Of point rationing' is for each

the point values of each item,
just what it wants to get with

Ordering may still be done by
telephone and coupons given to
delivery boys. But whether you
go to the store or order by
phone, don't tear out the cou-

During March, you may use
all the blue stamps which bear

them like coins. For 16 point

Don't try to cash the red

day faced a week of legislative
action fraught with controversy
and potential headaches for ad-
ministration leaders.
Crowded into the program on

are measures vitality affecting
labor, men of draft age. the av-
iation industry, the food produc-
ton effort and the war and lend
lease programs.
While the farm bloc sought

Democratic leader Mccormack
of Massachusetts, scheduled for
House action today a bill aimed
at putting Army or Navy uni
forms on Navy yard workers
who habitually absent them
selves from their jobs.
REPORT MALINGERERS
Approved by the Naval AT
fairs Committee, the anti-absen-
tee bill would require Navy yard
bosses to report to local draft
boards, for possible reclassifica-
ton, the names of men absent
from work without authorize
ton. 1t was expected to be the
forerunner of broader legislation
affecting all war industries.
Chairman Vinson of the Ma
val committee announced that
Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker, who
has been critical of the progress
of war production, would be
asked to testify on the subject.
The views of Secretary of the
Navy Knox and Secretary OF La
Dor Perkins also will be sought.
With a close fight in prospect,
the House will devote Tuesday
to legislation for standing COM
mittee on civil aviation, pro-
posal endorsed by the Republi-
can minority and opposed by
many prominent Democrats.
LABOR RACKET BILL
At the same time, the Rules
Committee will vote on the
Hobbs anti-racketeering bill,
which would subject labor or
CARNATIONS to penalties provid-
ed by a 1884 Act for interference
with interstate shipping. The bill
has drawn the outspoken oppo-
sition of organized labor, which
was expected to open second

a petition to discharge the judic-
larry committee from jurisdiction
over the bill.
A new Naval appropriation

the lend-lease program are ex-
pected to reach the House floor
during the latter part of the
week.
Slated for rules consideration
later too is the Kilday bill to
give draft deferment priorities
to men with families and to put
draft quotas on a statewide in
stead of local board basis.
