VISA Revising Standard
Ship Charter Contract
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The War Shipping Administrator
is drafting revised form for its
standard ship charter contract in
order to effect economies in wartime
operation of the merchant marine.
VISA officials said today.
The new charter contract. which
will replace outstanding contracts
as they expire. combines features
of the standard time-charter form
and the standard bare-boat charter
form, and it was explained, inclines
toward the bare-boat form.
Under a time -charter form, the
VISA, as charterer, pays fat fee
for vessels services on a monthly
basis, with actual operation and
management left in the hands of the
owners who pay all operation and
management costs.
Under the bare-boat form, the
vessel Is turned over completely to
the VISA which provides its own
crews and pays other operating and
management costs In addition to the
fee paid the owners.
Present charter contracts follow
the time charter plan generally.
VISA officials said the new form
is being worked out in negotiations
with shipowner representatives.

Commissioners Cut
Operating Hours Of
D. {. Liquor Stores
PM. Closing Ordered
Except Saturdays;
Deliveries Unaffected

The Commissioners today ap-
proved recommendation of the
Alcoholic Beverage Control Board
reducing the hours of liquor stores
by three hours on weekdays and two
hours on Saturdays and days pre-
ceding holidays.
The new schedule for A and B
licensees-package and combina ton
stores, respectively-will be 10 am
to 8 pm on weekdays instead of
am. to 10 pm, and on Saturdays
and days preceding holidays the
hours will be 10 am. to midnight
instead of the present am. to mid
night schedule.
The Commissioners sided with a
majority of the ABC Board which
was reported to have contended that
no action should be taken on elm
ination of all deliveries by retailers
using gasoline vehicles. The ma
jority was represented as believing
that many package stores have
stopped deliveries voluntarily and
that 1t would create an undue hard
ship on the combination stores to
forbid them to deliver liquor when
they are delivering groceries.
The majority also argued, it was
said, that such action would not
conserve gasoline, since people
might then use their own cars to
make purchases. Thomas E. Lodge,
chairman of the board, was under
stood to have taken the position
that since there are restrictions on
deliveries by wholesalers and brew
cries and others, the liquor and beer
industry Ought not to be permitted
to blandly proceed without restric-
ton"
The board reported that the Dis
trict Retail Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton, which represents 229 of the 389
retail class A stores, have been ad-
vocating for sometime a reduction
Of the number of hours. Mr.. Lodge
said in a memorandum to Commits
sioner Mason that many stores al
ready have reduced hours, but that
there has been no uniformity.
The new hours will become ef-
fective five days after advertising

wanted to leave.
Then, the orchestra began to

Other Carolina vegetable crops,
which normally hit the local market
about this time, have been delayed

Some escarole and romaine, used
as substitutes for lettuce, was on sale
in stores here. A little cabbage,
mostly sprouts, also was available.
Although fresh peas were still some
wffat short, deliveries were tncreas-
ing, the commission merchants said.
AS matter Of fact, the dealers
reported, no vegetables ar reaching
the city ii any abundance, but they
expected conditions to improve In
another month. They admitted,
however, that 1t was impossible to
tell how much Of the spring crops
would be taken over by the armed
forces.
Only citrus fruits were still coming
in regularly. Dealers said they had
enough oranges, lemons and grape
fruit to satisfy the demand.
Potatoes, meanwhile, were still
almost completely absent from the
local market. One dealer said "black
market" potatoes were still coming
into the city, and he said these
potatoes were selling at from So to
