembly, in
special session, only yesterday
passed a law making the maximum
speed limit IS miles an hour and
authorizing the Governor to lower
this to 80 miles an hour, or later
raise it, If he deems it necessary.
Gov. O'Conor has set the Mary
land limit at IS miles an hour by
proclamation.
In some States where statutory
speed limits exceed 35 miles an hour
authorities took various steps to en-
courage compliance. Ohio's high
way patrol said it would blacklist
speeders by reporting them to Office
of Price Administration officials who
pass on applications for tires, tubes
and new automobiles.
Gov. Prentice Cooper of Tennes-
see directed highway patrolmen te
report speeders to their county auto.
mobile and tire rationing boards. In
New York, State police said a mo.
torlst convicted of driving between
33 and 40 miles an hour is liable to

Stars Horse Saves Gas, Tires in HouIinq Series News

"Git up, Rowdy, we've got papers
to deliver"
With these words The Evening
Stars World Series, special" got
of to q fine start late yesterday
and baseball fans received the final
scores of the game at their favorite
newsStands.
Rowdy is a 10-year-old ex-huck-
ster's horse, that yesterday drew a
freshly painted wagon through
Washington streets with the World
Series final of The Star for down.
town news dealers. At the reins
was George Conaway, So, colored.
Defense Transportation Admin
ministrator Joseph B. Eastman was
on hand to see the first horse drawn
newspaper wagon in Washington
start on it's round since before the
World War. Commented Mr.. East
man:
I'm in favor of substituting oats
for gasoline and horsehide for
rubber any time"
The Stars World Series special
is an experiment in the conserva-
ton OF gas and tires, which Mr.
Eastman and other Government
officials say must be saved II the
war is to be won.
Rowdy, George and the wagon
which, incidentally, is painted in
the brown and yellow colors of The
Stars fleet of trucks-will set out
again today from Eleventh street and
Pennsylvania avenue NV. with the
last edition of the paper carrying
final World Series sscores and news.
Under the present Office of De-
fense Transportation rules, news
papers may use motor equipment to
make no more than three deliveries
day to the same point. But since
Rowdy and George don't use rubber
or gasoline they will be able to dis
tribute the final edition of The Star
to stands.
With the largest fleet of trucks
of any local paper-33 in all-The
Star becomes the first to revert to
the horse and buggy. 1t was in 1852
that The Star first began using
wagons. In 1913 the paper placed
in operation the first gas-driven
vehicle, which sages of that time
said spelled the doom of horse
drawn wagons.

Mathematical Formula Fixed
To Determine Fuel Oil Ration
Consumers Will Get From 66 2-3
To IS Per Cent of Normal Amount

Fuel oil will be rationed this VIM
formula which employs floor area
and the temperatures of an average
winter to give home owners at least
6623 per cent, but no more than IS
per cent of past normal consump-
ton, Office of Price Administration
officials said today.
The formula devised by OPA heat
ing experts TO determine the basic
ration !nsures Washingtonians of
81 to 80 of gallon Of oil per square
foot Of floor space if the winter ac-
cepted as normal for the District
is used as the basis of determina>
ton.
This would be minimum of TAO
gallons for a house of 1900 square
feet.
Fixed Formula Adopted.
The OPA formula for determin-
ing the basic ration in private
homes is:
Floor area multiplied by degree
days. divided by K.
K IS the constant, a figure reflect
ing standard heating efficiency with
a good oil burner and efficient in
stallation.
Degree days are the heating engi-
neer's measurements of the coldness
| of a winter in a given locality, the
| measure of the difference between
the average outdoor temperature
and IS degrees.
On a day when the high tempera-
ture was 60 and the low was 40, for
instance, the difference between the
average temperature of so degrees
and IS would mean that Is degree
days would be recorded
There were approximately 5000
degree days recorded in Washing

|Pre-Ration DeadIine
For Fuel Oil Finds Few
Homes With Full Tanks
Orders Swomp Dealers
On Lost Day. With Small
Chance Of Quick Delivery

A survey of dealers indicated
today that less than half the
tanks of Washington home own
ers who depend upon Oil heat are
filled to capacity. The Office of
Price Administration had urged
consumers to fill tanks to a
maximum of 275 gallons by to-
day.
Fuel oil may be sold to consumers
in the 30-State rationing area be-
ginning today only in accordance
with coupon credit system ordered
by the War Production Board to
control deliveries until the OPA can
distribute coupons later this month.
The credit system provides that
every consumer, dealer and sup
plier who receives deliveries of fuel
oil for any purpose must execute a
written promise to surrender to the
seller rationed coupons, as soon as
they are available, for the number
of gallons delivered.
The OPA had stated that unless
householder could show he was
unable to I'LL the tank because of
financial reasons or dealers inability
to make deliveries he would lose
just that much oil for consump-
ton this winter. Ration cards, it
was explained, would be tailored"
to the extent Of $50 gallons anyway.
There seemed little likelihood,
however. that any Washington
home owner would be penalized
under this ruling. Dealers were
swamped with calls yesterday and
the day before and were unable to
fill even a small fraction of orders
received.
Dealer Cites Difficulties.
"They can't expect us to do In
| two weeks what it normally takes
all summer to do" one dealer COM
mented in reference to the OPA
order to have tanks filled by to-
| day. TT will take us until Octo-
ber Is to take care of people who
have no oil in their tanks. We
are not even bothering with those
who have as much as quarter
tank"
All owners Of oil-heated homes
and business establishments are
called on to measure the amount
of oil in their tanks today, since
ration applications require a state

are requested by OPA also to meas.
