CHURCHMEN FEAR
STATE SOCIALISM
Government to Play DOnli.
mating Part in Future
Americana Life

Indication Of o socialistlc form Of
government In America OF the end
Of the war was seen today BY facul.
ty members Of 1876 Methodist col.
legeS.
In O survey recently conducted
by the Board Of Education Of the
Methodist church, professors OF the
colleges gave their opinions on vital
problems concerning the war and
postwar planning.
The majority OF faculty members
expressed the feeling that state
socialism and government control
would be the most vital phase OF
American economic change OF the
wars end. Some Of the members
believed this form OF government
would exist only during the recon-
struction period, while others felt
II would be here TO stay. Other
faculty members, not seeing such q
drastic change In government, felt
that socialized medicine would DO
certain to be established.
Many other important plans were
discussed by members Of the facui.
ties. The following statements ex.
press the unanimous opinions OF
the professors, as shown BY the
survey.
!. The United States must main.
tain O large standing army and
navy until an international police
system Is devised. When II Is de.
vised, we definitely must have o
part In II.
2. F4libuStering In the United
States Senate Is an evil that must
be abolished, In on effort TO further
the aims OF good democracy.
8. The need for church related
colleges will be increased ct the
end OF the war. These colleges
should enlarge their program TO
give the student o wider knowledge
Of how 10 apply democracy TO race
and class.
4. Education In Christian insti-
tutions should be revised to include
military, aerial and economic
courses In preparing the student to
deal with postwar problems,
5. Postwar planning must be
based on the application OF Chris
tian principles and brotherhood.
The structure must be set up TO aid
the poor as well as the rich, the
lowly as well as the high.

EXTRA GAS FOR
war GARDENERS
New OPA Ruling to Be OBJ
served Here; Allowance
Also for Canning

James z. Mcknight, chairman OF
the gasoline panel Of the local
ration board, announced last night
that war gardeners will be given
extra allotments Of gasoline TO take
care Of so miles Of travelling per
month In accordance with the new
OPA amendment to become effec-
tive Friday.
Certificatlon Of applications for
gasoline rations may be granted by
war garden committees, established
here by the Waterbury war Council
and by local factories. The COM
mitteeg will send Qualifications to
the local ration board for issuance
Of rations.
The size Of the garden must be
at least 1900 square feet and for
the sole purpose Of producing vege-
tables, In order that persons may
qualify for extra gasoline aloltments.
The applicant must prove that no
other means Of conveyance exists IN
order for him to get TO the garden
plot and that his efforts are necess
sary TO the cultivation Of he gar
den; the allotment permitted must
not exceed more than 300 miles OF
driving for the six-nonth period
after the date Of application, which
grants an average Of so miles per
month, and the usual demands re-
garding ride.sharing must be I'D.
hered to.
According TO the state OPA defin-
ition, war garden transportation
does not qualify as occupational
mileage because the avocation Of
gardening Is not an occupation"
unless the produce Is grown for the
sake Of selling 1t for public con-
sumption or TO institutions through
commercialized channels.
A great many applications for gar
dening gas have already been re-
ceived at the local panel, said Mr..
Mcknight. Requests for gas allot.
ments were previously turned down
because Of the OPA policy that
existed prior to the new amendment.
Canning Purposes
Special fuel oil rations will be
Issued TO consumers who need the
fuel for canning purposes, Fred A.
Webb, local oil ration administrator,
has announced. Allotment will be
issued on the basis Of one gallon Tor
every 10 hours Of cooking, and ap.
plicants who request more than 10
gallons will be required to submit
statements on the amount OF time
the canning process will take.
Mr.. webb said also that owners
Of outdoor oil storage tanks may
secure oil on coupon credit to pre-
vent tanks from Floating. A nifll-
Der Of owners whose tanks are nearly
empty have requested oil TO keep
them In place and from breaking.
The allotment will DO deducted from
next seasons ration.
