Treasury Announces

For three successive months Wash
ington has exceeded its War bond
quota, and was 100000 over the top
on November 80, the Treasury De-
partment announced yesterday. The
District also ranks among the high
est per capita purchasing commun-
tiles In the country, the department
said.
November sales of 81, $40, ,6l3 helped
the District attain its September
October November quota of "a mill
lion dollars. Total sales here since
Pearl Harbor are $8l, ,44S,0O or
about 10 per cent of the compensa-
ton received by gainfully employed
persons. The average investment
has been about $40 monthly for
every resident and about $50 COM
pared with the number of persons
employed.
The Treasury Department attrib-
uted recent increases in bond sales
to the pay roll savings plan adopted
by many private concerns and Gov
ernment agencies.
More than 500 Greek businessmen
OF Washington invested their entire
gross receipts yesterday in War
bonds in commemoration of the
Pearl Harbor attack. 1t was part of
the American Hellenic War bond
drive begun october %, the ami
versary of Italy's attack on Greece
in 1910.
The drives Washington quota is
81 100000. and the national goal is
100000. James p. Chipouras,
chairman of the businessmen's COM
mittee, estimated that $3.50, 900 was
received IN yesterdays one-day CAM
paign. Peter L. Dounis is chairman

No icicles are hanging from

In view Of ofncial fuel-saving edicts

Temperatures prevailing in the

Fleming's Order Recalled.
A month ago, Maj. Gen. Philip B.
Fleming, Federal Works administra-

was followed by directives sent out

stances the boards were we'll down
toward the bottom Of their heaps.
Sufficient Help Is Problem.
The problem admittedly is one Of
getting sufficient volunteer help in
certain areas. Some efforts have
been made to shift volunteers from
boards where the program is under
control to other boards far behind
in their work This has been difn-
cult, however, because volunteers
usually live near the boards where
they work and they are reluctant
to report at some place far away.
Mr.. Steuart said it should also be
borne in mind that when the fuel
oil applications reached the local
boards around the middle of Octo-
ber they were already overburdened
with other rationing matters.
In nearby Maryland and Virginia
boards were having similar difficulty
getting coupons out to applicants.
The only board which has reported
the job completed is that in Prince
Georges County, which mailed out
the last Of its coupons last week. The
Fairfax County board reported 1t
had just begun to mail out coupons
to the many thousands OF appli-
cants. Lack Of volunteers held up
progress in Fairfax, 1t was said, but
the problem was believed to be
under control now.

situation in the Middle East. He
made his views known at formal
press conference.
Speaking on purely military
grounds I say Darlan is dangerous,
he declared. LIT. Gen. Dwight d.
Eisenhower's difficulties of com
munications will remain until the
North African situation is clarified
His presence there has been de-
scribed as provisional, military ex-
pedient. 1t is precisely for the rea-
son OF military necessity that this
expedient must be ended quickly"
Gen. Catroux said he hoped "for
the good name of the United States
that Admiral Darlan as an obstacle
to the complete fusion OF all French
forces behind the Allied war effort
would quickly disappear.

In today's statement Mr.. Steuart
explained that applications were
still coming in "at the rate of 500

Mr.. Steuart said the situation was
better than his figures indicated, in
