Marjorie is adamant and refuses
to increase his handicap. Proud of
his daughters splendid golf game,
it is apparent that the father en-
joys their matches as much as the

Masters Chip Shot

From the very start, Marjorie,

tunates who swing a golf club
"just like a pro-" Coupled with
that free rhythmic swing which
has made her one of the longest

Iekes Widens Regulations
Over Oil Production
pv TIE Associated PreAa.

By tire Associated Press.
The April petroleum production
rate was set by Petroleum Co.
ordinator Ickes today at 1856 300
barrels daily and he broadened his
regulations over production to en-
brance all petroleum liquids.
Heretofore the rates certified by
the co-ordinator to the States for
a particular month have been on
a basis Of required crude Oil only.
Beginning with April, the rates will
represent the recommended pro-
duction for all petroleum liquids,
including crude oil. condensate and
natural gas derivatives recovered
from oil, condensate and gas fields.
I'VE are broadening the certifi-
cation procedure" Mr.. Ickes said,
for the simple reason that the
urgencies Of the war situation no
longer permit the ignoring of what
amounts to substantial portion of
the United States production of
petroleum liquids.
Approximately S per cent of total
production is made up of condensate
and natural gas derivatives. OBJ
viously, inequities cannot help but
arise if the recommended rates do
not also take into account the pro-
duction requirements for these other
petroleum liquids"

Government Spending
Tops All Records

81 Months Total
Exceeds Mark for
Any Full Year
H~ the Associated Press.

SS tDe Ak4OClateo freeS.
With three and a half months yet
to go, Federal expenditures for the
current fiscal year today surpassed
the heaviest spending in any full
year in American history.
The Treasury disclosed that be-
tween July /, 1941, and March II,
1912, it spent $1s,s67.ell67s. The
highest amount spent in a previous
full fiscal year was $1s, ,522 1895 900 in
1919, which included the close of
the World War.
The new record was due almost
entirely to the war program. which
already cost $l3,989, ,1s9 ,975 Accord
ing to budget estimates, total ex-
penditures in the remainder Of the
fiscal year-through June 30-are
slated to add about $4,000 900, 900,
of which $4,000, 900 900 will be for
war. War costs now are running
we'll over $4,000 ,0O0, 900 a month, and
are climbing.
The new spending record was
achieved in the midst of the greatest
income tax collection in history. In
the first II days of March, income
tax collections officially recorded
totaled 1891 ,371 ,3l0, or more than
double the s6O2 ,66s ,6O6 taken in dur
ing the similar period last year.

Plan 10 End Scarcity
OF Tool, Die Workers
.She|ved al Detroit
Debate Over Wages
Stops Program for
Busy Auto Plants
Nv the Associated Press.

Nv 'ut hSSOClhLeQ fIeeo
DETROIT, March ia shortage
of tool and die workers still faced
the automobile industry today in
its efforts to speed up war imple-
ment production. despite announce
ment last Tuesday that an agree
ment had been reached to short
cut training of these skilled workers
through an upgrading program.
1t was announced at the automo-
tive branch of the War Production
Office on Tuesday that an agree
ment for the training Of semi
skilled workers as tool and die men
had been reached between the Tool
and Die Workers Council &C. I. o.
and the operators of Independent
tool shops and that so-called up
graders" already were at work in
the shops
Today it was disclosed that the
plan had been abrogated because
of the failure of a conference Of
United Automobile Workers &C.
I. o. and major automobile COM
panies on proposed wage stabili-
zation as between tool and die
workers In independent and COM
pany owned tool and die shops.
The conference. attended by Sid
ney Hillman, labor director for the
w. P. B., broke up last night with
no indication of when further nego-
tiations would be undertaken.
Tool and die workers in the in
dependent shops number about
5000. They receive an average Of
$l.63 an hour. About 10000 such
workers are employed in the auto
mobile owned toolrooms. They aver
age S138 an hour.
Before the war the independent
shops worked only about half the
time. Experienced tool and die
workers who had served four years
as apprentices were opposed to
training more skilled men in their
trades who would compete with
them for their jobs after the war.
An agreement had been reached
however. under which men skilled
in machine shop practice would be
taken into the tool and die shops
to learn the top-ranking trade of
the industry in approximately six
months. One of the provisions of
the agreement was that they would
accumulate seniority only among
themselves-as newcomers in the
tool and die work.
Ernest Kanzler, chief of the auto
motive branch of the w. P. B., has
termed the shortage of man power
in tool and die shops ''one of the
major factors holding up conversion
of the automotive industry to all
out war production" Top produc-
tion he added. could not be hoped
for until the tool shops could work
full force, night and day."

LONDON, March 19.-The Privy
Council upheld today a 1889 judg-
ment Of the Canadian Supreme
Court dismissing the Coca Cola Co. s
action against the Pepsi-Cola Co..
in which it charged infringement of
its registered trade mark.
The council ruled the plaintiff
should pay the costs of the appeal.
1t also dismissed, with costs, the
Pepsi-Cola Co.'S counter claim con-
testing the validity of Coco-Cola
Co.'S counter claim contesting the
validity of Coca -Cola's trade mark
after the Pepsi-Cola counsel said the
firm did not wish to proceed with
the appeal.
The council based its ruling ON
the finding that Cola is a word in
common use in Canada in making
beverages. It is plain that the dis
tinctive feature in this hyphenated
word is the first word, Coca, and
