last night by one of the 20 motorists
who appeared for hearings at 1740

Mr.. Williams maintained the ORA
was created by Congress as a dis
tributing and alloting agency and
not as police organization. OPA
inspectors were invading the privacy
OF the privately -owned Army and
Navy Club when they came there to
cite motorists for pleasure driving,
he charged.
Overruling the plea, the panel
ordered Mr.. Williams to surrender
one A coupon from his gasoline ra-
ton book.
In other cases before the special
panel last night, eight out of s19
motorists were fined for pleasure
driving. Eight of the suspects were

One of the officers, 1t. Comdr.
Onnie p Lattu, agreed with the
panel that he was guilty of pleasure
driving. The board suspended pen
atty in his case, however, when it
was learned he had been held for
five months as prisoner of war in
Berlin.
Others Fined by Board.
Those fined by the board were:

Pushing, lifting, carrying large
or heavy objects - be It in the
nursery or the factory can be a
strength and beauty builder.
But You have to know how TO
handle yourself, and particularly
your torso, or your activities will
cost you something in terms Of back
strain and loss Of posture.
Your back and abdomen are not
made to do the work Of lifting,
pushing, carrying. Your legs, arms,
shoulders are built to do these jobs.
Remember those simple facts, and
you probably will learn quickly the
good habits that you need.
A common bad habit is to bend
from the hips when wou mean to
pick something up off the floor.
This looks awkward--and is. Bend
your knees and stoop, keeping
strain off your spine and putting
the load on your sturdy leg
muscles. Keep your feet fairly
close together, place your hands
squarely underneath the object
you're lifting, then lift slowly by
means Of Strengthening your legs.
Albert plant supervisors advise
the woman worker not to attempt
lifting any object that's more than
a quarter of her own weight.
Housewives should note.
Placing a heavy object squarely,
in balance, on your shoulder helps
to carry 1t easily because, again,
this avoids strain on the back and
abdomen. It leaves your chest,
arms and legs free to take you
slirefootedly where you're going,
too. Shoppers can use bags strung
over the shoulder, preferably two
bags which divide the weight be-
tween shoulders.
When you push the pram or the
bin or the vacuum cleaner, keep
your spine straight and bend your
knees.
If you have acquired the back
breaking habits of letting shoulders,
spine and abdomen sag or sway as
you work, you'll find 1t useful to
practice correct motions. And keep
your mind on the idea behind them.
Try to develop relaxed, easy motion
-tautness In itself causes strain.
