CALIFORNIA; BEEF

Brown was remarking on the
army's determination TO take the
best grade of beef.
"Of course" he said, "you
have never had very good
grade OF beef I'm California"
That brought the whoop, but
Brown was determined.
"Never In my life," he in
sisted, did ever have steak
In Los Angeles that I enjoyed"
did you ever try San Fran
CISCO" asked Rep. tt o m a
Rolph of that city.
"Neyer thought so much of
the steaks there, either" re-
torted Brown, firmly.
The Californians were baffled
and silent for a moment.
'Will you have dinner with
me sometime at Nevada City,"
ventured Rep. Harry L. Engle-
bright of that place.
ACCEPTS INVITATION
Glad to-" said Brown po-
litely. but in a tone indicating
he had heard the steaks in Ne
vada City were much like those
of Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco.
There was another panied 81
lence. which Brown, former sena
tor from Michigan. finally filled
and with enthusiasm.

The valentines themselves have

There, gentlemen, they have

xanten Says WPB Bars
now-RemovaI Items
5000 Unspent Due to
Lock Of D. G. Priorities

A $4,000 congressional appropri-
alton for additional equipment to
handle snow clearance here has gone
unspent because Of the War Produc-
ton Boards reluctance to grant pri-
critics, William A. Xanten, super
visor Of city refuse, disclosed last
night.
The Refuse Department operates
the largest truck fleet in the city,
but many Of its vehicles are OF the
vintage Of the 1905" and should be
replaced, he told the Cleveland Park
Businessmen,s Association meeting
In the Broadmoor Apartments.
A similar complaint came from r..
D. Voshall, an assistant chief engi-
neer Of the Capital Transit Co., who
said there was no relief In sight for
the city's transportation problem
until the Government agencies in
volved decided to release another 100
buses.
Commenting on the recent ice and
sleet storm, Mr.. Xanten said he had
never before experienced such a
storm. He said city and transit ON
Gals did not receive from the
Weather Bureau a forecast OF the
type Of storm that actually struck
the. city.
I'VE have to find a way to handle
ice." Mr.. Xanten said. In answer
to critics, who Mr.. Xanten said
wanted to know why Washington
could not clear streets as is done in
New York City, he pointed out that
New York had $34, OO0, 900 budget
for the task, while Washington had
only fraction of that amount.
The city oflicial said that, accord
ingly, only the business areas can be
cleaned In snow and sleet storms,
and a total Of 25 miles of city streets
cleared. During the last storm, city
employees worked from IL to q hours
a day for more than three days, he
reported.
And some people would like to
have the streets and sidewalks
cleared six hours after the storm is
over" Mr.. Xanten commented.

He got the idea of the ever nor
NAL granary from a book on Con-
fucian economics, Vice President
Wallace today told guests at a
luncheon given by the Institute Of
Pacific Relations in the Maynower
Hotel.
'One night in the Des Moines
Public Library" he said, II came
upon a book on that subject by a
Columbia University scholar. I read
about the constantly normal gran
ary,' and I said to myself If I ever
had q chance I am going to put
that into effect"
The Vice President said to Mrs.
T. v. Soong and two Chinese gen.
erals present that I'VE are living
and waiting for the day when there
will be enough hundreds Of planes
on the mainland of China to strike
at that important part Of Asia, the

Utah, one-time Mormon missionary
in Japan, followed Mr.. Wallace He
recalled that the normal granary
idea was that of 18th century
agrarian leader, Wang An-Shih

he said, but Wang lost his head,

Recapping Of Tires
Without Restrictions
To Start Next Month
Supply Of Reclaimed
Rubber Held Adequate
To Lift Rutioninq

Every one will be able to have
tires recapped without ration
certificates or other restrictions
under a plan to be put into effect
around March l, it was learned
today.
The sirnplification Of tire ration
ing regulations has been worked out
by Rubber Administrator William
Jeffers and Price Administrator
Prentiss Brown.
Under the new system, all motor
lists who need camelback recaps will
be allowed to drive into a retreading
establishment and have the work
done.
At present, it is necessary for
motorists to 60 to tire inspector
and get certiflcation that a recap is
necessary. Then the motorist must
go to rationing board and get a
certificate to present to the shop
which does the work.
Mr.. Jeffers felt that more gasoline
and rubber was being wasted in this
process than was being saved by
rationing. Since the supply OF
Comeback material is adequate, 1t
was decided to lift the rationing.
The rubber used for recapping
tires is reclaimed. Motorists can get
between 5000 and 10000 miles ct
driving on a recapped tire.
Many drivers have been wearing
their tires down beyond the point
where they can be recapped. AS a
result. 1T has been necessary to issue
such drivers the new victory" tires,
made of reclaimed rubber.
These tires are no more satisfac-
tory than recaps, but more re-
claimed rubber is needed to make
them.
Mr.. Je1ers assured Mr.. Brown
that the supply Of reclaimed rubber
was adequate for such a program.
1t was agreed that since all auto
mobiles In the country are under
"mileagle rationing," there was lit
tie chance that motorists would
abuse the opportunity to receive re-
caps without restrictions.
