his car is by statute assigned to him
by the Government for his personal
use and he can transport anything
he wants to in it. He mentioned
poodle dog as an example Of the sort
of thing he might transport If he
wanted to. The Secretary implied
that he might even transport a
newspaper coiumnist in his o1icial

The Interior Department car,
which called at Center Market this

Gas Dealers Doubt
Shortage in District
Before Monday
Drivers Warned However,
Thot Supplies Are Low
At Some Stations

Little likelihood that there will be
a serious gasoline shortage in the
District between now and next
Monday, the date on which dealers
get their next Today supply. WIS
seen today by officials of the Gas
oline Retailers Association.
They said after a survey Of the
field that many stations undoubtedly
will exhaust their supplies this week
end, but that there are others who
are complaining Of "too much" gas
on hand, indicating that the proper
procedure for the motorist before he
drives in search Of fuel will be to
find out exactly where it is available.
The American Automobile Asso-
citation also reported that many sta
tions, particularly those in outlying
residential areas, have a sufficient
supply of gasoline. 1t will be nee
essary for motorists to shop" for
gas. however. as a large number of
stations. especially those selling
quantities of motor fuel to operators
Of unrationed commercial vehicles,
report supplies running dangerously
low. Other stations are limiting
the amount sold to each customer, in
an effort to stretch supplies to Mon
day.
Motorists intending to drive out
of the city this week end are ad-
vised by the A. A. A. to have a
sufficient supply Of gasoline to re-
turn to the District before leaving
it, however. In nearby districts of
Virginia and Maryland gas dealers
report very limited supply, with
some filling stations closing early
and almost all Of them themselves
rationing the amount of gas sold to
each motorist.
The greatest pressure in some
local areas, officials of the retailers
association pointed out, probably
will come Monday when deliveries
are being made. At that time, as
well as during the approach Of the
weekend, they said, the solution of
the problem will be locating avail
able supplies beforehand.

Strike
Continued From First Page0

Revocation and Review as taxation
without representation" and called
attention to a part of the petition
in which it was claimed that taxicab
operators of the District pay In pub
lie utility license fees more than the
entire cost Of operating the Public
Utility Commission.
In the petition, the taxi drivers
demanded that licensed cab opera
tors elect from their members one
person to sit with the members of
the P. U. c. on all matters of any
nature pertaining to or affecting
the operation of taxis in the Dis
trict and have equal voice in de-
Gliding questions affecting drivers.
The United Taxicab Drivers, Inc,
which calFed the strike, was char
tered March Is Of this year and is
open only to actual cab drivers,
barring membership to eflcials and
owners of taxicab companies.
Gregory Hankin, chairman of the
Public Utilities Commission, said
after studying the petition, "per-
sonally, I think this is a joke" He
added his opinion that if the drivers
struck without exercising their legal
remedies, including an appeal to the
courts after they had applied for
reconsideration Of the new zone
order, they would be depriving them
selves of the right to operate as COM
mon carriers.
After conferring with James Flan-
agan, another p. U. G. member, Mr..
Hankin dictated a proposed order
which was later signed by men,
bers of the commission. 1t rec
commended first, that, if the petit
ton is to be accepted as an applica-
ton for reconsideration Of the zon-
ing order, it should be denied.
Pointing out that membership OF
the P. U. c. is fixed by Congress and
that Of the Board Of Revocation and
Review by the District Commission
ers, he also specified in the order
that the part Of the petition asking
representation for taxi operators
should be regarded as pertaining to
matters not within the purview of
the commission and should be and
hereby is dismissed"
Labor Department oficials re-
vealed, meanwhile, that the petit
ton from the tax drivers had been
received and was under considera-
ton to determine what jurisdiction
the department would have.

Heydrich announced last night, ac-

that there would be a reorganiza-

Czech circles here interpreted this
as meaning that Hitler had decided
to incorporate Bohemia and Mo-
ravia outright into the Reich.
One Czech source expressed the
belief that Heydrich had been shot
in protest against his order con-
scripting Czech youths for service

Heydrich, chief aide to Heinrich
Hinmler, Gestapo chief, has been
reported recently visiting Paris and
the Netherlands to take charge of
measures to put down revolt.
It was on such an assignment
that he went to Bohemia ard
Moravia in September, l941. He
moved in as acting protector and
applied heavy -fisted measures which
he announced a month later had
crushed all unrest in the pro-
tectorate.
He declared a state of emergency
in the principal cities and executed
at least "a Czechs during his first 48
hours of authority.
For his work there he won, at SO,

Communications Control
Progressing, Hull Says
BY GARNETT D. HORNER

ny Va nv Z i L y. hohNLhs
Secretary o State Hull today sub
mitted to Chinese representatives
here proposals for a new lease-lend
agreement similar to one already in
effect with Great Britain and to
that offered yesterday to Russia.
Greatest significance of the agree
ments lies in their provisions for
cooperation after the war in estab-
fishing international economic re-
lations on a basis of fair treat
ment and mutual benefit.
Mr.. Hull said the proposals to
China and Russia were the same in
all substantial respects to provisions
of the British agreement, which
defer final determination of the
conditions of settlement of lease
lend obligations, but stipulate that
the final terms should be such as
to promote "betterment OF world
wide economic relations"
Martinique Negotiations Reviewed
The proposed agreement with
China was submitted by Mr.. Hull
to T. v. Soong, Chinese foreign min
lister, and Liu Chieh, charge daft
faires of the Chinese Embassy here
in the temporary absence OF AM
bassador Nu Shih.
Mr.. Hull disclosed the negotia-
tions with China at q press con-
ference during which he also re-
viewed progress Of American ne
gotiations at Martinique for ar
rangements to eliminate any Axis
menace from French possessions in
this hemisphere.
In response to questions about the
possibility of political recognition
Of the French National Committee,
Mr.. Hull emphasized that the cen
trail objective of this country and
its Allies is to carry forward the
military phases Of the war with all
possible expedition in order to win
as quickly as possible.
Warships Being Demobilized.
He indicated that while recogniz-
ing military cooperation Of the
Free French, this Government was
unwilling to consider under present
conditions formal diplomatic rec
ognition of the committee headed
by Gen. Charles De Gaulle.
Mr. Hull declined to discuss I'M
plications of the torpedoing OF the
American destroyer Blakeley in Mar
Unique waters yesterday. He said
work of demobilizing French war
ships at Martinique was in progress,
if not already completed, and that
negotiations were going forward on
this Governments proposals con-
corning control Of communications
in the French possessions to pre-
vent any aid to the enemy. as well
as on economic questions which in

War Output Problem
Is Past First Stage,
Henderson Says
Declares U. S. Now Faces
Shortages Of Power, Fuel
And Trained Labor
~ the Associated Press.

~ the ASSoclAteo fress
NEW YORK, May 27.-The Ma
ton is past the first stage of its
war production problem, Price
Administrator Leon Henderson
said today, but he added that it
is now facing shortages Of power,
fuel reserves, transportation IA
cilities and trained labor.
II believe it will not be possible to
ration everything" he told the con-
Guiding session of the National As
sociation Of Purchasing Agents in
ternational convention. We are
many. many moons away from a
complete system Of rationing all
goods
Mr.. Henderson said that while
the Nation was on the down grade
In the production OF consumers
goods, its war production was reach
ing new heights.
The veins of our transportation
system are slowing up" Mr.. Hen
derson said. We're getting to
priorities not in steel, copper and
rubber, but in fiat cars and tank
cars. The whole production mech
anism is geared to go up, specialized
for the making of planes, tanks,
guns and ammunition, but paraly-
sis in some sections in transporta-
ton may not make it mobile"
Strong Organizations Stressed.
The price administrator said that
mo major industry has fallen be-
cause of excessively high wage rates
brought about by collective bar
gaining. I see the necessity for
strong peoples, strong organizations,
rather than those that are muscle
bound and tied"
Mr.. Henderson observed that
This is a political year; the next
few months are bound to be colored
with the great intensity with which
this country applies itself in Sc
lecting its representatives" and
added:
at is highly likely that we will
have some minor crises because this
is a political year."
David Ginsburg, general counsel
of the Office of Price Administra-
ton, told the convention that GAS
goods grow scarce because of war
consumer rationing will necessarily
be extended from tires and auto
mobiles and sugar and gasoline to
other fields"
S0T Rent Regulation Seen.
He said that soon 80 per cent
or more of the housing accomoda-
tions in this country would become
subject to rent regulations.
Discussing the O. P. A. enforce
ment policy, Mr.. Ginsburg said it
was designed not as a belligerent
threat, but as considered word of
reinsurance to the great rank and
file of buyers and sellers in this
country who are, we know. the ben
eficiaries and supporters Of our pro-
gram"
MIR. Ginsburg said there were three
essential conditions to effect en-
forcement. The first job, he added,
''is to bring home the fact that
these regulations are necessary for
the national safety and welfare, that
it is serious crime to violate them,
and that there is nothing clever or
smart In being able to Illustrate
their purpose without punishment. +"
In addition, he said, there must
be wholehearted cooperation of
business and consumer groups and
the administration of the enforce
mert program must be local.
