 ASKS LENIENCY Wants Prison Term Re. duced; Decision Is
 Reserved

New York, Feb. 8-(UP)-Charles (Lucky) Luciano. one time vice king of New York city, applied to supreme court today for a reduc- tion in the prison sentences imposed on him after his conviction in 1886 of operating a compulsory prostitu- ton syndicate.
 Supreme Court Justice Philip J. McCook reserved decision on the application, made by Luciano's at- torney. George Wolf, who told the court Luciano had rendered a defl- nite service to the war effort" while in prison
 Wolf did not elaborate on tha: statement, but said he would have two high-ranking army officials consult with Justice McCook today and explain how Luciano had helped the nation at war. He said his client had been 8 model prison CT at Sing Sing. Dannemora and at Great Meadows prison, where he now is held.

'DRAFT BOARDS
 CHANGE ORDERS
Congress Wants Single Men and chiIdIess Illus.
 bands Ahead of Fathers


 Washington. Feb. S--(up)--Con. grass, stirred by warnings that mar. ried men with children soon win be inducted into the armed services. Today was expected to act quickly to probhit the drafting of fathers until all the single men and mar- rted men without children in the same state are in uniform.
 Closely allied with that move. was one by farm state congressrneri to obtain the release of virtually all farm workers from military duty.
 Chairman Andrew J. May, D., KyS of the House Military Affairs coEIf- mittee has promised short hearings this week on Q bill by Rep. Paul J. Kilday, D., Tex, which would set up @ uniform priority" system of men in each state and require their in- duction-if not deferred for essen- tial industries-in the following order:
 1. Single men without financial dependents.
 pendents.
 3, Married men with no children if marriage occurred before Dec. g, 1e4i and at a time when selection was not imminent.
 1. Married men with children subject to same qualifications as category three. - ...
 Local draft boards now follow that order more or less. But putting it on a state basis would eliminate cases where one board drafting married men with children while another in the same city or state still has Q supply of single men or married men without children.

WATERBURIANS IN
 SHOE INVENTORY
Latest Edict of OPA Is Cause of Big Surprise;
 No Uneasiness Felt

Many a closet inventory Of shoes was conducted in local homes today as the first universal ratloning" an- nouncement reached the public. Persons who smiled when sugar and coffee-rationing set in fell in with the rest of the consumers today and prepared to test their ability to take it..
 Surprise was registered by shoe merchants at the early rationing of footwear. Although an OPA an- Louncement was expected, shoe dealers did not believe 1t would come so soon. Many today recalled the difficulty in obtaining shipments, and were reconciled to the fact that rationing is necessity for just dis tribution.
 A great modification of styles is expected to follow the rationing announcement, as consumers will turn their interest more to wear and comfort rather than novelty and fashion, 1t was observed today.

BOYER IGNORED BY ADVERTISERS
''Kid In Upper 4" Awarded
 First Prize; LaROche Receives Gold Medal

!. New York, Feb. 8 - The coveted first award of the eighth Annual Advertising Awards for conspicuous achievement in national newspaper advertising for 1e42 was given at a presentation banquet last Friday evening, to Samuel A. Boyer, man. ager, public relations, of the New Haven Railroad. Mir. Boyer, who is a resident of Kingston, Mass, and well-known in New York and New England business circles, accepted the medal in behalf of the New Ha- ven for its nationally famous ad- vertisement, "The Kid In Upper q, which has appeared in many news papers and magazines. The medal was presented by H. W. Roden, chairman of the l942 Jury of Awards.
 Howard s. Palmer, president of the New Haven Railroad, was among the distinguished group of business and advertising leaders on the speakers dais while many of the lines ofiacials were present as guests at the table of Wendell P. Cotton. head of the agency which produced the advertisement for the New Ha- ven.
 The Annual Advertising Awards were instituted in 1895 as a means of furthering the aims and accom- plishments of the original Harvard Advertising Awards of 1924 to 1880.
 "The Kid Tn Upper 4" written by 3l-year-old Nelson c. Metcalf. Jr., Harvard graduate and copywriter of the Colton Agency's Boston Of1lce, first appeared in print early in De- cernber.
 Well over 5000 letters have al- ready poured into the New Haven's Of1ces from its patrons and from people all over the country praising the ad. Requests from the public, industry and business for reprints have necessitated special press runs and 1t has been reproduced in col- ors as @ poster. Newspapers and magazines have praised its editor ially. Eddie Cantor recited the copy on his regular radio program. Kate Smith plugged 1t. Charlie OFlynn, song writer, put 1t to words and music. Evelyn MacGregor sang 1t on the Melody Hour" MGM is making "The Kid" into a movie short. And the government is going to use the idea and illustration in the promo tion of War Bonds and Stamps.
 Chester LaRoche, of Westport, brother-in.law of Movie Actress Rosalind Russell, was presented gold medal for distinguished serv- ices, at the annual advertising award dinner.
 He was honored for his efforts in converting the advestising field to the war effort, through the medium of the Advertising Council, which he was instrumental in establishing.
 He was famous football player at Yale and an advertising sales man for Golfers before he was as- sociated with Young and Rubicam, Inc, in 1926. He later became ex- ecutive vice. e-president, and in 1884 was elected president and last year was named chairman of the board. MT. LaRoche's wife is the daugh- ter of Mrs. James Russell of Cour1- try Club road.

MOTORISTS HERE
 RESPECTING BAN
Police Authorities Indicate Checkups Here FavOr-
 able to Drivers

Motorists here are cooperating with the Office of Price Administra- ton ban on pleasure driving to an extent that leads police authorities to believe that there is relatively little chiseling, The Democrat was told today. It was emphasized, how ever, that violators are still being turned in, and face the possibility of losing their cards at hearings before the rationing board.
 Reports of widespread failure to observe the ban in other sections of the state led State Director Chester Bowles to warn that checks will continue to be made and thatt here has been no relaxation of restric- tions. Motorists may use their cars for shopping only if there is no public transportation available he said.
 Drivers who cannot give 8 satis- factory account of their use of their cars are referred to the local ra- tioning board, which makes the final decision on whether or mott hey may be allowed to retain their ra- tion card. Two such motorists were told by police yesterday to appear at the board headquarters for hearings.

The. fuel oil ration panel which was never assigned to assist consuTn- CTS with delivery problems but stepped into the picture only when there was no one else to serve the public, took the largest number of punches, because of dissatisfaction with the general shortage set~up Fred A. Webb, administrator of the ration board, said today steps would be taken to clear the board of all activity pertaining to the present emergency situation, explaining the problem was never rightfully in its jurisdiction. Ration officials were reported to be "up in the air" be- cause of criticism lodged against them for undertaking to aid the public.
 Red Gross Motor Corps workers and police staff members stepped in to assist needy consumers yester- day by delivering oil on the "emer- gency headquarters holiday, and though praise from the public was universal, the authority of the ra- ton board to order such assistance was questioned by several sources.
 Arrival of more oil will be the solution to all the administrative pickering, neutral observers noted.

Authority to distribute materials on e limited scale for production of alarm clocks for civilian use in non- critical labor areas, is expected as a result of a conference of manufac- turers and the War Production Board in Washington recently.

RACE RELATION

Methodists Throughout Nation to Hold Special
 ObServances

Race relations Sunday to be ob- served in all Methodist churches throughout the country Feb. IA will stress the need for missionary" work within the boundaries of our own nation, Dr. Harry Wright Mo- Pherson said in Nashville today. z
 The global war being waged may well determine for all time Americas s status as democracy, Dr. McPher- son. who is executive secretary of the Methodist board of education, added.
 The observance this year is de- voted to promotion of better race relations generally and the raising of funds to strengthen the program of the Methodist church through its educational institutions for negroes
 If America is to maintain her position as a true democracy at the peace conferen :es," Dr. McPher- son said, "she must in every possi- ble manner practice these principles at home. This applies not only tc the negro, the largest minority group in the nation. but to the In- dians, Mexicans, Chinese, Filipinos and the Nisei Japanese. Only through the provision of adequate educational, working and other equalities can these minority groups overcome the handicaps under which they have lived so long"
 The Methodist church has long been active in the educational field sponsoring 135 schools of higher learning throughout the country. Among these are IS schools for negroes, including four highly pro- fessional institutions. Dr. M. s, Davage Is secretary of the Method lst Department of Educational Tn- stitutions for Negroes.
