Raleigh, April l2.-North Carolina

When rubber and price adminis-
traitors, CHE latter controlling gaSu-

limit. the governor did not have
power to enforce that request After
passage Of the war powers bill he
has that power and almost any other

time, truck and bus operators made
sufficient showing To Joseph Il.
Eastman, defense transportation adj
ministrator, to incline him to their
position that Il 10 or I5-milr speed
might be more economical all the
way around.
Eastman was in North Carolina
last week and Governor Bruushtun
talked with him, with somewhat I'M
satisfactory result. The governor en-
phatically does not propose to have
two speeds; II trucks are To travel
10 to IS miles. 50 are passenger cars.
He is waiting for the federal agcn-

and he told newspaper folk he would
try to cooperate. II the irdcralS fail

Presently the situation remains
about this way: no North Carolina
