The Office of Price Admins

Gas Rationing
Regulations
are Severe

DETROIT, Dec. IL - (Pl -
John @, Public is acting as his
own watchdog to see that the re-
gulations of gasoline rationing
are obeyed.
In calling attention TO severe
penalties for infractionS. done
either deliberately or through
carelesSness. an OPA official in
dictated today that the public
was on its toes 10 see that rules
were enforced.
Samuel B. Ostrow, senior en-
forcement attorney for the OPA
here, reported that complaints
from citizens over privileges
granted other persons were
coming in by the hundreds
OStrow, while admitting that
a good share of the complaints
might have sprung only from the
compliments thoughts of self,
said that many were inspired
by patriotism
They want to know Ostrow
said, why such and such a car
with c. card stands in front of
such and such a night club, why
John Doe, who works at the
Blank plant, received only b
card while his neighbor, employ
ed in the same place, received a
nice bookful of c coupons
Declaring that the OPA was
investigating each complaint,
Ostrow said that information in
OPA hands on each car owner
made il virtually certain that of
tenders would be detected. He
added that 1.-The percentage is
against the chiseler."
Sooner or later" Ostrow
said, "he will be turned in by
someone-his employer, neigh
Dor, the police or even jealous
girl friend. And when our inves-
tigators get working on him, it's
just too bad"
Enumerating penalties, Os-
trow said that theft or illegal
purchase of cards or coupons
might bring a five-year prison
sentence and $4,000 fine; false
representation in the ration ap-
plication, a maximum of ten
years and $4,000 fine; draining
gasoline from another car, a
year and $4,000.
And there are numerous other
punishable violations, OstroW
said.

Go Effenlinate;
i'm the Movies

NEW YORK, Dec. 11-(P)-
The United States Marines are
not allowed to cuss any more
in the movies, anyway.
Time, Inc, reported last
night that on orders of the Will
Hays office three words, h.,
d. and the one about being
born out of wedlock, were edited
out of a March Of Time feature
We Are the Marines.
Roy E. Larsen, president of
Time magazine, declared an ap-
peal would be taken, in contrast
to the British movie men who
agreed yesterday not TO insist
that certain words remain in
Noel Coward's war film, In
Which We Serve" when shown
in America. These deletions, too,
were ordered by the Hays office.
Larsen said he believed the
two situations were quite diff
ferent," adding that I'VE Are the
Marines" was an American
made picture depicting accurate
ly what the Marines did and
said.
The Marines are shown in
operation in the Philippines,
when the Japanese attacked
Pearl Harbor, and other islands.
The word concerning legitimacy
was used in referring to the ia
panese.

Charge Labor Resources
Not Used Efficiently
Sen. Byrd Believes Problem Of Speeding
Supplies to Afrieo Hos increased

length of the war could be cut
considerably by stretching this
to 48 hours.
Byrd stressed that he was not
advocating the abolition of over
time pay in war industries, be-
lieving that wage rates could be
readjusted to maintain the pre-
sent pay levels.
Agreeing generally with this
thesis, Senator Taft (R-Ohio)
said he thought it might be well
to suspend the premium over
time pay provisions of the 40
hour week for essential civilian
industries where labor already
was becoming short and employ
ers could not afford to pay wage
increases because of price CELL
ings on their products.
Taft said he believed the man.
power shortage was less critical
than it II been made to appear
and Senator Ball (R-Minn) ex-
pressed the opinion that a long
step toward solution of the pro-
blem could be taken by govern
ment control of war industry
hiring.
Such control, the Minnesotan
said, would tend to place men
where they were needed. 1t
would prevent, for instance, the
hiring of tool maker as a car
penter in one plant when there
was an acute shortage Of tool
makers in another plant.
Senator Pepper (D-Fla) told
his colleagues yesterday that the
manpower problem had been
"muddled enthusiastically" by
the % government bureaus he
said were stumbling over each
other in attempts to handle 1t.
1.-THE result is" he daclared,
THAT the Federal government
has not comprehensively viewed
the manpower problem and has
not set up comprehensive ma
chinery to deal with it,"
Pepper urged creation of an
agency which would exercise
overall control of the economic
program, insisting that lack of
materials was often as great a
deterrent to production as was
a shortage of workers.

Lively with laughs, thrills and
action, Paramount's exciting ro-
mantle comedy of murder, may
hem and mystery, Fly BY
Night" was enthusiastically re-
ceived last night at the Jewel
Treatre where it will play until
closing time Saturday night.
Starring Richard Carlson and
pretty Nancy Kelly, the pic
lures plot revolves around the
adventures of young doctor
and a girl innocently entangled
in spy plot. One of the gangs
victims is slain in Carlson's
room. Falsely accused Of MUIR
der, he evades the police by
breaking into Miss Killy's apart
ment and literally kidnapping
her. The film hits a fast and
funny pace as the stars race
from one hilarious and hair

their quest for the real killers.
Fly BY Night" Is a merry
blend Of murder, mystery, ro-
nance and fun. Carlson does a

in this lively film to be just as

is exciting as well as gorgeous
and is responsible for more than
her share of laughs.
In the able supporting cast the
work of the famous Continental
actor, Albert Basserman, is out
standing. Martin Kosleck, Mes
tor Paiva, Edward Gargan, Mi

Pacific War
Vital, Mas
Tells Nation

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13-(R
More emphasis on the war
with japan was demanded last
night by Rep. Mas (R-Minn), a
colonel in the Marine Reserves,
with the contention that the fu-
ture of 1.-The white mans civili-
cation" rests upon the outcome
of the Pacific fighting.
Recently back from a four
months duty on many of the
Pacific fighting fronts, Mas de-
clared that the Nations armed
forces still lacked unity of COM
mand, and commended that Off
cial reports of our defeats and
disasters" had been played down
and twisted.
In a radio address, he said
"We are still losing the war in
the Pacific" but declared that
the United States had the re-
sources, the manpower, the pro-
duction and ingenuity necessary
to defeat Japan.
1T will make little difference
in the end who wins in Europe,
we or Hitler, if the Japs win in
the Pacific" he said, "for in
twenty or thirty years a billion
and a half orientals, industrial
lied, organized, and modified
by Japan, will overrun a war
devastated Europe and, finally,
America too"

BY JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, Nov. Is Up
Demands for suspension of the
40-hour week rose to new
pitch in Congress today amid
charges that the nations labor
resources were not being used
efficiently.
Senator Byrd (D-Va) told re-
porters he believed the problem
of speeding supplies to a large
American expeditionary force in
North Africa had tremendously
increased the need of obtaining
the maximum production he felt
could be reached only by length
ening the work week.
1.-THE time has come when we
must press the fighting stronger
and stronger every minute, ;"
Byrd declared. I'VE have to uti-
lize the manpower strength of
the country to the fullest extent
and we are not doing that with
the 40-hour week."
Asserting that the average
work week in war industries ap-
peared to be only about AZ
hours Byrd said he thought the
