ICKES OPPOSES
WEST Gas BAN
Oil Administrator Claims
Shortage Still Trans
pOrtatiOn Problem

Washington, June l0.-(UP)-Oil
Administrator Harold l.. Ickes told
the eastern congressional gasoline
bloc today that now is not the time
to extend the pleasure driving ban
in the middle west as means Of
relieving the gasoline shortage on
the Atlantic Seaboard.
Other sources previously had re-
ported an extension OF the ban to
Ohio, and perhaps other parts OF the
middle west will not help the east
Ickes said the gasoline shortage
still is transportation problem and
that further restrictions of the
middle west will not help he cas-
ern seaboard situation. He also told
the congressman:
/. He intends to renew his de-
mand for an increase in the ceiling
price on crude oil today, to encour-
age more production. He will take
an appeal, presumably to war mo-
bilization director, James F. Byrnes,
If it is rejected. 1ckes didn't state
how much Of boost he would ask.
His request April 8 was for a 35-
cent increase.
2. His office Is pressing the war
production board to consolidate the
rationing and price powers over oil
in the hands OF one administrator.
g. He sees no reason for optimism
regarding the fuel oil situation for
next winter.

nounced today by Walter w. Smyth,

ed violators of the pleasure driving
ban have been issued summonseS to
appear tomorrow afternoon at 2
o'clock and show why their ration
privileges should not be suspended.
Mr.. Smyth said files sent here by

and the others involved are resi-
dents Of surrounding towns. The
hearing district includes Middlebury
Wolcott and towns OF Litchfield

violators may have been stopped
while driving outside OF the city.
Although the State OPA announced
investigators were sent here, the To-
cal police force which has been
ready to assist them for more than
a week has had no word from them,
and 1t could not be determined
whether or not the city actually had
been toured.

der the second pleasure driving ban
which took effect May 81, will be
open 10 the public. Members Of the
OPP Ifge! riff will be sent here to
