corning draft of married men with

Existing Rent Rules
In Nearby Areas Are
Expected 10 Stand
Pending Legislation
Won't Affect Controls in
Maryland and Virginia
Star Staff Photo.

Legislation now pending before the
Senate Banking Committee en-
powering the President to stabilize
all rents, including commercial, will
have no direct effect on the enforce
ment machinery now set up for
nearby Maryland and Virginia COM
munities, it was learned today.
At the Office of James F. Byrnes,
director of economic stabilization, it
was stated that the Office of Price
Administration will continue to con-
troll rates on the present basis.
While the pending legislation was
still before the House last week,
there was some controversy over the
possible effect of the bill on existing
rent control machinery established
by the OPA.
Applies to Commercial Rents.
Robert Leland, OPA acting regional
counsel for the suburban area Of
Washington, said, 1T is my under
standing that the primary purpose
of the legislation now being con-
sidered by the Senate committee is
to make commercial rental property
subject to rent control.
"The pending legislation does not
invalidate or change maximum
rents already established by OPA
for residential properties. This ap-
plies to Federal control in nearby
Maryland and Virginia defense
rental areas as we'll as to other de-
fense rental areas throughout the
country"
For this reason, there will be nj
changes Of maximum rent levels ir
| areas already controlled, as a direct
result of the legislation now pend
ing or the Presidents new powers
Other factors, which would have oc-
Cured anyway. might bring about
such changes, however, an OPA Off
clal pointed out.
Different Date Confusing.
There was some confusion over
the possible effects of the bill when
first introduced because of a pro-
vision to freeze rent ceilings at
levels prevailing September IS, 1912
on all properties throughout the Ma
ton, despite the fact that OPA
already had established ceilings on
September IS at levels prevailing
on January l, 1941. The Septem-
Der Is provision has been striken
out, however. Nearby Arlington and
Fairfax Counties and Alexandria in
Virginia and Montgomery and
Prince Georges Counties in Mary
land are among the areas where
January !, 194l, ceilings are en-
forced.

Manufacture Of War Tire
Is Authorized by WPB
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
CUMBERLAND, Md, Oct. 26-
The production of a new war tire"
by the Kelly Springfield Tire Co.
has been authorized by the War
Production Board.
Company officials said yesterday
the tires are expected to be ready
for distribution when regulations
governing their rationing have been
formulated.
The tires will be capable of giving
reasonable service under wartime
driving regulations, the company
said, but 1t will be important to hold
the speed of the car under IS miles
per hour, maintain proper air pres
sures and avoid quick starts and
stops.
Best results will be obtained by
rotating the tires on different wheels.

375,000onWPA
Face Tests for
Use in War Jobs
Gen. Fleming Orders
All Left on Rolls
RecIossified

About 5000 persons throughout
the United States still on WPA rolls,
will be reclassified to determine
their qualifications for farm and in
dustrial jobs, under an order to
State administrators issued last
night by Brig. Gen. Philip B. Flem-
Ing, Federal Works Administrator.
All WPA workers are to be placed
IN one of the following categories:
Qualified for immediate placement
IN industry or agriculture; suitable
Tor training for war industry work;
qualified for other private or pub
nc employment; not acceptable by
industry under current specifica.
tions of employers.
Another Step in Program.
Gen. Fleming called his order "an-
other step in the program of placing
qualified workers in industrial iobs
and training others for war work"
This program has been under way
Tor months, he said, and during the
last four weeks WPA employment
has been reduced from 4Oo,0oo to
about 375,0OO.
WPA now has 25,oOO workers in
training for industrial Jobs and
hopes, through reinterviewing. to
double the number of trainees.
The reclassifcation is timely be-
cause labor shortages in many war
industry centers have caused en-
ployers to lower standards and offer
employment to large numbers of
older men and women formerly con-
sldered unemployable, Gen. Fleming
said.
Few on Projects Here.
The FWA administrator pointed
out that in recent months many
WPA construction projects have
been closed to facilitate transfer of
workers to farm and industrial Jobs.
AS OF October /, all construction
work in 1,187 of the 3,O52 counties
OF the country has been halted, he
said.
Fewer than 1000 workers remain
in the Districts work relief program,
including those employed at the
Navy Yard and Boiling Field, the
only two WPA construction projects
now In operation here.
