RAIL, BUS TRAFFIC
 MAY BE RATIONED
Need "May Arise Sooner Than We Think" Says
 Eastman

Boston, Oct. 5. (UP) = Defense transportation director Joseph B. Eastman warned today that the necessity for rationlng general pas- senger traffic on rail and bus lines may arise sooner than we think"
 Addressing the Boston conference on distribution, he coupled his warning with suggestion of three simple rules" which he urged the public to follow as a means of avoiding rationed travel. They were:
 1.-DO not travel any more than
 you can help.
 2.-Travel light, with as little
 baggage as possible.
 3.-Shun the weekends and do
 your travelling in the middle of
 the week if you can.
 Eastman'S speech followed the reading of message from President Roosevelt urging the distribution in- dustry to make ertain that the or- derly flow of goods needed for the war effort continues.
 Citing among the burdens of rail- roads such factors as increasing troop movements, equipment short ages and augmented passenger loads resulting from gasoline and rubber rationing, Eastman said:
 Our test indicates that there is a heavy percentage of travel for mere pleasure. Much of it could be avoid ed without real harm to anyone. The control of passenger traffic by government edict through some Sys- tenn of what is called rationing is a matter of extraordinary difficulty, because in the course of year hun- dreds of millions of individuals are involved.

HALLOWEEN PLANS
 TO BE DISCUSSED
Chairman George Lynch Calls Meeting of General
 Committee

There will be 8 meeting of the committee working on the Hal loween party, Washington Pari Community club new members, anc carnival workers, tomorrow evening at 7:3O at the Community House George Lynch, is chairman of this committee and asks all the members to be on hand.
 Representatives of the Commu- nity club are asked to be at the City Hall this evening, to attend tho scrap metal drive meeting which is to be held at the municipal court room at 7:30 o'clock.
 Annual census of St. Francis par ish will be continued this week. En- velopes for the annual collection were distributed at all the Masses yesterday.
 October devotions will be held every Tuesday and Friday night at 7:30 o'clock.
 Religious instructions will be re- sumed for the high school pupils this evening at zoo o'clock in the lower church, instead of the church hall, as was the place previous years. Father Sullivan asked that all the high school pupils from the lowly freshman, to the lordly seniors attend these instructions, and that the parents see to 1t that their chill dren attend.
 Last year the attendance was not at all what 1t should have been, and he is appealing to the grown-ups to take enough interest in these in- structions to see that the pupils at tend. Three-quarters of an hour a week shouldn't be 8 hardship on any high school pupil and the bene- fits derived should more than conl- pensate them for the time spent.
 Instructions for the grammar school children on Saturday morn ing, at 10 o'clock at the school and Father Sullivan reports that this was started last Saturday, and the attendance was about 30 per cent more than other years, when the time was at g o'clock. The sisters have taken over the Saturday morn ing classes, and the outlook is very bright at least after the first day. Instructions are also held on Thurs day afternoon, at the school, 2:S0, and after the 8:30 o'clock Mass on 
 The parishioners were also asked to attend the meeting this evening, at the municipal courtroom, City Hall, at 7:3O o'clock, to hear the details for the scrap metal drive. A very worthy cause, and all should sacrifice everything in the line of scrap metal, which they have lying around idle, to be used to help the war effort.
