MUNICIPAL GOLF
 COURSE TO OPEN
Members of Park Board Interested in Conducting
 Experiment This Season

Although tho previous announce. Ment of the park board members was that the municipal golf course would not be opened this year, 1t was divulged last night that the course will he opened ia several weeks to experiment with situation on hand.
 The park boards reason for de- string to close the course is tho lack of transportation, lack of man. power which results with too few people to play. This means insuf. ficient returns to take care of eX- penseS.
 During tho last park board meet Ing doubt was voiced that 1t would prove profitable to open the golf course this year. The question was referred to Q committee con. sisting of President John P. Fl. ton, Sec'y. Thomas r, Moore and Park Supt. James Curtin.
 Other sources revealed that the board will experiment with an open- Ing to obtain factual results. If, af- ter 6 satisfactory interval, 1t is evl- dent that tho course cannot be op- erated, 1t will be closed. However, If receipts meet expenses, 1t Is most likely that the course will remain open on & day to day basis.

TIRE PURCHASE
 FORMS CHECKED
Grade 3 Certificates Not Acceptable to Dealers
 Latter Explains

Although the ration board Is is. suing grade 3 certificates for pur- chase of "war tires" car owners have reported inability to obtain them, Tire dealers state they will not ac- oept the grade 3 certificates because manufacturers require number 2 forms in refllllng depleted stocks of the "war rubber" and as result grade 3 certificates holders are is- sued only used tires,
 Since determination of tire pur- chase forms is based on mileage covered, car owners arc unable to exchange their grade 3 forms for grade 2 and must do without the type of tire provided for them under rationing regulations, Because of the current sale practice the grade 3 rubber in effect takes the value of grade 3, but further tightening of rationlng rules is expected to effect o remedy to tho situation,

United fress Stan Correspondent
 Washington, March os-(Upl-The "ofR-agaln.onsagAin" prohibition on sliced bread today has all the ear- marks of bureaucratic thriller.
 The mystery over "who dunnlt" in the first place is surpassed only by the confusion in high places and the pointing of fingers at tho next guy or any one within pointing dis- tance.
 Tne order against tho sale of sliced bread waS handed down be- tween the Christmas and New Years holiday.
 Since then there has been inoreas- ing agitation for lifting of the ban, accompanied by housewife raids on department and hardware stores which cleaned out the available sup- ply of breadknives,
 Then yesterday tho ban suddenly was lifted and the bread situation is right where 1t was last Christmas,
 Reporters trying to find tho answer today found themselves going in Q circle.
 The once of Price Administration put "the baby" on the agriculture departments doorstep. An agricul- ture spokesman said 1t really was the baking industry's Idea,
 Another food administration otil. oial named tho War Production Board as the father of the idea, WIPE ottelals said so many things have happened in the past two months that they couldn't remember who started the no-Slieing idea,
 Congressman appeared to he ex- Ompt from this controversy, ono of them said, well, It's too early to Do certain, but to date they can't tic that one on us,"
 In contrast to the silence of the sponsor of the Idea Is the modest clamor of many who are willing to accept responsibility for having tho order rescinded.
 Here Is the background of the order;
 November, loA2--The food indus- try branch of WIPE had the Idea that economies in bread distrihu- ton were possible to conserve such vital war materials as paper, para tn and steel. Later the same month the baking industry advisory eoun. ell, comprising representatives oi the baking trade, was asked to think about economies,
 November 6-PreSident Roosevelt issued executive order No, e20i Mak- ing Secretary of Agriculture Claude 10. WlckNrd WAr-food administrator md tsanferring tho WIPE food see- tion to agriculture,
 December i0-The baking indus- try advisory council "approved elimination of slieing along with other economies to offset higher flour prices,
 A week lNter-repreSen Of agriculture, tho opA, WIPE, and tho Federal Trade Commission met te consider the suggestion, One of the representatives couldn't remember anyone who spoke either for oi against bread Slleing
 December S0-Wiekard ordered the baking economies which, in addi..on Go no pre.slleing for home consump- ton included 6iseontinuance oi pleGups of unsold bread and single Instead of double wrappers, January i.--Food officials stuffed cotton in their ears against the roar protests from housewives, groc- a some bakers, hotels and res' tAurants.
