Seaman Held for Carrying
Live Bomb in Luggage

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 2.-Charged
with carrying in his luggage a live
incendiary bomb of German origin
when travelling from Russia to the
United States on a United Nations
vessel. a 24-year- old merchant sea-
man was arrested today by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The seaman, identified by the
FBI as Fred Thanias Miller of Phila-
delphia, said he bought the bomb in
Archangel, Russia, as souvenir.
Miller specifically is accused of
violating a section of the Federal
criminal code which prohibits the
carrying of incendiary bombs or ex-
plosives on board vessels without
notifying the ships officers. The
bomb was found by Coast Guard and
customs men who examined his lug
gage as the large ship docked re-
Gently.
Miller was travelling as a passen-
ger on the ship.
The Chemical Warfare Service re-
ported to the FBI today that the
bomb was "in perfect condition and
had a detonator which worked nor
mally," P. E. Foxworth, FBI agent
In charge, said.

0PA Is Again Ready
To Accept Requests
For B and CCards
Drastic Curbs Denied;
Travelling SoIesmen
Lose Extra Gasoline

The District Office of Price
Administration last night an
nounced its rationing boards
we're again ready to accept ap-
plications for supplemental B
and c gasoline rations.
Since the gasoline holiday of
two weeks ago, the boards have not
been permitted tG accept such APP
plications. The value of B and &C.
coupons was cut from four to three
gallons at that time "A coupons had
been cut similarly several weeks
earlier.
Whitney Leary, District OPA di-
rector pointed out that the maxi
mum mileage on b coupons had
been cut to 378 miles from the pre-
vious 470 miles. He further stated
that motorists seeking to obtain
C. coupons would have to prove that
any mileage in excess of 1913 miles
was definitely in the interest of the
war effort.
No Drastic Limitations.
Until A, B and G coupons were
reduced in value from four to three
gallons, the theory was that the
maximum mileage allowable under
B coupon was 470. This was CAL
culated as follows: Four A coupons,
each good for four gallons, produc-
ing a total Of 16 gallons or $40 miles
at the OPA'S standard of Is miles
per gallon; one-third of the maxi
mum of 16 B coupons, each good for
four gallons, for mileage of 800.
The sum of the A and B mileage
was $50.
Of this, 80 miles was regarded
as being for family" or pleasure
driving, leaving maximum essen
tial mileage of 40 Essential mile
age above this required a c card.
Under the new setup, essential mile
age in excess of 379 per month must
come under c book.

Victory Congress-
Prepares 10 Face
TumuItuous Session
Members Are Hopeful
They Will Be on Hand
To Help Write Peace
BY the Associated Press

by the Associated Press.
The Seventy Eighth Congress,
facing a critical war year, will
convene Wednesday with high
hopes of seeing victory won and
of sharing in the tremendous
task of writing a lasting peace
before It's two-year life span
ends.
Behind the political jockeying
that appears inevitable because of
the closest division in Democratic
and Republican membership since
1888, there already has been quiet
maneuvering among those Of con-
flicting nationalist and information
alist views for positions of power.
particularly on the Foreign Affairs
Committees.
There they can hope to influence
the Executive in his peace treaty
negotiations and, in the case of
Senators, play part in the accept
ance or rejection of final peace
terms.
Must Vote Funds.
Immediate attention enters,
however, on the battle of the nu-
merically strongest Republican
minority in 10 years to bring about
new independence of Congress
from the Executive. This may have
far-reaching effect on major issues.
In helping to fight the war, Con-
gress' first job will be to provide the
appropriations to keep the United
Nations world-encompassing battle
lines supplied with weapons, mate
rails and men.
Congress already has appropriated
100000 0000 for the war.
major portion of which is committed
but unspent. If administration ex-
pendlture estimates of 100000 OOO.-
900 yearly for military purposes are
correct. it will have to provide much
more for long-range commitments.
The economy bloc is resurgent,
however, and more critical atten-
ton is sure to be given to how the
money is being spent by Govern
ment agencies swollen with war;
time personnel. President Roose-
welt already has assigned to Con-
gress the task of deciding where to
make cuts in non-war activities.
Taxation Problems Painful.
Along with the new appropria-
tons apparently must come addi-
tional taxes. Congress may write
its own tax law and delve into new
proposals for Government financing,
possibly through some form of COM
pulsory savings.
Taxation always is painful sub
ject, but price control and ration
ing seems likely to provide an even
bigger headache for the legislators
There may be little actual law-mak-
ing on this subject, but no one ex-
poets food, gasoline, oil and other
rationing to be carried out without
continuing complaints and investi-
cations. The rubber shortage also
is a dark hangover from previous
months.
With food production a critical
problem, determined farm bloc
will renew its demands for higher
prices, either through a revision of
the complicated parity formulas or
by other methods. The question of
subsidies for food producers or proc
essors also is in the offing.
