Unlike sugar or gasoline rationing,
the fuel oil rationing program allows
no easy way for consumers to check
on whether they are getting the
share of oil to which they are en-
titled. The method of computing
each ration is complicated and err
rors among ration board workers
are understandable.
The following method of working
out the oil rationing formula should
help consumers to check the allot-
ments granted them by their boards
with the ration which they are en-
titled to receive under the OPA pro-
gram:
To figure out how much oil you
should receive from your ration
board you will need two figures:
Cd The floor area, in square feet,
as you reported it in your fuel oil
rationing application, and ca your
total consumption of oil last year,
also as reported in the application.
This Is How It's Dene.
If you use oil to heat your water
as we'll as your home, you must
first separate the amounts of oil
used for each purpose. Under the
OPA formula this is done in the
following manner: Allow 20 gallons
for the first person in the house
and 5 gallons for each additional
person for every month hot water
is used. Add these allowances and
then deduct the sum from the total
oil used last year. Now:
/. Multiply the number of gallons
OF oil used solely for house heating
last year by .773.
2. Divide the result by the total
floor area
If the answer you get in Step 2
falls between .6l6 ana .8O4, then this
answer becomes your basic ration
per square foot. If it Is higher than
.804, then your ration per square
foot Is .804 If it e less than GIG.
then your basic ration per square
foot is either SIS per square foot or
98.6 per cent of last years house.
heating consumption divided by the
total number of square feet, which,
ever is smaller.
3. Now multiply the basic ration
per square foot by the total number
OF square feet as reported on your
application. This will give you your
basic ration for your entire house.
Allowance for Children.
4. If you heat water, allow 20
gallons for the first person and five

pointed out that in approaching
months, as we extend our offensive
fronts into Europe and Asia, we can
hardly hope to keep our losses low;
the bloodless winning of Dakar cam
not be duplicated every day" So far,
Gen. McNarney added, the United
States casualties have been only
one-seventh of the total of 5000
in the World War.
Plasma, credited with saving the
lives of hundreds Of men wounded
in the war zones, must be ready for
instant use. Like ammunition. planes
and tanks, it must be assembled be-
fore an offensive begins. With the
big military push still to come,
Americas civilian big push must be
directed toward the accumulation Of
plasma against the day it may be
sorely needed, it was emphasized.
Mr.. Folger indicated that details
of the organization effort would be
announced later, after preliminary
plans and discussions lead to adop-
ton of city-wide plan to speed up

Prayers for Victory
Offered at Solemn
High Mass al {. u.
Procession Of Faculty
Members and Students
Precedes Services

Prayers for victory were offered
today at solemn pontifical high
mass celebrated in the Shrine of the
Immaculate Conception on the
Catholic University campus, as part
of Nation wide observance of a
day of special devotion and prayer
for peace and the country's welfare.
The most Rev. Michael j. Curley,
Archbishop of Baltimore and Wash
ington, was celebrant of the mass,
in which members of the university
faculty, the student body and Cath
Ollie laymen participated.
The observance, held on the Feast
of the Immaculate Conception, were
designated by the Catholic bishops
of the country.
A procession of faculty members
in academic costume and of the
student body preceded the services
here.
Father JepsOn Speaks.
The Rev. John J. Jepson, presi-
dent of Basselin Foundation of the
university, who delivered the ser
mon, declared the chaotic conditions
of the world today are the result
of mans persistent effort to deal
with might and its problems indie
pendently of God"
Religion has to a large extent
ceased to be direction of the soul
towards God. 1t is formal and SUI
perficial-a conventional veneer of
society,"" Father Jepson declared.
Officers of the mass included Msgr.
Edward Jordan. dean of Sisters
College, assistant priest; the Rev.
DR.. Clement Bastnagol, and the Rev.
DR.. John Weisengoff, both of the

5. If you have at least one child

Your total ration for the season
will be the sum of the basic ration,

the children's allowance. From this
you must deduct whatever oil you

Check Estimate Carefully.
Check your computation carefully.
Then compare it with the value of
the coupons that nave been given
you These coupons are issued in
specific denominations totaling so
gallons and in unit denominations
for the remainder of the allotment
The units now are worth 10 gallons
each and will continue to hold this
value at least until January 4. After
that, the OPA may decide to change
the unit value either upward or
downward.
II your own calculation is accu-
rate and the answer you get does
not agree with the value of the cou-
pons issued to you, it is suggested
you consult your local rationing
board.
OPA officials asked consumers.
when checking their allotments, to
count their coupons carefully, not
forgetting the SO gallons in specific
denominations. They also reminded
householders to add the amount of
oil they had on hand on October /
to the value of the coupons in order
to get their total ration.
Advice to New Users of Oil.
Consumers who filed their applica-
tions after November l will get fewer
coupons for the first heating period,
which ran from October | to De-
cember 3, depending on how late
they sent In their forms. However,
If such consumers purchased oil on
the basis of promissory notes during
the first period, their rationing
boards will provide enough coupons
to redeem the notes.
Householders who are using oil
this year but did not have it last
year and those who used it only dur
ing part of the last season, can OBJ
tain their basic ration by multiply
ing the total number of square feet
In their homes by ITO.
Consumers who use oil for domes-
tic hot water must remember to
save fuel to tide them over the sum-
mer months.
The allotment of oil for each
heating period is obtained by divid-
ing the total ration by five. Con-
sumption of oil can then be checked

Tax Exemption Bill
Endorsed by Directors
'0fBoard ofIrade
U. S. Share in District
Expenses Inadequate,
Report Declares

The Board of Directors of the
Washington Board of Trade yester-
day adopted report of its Munich
pal Finance Committee indorsing the
McCarran tax exemption bill for the
District, now pending in the Senate
At the same time, the report called
attention to the "inadequacy" Of the
existing lump-sum contribution by
the Federal Government to District
expenses. 1t approved the sugges-
ton in the report of the Senate Dis
trict Committee that along with the
problem of tax exemption goes the
opportunity to establish better fiscal
relations between the Federal Gov
eminent and the District.
The measure of Chairman McCar-
ran of the Senate District Commit
tee was substituted in the House Dis
trict Committee for the bill of Rep
resentative Hunter of Ohio and
passed by the House with slight
changes. The bill is to define the
real property exempt from taxation
in the District of Columbia"
Seeks to Prevent Abuses.
Citing the review of tax-exempt
property during the last two years
by board set up by the District
Commissioners, the committee re-
port declared in part:
Your subcommittee (Which pre-
= IF IN,
that the Commissioners OF
the District, as result o. the study
made by the special board appoint
ed by them, have pointed out some
existing abuses and future dangers
in connection with the tax exemp-
ton of privately owned property
The Congress is obviously attempt
ing to set up standard to prevent
some of these abuses, and it is be-
lieved that the pending bill IS. 1904,
does correct many of these abuses
and sets up at least one very sound
and proper standard for exemption
namely, that privately owned prop
critics must not be organized or op-
Grated for, private gain
The principal abuse, perhaps,
not fully corrected by the provi-
sions of the pending bill is in con-
nection with property owned by
exempt organizations which is not
used or may never be used for the
religious, educational or charitable
or other purposes, which purposes
form the basis of tax exemption.
However, the bill does provide for
the payment of taxes upon property
sold at a profit by such organ
izations, and it is believed as a
practical matter this will prevent in
the future unnecessary purchases OF
property.
Therefore we believe S. 1904 is a
decided step forward and will form
a basis for the handling of this
problem. at the same time permit
ting possible amendment if. the oc-
casion arises"
Lump Sum Held Inadequate.
In another section of its report
the committee stated: =.
Your committee believes that
even If nothing else had been ac-
complished the Commissioners
study OF the tax-exempt property
in the District would be justified by
the deserved emphasis 1t has placed
on the inadequacy of the existing
lump-sum appropriation"
The report argues that exemption
of real property is not the only
basis for an adequate annual pay
ment by the Federal Government in
support Of the Nations Capital but
that other obligations ere based On
