ers not to guess who will be named
War production director Donald NJ.
Nelson would make the appointment
after consultations with the presi-
dent.
There were indications here that
Arthur B. Newhall, present rubber
coordinator, will be replaced by
someone chosen from existing gov
ernment agencies dealing with the
rubber problem.
The President said he did not
think legislation would be necessary
to place the committees recon-
mendations into effect Besides ap-
pointment of the rubber car and
nationwide rationing. the committee
proposed a universal 35-mile-an-
hour speed limit, compulsory period
ic tire inspection, mileage restric-
tions, expansion of synthetic rub
Der production, and ALLEGATION of
more rubber than now is given for
essential drivers.
OUTLOOK REVIEWED
In current thinking" OF the rub
Der problem among responsible Of
ficials. the following facts stood
out as generally agreed upon:
!. Nationwide gas rationing will
be patterned after the system now
in effect in the eastern shortage
area and probably will call for
coupon booklets with common
standard of unit value.
,. If the critical fuel oil problem
takes q turn for the worse" during
the winter months, the value of
gasoline coupons throughout the
country may be cut.
8. Rationing of fuel oil in the
east and midwest will be announced
within a few days.
The eastern rationing system
which probably will serve as n pat
tern for a national plan-permitS
minimum of 1880 miles annually
for every motorist.
This was accomplished by issuing
all motorists in "A" ration book
good for l6 gallons of gasoline per
month. Motorists who use their cars
for more essential service may apply
for supplemental rations over and
above the minimum allowance.
OPA officials said that it was I'M
probable-aithough not impossible
that the same gallonage allotments
would be made for the entire coun-
try. They estimated that the present
east coast plan involved slightly
less than 5000 miles for each of the
100000 motor cars registered in
the eastern states.

The Pacific Northwest Logging and
Lumber industry today was ordered
to begin immediate 48-hour work
week operations to relieve a man
power shortage in the face of
desperate needs for lumber in

War Production Chief Donald NJ
Nelson issued the order, which was
the first arbitrary government di-
rection to a specific industry to
lengthen its work week, under au-
thority of the second war powers
act.
Two months ago. Nelson asked
the industry to institute voluntarily
the longer working time. He said
only 40 per cent of the lumber
camps and sawmills had done so.
and that the drain of workers to
other industries and to the armed
forces makes it imperative" to
change the request to an order.
ASKED BY CIO
The action was asKeu by Worth

tional WoodworkerS of America

workers who will receive time and
