Naval experts said today that
three months of sea war in the Pa
cific had produced positive evidence
that, qualitatively, American ships
and men are more than match for
the ships and men Of Japan.
Every engagement in which sur
face and air units of the United
States Fleet have participated to
date, it was said, has furnished proof
of the American edge on ship-for-
ship, man-for- man basis.
Because of this evidence, the ex-
perts said, the big question no longer
was how United States forces would
stand up in action against the en-
emy, but rather how quickly Japan's
numerical superiority can be equal
lied or overcome in the Western
Pacific.

j. Harry McGregor, speaking Wednesday, Sept
9, in the House of Representatives In Washington
D. c., delved into the proposed gasoline ana tuel
oil ratoning proposal now being considered by tne
government. He questioned the necessity OF 1t IN
Ohio and called attention to the following status
tics in his speech:
Nearly two-thrds of all the homes in the Unit
ed States that depend upon petroleum products FOR
heating are in the rationed area along the East
Coast recent report of the Bureau of Census re-
veals This report is the first count of the heat
ing facilities and fuels made. 1t shows that
of the 33 867 300 dwelling units in the nation which
in 1910 reported their heating fuel, 1896 2l2 were
oil heated and 2,19O,126 of them were in the East
Coast states This includes occupants of homes
and apartment houses with central heating, and
also those dwellings heated by stoves or room
heaters many of which burn petroleum fuels
The report further states that more than thlr-
ty-five percent Of New England families burn pc
troleum fuels for heating Among the States,
Rhode Island has the highest concentration-45o
per cent; followed by Connecticut with forty-tWo
percent, and Massachusetts, with 1863 per cent. New
York's 1876 percent represents the largest numDer
of oil-heated dweings-652,8 ,820-or nearly TWEEN
tv per cent of the total for the entire country
In the East North Central States of Ohio, In
diana Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin, only 52
per cent use petroleum for heating Abundant sup
plies of cheap coal and widely distributed natural
gas have tended to close off much of the market
for o-heating in these states. So say, why Ra-
ton Gasoline and Fuel in Ohio?'
Emergency transportation measures are scarce
ly adequate to meet the ratoned needs for petroe-
um products during the summer months. These

Why Ration Gasoline and
Fuel Oil in Ohio?

several million dwelling units on the East Coast
using petroleum for fuel, beginning in October,
will demand an additional supply of many millions
of gallons daily for heating, and it is impossible to
foresee now how al of this added demand pos
siby be met. 1t would not appear that rationing
of fuel oil in the East North Central States is the
answer. The relatively small supply which could
thus be made available, even if emergency trans
portaton facilities were able to handle it, would
be exceedingly small compared to the need
The figures in this report of the Bureau of
Census of course, were gathered in 1910, and am
informed that since that year perhaps the num-
Der of oil-heated dwellings has increased to four
million at present, with than 2,500000 Of
them in the East Coast area Of course these lat
conversions from oil to other fuels since rationing
was adopted, and | am informed that these con-
versions along the Eastern Seaboard amount to
approximately forty thousand.
In respect to gasoline consumption in Ohio |
should like to call attention to the fact that voun
tary ratoning in Ohio is getting results. Accord
ing to the reports of the Department of Taxation
of the State of Ohio in the first half of 1912 Ohio
motorists used AZ, 148167 gallons less of gasoline
than in the same period of 1941. This takes no ac
count of the greatly increased consumption by
trucks and buses, but this net saving of gaso-
line at fifteen miles per gallon, means that mo-
torsts in Ohio reduced their travel in the first half
of this year by 632 422, ,504 miles, and thereby
ed the equivalent of 100000 tires.
OF course, everyone expects that the voluntary
reduction in the use of automobiles in Ohio will
be much greater in the last half of 1912 than in the
first half.

Reduce Accidents
Plea of Council

In the aggregate, the time has
passed when we can take a dis
passionate approach to accidents.
The Ohio State Safety Council
and the Newark Traffic Safety
Council with the expressed ap-
proval and support of President
Roosevelt and Donald Nelson, are
trying to reduce the accident
trend as war measure.
Last year four million workers
were injured, three-fifths away
from their jobs. Fifty thousand
of them died. Another 10000
were permanently disabled. The
rest were kept from work for
greater or lesser periods.
This year, with employment up,
the first five months experience
forecasts 100000 injuries, 52,-
900 deaths, 10000 permanent in
juries.
From the war production stand
point, this is mighty serious. 1t
means, the National Safety Coun-
Gil computes, that we shall lose
five hundred million man-days Of
labor, at a time when we are
pressed to find enough workers
to care for our military needs.
Half a billion man-days are
equivalent approximately to two
million men working fifty 40
hour weeks.
These two million men are
enough to provide the labor for
building II battleships, or 625
destroyers, or $4,000 flying for
tresses, or 100000 fighter planes
or 312,500 light tanks.
1t is up to every worker, and
every workers family and every
employer-and then to the pub
lie as a whole-to fight the
mounting curve of accidents, both
within the factory and outside.

From where I sit :
BY Joe Marsh

In the square of a little village not
far from here l came on the pref
tiest flower garden you ever saw.
1t was lot of flowers all mixed
up-hundreds of different kinds, I
guess. So I asked a passerby If he
could tell me about it.
"Well," he says, Gin this town
whenever anybody plants a flower
garden and has any seeds left,
they scatter them over this plot"
Then he leans over and pulls out
a couple of weeds. ave all have to
help pull out the weeds too" he
tells me. "That way the village has
flower garden to be proud Of"
That's about as pretty an illus
tratlon of cooperation as I ever
come across. But there's plenty Of
examples of cooperation and civic
spirit these days.
We were talking just yesterday
about how the brewers and the beer
distributors are working together
and cooperating with law enforce
ment authorities.
You see lot of friendship and
fine old customs have grown up

Defense Corps
Workers May
Deduct Gas Cost

Members of the Citizens De-

vised this week by local officials,
following receipt Of word from
Dan T. Moore, regional director
of the Office of Civilian Defense,
that expenditures made for gaso-
line for automobile use in con-
nection with their duties as civ
ilian defense workers will be an
allowable deduction on income
tax returns.
Depreciation on the automobile
will not be allowed as a deduc-
tion but only the expenditure for
gasoline.
Civilian defense workers were
advised to keep adequate records
in order to establish the amount
expended and the fact that the
gasoline was used for civilian de-
fense purposes.
