WARTIME RESTRICTIONS

Washington-War Production
Chief Donald M. Nelson forecast
by indirection Sunday few Of
the drastic wartime restrictions
the nation still must face.
Announcing arrival of two Of
his experts in Britain for an in
tensive two-week study in indus
trial concentration, Nelson, with
out comment, offered an up-to-
date picture of England's civilian
economy ''cut down to the abso-
lutte bone"
Britain, he pointed out, adopted
the principle of concentration of
industry early in 1941 and, at that
time, chad reached stage which
the United States has now reach

You can prevent mildew much
more easily than you can get it
out. So keep your clothes in a
well-ventilated, dry, light place.

When you put a handbag away
for awhile, stuff crumpled tissue
paper inside to help hold the bag
in shape.
Wrap the bag in soft unnapped
cotton cloth such as old sheeting.
If you put the bag away for a
season it's good idea to wrap it
and put it in it's own box.

Hull Praises Herriot
And Jeanneny for
Protest 10 Pefain :.
Secretary Is Skeptieol
Of LovoITs Willingness
To Let Jews Come Here
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Secretary of State Hull warmly
praised today the courage and
patriotism of Jules Jeanneney
and Edouard Herriot, Presidents
of the now abolished French
Senate and Chamber of Depu-
ties, who protested to Chief of
State Petain against the pro-
Axis policy of his government.
To Americans and to the French
people generally, Secretary Hull
said, there was tremendous signifi-
canoe in the utterances of these
two Frenchmen. With rare courage,
he said, they proclaimed what the
United States Government and
other true friends of France have
been proclaiming for some time.
Their words, Secretary Hull added
at his press conference, will live in
history.
Skeptical Of Laval Offer.
In connection with the renewed
and widened British military opera
tions in Madagascar, Secretary Hull
said he had not yet been informed
whether the British would need the
assistance of American troops there
or whether they had requested any
such aid.
Secretary Hull voiced skepticism
as to the reported willingness of
Chief of Government Pierre Laval
to allow refugee Jews in France to
emigrate to the United States.
Laval, according to well-in-
formed Vichy source who cannot be
quoted, told the American Charge
d'Affaires there that If the United
States did not like the mass deporta-
ton of Jews from Unoceupied
France to other European countries
he would be glad to let them go to
the United States.
Little Faith in Sincerity.
Questioned about this, Mr. Hull
told his press conference that he did
not know whether such statement
had been made to the American
charge daffaires. He indicated he
had little faith in the sincerity of
any such offer from Laval, pointing
out that the Vichy government is
refusing exit visas to refugees now
in France who already have OBJ
tanned visas emitting them to go to
free countries such as the United
States.
Mr.. Hull also was asked about a
Paris radio suggestion that United
States citizens in Unoccupied
France be held as hostages against
the repetition of American air raids
such as the recent raids on LIE
Havre and Rouen. He replied
briefly that this looked to him to
be typical piece of German propa-
ganda.

Eight Freedmen S
Nurses Suspended
For Misconduct
II Others Are Denoted
For Failure to Meet
Required Standards

Eight nurses at Freedmen S
Hospital have been suspended on
charges of misconduct, the sus-
pensions to be effective for pc
RODS ranging from Is days to
one year, it was learned today.
Twelve other nurses who failed
to maintain certain standards of
work have been dropped back,
delaying their graduation, Supt.
John w. Lawlah said.
Asked the nature of the miscon-
duct charges, Mr.. Lawlah said the
eight suspended nurses had staged a
party at the hospital and that zap
parently some of them had been
drinking" Insubordination also fig
ured in the suspensions, he said.
Four of the eight are seniors The
effect of their suspension is to pre-
vent them from taking final exam
nations for graduate nurse certi-
ficates until next April.
Mr.. Lawlah denied a published
report that 20 students had been
disciplined. Demotion of students
for failure to maintain achieve
ment standards is routine affair,
he said.
He refused to comment on reports
that a protest over the suspensions
would be lodged with Federal Sc
curity Administrator Paul v. Nc
Mutt, under whose s,lperyision

|WLB Plans Order
In New York Milk
Drivers Dispute
Men DeodIocked on PIun
Distributors and Route
To Cut Tire Mileage

The War Labor Board, after a
futile effort to bring New York
milk distributors ana drivers to-
gether on a plan to cut tire mile
age 25. per cent, announced ii
would issue an order in the dis
pute this afternoon.
The Board was reported consid-
ering delegating authority to COM
mittee to work out plan. The dis
putting parties disagreed in a public
hearing on statements of fact and
Chairman William H. Davis re-
marked that the Board members
had too much work to devote week
to investigation and mediation of q
single case.
Chairman Davis also reminded
them that ''if either the Office of
Defense Transportation order or the
contract .(between the companies
and the union) has to give way, am
sure it will be the contract"
Solomon I. Sklar, counsel for the
distributors, reported to the board
that night conference with union
representatives produced no agree
ment and that apparently the union
had not changed its position that a
mileage reduction should be accom-
plished without displacing workers.
David Kaplan, speaking for the
milk drivers, said the union oper-
ated on the principle i've would
like to maintain as much employ
ment as we could. We earnestly be-
ieve If we were given charge of the
route structure we could effect a
saving without change in the de-
livery service, because there are so
many wasteful practices now"
Mr.. Sklar said he had proposed
delivering milk six days a week in
stead of seven. He said the union
would agree to that only if the en-
ployes were put on a five-day work
week without curtailment of their
pay. Under the present system,
deliveries are made seven days
week, but individual employees work
only six days.

ENID, Okla, Sept. 11.-A fire
which ragged through a Champlin
Oil Co. refinery was brought under
control today by company f1remen
who battled to keep the flames from
nearby tank farm.
Ernie Slater, refinery superin-

as 1t was being moved from a low
pressure tank to high-pressure
10000 barrel receiving tank at the
refinery shortly before midnight
There was an explosion. Just off
the dock on a siding stood six tank
cars of gasoline. AS the flames
reached them they went up one
after another with laundering ex-
plosions.
The explosions showered flames
on the refinery proper, he explained,
and a giant storage tank holding
100000 barrels of oil. The latter
burned on today.
The heart of the big refinery was
eaten out by the flames. In ruins
were big high pressure still, two
loW-pressure units and one crack
ing unit. The company made no
estimate of the total damage i'm

earlier Story on Page A-2)
Senate and House leaders ar
ranged conference with Presi-
dent Roosevelt this afternoon on
legislation to hold down the cost
of living after failing to agree
on details of the measure among
themselves.
We haven't come to any definite
agreement as to the form of the
BILL" Senate Majority Leader Bark
ley told reporters following the legis-
lative conference.
I'VE are going to see the President
at 4 pm. and discuss it with him."
Mr.. Barkley said.
Speaker Rayburn said the situa-
ton might be summed up by saying
that all present were disposed to
wait reasonable length of time to
see II House and Senate members
could agree on the same kind of
bill
Silent on Differences.
Others present at the session
were Senator Brown, Democrat, of
Michigan, who is expected to handle
the bill on the Senate floor; Chair
man Wagner of the Senate Bank
ing Committee, Representative Pat
man, Democrat, of Texas, and
Chairman Steagall of the House
Banking Committee.
None of those at the conference
would discuss their differences, but
many farm State lawmakers have
asserted intention to demand that
industrial wage controls be written
into any bill to reduce farm price
ceilings below ITO per cent of parity.
parity is an artificial price
level calculated to give farmers
returns equivalent to those in a
past favorable period, in most
cases 1909-14.)
I'VE want to get the Presidents
ideas and give him our own, as to
the mechanics of the legislation"
Mr.. Barkley said. But it is not
probable that we'll be able to walk
out of the White House with a bill
all drawn"
Mr.. Barkley and Mr.. Rayburn
said they hoped to have bills intro
duced in both chambers by Monday.
but were unable to say definitely
whether that would be possible.
Duplicate bills would be desirable,
Mr.. Barkley said, but he added there
was no inclination on the part of
one house to delay the other.
Plenty of Time to Act.
The Senate majority leader saw
little possibility that the price legis-
lation asked by Mr.. Roosevelt would
conflict with action on the tax bill,
on which the Senate Finance Com
mittee is completing work.
Whether the Finance Committee
closes its hearings Saturday or early
next week, I don't see how we can
get the tax bill to the Senate floor
before September 49," Mr.. Barkley
said. Legislative craftsmen will
have to get the bill in shape after
the committee gets through and that
will take a week or longer.
II think we'll have plenty of time
to act on the price bill in the mean
time" he added.
President Roosevelt declared Mon
day that if Congress did not act on
the cost of living question by October
l, he would. Nevertheless, there was
a general feeling that If Congress
had made good progress by that
date, the President might withhold
executive action.
