Pleasure Driving Ban
Legal and Necessary
Brown Gives Opinion
In Teleerums to OPA
Regional OfficioIs

Price Administrator Prentiss
Brown asserted today there is no
doubt, in my judgment, as to either
the necessity or the legality" Of
the prohibition against automobile
pleasure driving.
Mr.. Brown made the statement
in telegramssto OPA regional ad-
in New York, Boston,
Cleveland and Atlanta. Washing
ton is in the New York OPA region.
In his telegram, the price admin
iStrator said:
The Congress expressly provided,
in the event of shortage, that
commodities shall be rationed upon
such conditions as may be necessary
or appropriate in the public interest
and to promote national defense.
The rationing of gasoline upon
condition that it not be used for
pleasure driving, In this time Of
great shortage. unquestionably Is in
the public interest and will aid the
most effective prosecution of the
war.
Il take this opportunity also to
express my thanks to the public
and all those State and local off,
Gals who have co-operated 50
Fundamentally with you and your
staff in securing compliance with
this most necessary wartime re-
striction."
Mr.. Brown, at his first press con-
ference January 20, replied to re-
porters' questions by saying he had
not studied the question of the

positive answer.

mo other nation in Europe but
Germany is in position to destroy
Bolshevism. Germany has become
the guarantor of Europe's fate. It
Is madness to believe it possible to
come to arrangements with Boil
shevism. The issue at stake is
whether the German people will
be annihilated or whether the fu-
ture will belong to it.
Every German soldier carries
within himself the law that he has
to die when Germany's life makes
his death necessary"
Threatening reprisals for today's
and other Allied air attacks on Ger
many, the Reichsmarshal said:
"One day the battle in the east
will come to an end, when the last
powerrofa Soviet resistance will have
been broken. Then the Luftwaffe
will be free to retaliate for what has
been done to German. women and
children. I. shall remember the
facts and be sufficiently hard to re-
turn the blows"
Concluding, he promised, that
"the Fuehrer will lead us to the
greatest Of all German victories"
New Draft Decree.
Even the flags which gave Berlin
and all Germany a gala air on
previous anniversaries were ordered
furled by Propaganda Minister
Joseph Goebbels. The German
radio, usually alive on January 80
with bright music, happy tidings
from the front and bombastic ora
tons, was pouring out details of the
new decree drafting all men from
is to IS and all women from II to
As.
A Moscow broadcast, quoting
Stockholm advices, said Heinrich
Himmler, Gestapo chieftain, had
been designated general commits
sioner in charge of the new Ger
man total mobilization" program.
The melancholy tone of the Ger
man press, which has been pre-
pairing the Germans for sorry news
in recent days. was indicated In
Stockholm dispatches quoting an
article in the Frankfurter Zeitung.
e Appealing to all Germans to get be-
hind the war machine, the paper
said: Some must offer blood, others
sweat" and added that defeat
would transform Germany into a
museum such as Greece after the
Roman conquest"
War Climax Held Near.
Fritz Sauckel was quoted in a
DNB broadcast from Berlin as say
ing that its not Stalingrad. but
the fact that the war is reaching a

ization of all Germans"
Economics Minister Walther Funk
was quoted in another broadcast as
announcing that many businesses

Bad flying weather held aerial

that Italian torpedo planes had
sunk British destroyer OF the

plants, he got a green light" to
push through larger portion of
plants, to produce butadiene and
styrene, the two raw materials for
Dumas rubber, which forms 50 per
cent of the entire rubber program.
With this additional help on plants
for raw materials, officials said it
would be possible to complete a
larger portion of the overall rubber

Mr.. LETTERS, questioned as to his
views on the outcome of his long

their desks in Temporary Building D

Fc- most of their lunch hour the

welded picks and shovels to help
a District street crew clear the in
tersection of ice.
The idea of giving aid to unfor-
tunate motorists had been germinat-

Joseph Tonkin. chief of the OPA's
marine gasoline unit. Today he
suggested the shovel-wielding to
other officials and found them will

Some Passersby Skeptical.
Some passersby who watched as
the OPA employees Clipped and
shoveled ice had a kind word to
say about them. Others were OPEN

kibitzer who remarked: who do
those guys think they're fooling?"
At one stage. moving van passed
and the policeman at the intersec-
ton ordered: Everybody out of the
street that don't belong out here"

THE streets are taking a terrific
beating" the director declared.
They are like a plowed field and
the impact on them by the sliding
of cars and heavy trucks from high
to low spots is bound to cause SER

He said old streets and those
which have not been resurfaced for
years will suffer most and that it
may be necessary to put entirely new
surfaces on some of them instead of
patches. He added that his great

Potomac River bridges, which he
fears may be damaged by severe
