 Cheek "SnOOping"
 eff Old Timer reads his pa- pers closely, he know thatt he OPA has not yet started prosecution against anyone in the state with out uncovering fragrant violation which was being committed at the expense of the majority of our citi- zerS.
 "It has become obvious to me and to every member of our organiza- ton that education in the "why" of rationing and price control is far more effective than strong enforce ment action"
 In conclusion, Bowles advised car owners to demand to see credentials og anyone representing himself as an OPA investigator before answer ing questions and to report nnisrep- resentations promptly 70 the OPA headquarters, 55 Ally street, Hart- ford.
 'T'm sure if the people do this, the 'snooping' rumor will soon be suuelched," he added.

REPEAT BROADCAS ON UPPER 4 KID
Recent Presentation Re- suits in Nationwide Re-
 quest for Encore

Radio Stations WBz and WBZA of Boston and Springfield will pre- sent special dramatic sketch "The Kid in Upper Four" from 6:15 to 6:30 p. m. this Sunday as a tribute to the New Haven Railroads widely heralded advertisement which in- troduced "The Kid" to the nation.
 Written by Donald Horter and produced by Grace Keddy of the WBz-WBzA staff, the sketch high lights the life of "The Kid" his mother and father, his girl-Marge, and a hard-boiled but understand ing Army sergeant.
 The program originally was pre- sented about two weeks ago, dur ing the late evening. However, so great was the response and so many were the requests received by the radio stations to repeat the broad- cast, that WBZ and WBZA have arranged to present the program again-at a time when more people will be able to enjoy it.

Stopping cars and questioning the occupants isn't any part of the OPA enforcement plan in Connec- ticut," declared State OPO Director Chester Bowles. First of all, such shopping tactics are enphatically contrary to our policy. We believe with good reason that the great majority of people in Connecticut are more than willing to do what they can to help ease the drastic fuel oil and gasoline situation. The spontaneous cooperation we have received to date from car owners throughout the state is ample evi- dence that snooping tactics are both unnecessary and distasteful to the people"
 Letter Starts Probe
 The OPA was first apprised of the possibility that unauthorized in- dividuals had been accosting notor- ists in scattered parts of the state by 8 letter signed "Old Timer" in Q Hartford newspaper, Bowles said.
 Accusing the OPA of employing snooper methods of enforcing the emergency order against non-es- sential driving, "Old Timer" claimed to have been riding in car in Wethersfield on a legitimate shop ping trip when the driver was stopped and questioned by a man representing himself as an OPA agent.
 Following publication of this let ter, the State OPA headquarters re- ceived dozens of phone calls and letters, many of them praising the constructive way in which ron-es- sential driving is being curtailed, but others were received citing ex- amples of snooping similar to "Old Timers"
 Three reports, also emanating from Wethersfield, state local grocer allegedly claimed the OPA has asked him to turn in the names of cuHtomers who drive to his store more than once week, Bowles re- vealed, branding the matter as completely baseless."
 For those people who "have ap- parenEy been made victims of a hoax" the OPA chief said, "1'd like 10 make three or four state- ments of fact.
