attacked by an enemy submarine
from a range of less than 1000
yards. With supreme presence of
mind. you ordered full ahead on all
engines and full right rudder. BY
this prompt action you caused the
ship to swing rapidly to the right,
so that one enemy torpedo passed
very close ahead and one very close
astern Of the vessel, and no hits
were scored. AS a result the ship
was saved from damage which might
have resulted In her loss and the
loss of the valuable cargo which
she carried"

oline allotments.
According to w. L. Leonard. key
volunteer worker in the Mount Ver-
non district of the county, national
OPA officials asked State represen-
tatives why they had not made an
attempt to meet with the board.
State officials replied, however,
that they had been told by Maj. w
Walter Vaughan, member of the
board, that there was no point to
their coming to Fairfax for such a
purpose" Mr.. Leonard said.
Maj. Vaughan denied last night
that he had made such statement.
He explained he had offered to meet
representatives of the State OPA in
Alexandria and take them to Fairfax
in his car, but was refused after
State officials said there is nothing

did not intend to meet with the
Fairfax board.
The regulations are on the
books he said, and there is Moth
ing this Office can do to change
them
Mr.. Leonard said he had delayed
calling mass meeting of motorists
in his district for fear it would be
construed as an attack on the OPA.

alton would be corrected If brought
to the attention of Price Admins
traitor Brown.
Meanwhile, County Ration Board
efforts to ease restrictions in gaso-
line allotments through conferences
with State OPA officials are at a
stanGstill.

Former State Senator John w
Rust, chairman of the County Ra-
ton Board, said he was "dismayed"
at the plight of the people of Fair
fax County" He said he did not
know what immediate steps the
board might take in an attempt to
get adequate allotments of gasoline
for motorists to continue to make
a living.
unless the OPA regulations are
amended to fit conditions in the
country" Senator Rust said. Il do
not know what will happen to Fair
fax residents"
Harry Caravati, district OPA Or
ganization director, said the Rich
mond Office received several tele-
phone calls yesterday from Fairfax
County motorists, mostly Govern
mert workers, complaining about
cuts in gasoline allotments.
MI. Caravati said motorists wish
ing to protest allotments must file
an appeal with the Richmond office
He said appeals will be considered
in the light of OPA regulations"
Mr.. Shelburne said one Fairfax
motorist told State OPA officials he
would protest to the Governor and
to the members of Congress from
his district and to others until he
received more gasoline. He said
from facts learned over the tele-
phone it was revealed that this mo-
tcrist might have BEEN eligible
for a c book, but had not filed the
proper application.
