Jones Asks
For Inquiry

Washington, July - Commerce
Secretary Jesse H. Jones today re-
iterated his desire for a congress
sional investigation of the obstruc-
zionist charges brought against him
by Vice-President Henry A. Wal
lace. He said he does not care Whe-
Their the inquiry is made by the
senate or the house.
JONES attended a house rules
comnittee hearing on a proposed
investigation of loans made by the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
to the Aluminium Company of Can
ada for development of the ShipsaW
Power project. He was asked If ne
still wanted an inquiry into Wal
lace's charges.
Il have stated on two occasions
that I wanted congress to inyestl-
gate these charges and don't care
who does it," he replied.
The question was put by Repre-
sentative Hamilton Fish, r.. N. Y,
who pointed out that the rules COM
mittee now has before 1t resolu-
ton by Representative Richard B.
Wigglesworth, r., Mass, to inves-
tigate Wallace's allegation that
Jones has used "obstructionist tao
tics in RFC dealings with the
board of economic warfare, which
the vice president heads.
The answer to Fish's question was
the only comment made by Jones
on VILLAGES charges during the two
hour committee session. No other
committe members mentioned it.
Another resolution for house in
quiry has been introduced by Rep
resentatives Clinton P. Anderson,
D., N. NJ, and in the senate, SEN
ator Styles Bridges, r., N. H..
offered an investigation resolution
which was referred to the banking
committee. 1t was doubtful whether
that committee would approve the
inquiry.
Jones defended his action as head
of the RIG in advancing $68,OOO,-
600 to the Canadian Aluminium
Company, although electric power
projects in the Pacific northwest
were halted by government order.
He said the loans were made IN
four contracts, and were requested
by the old Office of Production
Management and the War Produc-
ton Board and approved by Pres
ident Roosevelt.

Fair play in use Of gasoline cou-

OPA asks, according 10 Birkett l..

at Cleveland, in explaining that
the ration regulations have been
misconstFued by SportsmeL and

gasoline may be "legitimately
used under the ration program 10

purposes.
TRAVEL $50 MILES
cit Is a matter of regret TO
this office" Williams writes, ito
know that our activities in con-
nectlOn with gasoline ratiOning
have been miscOnstrued.
There Is no desire on our
part to prevent people legiti-
mately using their gasoline ra-
tiOnS TO get 10 the state parks
and vacation spots in Ohio.
THE holder of an \ card IL
allowed 240 miles of personal
driving each month. His cOu-
pOns can be accumulated for
period of two months, which
would enable him To make a
round trip of $50 miles, or 2I0
miles each May,
THE holders of II and G
cards, i'm accepting supplement
tai mileage for OccupatiOnal
purposes, automatically reduce
their additional driving for per-
sonal purposes 10 80 miles per
month. This, too, can he saved
up for two months to make
total of 100 miles round trip, or
80 miles one way.
PREVENT ABUSE
What we are trying TO pre-
vent il the abuse of gasoline ra-
tiOns by such people a. the De-
troit citizen who made "A trip
To Roanoke, Va, on his supple
mental c ration and the Cleve-
land man who made a trip TO
Pinehurst, y. {.
eff people would use the gas
ration allotted them in fair
manner. l am sure every one
could enjoy vacation at some
spot conveniently located and
within reach of the legitimate
mileage they have been
, granted"
